I've only ordered from this location, so I can't really speak on the dine-in experience, but I have to say that I absolutely love their Indian food. It is a bit pricey, but the food has been worth it for me. My go-to order is the spicy lamb curry with basmati rice, and it has never disappointed. The lamb is flavorful, the curry is rich, and the rice pairs perfectly with it. I always brave the spiciest level and then regret my life choices later when my tongue is on fire and my stomach is protesting, but honestly it's sooooo delicious that I keep going back anyway. There aren't a lot of Indian restaurants around that I know of, so I'm glad this one is nearby. It's become one of my favorite places to order from when I'm craving something flavorful, comforting, and spicy! read more

Best Indian food in the AV for sure! The service is great as well, they are always accommodating. I love getting their veggie samosas, garlic naan, and their butter chicken or jalfrezi dish! read more

I am vegan, and the staff in there are very accommodating. Manny particularly will let you know what they can do for vegan or some of the other options that they have also. They also have monk chicken curry on the back of the menu. They're very reasonable lunch menus. My only pullback is that I am very particular and love southern Indian cuisine so theirs is just slightly different from that. But love the ambience and the service I go there often. read more

Good food..there was no Mango Chutny of beer. A little disappointed nnnneeeeeeeeeeeyyyyajjjjjbbhjbbnjyyyysgggghhhhjkkkkj

I love coming to this restaurant for lunch, they usually give me enough for where I can have it for dinner. Also today I tried the cauliflower pakora. They could've cooked it a little bit longer. I usually get the mixed pakora but I wanted to try something different. It was good but undercooked in my opinion . Everything else that I got the saag and chicken tiki masala was hitting on all cylinders. I can't say enough good things about this place. The service is good. The only thing as bad as the parking it could get kind of tight but other than that the ambience everything is wonderful. I will be back. Keep up the excellent work. read more

This place was pretty nice, i like the restaurant decor. We tried this spot out a few days ago. We tried the curry lamb and tandoorii chicken plate. I enjoyed how quickly the food was prepared and the service the waitress provided. The flavors on the chicken tandoori was pretty good but a lil dry, i wish the portions was better. Overall, its a place worth trying if you are passing by. read more

If I could give less than one star, I'd give this place negative 5 stars. Lets see..where to start. The "boys" in there act like they don't understand what you're saying, if they don't like what you're saying! Than let's get to the food...what the heck happened to their lentil soup. It literally tasted like lentils and brown beans soaked in luke warm water with a teeny tiny bit of fresh cilantro on top. No taste, no seasoning at all! The Garlic Naan bread was very "non" buttery and garlic-y!! The tea was in following with the theme of the day....absolutely tasteless, with none of the named spices...aka cinnamon, cardamom etc... Overall, this was a less than underwhelming experience. I was sorely disappointed. Will NEVER GO AGAIN!!! read more

Malhi's is my favorite place to eat in Palmdale. Their service is the best, only to be topped by their delicious food. You come in and you feel like family, then you leave feeling full, happy and satisfied. This was my lunch combo today, I got the Chicken Korma this time, and the chicken was very flavorful and tender. Their cucumber water is so refreshing on a hot day like today. We will definitely be back soon. read more

The food was very good and it came out super fast! However, the service staff was extremely cold, didn't know any of the drinks, and didn't smile even ONCE. They acted like they didn't even want us there which was so rude. But like I said the food was good and as a first time experience with Indian food it was overall positive. read more

Been coming to this location for a few years now and have tried several of their dishes. My go-to, however, is their chicken tikka masala, which is always on point. Meat is tender and the creamy sauce pairs perfectly with their rice or naan (garlic). Recently, I've also been ordering the mango chicken - think "Indian version of orange chicken". So good. If you like your food spicy ask for "Indian hot". Service is prompt and attentive. It's a cool vibe for a strip mall and nice enough for a business lunch. read more

10/10. Food is absolutely delicious, service is great. I always get the mango chicken and chicken tikka masala. Don't forget to get the spicy garlic naan. I love the table sauces too. Very nice and clean in the restaurant with a calm ambiance. read more

Let's let a 5 star out for a family run business that has been hitting bangers for as long as I can remember. I have never ever had a bad meal or service or experience here in the many years of living in the AV. Malhis is solid Indian food and serviced with a smile. The plate ware and setting and decorations make you feel at home Indian family style. The beer selection decent with the Indian beers. The menu has a good variety of items and they are fresh ingredients. The prices are decent for what you get, you will eat well here... I love the food service and the setting. If you are in AV and need an Indian meal, come to Malhis and enjoy. read more

They restaurant was bustling as we arrived with tables filled with happy people and people coming and going to pick up food. The guy who took our order was patient and helpful. Food was amazing: Shrimp tikka masala Naan Samosa with chana Mango lasi And so many other things we tried: we did request everything be "indian spicy" which is listed as the hottest in their menu; but alas it was not spicy enough. (Do not go based of my spice rating we eat habaneros for breakfast here) Did we have left overs that did not survive the evening yes: did we order extras of what we finished to bring home? Yes we did. Bring your stretchy pants and enjoy 10/10 read more

I ordered two lunch combos of chicken curry with rice and naan (price:40$) it tasted HORRIBLE!!! The chicken is mushy cubes in watered down sauce with a Minimal amount of seasoning,they all give you a small portion of curry with LOADS of rice & hard naan...this is not what I'd consider Indian food if you want authentic Indian food don't go here0 out of 10 would not recommend read more

I come to the Palmdale location only when I don't feel like driving to Royal Tandoor in SCV, owner for the Lancaster location is rude and that restaurant is dirty so we never go there. Our go to dishes are the Chicken Makhni, Choley Puri, Chaat! Rice is missing something, should have peas or something, Raita needs cucumbers instead of potatoes in it. Their mango lassi is the best and so is the kheer and gulab jamun, more dessert options are needed. Their to go portions are smaller than when you dine in and they skimp on things and the price has increased drastically so that's a disappointment. Their tea tastes old, for the price for a sit down restaurant it should be made fresh to order, their chicken biryani also tastes old, the meat used for that dish is gamey and low quality every single time to where I have started picking the chicken pieces out, please improve that. read more

Very good food and excellent service! Grateful for their attention and clean environment! Delicious food!!!

Malhi's is hands down one of my favorite Indian restaurants I have ever been to. The is food here is consistently delicious - flavorful, fresh and just so comforting. The samosas are perfectly cripsy, all vegeterian curries are rich, and the garlic naan is basically impossible to stop eating. Also, can't forget the unlimited chai refills. The service is always friendly and welcoming, whether you're dining in or picking up takeout. Good laidback ambiance. I have been here couple times and it has never dissapointed me. read more

DO NOT PASS THIS PLACE UP!! If you think you have had good indian food, think again. This place has been here since 1988 and FOR A REASON. Came in at 530 on friday, ordered 2 sides of naan, chicken curry, and chicken tikka, and OH MY LORD IS IT S TIER. So we get in and seat our selves, given cucumber water that was so refreshing. The waiter was on point. The Chicken tikka comes on a skillet with a bed of green bell peppers and onions, topped with the chicken. So good i stopped myself eating so i can save some for later. the chicken curry was served in a bowl and the naan is a MUST. It complimented both dishes so well. Again, Don't sleep or pass this place buy.10/10 food, will come again read more

Stopped by here on a drive up to the Angeles National Forest for a hot cup of chai. Great kadak chai and yummy tomato lentil soup. Beautifully designed restaurant and easy parking. Our waiter Mandie was so nice and even recommended we stop by Lancaster to see the Gurudwara and Lancaster Hindu Temple. Both were beautiful and a must see! We will be back. Thank you, Malhi's! read more

Chicken tikka masala with garlic naan is my favorite. I tried their tea and that was also so good! Good service and not long wait times at all even when busy. read more

Malhi's Indian Cuisine - Chicken Tikka Masala with Garlic Naan - Indian Near Me - Palmdale, California

I went here with my family and we got lamb tikka marsala, garlic naan, paneer pokora, lamb vindaloo, and bengan bharta (eggplant dish). I really like the decor of the building as well as the Indian music that played in the background. Chutney came complimentary. The paneer pokora reminded me of tofu and looked like a chicken nugget. The eggplant was very good. The chicken briyani was ok. My biggest issue is that the meat wasn't that tender. The vibdaloo in particular was a bit chewy. However, the flavors of everything was excellent. The naan was not excessively oily. The rice cups (comes with each curry order) are more shallow than they appear to be. An order of curry form here would make a perfect dinner. read more

Amazing authentic Indian cuisine! The flavors were rich with perfectly spiced dishes that weren't overpowering. My husband Loves the chicken Tika Masala because it's always so creamy and tender. The garlic naan was fresh and fluffy and the Chicken Tandoori was bursting with flavor. Service was friendly and very attentive also the atmosphere is warm and inviting. Highly recommend for anyone craving delicious Indian food! read more

Excellent food. Love the butter chicken and garlic naan. Fast take out and friendly dine-in service. Nice ambiance

Almost gave a two star and they could've gotten a five star however this was my first time eating at this restaurant called in in order to go straight from their website chicken tikka masala, Sri Lankan chicken curry two orders of naan should've been 35 bucks I get there and it was $52 I pay I leave and I start to think about it and doing the math in my head I go back to the website to confirm and yes they overcharged me so I call and they tell me that they have raised their prices and they haven't changed the website he apologized. He was nice about it but nothing other than an apology. I will say the food was good but that's a big difference to go from 35 to 52 and again this menu I ordered from their website. read more

Excellent food .....very flavorful and unique dining service and waiters are friendly.....

Amazing food! Get the Sizzling paneer and thank me later. With the green sauce it always it's the spot

Wonderful meal. We came over to eat some of our favorite foods. We like their lentil soup which comes gratis at lunchtime only. And then we ordered a favorite appetizer that Mr. Picky just loves which is Chat Papari. It's so yummy and there's nothing else quite like it. It's a dish made with crunchy fried chips, a little bit of potato and garbanzo beans and then all finished off with a wonderful combination of yogurt and sweet tamarind sauce. So it's a sweet and savory start to the meal and Mr. Picky absolutely loves it, so much so that I felt compelled to sacrifice and push my last small serving to him across the table in order to enhance his happiness. The next thing we ordered was the delicious Mango Garlic Sesame Naan with extra mango chutney. Because it's worthy of attention, we ate just that one item by itself before ordering the main meal. Finally we got around to ordering our favorite entrees. We both like Tikka Masala dishes which are house specialties and he always orders the chicken version while I think the lamb version is exceptional! We don't like the dessert options, we'll stop somewhere else for that, but the aforementioned menu is what you should try sometime, companied by the fabulous Mango Lassi drink and some Punjabi tea. A real delight!!! read more

They don't need any more 5 star reviews clearly but I love this place so much! It's authentic Indian food that is the best you can get. I'd recommend the one in Palmdale. Get the chicken tikka masala and you won't stray away from it again. Wars have been fought over the spices they use in this food because it's so good lol. read more

We enjoy the navrattan korma, bengin barta, mango lassi, and the samosas. Typically do takeout and it's good value because the portion sizes are pretty big. read more
