    Online order payment

    I would give zero stars if I could. I had an absolutely terrible experience with this establishment and their nonexistent customer service. ​On 12/12, I placed an order directly through their website. The transaction went through successfully, and my card was charged immediately. However, when I arrived at the restaurant to pick up my food, the doors were locked. There was a sign stating they were "closed for maintenance," yet their online ordering system was still active and taking people's money. I have called on three separate occasions to request a refund. Each time, I get the same response, they take my name and number and promise to call me back within the hour. I have yet to receive a single return call. It is clear there is no professional management in place, the place seems to be run entirely by students who have no authority or desire to resolve issues.I am now forced to go through the hassle of disputing the charge with my credit card provider just to get my money back for food I never received. To top it off, I've found that thr "maintenance" was actually due to serious health code violations.Eat your own risk. This place is unprofessional, unreliable, and potentially unsafe.

    LAMB DUM BIRYANI (bottom) CHICKEN DUM BIRYANI (top)

    The lamb dum biryani here is my absolute favorite. Super flavorful and the lamb is moist and tasty! I think about it all the time. The chicken dum biryani is also pretty good, but we got boneless so it was a bit on the drier side. Both biryanis come with two sauces on the side. Even at a level mild, the spice is deliciously noticeable. I've also tried the chettinad fish curry and both the plain and garlic naans. Everything tastes so good and I find myself craving it long after I've finished. Drinking water is given as sealed bottled water. Service is friendly and each time I've went there's been plenty of seating. The parking lot spaces are a bit tight and can get a bit crowded as it shares a smaller parking lot with many other businesses. Can't wait to come back again!

    Saturday dinner service seemed not too bad and there were many open tables. Started off with Punjabi samosas and a sweet tangy dipping sauce- potato stuffing not too spicy heat wise , flaky and still warm when served. Saag paneer was very delicious, with good depth of flavor without heat, and generous amounts of cubed farmers cheese, served with plain basmati rice. I got the lamb dum biryani dish, which came out really piping hot, with cubes boneless braised lamb- no gaminess at all. This dish was very spiced and am glad it had accompanying yogurt sauce to cool it down. They had run out of mango lassi so I tried a Bangalore style drink made with Nannari Sharbat: an Indian sarsaparilla type herb syrup with lots of citrus flavor - I felt it was overly sweet but the waiters supplied me with a couple of glasses of ice on request. The servings are meant for two or more people so I took home a lot of leftovers. I wish more places offered a sampler type of dish for single diners like me! Although it was slow, I did notice that some tables took a long time to be cleared and my own table had no napkins, but I just helped myself to the ones at the next table. Clean and quiet, just the right amount of lighting. Card payment at the table by card readers . Tips requested to be paid in cash.

    My husband's boss caters parties from here so i thought id check out what's so magical about this place. It's much nicer than most Indian joints. They just added punjabi samosa to the menu, had to try it because biryani is not part of my palette. Its beautifully presented on a bed of garnish consisting of cabbage, carrots, and cilantro. The garam masala overpowers the rest of the spices but honestly its not too bad. The staff is attentive, provide bottled water and serve with gloves on. In terms of the restroom, it's the nicest one ive seen and is pretty clean. My only wish is for them to add background music to lessen the sound of clanking dishes.

    Chicken Dum Biryani

    If you're a fan of biryani, make sure to come here and get their goat and chicken dum Biryani! Damn! It's good!!! I got it packed and seriously I can't say no for it! The meat chunks were awesome and it's in the rite amount! The spices are so good and rich but not over, it's tend to be spicy but it's Biryani, a little kick of spicy ness should be there! Ohhh, if you come here ask for more raita, it's so good too!

    Great Indian food in Artesia!…read more Ever since moving to San Jose, I've been craving Indian food when I visit home, and Curry Lounge did not disappoint. We ordered two combo plates, which were more than enough for two people. The portions were generous! The butter chicken was lovely, and it definitely leans into the tomato flavors. However, the two showstoppers for me were the chicken tikka masala and vegetable samosas. They were incredibly flavorful! I also ordered the Masala Chai, which was affordable and tasted authentic. Service was quick and polite. This place is definitely appropriate for a casual lunch or dinner if you're stopping by the Artesia area. Only tough part is finding parking, but the downtown parking lot behind it had technical difficulties when we went, so we parked for free.

    7/3/2026 First time…read moreat Curry Lounge. SAMOSAS (VEGETABLE / POTATO) Good curry and spices that hits you at the end. Strong cumin flavor with visible cumin seeds. The flavor is a bit spicier than I'm used to. The potatoes and peas were fluffy and the outer pastry was flaky with a light crisp. Enjoyed every bite! Came with mint chutney and tamarind chutney. Sadly, the mint chutney tasted a bit funny, like it gone bad. The tamarind chutney was very sweet. I usually eat samomas plain without any chutneys, so it wasn't a problem. The samosas were very good! I would reorder these! PLAIN RICE Not mushy, distinct separation of rice, good texture and it was done well. CHICKEN TIKKA MASALA Got this in medium heat, the spicy level was light, just a light hit of spice. I think I could have handled a bit more heat. Overall tomato-based flavor with a bit of creaminess and the chicken were cut bigger, which was nice and moist. There was a bit of smokiness at the end as well. It was delicious with the rice. This was good, but I've had more depth of flavor from other places. LACHHA PARATHA Haven't tried this before. This had light flaky layers. Light in oil flavor. Overall, it wasn't bad, yet I wanted more flakiness and crisp which I did not get. A touch of salt would have been nice too. This was a bit bland. One thing they did not add to my takeout order is utensils. I did see takeout utensils on the way out, so not sure if they want customers adding their own utensils, but it would have been nice if they packed them in your takeout order. CUSTOMER SERVICE Ordered to go via phone. Early afternoon order on a Friday. Called through their number listed on Google. Friendly over the phone and my order were all correct. Order was ready when I arrived. Friendly service all around. Really enjoyed the curry, rice and samosas! Will definitely return to try more curries in the future! PARKING I do not know if there was any parking in the back of the restaurant, but I luckily found street parking close to the restaurant. It seems there is only street parking for most of the restaurants and stores located on that street.

Diving into the details - the restaurant decor is quite formal and has always been kind of surprising to be given that I often come for casual meals. The staff are well dressed in white button ups and always very polite so it's good vibes all around. If you know me, I'm nothing if not predictable. I always get the butter chicken and unapologetically so. IT IS SO GOOD. I refuse to be shamed into trying other things and if that makes me basic, so be it. In case you haven't guessed, I'm also always getting their garlic naan as well. I've tried other dishes before but nothing beats the chicken. One thing I will say is the spiciness fluctuates every time even though I always ask for medium so do with that what you will.

    The India Restaurant is located in Artesia on the block with all of the amazing Indian restaurants…read more My boyfriend and I were somewhat in the area, and we made a slight detour to explore the area. This was such a great spontaneous discovery. They have a small parking lot in the front where we parked, but then we saw later on that they also have additional parking in the back if you don' see spots in the front. Upon entering the staff was welcoming. The gave us a few tables to choose from that were cleaned and appropriate for 2 people. I just want to say service was impeccable our whole time there. Everyone on their team took turns checking on us, making sure our waters were refilled, and that we had everything we needed to enjoy our meal. So nice!! As we explored the menu, we saw the combination dinners that allowed us to get more variety, which we love. We both picked a different combo so we could share and try more things. My boyfriend enjoys tandoori so he went with the Mix Tandoori Grill ($26.95) that comes with an assortment of Tandoori Chicken, Lamb Seekh Kabab, Chicken Tikka, Fish Tikka served in a sizzling platter on a bed of onions with naan, rice, and gulab jamun. So much food! I picked the India Special ($24.95) which comes with chicken tikka, the choice of lamb or chicken curry which I opted for the chicken, veg, korma, raita, rice, naan, and gulab jamun. What a FEAST!! For the naan I asked for the garlic naan and it was INCREDIBLE. Wow! Might be THEE best Indian food I have ever enjoyed. Between the two of our orders I felt like I had the variety I have when I go eat at Indian buffets. My boyfriend loved the tandooris platter. All of the proteins were cooked perfectly. I assume they were prepped separately to get to the right cooking temp. So funny because my boyfriend was eating the rice while I was indulging in the naan. Dipping the naan in the curry and the korma. Nom Nom Nom! So fun and so delicious. My boyfriend was even saying this is one of the best meals he had in a while. I was so full when the gulab jamun dessert came out at the end but it was so delicious I still ate all of it. Without a doubt the best execution of this dessert I have ever had. We will definitely be back when we find ourselves craving Indian food.

The butter chicken is my favorite, I know it's the most basic b Indian food but everything I've tried has been awesome. Sangeetha's cooking has made me ok with trying some vegetarian food when I thought I'd never like any non meat-centric dish. Swing by, try something new or enjoy something old. Relevant - it's not super spicy, but that's ok to me, it's more accessible to people that might be turned off by excessive spice - I have some scorpion pepper powder that I add to bring the heat, and it doesn't hurt the flavor that I've come to love. They're not open Mondays, but hey - she deserves time off! A suggestion if I may - grab an extra bowl of butter chicken alongside whatever else you get, and throw a fried egg or two on top the next morning for breakfast. DOES NOT HAVE BANANAS! As a professional simian that is of note, but not a negative ;) There are random snacks I've never seen before, I've tried a few and have been happy with what I've sampled. The bottles of mango lassi are super tasty and for me, it helps my heartburn.

Edit: I was going to delete my review, but I got a private message from the owner with a ton of attitude, asking me to take this down, but I don't feel like that's ethical. I don't think three stars is bad. So just to restate. The food is not bad. But I'm not going to take this review down because I don't feel like it's appropriate for the owner to message you privately with an attitude and try to strong-arm you into taking down the review. I have left plenty of reviews about restaurants in Little India, and not once as anybody messaged me with the tone that you have used with me. So I'm leaving it up. Live and learn. Edit: I got a notification that the owner continued to add to her comment, so to answer her questions, I don't remember what I got because it was several months ago, but I remember that it was just okay. It wasn't bad but your approach to dealing with your customers is. I don't think that Yelp has the option of messaging people so you can come at them with a shitty attitude and strong-arm them into trying to change their review. You're honestly just making yourself look worse.

The Malai Chicken, same thing. No flavor. Just salt. The samosa looked very appetizing. But then you get this pungent aroma of olive oil. I think they fry it in olive oil or some oil that's not meant for samosa. Because it stinks and the flavor is awful. The yellow daal was meh so was the Jerra rice and naan. The only got the basmati rice correct. I spent $88 on a lunch no one ate after 1-2 bites. What a waste. I guess I'm used to Kamal Palace where they make really good Indian food.
