Chicken Tikka Masala
Marcy M.

My first time eating Indian food, everything was flavorful. We had the rice with raisins & nuts, (I'm so sorry I didn't remember the name) garlic naan, chicken tikka masala and butter chicken. Garlic naan is freshly made and it's so delicious! The portion sizes were good too.

Even though Simi Valley has not more than a handful of Indian restaurants, there are representatives in this class that deserve a visit. One of these eateries is Indian Haweli, on Los Angeles Avenue. It maybe the only Indian cuisine location that has a lunch buffet ($14.99) in Simi. The dining area is small, but well appointed, with simple decor. There was one staff member that was maintaining the area and keeping the food well stocked. That should not be a deterrent. Service was friendly, informative and professional. If anything, some of the lunch buffet items were drying out. So additional assembly of these dishes with more liquid and/or keeping them covered could change the landscape and optics. See my pictures for the offerings. What stood out for me was the two appetizers (Aloo Tikki and Samosas), the latter having a different flavor. There are several selections of chicken and vegetables. Accompaniments are Naan, Rice, Salad, Raita, Chutneys (both Mint and tamarind), pappar and Indian desserts (that include Gulab Jamoo). Wine and beer is also available.

Came today with a friend for lunch right when they opened. There was already a few people there eating. I like to come on Tues and Sunday's because they have curried goat. My favorite! They also had a great eggplant dish. I can never eat more than one plate, but service is always great. Was a nice 1.5 hour lunch to catch up with my friend. Love that it's so close to home too.

Decent food but unfortunately they have raised the prices of everything on the menu by at least 30%. Far too expensive.

We decided to give Taj Chaat another chance. Sadly, not much has changed since my original visit…read more It was actually a pretty similar experience. To start the gentleman who took our order was very friendly. We ordered Samosas as an appetizer and 2 main dishes. The tandoori chicken dish came out very early for my girlfriend. The samosas and other main dish came out about 10 minutes later. I ordered the chicken curry this time and asked for spicy. Same again, zero spice. Not even a medium spice. There was literally no heat added. Same happened with my girlfriend. She had asked for medium spice on her Tandoori Chicken dish and there was no heat. To be fair the Tandoori chicken was delicious. Very juicy and flavorful. The curry dish was relatively bland. (Again, any amount of heat may have made a difference). Mango lassis were again very good. But not really enough reason for us to make a 3rd visit. It's unfortunate, because the location is so close to my house.

Pretty good Indian food but expect lots of butter/ghee in the food!!…read more My friend and I dropped by for dinner Saturday evening around 7:30 pm. To our surprise, there was just one other group there even though it should've been peak dining hours. Because of this, we didn't have high expectations for the food, but surprisingly it turned out okay. The space is nice and big with both table and booth seating. It looked like there was a private room for events off to one side as well. Since it's a chaat place, we got some chaat as well as a curry. We shared the following: Pav bhaji ($10.99) Paneer kathi roll ($10.99) Chicken tikka masala ($17.99) Plain roti and naan ($2.99 + $3.49) Out of everything, the pav bhaji was our favorite. The bhaji was drier than usual (usually it's a bit more liquid), but the flavor was good. There was also a strong taste of butter/ghee, more than what I'm used to, so it's definitely a very rich dish here, especially with the extra chunk of butter they serve on top. Too bad they only serve two pav by default, as at least 3, maybe 4, would've been good to go with the amount of bhaji provided. I only took a bite of the kathi roll, but it was a bit too sweet for me personally. However, my friend liked it and said that the paneer tasted very fresh and soft. The chicken tikka masala was pretty standard. Nothing to write home about. We were pleasantly surprised by the flavors here. It's not super close to where we live but we might come back to try some of the other chaat!

Easily the best Indian food my wife and I have ever had. The restaurant itself is very well…read moredecorated and cozy, with excellent service. Recommend anything on their menu, it's all great.

The "Taste of Punjab", in Moorpark, was an over 20-mile one way trip for me from the SFV. If you…read morelike North Indian food, it is my opinion that the state of Punjab in India (and I have spent time there), provides food preparations that are a notch above the rest of its Indian state counterparts (e.g. Uttarkhand, Rajasthan, Himachal Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh). So I called the restaurant to fine tune. Their lunch buffet was only on Fridays. The spread would only contain 3 meat selections, all of them chicken (really, no variety?) and only 3 vegetable choices (really, is that all?) Then an appetizer, salad components and condiments. There would be rice and Naan too. A meager set of choices for a $15.99 buffet? Yet, the restaurant was enticing. Hence the pull, to taste their version, of Punjabi food. That sealed the deal for me and I was on my way to pay a visit, and eat. As expected, the choices were limited. There was chicken tikka, chicken tandoori and chicken curry. For vegetables, aloo bhegan (potatoes and eggplant), peas paneer (peas with sautéed Indian cheese cubes) and dahl (lentil curry). The Naan was not brought fresh table-side, but delivered to the hot case. Still, it was soft and wonderful, actually well executed, had good chew, cut into medium sized pieces. Rice came out in small portions in a bowl and was not dry (unlike other buffets). For appetizers, they had one choice, good sized samosas with a thin wrapping (also unlike other buffets) and a simple ,but very tasty and moist potato filling. They were truly fantastic (I had 4 of them, a first for me!). That too, came out, as needed. Like it should be. For me, this is also a sign of thoughtful food management, to provide just prepared items, to enhance freshness, cut down on wastage. On the condiment side though, there were disappointments. The tamarind chutney was watery and their mint chutney thick, and from a bottle. Not fresh. Raita was creamy, with body and wholesome. What was striking at the Taste of Punjab, was the unmistakable high quality and culinary prowess of the chef(s). Every dish oozed with freshness, aroma, rich flavor and an intoxicating blend of well married spices and taste. The three chicken dishes were tender, with soft meat having a perfect texture to satisfy. Overall, every selection on the buffet was unique because, it felt and tasted so different. High class, is the best way to describe it. I was really amazed and blown away. Was also pleased, that my relentless hunger, curiosity and the lengthy drive here to Moorpark, had borne sweet fruit. It was a reward. Definitely, a Punjabi lunch buffet to remember, for a very long time.

They have proper Indian cuisine, that includes vegetarian and non-vegetarian. My favorite dishes are their Lamb curry, Chicken Masala, and other chicken dishes. They have different types of Naan but I really just like the plain. They offer lunch specials with very good portion and prices. I really enjoy their small sauces, it's made with plenty of herbs, very fresh and aromatic. They offer a few dessert and special soft drinks. My favorite drinks are Chai( fragrant and very hot) and mango lassi. The restaurant is decorated with bright and warm colors. It's an instant mood lift. We usually get seated right away and are offered our own choice of seating. Their seats are well cushioned and very comfortable. All servers are very helpful whether they are taking in orders, refilling water, clearing the plate or giving us the check. It's a very welcoming place with many welcoming people. Diners are very nice too. It's cozy and quiet while every table enjoy their time here. I recommend this restaurant to all who enjoy Indian food and hospitality and a beautiful dining environment.

As an Indian, living In LA for close to 5 years- it's super hard to find authentic Indian, in terms of flavors and freshness. I live in the city and I would drive 40 minutes to come eat here again! Even when it comes to flavors- they are actual Indian flavor profiles respective to each dish. If youve been to areas where there is a large Indian population, you will typically see Indian restaurants that have great flavors and great food... but In LA you don't see that, until I ate here!!! I am incredibly happpy to find this place! I love this location! The service was great and very attentive, the owner was even onsite on a weekday so you can tell how much they care about their service and food quality! I will also add the place is very clean and the ambiance is still modern but with ethnic touches that are elegant! You can definitely dine here with large or small groups! I can't wait to come back!

Then use it for several meals with the included garlic naan and salad. I make my own white basmati rice and enjoy every serving. My recent visit here saw several changes. There is a new owner and chef, something I questioned, after indulging in a sit down, for the buffet selections of the day. Very noticeably, there was shrimp curry, a feature generally not seen in buffets. That too, it was small shrimp, scarcely distributed in the curry and definitely from a frozen packet (I confirmed that with the chef). Strikingly absent at this location, was the daily fixture of lamb curry, which in the past, was tender boneless pieces, swimming in a thick intoxicating gravy. Instead, the only meat selection was chicken in more than one version. The tikka masala, the curry, the tandoori. The latter was exceptional and better than in previous times. The vegetables were standard and just okay. The pakora appetizer easily surpassed the samosas. Unfortunately, the pappar (lentil wafer) was baked, not roasted on the fire, or even fried. An important touch for the marriage of crunch and flavor that was lacking. The fresh garlic naan, the raita and the chutneys were all super. Service, with the same server as before, was timely, friendly and most attentive.
