    Lunch special
    Elle M.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Clean and spacious inside- booths feel private- service was impeccable.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Fast, friendly, food was good size portions, AMAZING FLAVORS, tons of choices! And garlic and cheese naan was cherry on top! Mango chutney was delicious! Everything was great! Will be back to try more dishes!!

    Lunch special with chicken vindaloo and chicken tikka masala
    Mary V.

    Definitely worth every penny! From the moment we took our first bite, we knew we'd found a hidden gem. Every dish was packed with incredible flavor without being overwhelming. The portions were generous, the prices were more than fair, and they definitely don't skimp on the meat. The chicken biryani was absolutely delicious and incredibly flavorful. The only thing we wished for was more cashews and almonds because they added such a wonderful texture and richness to the dish. It was actually our first time having biryani with cashews and almonds, and we absolutely loved it--they tied all the flavors together beautifully and made the dish even more memorable. We also ordered the lunch special with chicken vindaloo and chicken tikka masala, which came with rice, naan, and a Nepalese salad. Every single thing on the plate was fresh, comforting, and full of flavor. The naan was so soft, warm, and delicious that we couldn't resist ordering more. What made this meal truly special, though, was the kindness we experienced. Everyone welcomed us with genuine warmth and went above and beyond to accommodate our food allergies. That level of care meant so much to us and made us feel comfortable and valued from beginning to end. The only thing that genuinely surprised us was how quiet the restaurant was on a Sunday afternoon while other, much more mediocre restaurants in the same plaza were crazy busy with a long waitlist. It's a clean, peaceful, inviting space, and we couldn't understand why it wasn't packed. This restaurant deserves so much more recognition than it's getting. The food was exceptional, the service was heartfelt, and the entire experience left us smiling long after we walked out the door. We sincerely hope more people discover this place because it deserves every bit of success that comes its way. We'll definitely be coming back, and we can't wait to try more of the menu. If you're thinking about trying it, do yourself a favor--you won't regret it.

    Wow! What can I say more than wow? [[HIGHLIGHT]]And I only walked in the smell of the food was intoxicating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We were greeted immediately and sat. We ordered the chicken korma, the sizzling chicken Momo, and the chicken tikka along with garlic naan. I have eaten a lot of Indian food in my life and this place was absolutely delicious. The presentation, the flavor, the texture. The sizzling chicken Momo was something that we had never tried as it was off the Napolis menu and it did not disappoint. So many amazing flavors it was a completely different flavor profile from anything I've tried before. If you haven't tried this place you really should..

    Lunch Special

    Met with a friend here for lunch today and got their lunch special with Saag paneer and chicken tikka masala. Everything was really good and for those of you who want a smaller portion of menu items so you can try more stuff , this size was perfect. I wish the naan stayed more soft but when you're dipping it, it don't matter much. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Good service and plenty of seats.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Lunch special naan, saag paneer, chicken tikka masala, salad, and dessert.
    Lyric R.

    Great food, nice and clean interior, polite service. I've tried most of the Indian food nearby and this is the best. It's certainly a little better eating in than getting delivery but I generally expect that. Their new lunch specials are a great deal!

    Erick L.

    The chili chicken is just delicious. They ask you what level of spicy do you want it from a scale 1-5 and to me three was just perfect. Service was excellent. On a Friday at 5:40, there was no waiting (but there should be because of how delicious the food is )

    Chicken Biryani Chicken Tikka Masala Garlic Cilantro Naan
    Isaac Z.

    Food was amazing. Ordered one Chicken Biryani, one Chicken Tikka Masala, and one order of Garlic Cilantro Naan and it was all delicious. The servers were friendly, and the inside was decorated and clean! I have to come back to try more of what they have to offer :)

    Donna J.

    My daughters treated me to lunch and the food was delicious. Everyone was friendly and the lunch special was so good ! It made it easy to pick from their menu and prices were reasonable. I definitely recommend this restaurant and will be back. You want be disappointed ... everything on the menu looks delicious. On a scale one to 10... it's definitely a 10+ . Their cucumber lemon water so refreshing. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance is relaxing and refreshing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Mango Ice Cream
    Bonnie S.

    Still excellent food and service. We order it to go often but enjoy dining in as well. Tried the mango ice cream which we all loved. Very fresh and not too sweet. I absolutely love the nepali salad that they serve at lunch. Wish they kept it on the menu for dinner, lucky me they had some available that night. Will continue coming back and recommending it to everyone. Nice quiet and clean restaurant.

    Chicken Biryani, Chicken Tikka Masala, Lamb Curry, Cheese Garlic Naan (not in the picture)

    Very flavorful food! The staff really payed attention on your satisfaction. [[HIGHLIGHT]]And the place is clean, welcoming, and had a nice presentation of the restaurant's heritage.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Will definitely come back, and bring friends!

    Yes the food is fantastic and yes you should go. Stop reading the reviews, grab your friends/family, and get over to this place right now. From depth of flavors to exceptional staff, this establishment will satisfy a foodie's hunger for goodness. Oh yeah, and their lunch specials are on fleek.

    Mouthwatering food with tons of options…read more This is a place to try whether you are vegetarian or not. We went for lunch and it was busy but we were still able to get a table immediately. The staff is friendly and helpful and we loved how many options the menu had. The dry chili paneer was just the right spice for me and very flavorful. My husband enjoyed a masala. But hands down I loved the Frankie street food! We will definitely bring our friends back here!

    Kailash Parbat was recommended to us by family, and we recently dined here with my in-laws. We…read morereally enjoyed some of the dishes we ordered, while a few others were just okay or a bit lacking in flavor. Our favorites were the Vada Pav, Pav Bhaji (we ordered the Classic), Chole Bhatura, and the Jaamun Shot. The Papdi Chaat was exactly what we expected and was decent. The Bhel Puri and Pani Puri were probably our least favorite dishes. For the pani puri, the pani was bland and lacking flavor and the puri barely had any filling. The Bhel Puri was more tart than I expected and could have used a bit more green chutney and sweet chutney. I didn't try it myself, but my father-in-law ordered the Masala Jaljeera and he didn't seem to be a big fan. He mentioned that maybe he should have ordered the Kokum Jeera Soda instead. The restaurant is clean and the ambiance casual. Service was a little slow at the beginning, but once we placed our order, the food came out very quickly. I do wish they had given us a little more time to enjoy a few dishes before bringing out the rest. Our table felt pretty crowded when everything came out at the same time and we were shuffling dishes to make space while we ate. To be fair, we ordered a lot of food, and we probably could have asked for the dishes to be brought out in stages. Overall, I'm giving it 4 stars, though I'd probably place it somewhere between 3.5 and 4. I'd definitely come back to try other menu items if I was in the area.

    My first visit finally after driving past it for months. (I…read moremissed out having not stopped in sooner but I'll definitely be making up for that now!) I received the kindest welcome and delightful service and help from Nisha, who explained the dishes to me and recommended The Combo for my first visit. Such a great suggestion since I had never dined at an Indian Cuisine restaurant before. Each one of the servings in the combo was incredibly flavorful, delicious and very filling. I loved each and every one of them! I even had leftovers to bring home, which I am already looking forward to enjoying. The garlic naan bread is out of this world! Their Mango Lassi is indescribably delicious and Nisha informed me that the yogurt they use is made fresh in the restaurant. It tasted so clean and amazing. Definitely going to be hooked on that!!! The atmosphere was so nice and peaceful after a long busy and stressful week. Exactly what I needed. No loud music or noise that people had to talk over. Very, very nice and relaxing. Thank you for the atmosphere as well. Nisha also blessed me with a rice pudding to try and I can hardly wait to make it my evening snack. Thank you so much for making me feel so welcome on my first visit. I already feel like part of the family with the way Nisha made me feel so valued as more than just a customer......I left there honestly feeling like family. I'll be seeing you all soon and often! Blessings, Cynthia

    Overview: Great deal, food, and service, perfect for a quick dine-in meal or ordering to-go…read more ---- We were driving back to San Diego from Mammoth and was craving Indian Food. We found this place online and decided to fuel our bellies here. Upon entering there are seats on both sides of the restaurant with the serving area and cashier in the middle. We decided to dine-in and they helped us with ordering. I ordered the Dinner Special Thali ($15.99) which comes with 2 entrees, daal, rice, naan, mango lassi, samosa or kheer. I was allowed to choose 3 entrees of my choice from the select options they had in their serving area (not from all the entrees they have on their menu). I like options and variety, so from their limited entrees I chose mushroom saag (spinach based), chicken tikka, and their paneer tikka. I'm glad I got to taste different options but I like the chicken the best. I also chose the kheer and got the mango lassi as my drink. My boyfriend ordered the butter chicken ($14.99), basmati rice ($3.99), and the cheese naan which we asked if they can add garlic and they kindly did ($4.99). Everything was delicious and came out in a timely manner. On the tv's they were playing Indian music and their music videos, which were entertaining to watch. ---- Overall: the price point and tasty food are reasons we'd be stopping by if we're ever in the area again or driving back to SD, definitely check this place out if you want some yummy Indian food in Riverside at a reasonable price!

The food is the best Indian food I've e ever had. The server was nice, attentive and had our food out in no time. When i told him how good the food was he was very pleased and appreciative. The samosas are 12/10. Perfection in every way and their sauces are perfect. I split the butter chicken with my partner and it was melt in your mouth. Paired with the garlic naan it is a whole experience. Also 12/10. All that for very reasonable prices. About 15 dollars for the butter chicken that I split and still had leftovers. Over 5 stars for this place.

    Having been here multiple times in the last decade, our visit yesterday was a bit disappointing,…read moreand I can no longer give this spot 5 stars. For a restaurant in a touristy area, it still lands at a solid 3.5 to 4 stars, but the experience has definitely taken a step back. Cleanliness - there's a fly constantly going up and down the window we sat next to. It was getting a lot of my attention but alas I did not have a fly swatter. Lucky sob!!! Food - portion sizes felt smaller. While Indian dishes aren't typically huge, the presentation this time made them look a bit meager--it could be the dinnerware, the presentation? I don't know. Flavor-wise, something has changed for the worse. The Chicken Tikka Masala was decent, but lacked the rich depth and spice profile of our previous visits. The Fish Vindaloo suffered a similar fate. It wasn't bad, but it lacked that bold, signature Indian flavor. Also, using salmon felt like a misstep; its strong flavor tends to clash with vindaloo spices rather than absorb them. Side note, this dish was not at all spicy. And the server never asked us about the spiciness level of any of the dishes we ordered. Maybe they only offer non-spicy for all their dishes?? The same vindaloo dish at our favorite Indian restaurant in L.A. is very spicy and full of other favors. Service was just ok. The restaurant was quiet, with far more empty tables than occupied ones, yet the food took quite a while to come out. At one point, at least four servers were standing around the counter watching the dinning hall. Yet, other than delivering the food, no one came to any of the tables to check on them once the food had been delivered. Multiple times nearby tables waved their hands in the air to get attention after they got their food. We overheard one young man asking for hot sauce and chuckled - so someone else wanted their food spicier, too! Come here if you REALLY love touristy/Americanized Indian or want some vegetarian choices. Personally, I'll find dinner elsewhere next time in Big Bear.

Each combo meal comes with rice, lentil, naan, salad or Raita. We had (1) Chicken Curry with Raita. Raita was very watery. As was the lentil. Lentil was also watery. The chicken curry was good. (2) Tandoori chicken with salad. The salad was the better choice than Raita. The Tandoori chicken was good. Again the lentil was too watery. The rice and naan were good. We also had the mango lassi, which is a shake with yogurt and mango. It was delicious but I wish it had come earlier (while I was waiting for my food). The drink did not come until after my food has arrived. Service was adequate. Nothing exceptional but gets the job done. Portion size was good.
