The food was delicious!! The dish I had consisted of chicken drumsticks, rice, and butter naan and I was given a yogurt sauce on the side-- I would highly recommend it. The service was excellent too and everyone there was super nice and welcoming! Ambiance was good too and the place was comfortable. The price and portions were very reasonable and you get a lot of food for what you pay for! I would definitely visit again :) read more

First off, I hate writing bad reviews about restaurants and I wasn't going to but the restaurant wouldn't give me a resolution and told me there is no manager or owner that exists for me to talk to. We ordered from the restaurant and there was so much oil that the bag broke in my car and now I had to pay for the carpets in my car to be shampooed to get the smell and oil out. I'm extremely upset. If you're going to eat at this restaurant, eat in person and don't do takeout or else you'll be spending a ton of money to get the oil and smell out of your car. I will never order from here again especially because the employees wouldn't help at all and said they don't have any managers or owners. Horrible customer service. read more

I had the curry bowl - med. spice, soo delicious. Just the right flavors, and spice. They actually lowered their prices due to current inflation, owner told us the new menus had not been printed yet. Love this place, it's is very clean, great prices for the food we got, & server was helpful with explaining some of the dishes, I will definitely be back. read more

Very good food, friendly and attentive service. We got the tikka masala and paneer with spicy level. Also got garlic naan, mango lassi, and chai. The saffron rice that comes with certain dishes was generous and delicious. They were sensitive to my allergies. Definitely will return here when I'm in the area! read more

Food was amazing! I only had tikka masala with chicken but it was so flavorful. The hummus was just ok, I kept biting down on raw onions in it. I would definitely go again when in the area again. read more

Met the owner, Sal (Salaman) & his daughters, Nazia & Andriana (Andy)! Amazing service, and definitely a family friendly atmosphere. Shocking to have such a personal, welcoming service at a food hall---this place is a definite hidden gem! Super flavorful. Everything on the menu is drool worthy. Worth the drive for us! (We're not locals but drive out from West Covina to dine here) The food is so authentic and delicious than majority of the Brick & Mortar Indian restaurants we've frequented. Love that they truly are a made to order sit down. You can count on fresh, homemade style, flavorful cooking here. It was so good, we drove out again the day after because we craved the yumminess (They're consistent! I'm writing this review as we're seated this second visit lol) read more

The Tikka Masala with buttered Naan hit the spot. I enjoyed how the rice complemented all.

Came back here for their garlic naan and their butter chicken! After trying a few other places in the area - my boyfriend kept saying "Sana's Butter chicken and naan is better" lol. //CONTEXT// We came here on a Friday at around 4 pm as a party of two! We were seated immediately. //ENVIRONMENT// Inside Union Market K-scope in the back! //FOOD// Garlic Naan is my favorite here. It's buttery and garlic pieces are good. And not overly dry either. We ordered two servings which is perfect. Their butter chicken is super tasty! Tastes so good dipping the garlic naan. I think there was more chicken this time, too! The garlic sweet and sour was so tasty! If you love like Chinese or Vietnamese food this dish hit the spot! It was so savory and yummy! Loved the onions and seasoning. //SERVICE// We had a very nice server who I believe may have been the owner. She refilled our drinks promptly and checked up on us. //OVERALL// We'll be back :) updating my review because this is definitely some of the best Indian Pakistani food we've had! read more

Since this is a small business I want to do more good than otherwise. Flavors were excellent. There is a quality within the food. Meat was quality but it was dry with the lamb and the chicken. Entree portions and appetizers were tiny. 5 cubes of chicken in the curry entree, flavors were good or great. Chai teas tasted watery. The portion sizes and prices are a real deal breaker because there are so many other options in orange county. I don't feel like I am getting a value other than the spice quality and halal meat quality within the food. There wasn't enough food to share amongst our table to really enjoy everything for a full plate. One or two chicken pieces each? Service was kind but not attentive. When we walked up to dine and the hostess was on their phone and we had to catch her attention. This is due to innocence through a young person at the front. With waitressing the same happened, water cups were empty with no asking to refill, tea was gently spilled on serving and they didn't even comment or acknowledge and walked away. We were asked if we wanted a box to go when we were still eating. Sana's has good food. If you want to check it out it's nice. I wish there was more attention to the portions and customer experience though. read more

Okay, no joke, the best Indian food I've ever had! Ended up here on a total accident because the hot pot place next door was too busy! Must admit, this was a total pivot option. This was the happiest accident of my life. I was expecting .... Basic, over creamed Indian food. What I got was simply, brilliance. I am not kidding when I say this is the best I've ever had, coast to coast. We had the Lamb korma, Tikka, Garlic Naan... Somoa's. I'm literally in disbelief how good this food was! The girl serving us incredibly sweet. Her dad is the chef! This is the place. No doubt read more

Really nice service and cute small place. Really enjoyed the flavors of the saag and the butter chicken and the naan was super good! Barely any seating as it's in a small food court area. Thought service sizes would be a bit bigger for the price but the saag paneer had only like 5 cheese cubes in it. Really enjoyed the yogurt drink also! Good flavors but a bit overpriced for serving size in my opinion read more

What is there not to love about this restaurant. ?! I came here again about a month ago. I ordered the beef biryani this time and of course I was not disappointed. Firstly, the flavors and aroma are so heavenly. so, so good . The food is very high quality. Portions are sufficient and pricing is decent for the area. I went during weekday so not too busy and was served within 15-20 minutes , service was friendly and welcoming. This place is a gem, happy to add to my list of favorite restaurants in OC. read more

We found this place on yelp and gave it a try today. We eat a lot of Indian food and this place is a must try. It's so unassuming but the food is fantastic and the staff are so friendly. Highly recommend coming here. We had Keema samosa, butter chicken and butter naan and all was amazing. You know it's legit when the medium spice is spicy. read more

I should have written this review last year, it is way overdue ! This is the very best Indian restaurant you can find with always quiet atmosphere and very friendly staff. Food is fresh right from the kitchen The Garlic Bread is a must every time we go there. The flavor and aroma of any dish is from the heaven, so so good. Nothing really negative , I wish I could give them 6 stars ! Keep on doing this high quality food ! read more

I was extremely impressed with the food at this spot today. Since my favorite restaurant Mint off of Alicia pkwy closed, I have been looking for something remotely comparable and finally found it. I will be back. read more

We always drove past this shopping plaza on the freeway in Mission Viejo, but finally decided to drop by for lunch today. The shopping plaza is called The Kaleidoscope and it's quite empty. Lots of places to eat, but quite empty on a Sunday. We kept walking around and saw Union Market, which was quite empty as well. But tucked way in the back was Sana's Indian Restaurant, and we decided to give it a try. We ordered the Chicken 65 appetizer and Shrimp Tikka Masala as entree. The Chicken 65 was a fried chicken dish sautéed with bell peppers with very rich flavors and the Shrimp Tikka Masala was very good also! Not your typical creamy tomato tikka masala, maybe a bit less creamy but more flavorful! They gave us a big bowl of basmati rice to eat with our orders, and it was so good that we took the tikka masala and rice home for dinner! Really happy that we discovered such a good Indian restaurant in the area, and kind of nice that it's not so crowded, making it very convenient to drop by again! read more

Searching for places to eat in the local area and this place popped up. A small local restaurant with good service & food. But the food is way too expensive for the portions. When compared to other Pakistani/Indian restaurants for $70 dollars I would get three entrees that would feed 4-5 adults. I feel so dumb... :-( wasted $70 for a 1 person meal. read more

My Brother Omar ordered it. We never leave reviews but had to on this occasion as the food was extremely disappointing despite the small servings. Never again!! read more

Located inside Union Market, went in for Saturday night dinner with couple friends. Nice to have a halal restaurant here. Food had good flavors, portions were small and prices were high. Servers were two young gals, who were attentive and friendly but skimped on little things that make a big difference such as paper napkins and cutney sauce. They would only bring one napkin out at a time after you asked for it, and it looked somewhat used. We ordered two orders of samosas since they were out of pakoras. Each order came with two samosas, but they only brought one set of sauces in half filled tiny little bowls. I figured since we ordered two servings we should get two servings of sauce and when I asked for more sauce the server said she would just refill it, which she took back and brought out half filled again. We really needed more sauce but I didn't want to keep asking because clearly they were saving pennies with the sauce and napkins. We ordered sekh kabob plate which came with ground chicken kabobs and rice. Chicken tikka which literally had only 5 small cubes of chicken in a bowl of sauce for $20. Everything was overpriced and small portions, you can get more food for less at any Persian restaurant. Will not be coming back here. read more

Ordered take out for lunch on a Friday - SO DELICIOUS! Biryani with chicken and added mint chutney. Great portion & perfect flavor (I ordered mild spice and it still had a little kick, but really tasty and not too hot). Will absolutely return again. read more

Ok I don't know what went wrong comparing to this other reviews my experience is way different. First of all this is a Pakistani restaurant not Indian. So the flavors are different. But what ever you do don't order the sheesh kebob. It's the most driest thing I ever ate. I even got sick later. And the portion are very small. We paid 95.00 bucks for small amount of food. Check the pick. Chicken 65 is very sour. The best thing is the chai tea. read more

Phenomenal Indian food!!! Super flavorful! We had the butter chicken, Tikka masala, meat samosa, buttered naan and the mango lassi. All of it is made to order and really fresh. It was so good, we ordered 2 more orders of the buttered chicken entrees to go home with. Never did that at a restaurant before, but we just had to have the food again as soon as possible. The service was wonderful. Perfect lunch :) Thank you. read more

Awesome Indian food here. Chicken Tika Masala and Butter Chicken were BOMB!!! So yummy with garlic naan. Staff are all friendly. Sure looks like a family business and love it. There's a window where you can see the kitchen. So interesting to watch the cooks make the food. So yummy. I hope more people discover it so they can enjoy delicious Indian food! read more

Tucked inside the food court of Kaleidoscope is this gem of a restaurant. We tried the following during our visit: 1) Chana Chicken ($21): This was really good, I would give it a 9 out of 10. The chickpeas were just right in terms of texture. Not too hard or too mushy. The accompanying sauce was perfect and the boneless chicken was tender and well prepared. I would highly recommend it. 2) Beef Korma Curry ($21): Again they hit it out of the ballpark with this one. The spices were just right and the boneless Beef was tender and juicy. I would give it an 8 out of 10 score. 3) Daal Tadka ($15): It was quite flavorful but not up to par with the other dishes. I think if was too watery. 5 out of 10 for me. 4) Keema Naan ($7.95): Very well made. Comes stuffed with ground Chicken. A solid 7.5 out of 10 possible points. Other than the above the dishes were served with complimentary Basmati rice which were well made. Their Naans are also freshly baked in the oven and are $3.95 each. Overall our experience was really good and the service was also spot on. I would definitely be going back to this place. South OC was always lacking for good desi (Indian/Pakistani) cuisine and this place had definitely filled that void. read more

Hiding in the back of the Kaleidoscope shopping center in Union Market is this great Indian restaurant. The food is perfectly spiced, the portions are generous and it looks as great as it tastes. Freshly made so you might have to wait bit it's worth it. Had the chicken tandoori which wa charred just right on the outside but still tender inside. Channa Masala was great too. Family run service with a smile. read more

Great place to have a spicy Chicken Tikka Masala! Great service! Also the music and the decoration creates an amazing ambience.

Food quality is 3.75 out of 5. Service is 4.25 out of 5. Ambiance: it is inside a nice shopping food hall. The food / curry dishes were oily. Like a vat of oil. Value: poor value for quality and quantity of food. Have not seen this before. Overall decent. Overall, I would recommend it. I got three curry dishes and ine seekh kebab. Kebab was the best dish. read more
