Food is bland. Quality of the food isn't the same like it used to be. Manchurian dry isn't fully cooked. Wouldn't not come back again.

Nostalgic feeling of eating Pav Bhaji in Ahmedabad. Taste is very close to what I remembered and I recommend it highly. The bhakri pizza was delicious too. Chinese bhel was alright. read more

Very poor hygiene. Very shocked the Health department has be informed of the poor restroom standards. I am sure the the chefs do not wash their hands in the only operational restroom with no soap. Waiting staff is polite. Management is sub standard. read more

Best place to have pure vegetarian food with great options. Just please make the service a little quicker

This restaurant is a gem! They artfully present their dishes. The flavor is exquisite! The portions are very much sizable and well worth their fair and reasonable prices. My partner and I shared the pav bhaji and a masala dosa. We both left so full and extremely happy with our meal. Don't forget the mukwas/fennel as you leave! A restaurant definitely worth the visit! read more

We got paav Bhaaji to go....used to be very good. But today it was very bad . Only too much Garamond masala taste... nothing else.

Very less amount of staff! Worst management! It's 2.30 pm of summer AC is shut off I feel bad for staff they were work so hard and super sweaty. Shame on you whoever is the Onwer read more

This place is one of the better places to try different Indian street food items! The Bhel and somosas are good. The taste is as authentic as it gets as well. Would recommend to try if your in the mood for Indian style street food. read more

This was a Disgusting experience mostly because we had a waitress who didn't like her job & it somehow hurt her ego, or self respect to serve us. I would give this place zero stars if possible. The food was mediocre, but that's irrelevant. The waitress did not know what "ghee" was.., which is a surprise as "honest" is supposedly an Indian restaurant. She also suggested that I eat just plain naan if I prefer low spice. She wasn't asked for her expertise opinion on what I should consume, so this suggestion was cringe especially as most people don't just grind down on dry naan. All the while she was staring me down in the strangest way. Worse than the food was the slow service. Our waitress simply had a bad attitude & 30 minutes into it she openly ignored our multiple requests to please remove the extra plates we had finished. Even after eye contact & waving several times, she choose to socialise instead of serving us. My Daal was 100% cold before I could get a side of butter as this place does not use ghee, nor any healthy/authentic ingredients. I'm not sure if she simply hated her job, her life, or didn't want to work during the holidays or was experiencing envy? Either way, she purposely ignored me many times & made it a horrible experience for us. ON A HOLIDAY!! Also, the menus were so ugly. They were cheap, pealing & practically shedding in the table. The tables were sticky as well. The owner(s) clearly hired the wrong people to run the business to the ground. We are definitely NOT visiting again. There's too many good places on the same block. I hope management reads this & makes positive changes. One positive change that would surely promote business would be to replace this waitress that clearly resents customers. read more

The wait is finally over, thanks for bringing Honest to Los Angeles. Pav bhaji Pulav Pani Puri Sandwiches...I mean the entire menu is delicious read more

My dad and I were extremely hungry so we ordered one thali thinking it would be enough for us because when we order in Jay Bharat even one thali is too heavy for us. Anyways we ordered the thali wrapped beautifully and everything. We paid $11.99 for it. When I opened it at my house the 2 shaks were less than half full, the one Gulab Jamun which was desert, didn't even taste like a gulab jamun, it tasted like a rasgulla. Like what the heck. If you want to be choosy, dont open a restaurant. The only thing I recommend eating is the pav bhaji. I tried calling them to ask why was the quantity so little, they did not pick up, I called them 7 times, and my dad even said when he went in there was no rush even. Pls do not order the thali, it's a waste of money read more

Very upsetting. Food was okay but owner doesn't care about COVID. Constantly going in and out of kitchen without a mask. On the other hand, female employee going in and out of kitchen with hair down. In times like this, at the least a mask should be worn. read more

Finally we have A place to have delicious Pav Bhaji... Reminds me of back home...buttery Pav and yummm Bhaji!!! Best in SoCal!!!!! Chaat are good too!!! The restaurant owners were very hospitable and nice people...they were personally going to each table and checking with guests to see how the food was!!! Loved it!!!! Will go back again and again!!! read more

A perfect place for a vegetarian street food cravings! Noodles, manchurian, and pav bhaji are my favorite! Bahu bali sandwich is always a great option for most of my friends, but not for me. Else, the food is great. read more

Edit: Came back here two months later, thought I'd give this place another look. After taking my order, they told me they wouldn't serve me and refunded my order. Funny how they didn't offer to refund my order initially, now they're blacklisting me. I know for a fact the rest of Artesia isn't like this. You won't be missed. read more

We went here on a saturday evening and had to wait about 45 minutes to get a table. The reason primarily being extremely poor service and clueless staff. They were short on menus so we had to wait like 10 minutes to get one. There is only 1 waitress who takes the order for the entire restaurant and she is totally clueless and has no idea what their menu contains and has a No for every customization you would ask for. We ordered a couple pav bhajis, 1 veg cheese grill sandwich which had to be sent back due to absolute lack of veggies and cheese. Ordered took about 50 minutes to arrive and we had to ask about it 3 times. Service was so bad that they kept bringing random orders for other table thinking they were ours. And by the way be careful when that happens since there is a chance those incorrect items will end up on your bill. Overall the food was juat about ok. Nothing too great about it. We have been to the Honest chain of restaurants in Ahmedabad several times and this one in Los Angeles is nothing like the original chain in Ahmedabad. I would suggest staying away from this place for atleast the next several months if at all they end up fixing their service issues. read more

4th time coming here and no more. first time was awesome and the past 3 visits have been pretty bad. Corn Soup had NO CORN and NO TASTE. Chili Garlic noodles-The chilly is literally crushed red pepper smothered over the top. Other than heat, no taste. Dosa-Was not cooked properly and parts were very thick. Mixed Pakora burned and maybe 5 small pieces. OVER PRICED. Waiter told us not to tip on credit card, asked to pay in cash, becasue if we put on the card, he won't see the tip, the owners keep it. Luckily, we had cash on us. read more

Hey Honest! Let me be honest .. honestly, you don't know how to make a dosa! You gotta blend the batter honestly for it to have an honest dosa taste! Thank you. read more

I ordered food from this restaurant again thinking I should give them another chance, and the restaurant owner canceled my order on account of blacklisting me. I ordered so many meals from them in the past and one critical feedback is all it took to be banned from this place. No regrets, there are better options all around Artesia. read more

First time ordering delivery from this place. Although flavorful, the food arrived cold. The samosas were a nice size but lukewarm on outside and COLD inside... not good. I also ordered Chana Masala, the garbanzo/chickpea masala and it was cold. I was also not provided with any naan bread... what the heck??? I everywhere else I have gone or ordered from always peroxide naan bread! I will not be ordering from this place again. And definitely not go to the restaurant. I do not like writing negative reviews but I am truly disappointed in my order. :( read more

Had terrible experience at the restaurant. First they told me and my wife to sit anywhere, and then after 20 min of waiting at a table, one person came and told we can't sit there due to social distancing. There was NO note posted on the table for us to know beforehand, and it was very insulting to see them remove us with that rude behavior. A lot of waiters passed-by when we were waiting but no one said anything about leaving that table vacant. We just left the place after this insulting incident, and the worst thing was there was no apology on their side. read more

People are rude. Instead of French fries they serve you chips with Sandwich. In the picture it shows French fries.

All this People bitching about wait time and bad service need to be quiet. Been here twice yes there is a wait because they are busy secondly they are new in the business. I had already seen difference between my two visit there already. They have utensils and napkins on the table and between the people leaving the table and people being sat down not much wait. Food is really good, and the owner tryst is best to help everybody. Maybe few more months and they will run more efficiently. Best pavbhaji and Pulav in town for sure. bhakri pizza was good and cheese BHEL also. In first visit I have sev puri that was good also. Definitely will be back again soon. read more

Rude Manager! Gave us cold food and was so condescending when we told him about it. He says they don't have "freezer" and that they always serve hot food and make everything fresh. When we told him about the cold dosa he thought we were being dishonest because we didn't like it and wanted a refund. He was literally accusing us of cheating him. He also said "I am not trying to prove you wrong, I am just trying to prove myself right". If somebody is going above and beyond and shows you camera footage that was literally 10 minutes ago and it took him forever to show it to us then there is something fishy and they are definitely not "HONEST" and just trying to prove himself right. read more

Wife & I wanted to do a takeout of Indo-Chinese food. We ordered Gobi Manchurian, Hakka Noodles, Chili Panner and fried rice. Let me be honest about the restaurant Honest. The food was so outrageously bad, not one dish...every single one of them was cooked in oil that was stale. We threw out 50$ worth of food after trying hard to eat it. Whoever cooked that food really needs to find a different line of work. read more

Just came today after long Time and first horrible experience thought let's try second time. I placed an order and littlerly asked them to change the item in less than 2 min but the owner said they already started making item. What a nonsense. read more

We went to Honest today and it was a very disappointing experience. It was so hot outside today, close to 100 degrees that we were looking forward to a nice Indian meal indoors in a cooler temperature. We were seated at a table that had not been cleaned well and there was food still on the table and booths. Then, my husband received a dirty water glass with visible old food on the glass. Also, the waiter hands you open straws with his bare hands, which is very unhygienic. On top of the cleanliness issue, it was very hot in the restaurant as there was no AC and when we asked for the temperature to be cooler, they said the AC is not working and they turned on a tiny fan to swivel in the front of the restaurant. They did not even have any ceiling fans. The food is ok, but when you request spicy Indian food and then eat it in a very hot restaurant, it is very uncomfortable and their is no enjoyment at all. We will not be returning to this restaurant again as there are many better options available on Pioneer, such as Udupi or Rasraj. This was a waste of a meal and we really regret eating here today. read more

Food quality and taste deserves 5 stars but restaurant loses 1 point due to forgetful service staff. The items we ordered were Bahubali Sandwich, Bhakhri Pizza, Cheese Paav Bhaji, Cheese Pulao and Cheese Dosa. The taste of all items was awesome and beyond expectations except the Cheese Dosa. The dosa did not arrive at our table for one hour! The waiter said that there was some mixup going on... after reminding 3 times, finally Cheese Dosa arrived but it had no cheese in it. We could also hear other guests having altercations with the staff, which confirmed that service had issues. The food gets full marks so you might want to give it a try. read more

Pav bhaji is just meh.. I gave this place 3 tries and have been disappointed.. Would not recommend this place for Pav bhaji.

This place has gotten me sick so many times it's not funny. They leave dishes out where the customers can see, their customer service is nonexistent. Their aloo paratha is decent in that it hasn't gotten me sick but stay far away from the manchurian and garlic naan. read more

Fast service V good customer service About food I tried their Bahubali sandwich it was yummy Hakka noodles so-so Gobi Manchurian good clean place to eat A little pricy but worth it read more

We went there two days go to have a late lunch. I would give the food quality and cleanliness 2 stars. I ordered one Palak Paneer stew and one Rice and one Naan and a mango smoothie (which wad quite warm), the food was greasy and hard to digest. They asked for 38$ and didnt even show the bill!! There are many Indian restaurents in that neighborhood we wil definitely NOT go this one EVER again. read more

This place has awesome authentic Indian street food options. We carried out and they let us use a table to eat at because we didn't know the tables at the parks were closed off. A great selection of food and awesome mango lassi. I'll be back soon for sure read more

We went on Sunday for dine in . We ordered 8 pav bhaji 1 masala uttapam and 2 Gobi manchurian for 10 people .manchurian was good but pavbhaji had too much masala and black pepper in it no one can eat it and had potato masala on uttapam without roasting also spicy and not at all like uttapam . We never came back to this restaurant. read more

I can't explain how amazing the food taste! Everyone needs to give this place a shot. They amount of effort and freshness they display in the food shows that they make this with love and it's not just another to-go order. Highly recommend the Gobi Manchurian!! The menu is so much fun cause you got options and options to choose from. Don't by pass the place and go in and try it out yourself ! read more

The food is good here, a lit bit oily but the taste is good. Lots of variety to try. loved the Vada pav and paneer tikka
