Saag was spoilt, paneer was too oily but tasted ok. The person at the counter refused to take back the saag and insisted it was indeed good. They don't speak English either. After some back and forth, they took the saag back and replaced it with dal tadka that was diluted. Also the price mentioned on the menu didn't match the ones on the bill. Will not return here after all this experience!

This little hidden gem is such a great place to get great food! The cashier M was very helpful and very friendly. They have a verify of India food most common items. We Ordered butter chicken (no spice ) yes, they will make the food with no spice if you just kindly ask. The butter chicken was very flavorful. I would say more flavorful than most places I have tried. The tandoori chicken was not dry cook to perfection. Most item on the menu are cook to order so be prepared to wait 10-15 mins. While you wait for your food you can walk around the store and grab a few snacks for the road. I promise you won't regret it here. I highly recommend you give it a try.

We've been coming to this Indian restaurant regularly whenever we visit Big Bear -- over the past…read moretwo years we've probably been here around ten times. Usually the food is good, which is why today was disappointing. The cheese naan used to be much better. This time it was dry, not very flavorful, and had very little cheese, as if it wasn't fresh. The chicken momos were also disappointing -- the dough was falling apart. We ordered a set that included eggplant with potatoes. The eggplant itself was tasty but overly salty, while the potatoes had an unpleasant, off taste. On the positive side, the meat dishes were still good, as usual. Service was inconsistent. One older staff member always provides great service, but the younger staff seemed distracted and inattentive, often on their phones. We hope this was just an off day, because this place has been much better in the past.

I ordered dinner delivery to my Airbnb; everything arrived promptly and perfectly packaged. Most importantly, everything was delicious. Butter chicken: The incredibly rich, delicious curry sauce feels like a meal in and of itself, even without the tender bits of chicken. Put them together and you're in heaven. You are able to adjust the level of spiciness to your liking. Must order! Garlic naan: Arrived steaming hot, delicious, perfect pairing with the butter chicken. Vegetable pakoras: Tasty vegetable snacks arrived with two delicous chutneys, tamarind and cilantro, in generous portions. Highly recommended if you're in the area. And that butter chicken is probably drive-worthy.

The fish curry was aromatic, with a beautifully spiced sauce that balanced it perfectly. The rice was fragrant and paired perfectly with the curry. The highlight was the sizzling platter with chicken, lamb, and shrimp, it arrived steaming hot and looked just as impressive as it tasted. Each protein was well-seasoned, tender, and infused with bold spices, making every bite exciting and satisfying. Service was quick, friendly, and attentive, which made the experience even better. Overall, a delicious and memorable meal with great flavors and excellent hospitality. Definitely a spot worth returning to!
