My boyfriend and I discovered this place after we drove 9 hours on a road trip back from visiting…read moremy family. We were craving Indian food and our other go-to spot is closed on Sundays. Man, this place is top tier Indian Food in Artesia, CA! We arrived at 5:30pm on a Saturday and got seated immediately. They were quick to come with water and take our order. Luckily, we already knew what we wanted so we ordered that. The wait staff was very kind and checking in on us constantly. The flavors and spice within their Punjabi Butter Chicken and Lamb Vindaloo is outstanding. This was the first time we tried the Chili Garlic Naan and I HIGHLY recommend! The Mango Lassi is always 10/10 and a perfect pairing to the spicy entrees. We had leftovers and ordered some more Jeera Rice and Chili Garlic Naan to enjoy the next day as a second meal. I highly recommend coming here if you have never had authentic Indian food to get the best experience!

I had a huge craving for some Indian food as I hadn't had any in a while. This was long overdue !…read moreMy takeout order included chicken tikka masala, which was so yummy (I do prefer a more tomato-y flavor base but it was still seasoned so well) ! However, I don't think the entree should be almost $30 and rice isn't even included. I also ordered cheese naan on the side which wasn't the softest, fluffiest naan I've ever had but it still did the job. (: The staff was friendly and welcoming & the restaurant looked clean & had pretty decor. Overall, my food was tasty, my craving was satisfied & I would order from here again, maybe even try the butter chicken next time.

So sad this place is gone. Now it's some tacky, low energy restaurant. Really sad!!!…read more The new place had dull vibes walking in, felt like a cafeteria with mismatched plastic water bottles and pre-packaged lassi...it felt like a knock off Yantra...clearly riding off the prestige on Google and Yelp! Most importantly the menu and people trying to wait on us had next to nil for people skills. Even after pointing out what I wanted they still selected the wrong things... Wife and I spent about a year visiting artesia to get wedding garments for us and our respective wedding parties...and this was always our first stop! Shout out to the Yantra owner, Raj, and the hostess who always worked with Raj! Again, so sad to see it go...after becoming regulars...

The server was friendly and fast and listed the house specials and lunch specials. We decided to order the chaat, tikka masala, kashmiri kofta and garlic naan. Each dish was tasty and not hot (ordered mild). The chaat was a new dish that I tried which had crispy balls in a cold yogurt sauce. Was interesting and unexpected but not sure I'd order it again. Overall decent restaurant for a quick lunch.

I tried Indian food for the first time this past Friday thanks to my brother & sister in law. I…read moredon't know why I haven't tried it before but oh my -- it was sooo good! I loved it. Everything they ordered was delicious. I sort of third wheel myself to their dinner plans so they ordered before I arrived. I'm honestly not a fan of curry but they ordered 3 types of curry and I loved all of them! & the Naan -- OMGGGG. They ordered the garlic naan and 10/10. Sooo good. The inside is clean and well decorated. Lighting is dimmed which I love! The waiters were attentive but also gave us space -- does that make sense? They were quick & welcoming. Overall great experience. I'll be bringing my husband next time. Spacious parking, there's also parking in the back of the building & street parking.

Update as of August 16th, 2026…read more We haven't been there in a few months, so we decided to take my mom. We were welcomed by new staff there. Let me tell you, the staff before was fine, but this staff now is excellent. We had the opportunity to meet Aditya, who was our server, and he was incredible, along with this young lady, who is probably one of the sweetest waitresses we've met. They had a few other people working that were very friendly, and going to the restaurant is even more enjoyable. Food is always going to be good there, and they are very consistent.

This was one of the few dishes that did not contain dairy. Relative to the roti it was served with, the portion could have been bigger by filling the bowl more. The flavors were good with the smokiness of the eggplant and the warmth of the spices. - bajra roti (2/10): this was not very pleasant to eat. It was much thicker than i was expecting which made it hard to tear into small pieces and chew. WOULD I GO BACK? Maybe, though there are other nearby places that I have enjoyed more.

We opted for the Bhookhe special curry (fox nut), the Sartaj (thali), gatte curry (gram flour), and falouda kulfi. Flavors of the dishes were nice, however the fox nut curry was overly sweet and the various thali dishes were a bit bland. Our favorite was the gatte curry and their naan. Dessert was solid.
