    We ate here with some Yelp buddies at their suggestion and it was a great choice. The Curry Lounge is in Little India which is really cool to hang out at. The ambiance is cool, the service splendid. All the workers were helpful, courteous, and efficient. The food was great. The masala and butter chicken were super good. Definitely give them a try.

    This place was pretty busy, so the food took a while, I got it to go. I got the chana masala and pani puri, which were both very good, although I've never had pani puri before this so I don't have anything else to compare it to to decide if its above average or not... The chana masala is also pretty spicy & forgot to order a bread to go with it, but it was still good. I appreciate the fact that the vegan options were clearly labeled as well.

    7/21/2026 Second time here! Ordered take out via phone order. Found their phone number and menu on Google and Google Reviews. Curry Lounge posted their full menu there. AMRITSARI KULCHA First time trying this type of flat bread. It is a North Indian stuffed flat bread. Originated from Amritsar, Punjab. It is a favorite street food. This is usually eaten with Chole, a spicy chickpea curry. The amitsari kulcha had mostly mashed potatoes and some paneer cheese. Various herbs in it, lots of herbs in it. It took me a bit to adjust to the herbacious flavors. This was reheated in the toaster oven until slightly crispy and it was delicious! You must reheat before you eat! This went really well with the Punjabi Butter Chicken I ordered. SAMOSA Flaky dough stuffed with spiced potatoes and peas. Delicious and this was my second time ordering it! I think this will be my go to place for potato samosas! And yes, reheat in toaster oven before consumption! PUNJABI BUTTER CHICKEN A popular Indian dish originating in Punjab. Tender chicken pieces in tomato-based sauce with butter and cream. Chicken marinated in spiced yogurt mix and cooked in a tandoor and grilled. The chicken has different pieces, such as legs, thighs and breast meat. All have bones in them. But there were about 4-5 pieces of chicken. They ask for your preference of spice levels, so I got medium spice. It was spicy! Spice lingers on your tongue and in your stomach too! Made my own basmati rice at home, so did not order it, but you definitely need the basmati rice to soak up all the flavors of the butter chicken! So delicious to eat with the aromatic, sweet basmati rice! This was also delicious with flat bread, but I absolutely loved it with basmati rice. NAAN (PLAIN) Wanted naan, so I ordered it plain. This was not oily and you can taste the ghee. The naan wasn't even in thickness. Parts of the naan that were thinner were crispy and thicker were fluffy and soft. It had very little herbs, so it had a clean, ghee flavor. CUSTOMER SERVICE Staff who took my order over the phone was kind, patient and spoke clearly and slowly. He made sure that my order was correct. All my orders were received and well packaged with saran wrap to ensure the food stays hot and does not spill. They even added utensils too, which I appreciate. My food was not fully prepared at the set time, however, they gave me a courtesy call to let me know. But I let them know it wasn't a big deal because I was also running late. Lol. Location is far from where I live, but if I am in the area, I am definitely returning! Delicious food, good service all around! A very happy customer! Cannot wait to try new dishes in the near future!

    Great Indian food in Artesia! Ever since moving to San Jose, I've been craving Indian food when I visit home, and Curry Lounge did not disappoint. We ordered two combo plates, which were more than enough for two people. The portions were generous! The butter chicken was lovely, and it definitely leans into the tomato flavors. However, the two showstoppers for me were the chicken tikka masala and vegetable samosas. They were incredibly flavorful! I also ordered the Masala Chai, which was affordable and tasted authentic. Service was quick and polite. This place is definitely appropriate for a casual lunch or dinner if you're stopping by the Artesia area. Only tough part is finding parking, but the downtown parking lot behind it had technical difficulties when we went, so we parked for free.

    Family-owned halal Indian Punjabi fine-dining with butter chicken, biryani, lamb, goat, seafood, and Indo-Chinese plates. Warm attentive service in a cozy room. They also were super hip and even had music videos playing while we ate. First time trying Balti Chicken and I will never forget it EVERRR !! SO FIRE !

    The food here is ALWAYS amazing, i love it every time i come here. The service is always great as well, there's a solid crew there every time, I definitely have favorites haha. The environment is very warm and welcoming. I love that there's something new on the tv every time i come. Side note: Perfect for romantic dates or friend dates :)

    Went here couple times and they never disappoint! Love me some pappadam so I always get that. Their punjbi chicken is the best one imo, so gotta have that one too! All the staff are friendly and nice, they always recommend the best ones. I love their decorations using vibrant color so u won't miss this place from outside too. They only have street parking, so it's a hit or miss.

    I had been wanting to try some Indian food for the longest, so my boyfriend took me for my birthday!! The service was decent as they did take like 20 minutes to take down our order even though it wasn't busy at all... the food was really good, the garlic nann was chefs kiss . The butter chicken (spicy) was bomb and the mango lassi was to die for according to the both of us. I didnt really like the texture of the samosas, but thats about it.

    One of Curry Lounge's specialties, the Amritsari Kulcha with Chole is a popular North Indian dish. Often consumed for breakfast, Amritsari Kulcha is a stuffed unleavened flatbread, traditionally cooked in a tandoor oven. It consists of spiced mashed potatoes, paneer, yogurt, mixed vegetables & onions. Topped with a slathering of butter or ghee. Never served by itself, Amritsari Kulcha is paired with Chole (chickpea curry). For dipping, raita (yogurt) & tamarind chutney complete the meal. I've had Amritsari Kulcha at many establishments in Little India, and Curry Lounge does it the best! An order is large and a generous amount of food, that'll keep you full for the rest of the day. Regarding the remodel, the restaurant is now more spacious and accommodating for more guests. The murals on the walls & decorations add to the appeal. I've been a regular at Curry Lounge, since they opened, and will continue to be so. Highly recommend!

    When we're in the mood for Indian food, we know a trip to Artesia is in order. The day we came to Curry Lounge, we trusted our fellow Yelpers to guide us to a place with good lamb Rogan Josh. We went with Curry Lounge and we both left as fans. I'm not sure if they have a dedicated parking area but the few times we've been here, we've been able to find street parking fairly easily. We were greeted and seated immediately. We got our waters and menus and decided to get Jeeera rice (we recently learned about the benefits of cumin seeds so we were all about this rice), garlic naan, butter chicken, and Rogan Josh. We received our food quickly and we were so hungry we dove right in. We devoured our entrees within minutes. All of the proteins were incredibly tender. The naan was perfectly garlicky, butter chicken had a nice kick, and the jeera rice perfectly complimented the dishes. Everything was delicious and service was attentive and friendly!

    Garlic Naan
    Cedric J.

    Completely understand why it's rated as the Best Indian Food in Artesia on Yelp! Butter Chicken [ ] Juicy and well-spiced [ ] Creamy and deeply fulfilling Saag Paneer [ ] My favorite dish and reminds me of the way I'm used to it being prepared in The Bay Area [ ] Loved the larger chunks of paneer and it's silky yet dense texture Garlic Naan [ ] Warm, toasty, flagrant with a charred fluffy bite I'll be sure to return and left with a to-go order for lunch the next day lol

    Methi Malai Mutter

    Currry lounge got their classic dishes to the point. We tried few different dishes and everything was full of flavors and tasted excellent. Bone-in butter chicken was the highlight for me. I have had tried many other places but theirs so far I can highly rate it! Saag+Makki Roti was delicious and cooked to its perfection. You don't find this dish at many restaurants, it was cooked so deliciously and I highly recommend it. Methi Malai and seekh kabab were delicious as well. I highly recommend this place and I will be going back to try other food they have to offer.

    Butter Chicken and paneer tikka masala

    Before I get to the food let me say the restaurant it self is very overwhelming with things going on. They had two TVs with different shows/movies going on and additionally music going on. The space is already packed with families enjoying dinner and talking so it can be a bit much. Additionally be careful to sit under the AC it drips and might get on the food. I was weary of the place since it has B inspection grading on the window but overall the food was good. I do feel like the flavors were a little muted but so I knocked it down from great to good. We got medium for the Tikka and it was not spicy at all. Heads up place offers discount if bill is paid in cash.

Everything they ordered was delicious. I sort of third wheel myself to their dinner plans so they ordered before I arrived. I'm honestly not a fan of curry but they ordered 3 types of curry and I loved all of them! & the Naan -- OMGGGG. They ordered the garlic naan and 10/10. Sooo good. The inside is clean and well decorated. Lighting is dimmed which I love! The waiters were attentive but also gave us space -- does that make sense? They were quick & welcoming. Overall great experience. I'll be bringing my husband next time. Spacious parking, there's also parking in the back of the building & street parking.

    Update as of August 16th, 2026…read more We haven't been there in a few months, so we decided to take my mom. We were welcomed by new staff there. Let me tell you, the staff before was fine, but this staff now is excellent. We had the opportunity to meet Aditya, who was our server, and he was incredible, along with this young lady, who is probably one of the sweetest waitresses we've met. They had a few other people working that were very friendly, and going to the restaurant is even more enjoyable. Food is always going to be good there, and they are very consistent. India Restaurant is our go to restaurant in Artesia Service is fast Food is very tasty Chicken Tikka is my favorite out of all Indian restaurants I have been to Keema samosas very good Bindi, Naan, Tandoori chicken is all good We have never had a bad meal in the last 20 years we have been going Don't do the buffet
