This place is AMAZING I've been coming here since they opened. Great customer service you may wait a bit for your food but know it's fresh and delicious. I now live 2 hours away but every time I am in town I make sure to stop by. read more

If you're looking for a good authentic experience, this restaurant is beautiful. I can't believe how good the food is. Oh my God everything I tried was delicious. I can't pronounce most of the names of the food. I went with people that just arrived from Pakistan. They were so wonderful, but they absolutely spoiled me. The beef and the chicken dishes were wonderful. The bread was delicious. The vegetables were sliced. You could hear the crisp crunches of bites of everything delicious here. I will put up some pictures but I can't advise you enough. You must come here and they are priced extremely reasonable almost everything is under $20 and the service is personal there aren't too many businesses like this, but when people come over from other countries and they welcome us to different types of cultures you can't Miss the opportunity. It's one of the most wonderful experiences of living in this country and I am so grateful I came to this restaurant. The food is just delicious. read more

Get the chicken chargha. It's a must for me every time I come here. Spicy and tasty! I order plain naan to eat it with. Chicken biryani was underwhelming, not much spice or flavor. I'd skip this one. Beef seekh kabob was tasty! I also like to eat this with naan and dip it in the chutney. Gotta have Orange Fanta to wash the food down with. It reminds me of the motherland. For dessert get some kulfi which is like a creamy ice cream. Very rich. Pistachio is my fave flavor. Tasty and authentic Pakistani food. Delicious. I always order ahead before pick up and have to wait some more while I get there. I feel like they don't start working on the order until I get there and tell them I'm there for said order. I've never dined in but there are plenty of tables to sit at. read more

Ordered pickup, went to the restaurant at the pickup time and waited an additional 30mins. I would've understood if they were busy but there were no customers so not sure why it took them so long. We ordered 2 curries and both were not good, one was very bland and the other was burnt. Overall, bad experience. read more

Whenever I'm in los angeles there's only one restaurant comes in my mind for desi food and it's chargha house i love there chicken chargha biryani and karahi if you looking for pak indian food i strongly recommend this place read more

Hidden gem in Culver City. Looks like it is a Family run restaurant Food is amazing. Must try beef seekh kababs. Will come back here again

No just no Nihari - all fat no beef Biryani - too much rice not enough chicken Bhindi - too spicy Waiter said nothing is spicy but most dishes were spicier than I could handle. read more

Ambiance: it's a small family style restaurant, limited seats inside, good for takeout orders Service: terrible experience, if you don't speak their language, expect very different treatment, our table wasn't served any water until asked three times, but their own people got served water immediately at the moment when they got seated, let alone super slow and forgetful, first dish wasn't served until 40 minutes after placing the order, and the bill came before all dishes were served, apparently they forgot to two items from the order but still charged Food & Drink: numerous items to choose for chicken, beef, lamb and seafood dishes Chargha Chicken - **** Half or Whole chicken marinated with their special ingrediant and BBQ special desi style in tandoori oven, spicy and tasty, recommend Chicken Biryani - *** weekend special DUM biryani is with bone, spicy rice Naan - **** Flat leavened bread freshly baked in oven, recommend Mango Lassi - ** Mango based sweet yogurt drink, not fresh Price: large portions, affordable prices and decent quality, expect $20 per person for a fulfilling meal read more

Need major improvement in everything. Ambience and quality of food . Over rated place . Service very average

A restaurant, but also not just a restaurant. A sequence of flavors that refuses to be reduced to categories like "spicy" or "mild." Each dish seems aware of itself, yet unconcerned with expectations. You eat, but also observe yourself eating. It's oddly reflective. The experience resists simplification, which is precisely why it works. read more

I've been coming to chargha house for over 6 months regularly. The food is amazing! Definitely recommend the Chargha (grilled chicken) Dhaal (lentils) also superb. Ali is a great owner and I would recommend eating here + it's a family friendly place! read more

Chargha House is so good! It's always packed--and for good reason. The Pakistani food here is full of flavor, freshly made, and consistently delicious. Whether you're in the mood for a hearty meal or quick comfort food, this place delivers. The ambiance is casual and relaxed, making it perfect for everyday dining. The staff is friendly and attentive, which adds to the overall great experience. Definitely one of the top spots in LA for authentic Pakistani cuisine. read more

Although this was takeout, now I truly want to return and dine here since it's 100% traditional Indian food. Service was very quick and food was fantastic! Bon appétit! read more

Honestly lots things about this place can be improved. When we came in and sat down, they gave us the menu, gave us time. Upon ordering food and ordering water. They took so long for the food and didn't even bring us water and we had request again. The restaurant wasn't super busy. We order chicken tikka masala, it was over priced for the portion of food. I have ate in other places too. The dish was extra sour, and chicken wasn't cooked enough, the chicken had no flavor from the curry itself. We ordered a beef biryani to go, def will never come again. It was 20 dollars for small amount of food, and didn't taste good at all. Also don't even get me started on the mango lassi we ordered. It never came and we told the guy to cancel it as we paid. Waste of money and time. Save yourself and go to any of south Asian restaurants. People who like this place clearly haven't tried actual authentic Indian food. This is coming from a desi read more

The food was good, fresh and came out on time. Loved the chargha chicken and the other dishes we ordered. The bad part was the lack of friendliness and hospitality as they label themselves a family restaurant. One of the servers/host was on their social media the entire time and you can tell by their inattentiveness and goofing around with the other employees. Lack of friendliness when taking our orders by way of sighing and hurried facial expression. But overall I would go back for the food if in the area. It's a fast casual place so for what it is; solid place to try Indian/Pakistani food. read more

Best Indian food I've ever had. I ordered the lamb, garlic naan bread, and basmati rice. Everything was perfect!

I went today for lunch with my wife. They did not have any outdoor seating, so we decided to take the food to go. We ordered the following: - Meat Samosa -- 2 stars - A bit mushy - Chicken Tikka Masala - 3 stars - Chicken Karahi - 4 stars - Rice - 4 stars - They give you a very large amount for $4.99 - Onion Naan - 4 stars - Lots of onions (which I love). My wife thought it a bit dry. I dipped it in the lovely Karahi sauce. The bill for all this was $46, including tax. The two of us ate less than half of the food. We'll have some good leftovers. A few people have mentioned that the food was oily. I have to agree that the Chicken Karahi was oily. I used a spoon to take some out, and then had no problem enjoying the dish. It was very flavorful and a little spicy. I would definitely go back. read more

Brit expat here, so I do have 42 years of experience eating curries, the last 20 of which were in the USA, so I was sober. This is my absolute favorite place in LA for curry. Every meal exceeds the expectations of my friends when I bring it over as Take out. It's freshly prepared, tastes wonderful with the right contrast of spicy against aromatic. Added to that, the proprietor is super friendly and generous. Yesterday I forgot to add rice to my order, and he added it free of charge, as a gift from Pakistan! I couldn't recommend more highly. Lovely people. read more

Bit too spicy for me but excellent food and service ! I ALWAYS have to ask for yougurt so I can neutralize the spices . The whole staff is very friendly including Zain ! read more

I really wanted to like this place A few months ago, my roommate and I walked past this restaurant while buying supplies at the party store next door The place looked popping and the aromatics smelled good enough to put it on our list of places to try Fast forward to yesterday, after spending 8 hours at the beach, my roommate and I came in to try this place We ordered the following: -veggie samosa: smaller than anticipated, good flavor -plain yogurt side -half charga chicken: these were spicy but mostly bones. Portions are chicken wings and not a half chicken like expected -paneer tikka masala: really runny, not a lot of paneer -side order of rice -garlic naan -bindi masala okra was good but it was very oily Unfortunately the food disappointed and we left displeased Wont be coming back read more

Fantastic food, I don't have much exposure to Pakistani food but would recommend the chicken kahari! Didn't take a picture because I inhaled it, slightly spicy and ginger pieces on top. Call in advance though because it took about 40 min to make chicken biryani and chicken kahari. Food was delicious so keep that in mind when you order. read more

Came to try their food, but it was bad. We got biryani, but the rice was uncooked, and I could still see water in it. We also ordered chicken Chargha, which had mostly bones. Overall, their food is very disappointing. read more

This is a hole-in-the-wall place with friendly people and great staff. The Chargha Chicken and the Chicken Kadai are the best items here. The biryani was not to my liking, but the green chutney is awesome. read more

Great food for years. Always consistent and fresh. Family owned restaurant and feels like home cooked food.

Love this place! We always the whole chargha chicken, saag aloo and chicken keema mutter aloo! Love the mint sauce.

Always great service when we go here. The spice level is ON POINT!! Pro tip: get the garlic naan read more

It's been a long time since we stopped by. We were in the area and we decided to have dinner. We ordered the Nihari. And chicken tikka masala. Then Nihari was absolutely amazing. We forgot how good it was. We will definitely be coming back for it. Young kids, working the store are hard-working and trying their best to keep up with the people Definitely recommend this place. It is a hole in the wall but definitely worth stopping by. read more

I've never eaten at this restaurant, but I've ordered delivery twice and therefore feel qualified to say THIS PLACE RULES. $5 for a massive contained of fluffy basmati rice? Paneer tikka masala with a legit kick of the runny nose inducing variety? Flavorful saag paneer and aloo sag that are both hearty and not overly heavy? Yes, please. Give it all to me, baby. I've lamented for at least two decades that Indian places in LA seem averse to buttering their naan, and this restaurant is no different, but a naan is a naan, after all, and dry naan is preferable to no naan at all. If you're on the west side, you should definitely try this place. The food is great! read more

I don't understand how anyone cannot give this Pakistani restaurant 5 stars. The food is authentic, home-made, and reasonably priced for large portions. Everything I've tried has been absolutely delicious. The ownership is SO NICE and inviting. I love that we have a family restaurant that has brought it's recipes to the community. read more

I just tried this restaurant for the first time and got delivery and OH MY NAAN! It's delicious! They give you really good portions and you know when you're having those days where you want delicious comfort food that hits the spot? This is it! The chicken tikka massala is delicious and has a little spice to it but perfect. The garlic naan I wish I got more! They're good portions too but so addicting! Treated myself to some dessert and got the rice pudding and oh boy....I want more! Would I recommend this restaurant?! Absolutely!!!! New favorite spot! read more

The charga chicken was not fresh, smelled and tasted a bit rotten. When I told the server he just said that this will not happen next time. Absolutely disgusting to serve that trash to paying customers. I also ordered nihari and that tasted like pre packaged ready to eat stuff. I will not be going there again and neither do I recommend anyone else. All I wanted was to taste authentic food but I got scammed outta of 100 dollars. read more

Food not fresh at all, service meh, and place/ambiance just ok. Not coming again fs I rather not eat

Came here for my sister's post-grad school lunch with about 15 people. The food is really what makes this place happen. We were super hungry, so ordered food for probably about 30, but honestly having left overs was the least of my regrets. This is authentic, Indian and Pakistani food, and probably the best in LA. Service was on top of the world, they really know how to make it happen. read more

we ordered beef karai and all we got was a bowl of curry with 4 tiny pieces or beef, I thought it was a joke and we had to pay for bread extra $6. So about $23 for a bowl of liquid curry and 4 pieces of bread. We also ordered half a chicken and it looked like it was a quarter! Very disappointed! The food is also just Ok! This palace was better in a past but right now it's just a rip read more

Tasty food and great rates. Nihari, chargha, haleem few of our favorites. Ali bhai the owner is always so welcoming!
