Chicken Korma lunch combo
Megan M.

Malhi's is my favorite place to eat in Palmdale. Their service is the best, only to be topped by their delicious food. You come in and you feel like family, then you leave feeling full, happy and satisfied. This was my lunch combo today, I got the Chicken Korma this time, and the chicken was very flavorful and tender. Their cucumber water is so refreshing on a hot day like today. We will definitely be back soon.

Chicken Curry &Half Tandoori chicken

I ordered two lunch combos of chicken curry with rice and naan (price:40$) it tasted HORRIBLE!!! The chicken is mushy cubes in watered down sauce with a Minimal amount of seasoning,they all give you a small portion of curry with LOADS of rice & hard naan...this is not what I'd consider Indian food if you want authentic Indian food don't go here0 out of 10 would not recommend

This place was pretty nice, i like the restaurant decor. We tried this spot out a few days ago. We tried the curry lamb and tandoorii chicken plate. I enjoyed how quickly the food was prepared and the service the waitress provided. The flavors on the chicken tandoori was pretty good but a lil dry, i wish the portions was better. Overall, its a place worth trying if you are passing by.

Flying horse beer ($7.99)

Been coming to this location for a few years now and have tried several of their dishes. My go-to, however, is their chicken tikka masala, which is always on point. Meat is tender and the creamy sauce pairs perfectly with their rice or naan (garlic). Recently, I've also been ordering the mango chicken - think "Indian version of orange chicken". So good. If you like your food spicy ask for "Indian hot". Service is prompt and attentive. It's a cool vibe for a strip mall and nice enough for a business lunch.

Butter chicken, okra vegetable side, garlic naan, 10000 monks super beer, tandoori chicken and rice!

Let's let a 5 star out for a family run business that has been hitting bangers for as long as I can remember. I have never ever had a bad meal or service or experience here in the many years of living in the AV. Malhis is solid Indian food and serviced with a smile. The plate ware and setting and decorations make you feel at home Indian family style. The beer selection decent with the Indian beers. The menu has a good variety of items and they are fresh ingredients. The prices are decent for what you get, you will eat well here... I love the food service and the setting. If you are in AV and need an Indian meal, come to Malhis and enjoy.

Chicken Tikka Masala with Garlic Naan
Linda P.

Chicken tikka masala with garlic naan is my favorite. I tried their tea and that was also so good! Good service and not long wait times at all even when busy.

I would door dash this to work & decided to try the dine in experience..Great customer service and yummy food was excellent my kids loved it (was their first time trying Indian food). Plenty of waiters constantly checking in despite it being pretty busy. Will return!

I went here with my family and we got lamb tikka marsala, garlic naan, paneer pokora, lamb vindaloo, and bengan bharta (eggplant dish). I really like the decor of the building as well as the Indian music that played in the background. Chutney came complimentary. The paneer pokora reminded me of tofu and looked like a chicken nugget. The eggplant was very good. The chicken briyani was ok. My biggest issue is that the meat wasn't that tender. The vibdaloo in particular was a bit chewy. However, the flavors of everything was excellent. The naan was not excessively oily. The rice cups (comes with each curry order) are more shallow than they appear to be. An order of curry form here would make a perfect dinner.

Wow. It's difficult to come by good Indian food, but this place is really good. Went around 3 pm,…read moreafter buffet style was over. Restaurant had one other person inside, service was quick and attentive. Interior was decent and had some hanging plants around the sides. Let's get to the food. Started off with some little fried like chips with a garlic paste sauce that was on the house, really tasty! Vegetable Samosa - 10/10 DELICIOUS! Spiced absolutely perfectly! Genuinely really good, and the sauce was extremely tasty (really loved the red one specifically, I think it's tamarind?). Interesting shape too. I wish you guys would make chicken samosas too, could take it to a 10000/10! Lamb Saag - 8/10 Really good! The lamb was quite good, not chewy (which is hard to come by). Could have been a little more tender, and the sauce itself could have been a bit creamier, but very solid. Garlic naan - 9/10 It's good garlic naan, enough said! Onion Kulcha - 8/10 Tasty onion kulcha! Lachha Paratha - 8/10 Good buttery flaky bread Ginger Ice Cream - 10/10 GET THIS, SO GOOD! Didn't expect to like it as I don't particularly care for ginger, but both gf and I LOVED IT! Get this! Kheer - 3/10 (GF rating 8/10) Never had this before, but for a rice pudding was not expecting this. Was extremely watery, like soupy. Definitely thought it would be thicker. Cardamom flavor was far too strong as well, not my thing. Gf loved it though! In fact she thought it paired great with the ginger ice cream.

Some of our favorite dishes are the chicken tandoori served on a sizzling hot metal plate, chicken tikka masala, lamb korma, saag paneer, basmati rice and garlic naan. The servings are generous and we always have enough to take home to dine again. Cocktails are very reasonable with a Moscow Mule priced at under $9. There are other alcoholic drink options in this low priced range, The buffet has many options and the food is just as tasty as regular dining, but I have only been to it a few times. We have become like family here receiving a big welcome every time we enter the door. The servers are attentive and polite and we are on a first name basis with many. Anuv has become one of our favorite servers as he greets us with a big smile and has our usual order memorized even though we dine here less than once a month. Another waiter, (Monny) went out to the neighboring grocery store to buy me a little cake for my birthday when we dined here on that day. There is room for large parties and the decor is nice with glass top tables. Lots of Bollywood music videos are shown and the music can keep you in a good mood, Definitely dine here if you love flavorful Indian food!

The food is…read moreconsistently good, the flavors are there, and if you're craving dependable Indian food, it usually delivers. The menu leans toward the familiar classics, but they're done well. Curries are flavorful, spices are balanced, and the dishes generally come out the way you expect them to. It's not trying to reinvent anything, but sometimes that's exactly what you want; reliable food that scratches the itch when the craving hits. Service can be a little uneven. When the restaurant is busy, things sometimes feel rushed. And if you're ordering takeout, take the pickup time with a grain of salt. If they say 20 minutes, mentally prepare for 40. It's not unusual for orders to run double the quoted time. Still, despite those quirks, this place has stayed in rotation for a reason. The flavors hold up, the portions are solid, and it's one of those dependable neighborhood spots you keep coming back to over the years.

They even brought out an extra dessert on the house at the end, which was a really nice touch. They also offer free chai tea, which just added even more to the experience.

The staff was genuinely warm and helpful, guiding us through a very large menu that could honestly take a minute to narrow down. We landed on the vegetable korma, paneer saag, and garlic naan, all solid choices. But the saag completely stole the show. Bright, fresh, and loaded with ginger and aromatics. We could not stop eating it. Service is casual in the best way. Everything comes out in to-go containers even if you're dining in, which ends up being perfect because the portions are generous. This is clearly a prime pit stop for anyone heading over the Grapevine, and you'll absolutely have leftovers for the road. They also offer complimentary chai, which is an instant win for me, and the TVs playing Indian music videos are mesmerizing and kept me entertained as we awaited our meal. Thanks again LA Indian Cuisine!

Chef (Manny's wife, we didn't have the chance to ask her name) was gracious enough to create a custom meal for me after the item I wanted (shrimp tacos) sold out. I'm largely pescatarian/plant based and have allergies/sensitivities to other animal proteins, so her willingness to go above and beyond truly meant a lot. I was absolutely BLOWN AWAY with how flavorful, and authentic, the chana masala, samosas and chutneys were. It was so sweet of her to create such a delicious and creative bowl that catered to my dietary constraints. Please trust me when I say that this food was 100% worth it. It would be fantastic if they took pre-orders for whenever they're in the area (we were told every weekend), because it would be a shame to miss this. I 10/10 recommend eating here. Amazing job.

There aren't too many places to get it here in Santa Clarita and we were happy to try this new-ish place, next to Target in the heart of the Santa Clarita Valley. Our litmus test for Indian is Saag Paneer. (Generally we eat vegetarian when getting Indian.) We ordered it (and all our dishes a notch above mild so we can taste the spice without having the heat be too distracting. This may have been a notch above that in delivery but was delicious and ultimately passed "the test" for us. We also had Yellow Daal (harty and flavorful), garlic naan and vegetable samosas, all of which we enjoyed. The samosas, too, were slightly on the spicy side, but again not too distracting from the ample flavor. They have a whole separate menu section labeled "Vegetarian" as well as "vegan" labels on dishes so if you do have one of those diets, besides being happy to have so many options, you are well taken care of here. On top of all this, while we were there, most of the other patrons were Indian families which always seems like the real litmus test on whether the food is good and authentic.
