    Really delicious food! Highly recommend curry fun, it's a variety plate for one (although the portion, especially the rice and naan) is unbelievably large. The mint chutney for the samosa is also really, really good. So limey, garlicky, and flavorful. The samosas are light and flaky and delicious. Definitely a must get. The paneer masala fries were fantastic too. Everything is so well seasoned with so much spice and flavor. If you're craving Indian food, you should definitely check this spot out.

    Came by for a week night dinner and it did not disappoint! The food came out hot and tasted delicious. Even though you'll want to gobble up every last bite from how flavorful it tastes, make sure you save some room for the rose doughnuts because they are a delicacy! I enjoyed the music videos playing in the background. The restaurant design felt very traditional. The ladies serving me were so sweet. So happy I gave this place a try.

    First time actually having a sit down meal versus takeout. It's a cute restaurant along the fame 3rd St Blvd in Los Angeles. Location is great as there's tons of shops nearby as well as restaurants. The only downside, they have a small amount of parking in the back but the rest is street parking. Majority of the time they're all taking and side neighborhoods streets are permits. We looked around for a bit trying to find parking but no luck till we called to see if parking was available. The gentleman when answered told us they had parking and actually came outside to guide us to where the restaurant was as it hard to find in the dark. That was nice of him. There's a few space but normally they're all taken. Restaurant is cute, a main seating area as well as an outdoor dining area. It was covered but not sure if they open the top up during the day. They have a full bar with specialty's cocktails on hand. The menu consist of all your favorites Indian dishes. Spice level to your liking which is always great. Staff were very friendly which is a major plus. The samosas were excellent, served with two dipping sauce. Also had the butter chicken fries which was a first for me at an Indian restaurant. It's basically fries with butter chicken curry and topped with onions and cheese. Their version of a chili cheese fries. Also comes with paneer if that's your liking. The curries were great, butter chicken, lamb saag, shrimp saag all flavored well and spice level was great. Biryani was great a with chicken in the tomatoes base with rice. Everything was excellent. Drinks, food, service all were excellent. Full bar which is always good, they also have patio seating out front.

    Menu as of 8/18/25

    One thing that always makes me weak in the KNEES is Veggie korma. It's a tomato-based curry with the most aromatic spices, chock full of all different kinds of veggies, and dunked with freshly-baked naan bread?? Absolutely DI-vine, no notes, and this restaurant does the veggie korma so well here. Just steps away from the Grove outdoor mall in LA, Electric Karma has got another specialty dish that you can't find anywhere else--Butter chicken fries--such a simple combo, but so mindblowingly good. And you can't sleep on the Papri chaat, chickpeas and tamarind and mint chutney, all on a bed of the crunchiest chips ever. And obvi had to get a mango lassi to wash it all down ;) Thanks for reading! ^-^

    Chicken Korma
    Sam E.

    I really enjoyed their Indian food! My office managers brought it in for my birthday lunch and it fully satisfied my craving for home-cooked style Indian food. The chicken tikka masala was delicious. The gravy was thick and rich. The chicken was soft and buttery. It tasted so good with the soft, nicely charred naan bread. I tried the chicken korma as well which is a bit less spicy than the chicken tikka masala but pretty similar. Their Aloo Gobi (cauliflower and potatoes sautéed with a turmeric-ginger spice blend) tasted fresh and perfectly spiced. I very much look forward to going there in person to get the full dining experience, but I have heard good things! Based on their delivery alone I am very excited for how good it will taste served directly to the table!

    Been craving Indian food and trying a bunch in the Los Angeles area and this is one of my favorites! The ambiance is the best! Service is always good! For the food if you love Indian food I would say order medium spice if possible for more flavor! You can tell they need to cater to the surrounding areas demographic but I'm still able to get my fix! They also do some fusion like fries and bruschetta which is fun and the mango lassi is so yummy!

    Bombay Sangria: red wine, brandy, peach schnapps, fresh juice, tamarind, fresh-cut fruit (apples). Very good!

    Service upon arrival was friendly. With orders and dinner, nicely attentive. The restaurant is small, rustic, charming and clean. I ordered the Curry Fun for One (chicken tikka masala, saag paneer, daal, rice, raita, naan) since it had my favorite Indian dishes and seemed like a very good deal. It definitely had all the right elements and the mild flavor was fine but not good enough for me to order again. When asked how spicy I would like it, I said hot. I'd say it was medium at most. I liked the Bombay Sangria. The tamarind is a nice touch and the booze-soaked apples were delicious. The cocktail and drinks menu looked much more interesting than the food menu. I would like to try more beverages and I wouldn't mind trying more dishes but the bar is low food-wise. My dinner companions did like the samosas. The Chicken Tikka looked and smelled amazing. Parking in the area is a challenge. Residential parking is allowed until 6pm so the only option in the evening is metered parking which runs till 8pm. It's a busy area so you may need to walk a couple of blocks.

    Burnt flaming fish

    Place is beautifully decorated. Service was okay. I liked how they didn't come around often and let us talk to each other. The flaming fish we ordered was extremely burnt making it almost inedible. Please refer to the pic.

    We had a great experience at electric karma. Unparalleled ambience and exceptional service definitely elevated our experience. We met Chahat who manages the restaurant. He recommended some great food options. Loved the sky room patio which is ideal for private gatherings or relaxing seating with family. Food is great. Would recommend trying samosa, butter chicken, tandoori platter.

    Came here for dinner this past weekend and was blown away by how amazing their food and drinks are. Not only that but their entire staff was really great and attentive! Major shoutout to Lucky(the owner) and his son Harman for such exceptional service. Also I need to mention how beautiful the back part of the restaurant is! For food we ordered the butter chicken fries and samosas for appetizers, butter chicken curry, chicken tikka(sizzling plate), and 2 of their new mocktails that were insanely delicious. Honestly everything was a 10/10. Can't wait to return to try more of the food.

Open until 4am, their food was always fresh, clean, the staff were polite and professional, and the price was about the best deal you'd find downtown. A good, honest restaurant and business, which is rare in LA these days. I walked down there tonight and can confirm that the place is closed and the inside is being cleared out. Not sure why, but since there have been other locations around the LA area over the past several years, maybe they're just moving again. I wish them all the best! To Anwar and staff, thank you for the delicious and healthy food over the years, and for running a tight ship. I hope I see that Wolverine mural pop up somewhere else, soon!

The portion size alone is impressive. The container is packed and feels substantial the moment you pick it up. The base is a bed of fries, and these are not just filler. They are thick, well seasoned, and sturdy enough to handle all the toppings without turning into a soggy mess. On top of the fries is a generous amount of chicken. The chicken tastes freshly cooked, with that warm, savory flavor you expect from good shawarma, never dry and never overly salty. There are pita chips mixed in, which add a great crunch and texture against the fries and chicken. Multiple sauces are drizzled throughout the dish. I chose a side of their spicy sauce. The creamy white sauce balances things out, while the orange sauce brings a mild heat and a little extra depth. None of the sauces overpower the dish, they work together to coat everything evenly and keep every bite flavorful. Diced tomatoes and corn adds a touch of sweetness that surprisingly works really well here. A sprinkle of herbs throughout helps brighten everything up and keeps the dish from feeling too heavy, even though it is definitely filling. This is comfort food done right. It is messy in the best way, packed with flavor, at least to me it was. If you are looking for something hearty, satisfying, and consistently well made, I will always recommend Anwar's Kitchen. Anwar's Kitchen delivers quality food, and I will keep ordering from them.

It was also annoying for the waitress (not the gal that served us btw - a host perhaps) to give the vibe like they were doing us a favor by applying the $50 Birthday promo that THEY send via email (note, I verbally this flagged when we arrived just in case - but they didn't initially have it on our bill). My head is thinking "calm down--we ate minimally and got drinks. Don't offer it if you're going to have an attitude about adjusting the bill". It was just weird. They also didn't offer any bday dessert treat but we weren't super pressed bc we were so full. The meat was a bit overdone and all kind of tasted the same this visit. Didn't get to try the lamb chops and a few other meats, but still has a nice variety. Salad bar is top notch and consistent, although wish their black beans were plain due to all the meat. Drinks were ok--heavy pours but lower quality wine. The $29 "Wine Experience" package was worth it for my husband who likes variety of wines with his dinner depending on what he's eating. I'm sure I'll come again but it's been bumped a few notches on my Go To list.

Definitely coming back for the kbbq next time! PARKING is important to mention too. If you can find free street parking consider yourself lucky! There is a garage with the entrance next to it that says "PARKING" which they had us pay $20 with cash or Venmo. Parking guy said we had 2 hours to return with a receipt from the restaurant so they'd give us $10 cash back (essentially making parking $10 or $20 if you go over the limit). Inside the restaurant it does say $5 parking on the wall which we asked about but this only applies on Mondays to Fridays, and we came on a Saturday. I'll add a photo of this. I did consider removing a star for the whole parking situation but I'll keep it for now. Other than the parking being a pain (as is typical for the area), we loved it here.

I normally throw a brisket in there too and it's more than enough with the banchan. Spend around $110-$120 for 2 with tip -- no alcohol
