    Maharaja Thali
    Hemesh P.

    The foods great and the portions are enormous The maharaja thali is enough for 3-4 people. Especially if you order other things. The bati and dal were really good. It comes with three types of bread too. All tasted really good and authentic. I thought the dal was good too. The thali comes with a bunch of chutneys and even green pepper pickle which was delicious The pani puri is really good - the chutney and water are really flavorful I liked the dabeli too. The potato filling was really heavily spiced but it was pleasant The servers were really kind and the food came out pretty quickly

    Delicious food! We got a platter to share with 3 people and the garlic naan & Baigan Bharta eggplant curry. Favorites were definitely the Baigan Bharta and garlic naan. They were so flavorful. The platter had 3 different curries, several breads and sauces to dip them in. I loved how they all had distinct flavors. Definitely had lots of leftovers afterwards that we packed to go! Service was quick, and we were able to get seated quickly. We parked on the street in front (parking free on Sundays woo).

    Fantastic Indian restaurant with lots of options. The most popular item is the Thali, a whole bunch of different items made for a great personal meal. The variety of flavors is authentic and satisfying. The restaurant is fully vegetarian. The staff are friendly and interior is very clean.

    This was my first time going down to Bhooke but it will definitely not be my last. It is located next-door to a restaurant I visit very often (Udupi Palace) for South Indian food. Bhooke is Rajasthani based north Indian food but also has a selection of fusion Indian Chinese dishes. I didn't get to try those this time I will next time because I will be definitely eat here again. You could tell the ingredients were high-quality and that everything was freshly made. Everything was very flavorful without being oily or heavy. For example one of the dishes we got was Shahi paneer which can be very very rich but this had all of the flavor but the sauce had a lighter almost mousse-like texture...it was really delicious. There was a group of five of us for lunch, we got four appetizers, three main dishes, rice and bread. And split between the five of us came to $19.30 a person . The gentleman who served us was very nice and attentive but also very calm we never felt rushed and in fact we had to ask for the check they weren't trying to get us out of there to get the table. And they had a nice circulation of people coming in without it being overbearing. I didn't even realize they had Bollywood on the television in the background because there was no blaring music while we were there it was either very low or muted. It was just a delightful lunch and I look forward to returning.

    Terrible service! Grumpy waiter took our order after a long wait. We asked for dessert that didn't have nuts as that's what he came for and he said everything had nuts - what a restaurant in California that doesn't offer nut free options?! We got an unsympathetic "sorry" but on further inspection of the menu there were ice creams that were but free that could've been suggested. We ordered chaat. Sev puri and pani puri were too similar. Sev puri was not on flattened puris. Kulfi faluda was not in a glass as expected but served as ice cream. Not greeted when we walked in or left! Walls are decorated nicely. Honestly the awful service is off-putting. Makes me wonder about the high rating on Yelp.

    Friends recommendation on trying one of top 101 LA restaurants of 2023. The area is house of other Indian/vegetarian restaurants. Parking is free exactly in front but just for the first hour. Inside is inviting and the decor is Indian. Did I forgot to mention this restaurant is Indian/vegetarian? Mainly because most of the dishes are vegetarian. Spices are mild but can be spicy upon special request. There's several options of curry but all does not come with rice. Each customer is given a small bottle of water Order Maharja platter (most popular item), kadahi paneer (one of most popular curries) but request to be super spicy, garlic naan, pyaz kachori appetizer. The platter is huge for one person because it comes with three different curries and various of dishes while one plate has a dessert (according to the server). The kadahi pannier has onions, peppers and tofu and looks spicy when request to be super spicy. It's spicy enough to tickle your throat but not enough to burn you if you love spicy food. The kachori appetizer is fried, comes with two different sauces and has savory flavor. Overall, if you like Indian and vegetarian, recommend on trying this out

    One of my favorite places in Cerritos in the little india area . They are only authentic rajasthani food. They have gatte ki sabzi . They gluten free bajra and makhi ki roti. Do the thali for the experience its amazing two people can easily share it . The kachoris were good . Service is good attentive and will suggest . It's clean their kitchen is small and weekends get super busy . Love the fact they are using recycled paper trays.

    My second time here and opted not to do the LAT review items. I am not a Kachori Chat person so will just say not my thing. I ordered the Palak Paneer and it was very good. The 'cheese' cubes were large and the spinach curry flavorful and creamy. My friend's Baigan Bharta was smoky as advertised and not my thing however the spice kick was great. My garlic naan was awful. It seemed like it had been warmed up. Reheated with a fresh coating of garlic oil. Blah. I suggest that management develop a new method of providing water to folks. The little tiny bottles are not large enough and environmentally a negative. They can get delivery in big bottles and serve water out of pitchers like other places. The small bottles do not encourage me to order traditional Indian drinks as they are just too caloric for me and then I would order less food.

    My husband and I came to Bhookhe on a Sunday night in late October. I'd found Bhookhe while browsing Yelp and thought it looked great, and our experience here matched my expectations. Bhookhe is located on a Main Street in Artesia and there is ample street parking in nearby residential areas. We didn't have a reservation when we came in around 6 pm, but were seated immediately as the restaurant was only about half full. Ambiance here is simple and casual. A waiter brought over menus immediately. One unusual thing I observed was that they served us small bottles of water rather than tap water in cups. My husband was starving and wanted to order a lot of food, but the waiter counseled us against the amount we were about to order (a first) and told us to order less. We got four dishes, which still ended up being a lot of food. We shared the aloo tikki chaat, and the aloo puri as appetizers. For mains, my husband had the garlic naan and malai kofta and I had the maharani thali. I can say without a doubt this is the best Indian food I've ever had in the US. The food was bursting with flavor and super filling. Prices were also quite modest. After I ate here, I was already planning my next visit and telling my friends about it. Looking forward to coming back.

    Maharaja Thali

    I went all the way to Artesia to try this restaurant which bring authentic Indian Rajasthani food culture to here. In fact the decoration brings the vibe and even plates is traditional style made out of leave. They have a lot of options on the menu, plus they have Thalis which is good so you get chance to try a lot of items. I tried maharaja thali and Sartaj thali. I just blown away from the flavors it brings in mouth. If you want to really try rajasthani food, this is the place. My favorites is dal bati, pyaaj kachori and their kadhi. This place is busy on the weekend, but their service is faster though.

    Are the waiters able to provide reliable guidance on which dishes are vegan, or is the menu clearly marked?

    One of Curry Lounge's specialties, the Amritsari Kulcha with Chole is a popular North Indian dish…read more Often consumed for breakfast, Amritsari Kulcha is a stuffed unleavened flatbread, traditionally cooked in a tandoor oven. It consists of spiced mashed potatoes, paneer, yogurt, mixed vegetables & onions. Topped with a slathering of butter or ghee. Never served by itself, Amritsari Kulcha is paired with Chole (chickpea curry). For dipping, raita (yogurt) & tamarind chutney complete the meal. I've had Amritsari Kulcha at many establishments in Little India, and Curry Lounge does it the best! An order is large and a generous amount of food, that'll keep you full for the rest of the day. Regarding the remodel, the restaurant is now more spacious and accommodating for more guests. The murals on the walls & decorations add to the appeal. I've been a regular at Curry Lounge, since they opened, and will continue to be so. Highly recommend!

    Man, I really had high hopes for this place. We ordered the chicken tikka masala, butter chicken,…read moresaag aloo, garlic naan, white rice, and samosas to start. I'll start with the positives -- the samosas were actually really good. Great flavor, crispy texture, and the sauces they came with were excellent. Service was also great, and our server was very friendly and attentive. Now for the disappointing part. The garlic naan was super doughy and almost cake-like, which was not enjoyable at all. The butter chicken was overwhelmingly sweet to the point where it honestly tasted more like dessert than curry. The tikka masala was better, but it seriously lacked salt and flavor depth. The saag aloo was creamy, but overall pretty bland and forgettable. The biggest disappointment was the amount of chicken in both dishes. We were left with bowls full of sauce and barely any meat. It honestly felt like we paid for soup with a few pieces of chicken thrown in. We left feeling pretty ripped off, especially for the price. Maybe it was just an off night since they were busy, but based on this experience, we won't be coming back.

This was such a great spontaneous discovery. They have a small parking lot in the front where we parked, but then we saw later on that they also have additional parking in the back if you don' see spots in the front. Upon entering the staff was welcoming. The gave us a few tables to choose from that were cleaned and appropriate for 2 people. I just want to say service was impeccable our whole time there. Everyone on their team took turns checking on us, making sure our waters were refilled, and that we had everything we needed to enjoy our meal. So nice!! As we explored the menu, we saw the combination dinners that allowed us to get more variety, which we love. We both picked a different combo so we could share and try more things. My boyfriend enjoys tandoori so he went with the Mix Tandoori Grill ($26.95) that comes with an assortment of Tandoori Chicken, Lamb Seekh Kabab, Chicken Tikka, Fish Tikka served in a sizzling platter on a bed of onions with naan, rice, and gulab jamun. So much food! I picked the India Special ($24.95) which comes with chicken tikka, the choice of lamb or chicken curry which I opted for the chicken, veg, korma, raita, rice, naan, and gulab jamun. What a FEAST!! For the naan I asked for the garlic naan and it was INCREDIBLE. Wow! Might be THEE best Indian food I have ever enjoyed. Between the two of our orders I felt like I had the variety I have when I go eat at Indian buffets. My boyfriend loved the tandooris platter. All of the proteins were cooked perfectly. I assume they were prepped separately to get to the right cooking temp. So funny because my boyfriend was eating the rice while I was indulging in the naan. Dipping the naan in the curry and the korma. Nom Nom Nom! So fun and so delicious. My boyfriend was even saying this is one of the best meals he had in a while. I was so full when the gulab jamun dessert came out at the end but it was so delicious I still ate all of it. Without a doubt the best execution of this dessert I have ever had. We will definitely be back when we find ourselves craving Indian food.

The butter chicken is my favorite, I know it's the most basic b Indian food but everything I've tried has been awesome. Sangeetha's cooking has made me ok with trying some vegetarian food when I thought I'd never like any non meat-centric dish. Swing by, try something new or enjoy something old. Relevant - it's not super spicy, but that's ok to me, it's more accessible to people that might be turned off by excessive spice - I have some scorpion pepper powder that I add to bring the heat, and it doesn't hurt the flavor that I've come to love. They're not open Mondays, but hey - she deserves time off! A suggestion if I may - grab an extra bowl of butter chicken alongside whatever else you get, and throw a fried egg or two on top the next morning for breakfast. DOES NOT HAVE BANANAS! As a professional simian that is of note, but not a negative ;) There are random snacks I've never seen before, I've tried a few and have been happy with what I've sampled.

I don't think three stars is bad. So just to restate. The food is not bad. But I'm not going to take this review down because I don't feel like it's appropriate for the owner to message you privately with an attitude and try to strong-arm you into taking down the review. I have left plenty of reviews about restaurants in Little India, and not once as anybody messaged me with the tone that you have used with me. So I'm leaving it up. Live and learn. Edit: I got a notification that the owner continued to add to her comment, so to answer her questions, I don't remember what I got because it was several months ago, but I remember that it was just okay. It wasn't bad but your approach to dealing with your customers is. I don't think that Yelp has the option of messaging people so you can come at them with a shitty attitude and strong-arm them into trying to change their review. You're honestly just making yourself look worse.
