    Interior
    Rima Z.

    The love is so apparent at this restaurant. Humble and gentle service, patiently guiding patrons through questions. The interior is sparkling clean and the mural is just stunning. The food is beautifully presented, generous portions, and a firework of perfectly balanced flavors. We ordered plain and garlic naan - both are pillowy perfection and we used them to sop every last drop of the sauces.

    I've been to the Pasadena location before, I prefer this location. Service was amazing and so attentive. Beautiful restaurant. Obsessed with the shrimp tikka masala, it's so so good and so much flavor. I will be coming back for sure. Lamb kabob was tender and great flavor.

    Service was really wonderful here! They have a delicious and affordable lunch special. Beautiful restaurant, very clean and well run. My mother and I are both enjoyed the lunch special, the garlic naan was tasty as was the rice and chicken. Very nice flavors all around. Great option if you are looking for Indian food in the area!

    Tandoori Chicken Lunch
    Connie G.

    Came in for a late lunch, staff was attentive and fast. I had some samosas, probably the best I've ever had! The tandoori chicken for lunch was good, but the chicken was dry hence the four stars. Overall, will definitely come here again!

    Wow!!!!!!!! Food was FAMTASTIC! Some of the best chicken tikki masala I ever had! Red wine was a bit eh... but everything else, salad dressing, daal soup, garlic naan, rice and more were all fantastic! LOVE the ground seating option. It was so fun and vibey! Really good service. They double checked to let me know if things had gluten in them and I really appreciate that care for my food sensitiviies.

    Chicken Tikka Masala

    We recently visited the Arcadia location and enjoyed it so much that we decided to meet up with friends at the Glendale spot. My friend and I ordered from the Dine LA menu, while another friend chose the Frankie wrap, and my husband went with the fish tikka masala, onion naan, and a salad. The Dine LA combo was such a great deal--it came with a flaky, flavorful samosa, chicken tikka masala, salad, gobi aloo, dahl lentils, garlic naan, Indian iced tea, and rice pudding for dessert. Everything was delicious, and the portions were generous. The naan was especially memorable--fresh, warm, and perfectly cooked. My friend loved the Frankie, which was like an Indian burrito packed with flavor. The service was friendly and welcoming, and we all had a great time. Street parking is available, and there's also a 90-minute lot nearby. The interior has a trendy vibe, complete with a beautiful mural that adds to the experience.

    Some of the best Indian food we've ever had! Garlic naan was made so well. We ordered the fish tikki masala and Vegetarian Tali. Vegetarian Tali came with nirvana tofu and it had so much flavor. Our waitress was very young, polite, and professional. We ate at one of the lower tables. Great experience but it was uncomfortable for me. My legs were too long and I'm only 5 ft 6. The ambiance is quieter with background music. Great place for connection and socializing with your company. Lots of seating available at this location. 100% recommend. Fish Tikki Masala: 5/5 Garlic Naan Bread: 5/5 Vegetarian Tali: 4.5/5

    EXCELLENT INDIAN FOOD IN GLENDALE ================================= I have been to All India Cafe's newer restaurant in Glendale many times and I can't believe I forgot to write a review. My husband is a regular at their restaurant on Fair Oaks in Pasadena and he says he can tell a difference between the chicken tikka masala. I really can't. We are hooked on the chicken tikka masala so we always order the lunch special. See my photos. We especially love that salad dressing. We ordered the Pani puri shots and they were great. I also ordered a Maharaja Fashion to drink and that was delicious. They add a little saffron and that was a nice addition.

    Vada Pav Sliders
    Sam B.

    My bestie and I met here for lunch during our work break. I bookmarked the Pasadena location a while back after it showed up in my feed a few times, and later realized they had a second location here in Glendale, right off of Brand - easier for my bestie to get to. After being seated, we were handed a traditional menu as well as a shorter menu of fusion/street food options. We opted to order from the second menu, sharing a plate of Vada Pav sliders and the Gulabi Farfalle. The vegetarian sliders were small spicy potato patties in buns, a twist on a popular Indian street food. The gulabi farfalle was a creamy tomato pasta with a hint of Indian spices. Both dishes were pretty good, making All India Cafe a solid choice for Indian/ fusion food. ****************** My Ratings: 1 Star: Terrible; just thinking about it makes me angry. 2 Stars: Wasn't a fan so Not likely to return. 3 Stars: Meh. Average. Might return if others drag me. 4 Stars: Yum! Likely to return. 5 Stars: Amazing! Would plan my day around it.

    I had an appointment in Glendale and, like any reasonable Angeleno, decided I'd rather kill time with food than sit parked on the 5 pretending it's a parking lot. Yelp told me I was dangerously close to All India Café, which had been sitting on my "to-try" list, so in I went. The Chicken Tikka Kebab came out sizzling and fragrant--juicy boneless pieces that hit all the right notes of cilantro, ginger, and garlic. But the real MVP? The green sauce on the side. Bright, herby, tangy--it was so good I considered asking for a to-go tub and calling it dinner. The little pickled veggies were a fun bonus too. The Peshwari Naan was sweet and nutty, almost dessert-like, though it came with a jam that didn't really do it for me. Still, naan on its own? Yum. I also ordered the Gajar Al Hawa dessert--warm, carrot-based, and surprisingly comforting. Unique flavor, but I was into it. For drinks, I tried the Maharaja's Fashion (their Indian Old Fashioned with saffron bitters). Couldn't really taste the saffron, but the bourbon and orange combo still worked. Service was warm and attentive without hovering, and since I rolled in early evening, I pretty much had the place to myself. Definitely worth the Glendale detour, and I'd happily come back to work through more of their menu.

    I want to update my review, since my first one was 8 years ago. I still frequent this restaurant at least once a week! I love their newly added menu: the pastas, panned tikka, chicken wings to name a few. The restaurant is always so clean and staff friendly. You can tell that they have many regulars that come by - who they always recognize as well. Service is always which too! So glad we have a friendly, warm, friendly run Indian restaurant in Glendale.

    Tried out this place recently. It's such a great spot. The ambiance is spot on. The food was delicious. Especially the Chicken Tikka Masala! The service was also incredible. The Garlic naan is the best.

Service is fairly quick (have to be to keep up with the amount of people coming in and out) and friendly enough. The food (outside of mine) was very tasty and had a decent selection size. Great flavor and very fresh. Mine (seasonal veggie) was very underwhelming. The taste, compared to everything else, was mid. It needed salt or some other seasonings. I ended up adding chili to it, which helped, but not much, which made me think salt was the missing factor. Not sure how that happened because the other soup, and my friends braised chicken noodles, tasted absolutely perfect. If anything, the other dishes were super bold with their flavors. I love that you can pick different handmade noodles. They were so good. A little chewy and cooked well.

    This location is in a convenient part of Glendale, but parking around here can definitely be a pain…read moresometimes. Usually the place itself isn't too crowded though, which I like. Staff was friendly and service was quick. I ordered the limited time Lamb & Beef Gyro Platter ($15.95). Portion size was solid -- about half salad/lettuce and half rice with meat. The meat itself was actually really good and flavorful. Big plus that it's halal too. I added spicy pita bread for an extra $0.60, but honestly it just looked like they sprinkled spicy seasoning on top of the pita. Overall, the plate felt a little pricey compared to similar spots. Kind of basic and not super memorable, but still tasty enough that I finished everything. To be fair though, I was hungry. Also, maybe it's just me, but the white sauce tasted a little different than I remember from before. Nothing amazing, nothing bad either. Ambiance 3/5. Just a solid quick meal with friendly service.

To preface, I still love Halal Guys and think the food tastes great--this review is really just about this specific location. As someone who has been going to halal guys in New York long before they expanded locations outside of the state, unfortunately I feel this place went from super generous and customer-focused to overly stingy and corporate. When I asked for extra onions, one of the workers told me he could only do a maximum of two scoops. Fine--I had no issue with that. What threw me off was that he then started explaining (more like lecture) on how they have to account for the extra cost of onions because it's additional supply they have to purchase... which just felt unnecessary. I would've been totally okay without the explanation, but after years of steadily increasing prices and smaller portions, hearing that just didn't sit right. Then when I asked for "less lettuce," the same worker made a point to tell me that doesn't mean I'd get extra rice. Again, I understand the logic from a business standpoint, but the constant (unnecessary) micromanaging and disclaimers really took away from the experience and made it clear that customer experience is no longer a priority. Unfortunate because halal guys used to be my go-to Chan restaurant for a reasonably priced, generously portioned meal.
