I had a curry and tikka masala combination with rice. The garlic naan was absolutely phenomenal and so fresh! I'm already looking forward to coming back and trying another one of their breads that caught my eye and looked incredible. I took a picture of it! I also love the unique experience of ordering what you'd like and paying at the end. It creates such a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. I'm excited to return and explore more of their yummy menu. You can also buy some great international food products in this casual and comfy environment. There's also a wide selection of Indian spices, herbs, and pantry staples and hard-to-find ingredients for traditional Indian cooking. It is awesome. Thank you! Support local.

The location is kept well maintained and clean. Parking is never an issue, but expect crowds and long lines around 12 pm and after 5 pm. Customer service is overall excellent. Prices are super reasonable for the area. We had family visiting us from out of state last week, and they dropped by here for lunch with my dad per our recommendation. My folks from out of state later told me they really enjoyed the food. The menu is super vast with an excellent selection of items. I especially love their chai. The location offers both indoor and outdoor seating.

We have been to this restaurant 3 times. The first time was 15 months ago on our way back from a…read moreday of whale watching with our 14 year old twin granddaughters. I told them to order plenty of food, since we'd worked up an appetite on the boat, and we would take home the leftovers. They ordered a lot - appetizers, curries and dosas - and there were barely any leftovers. It was late and the restaurant was pretty empty, so we got lots of service attention. Everything was delicious. Because we enjoyed our first time here so much, my husband and I came back about a month later on a weekday for an early lunch right as they were supposed to open. There didn't seem to be anyone actually working the seating area; a person came out eventually and told us that someone would take our order soon. It was quite a while before anyone came, the food took a long time to be served, and the food wasn't as good as I remembered. Very disappointing, which is why I'm giving 4 stars, not 5. Yesterday, driving back from Ojai on the 101 at lunchtime, we decided to give the restaurant another try. The service was very prompt and friendly and the food was very good. We ordered a vegetarian thali and an onion rava masala dosa to share between the two of us. The thali gave us a chance to have a sample of lots of their dishes. The dosa was awesomely crunchy, with large portions of sambar and several chutneys. We were stuffed before we finished our meal. Our total bill was only $30, plus tax and tip. We will definitely come back again, hopefully with a group of friends so we can order a lot of dishes and share. I have to assume that our one disappointing lunch was just a bad day - maybe their staff was out sick or something. But two of our three meals here were great and I look forward to eating that dosa again! We would come here more often, but we live half an hour away.

Really disappointed with our meal here. We ordered naan expecting it to be freshly made, but what…read morecame out was clearly frozen naan that had just been reheated. When I asked if it was made fresh, I was told yes -- which was simply not true. We also ordered Karahi chicken curry, expecting the chicken to be cooked in the curry itself, but it tasted like they took already-cooked chicken and just dropped it into a pre-made sauce. Nothing about it tasted freshly prepared. For the price, I expected authentic, made-to-order food. Instead we got reheated, pre-made items passed off as fresh. Won't be returning.

I've always loved their chicken sandwich and nuggets, so I already knew the food here was good. But on my latest visit, I finally tried the Classic Cheeseburger after people had been recommending it to me for MONTHS, and now I understand why. JUICY. Flavorful. Messy in the best way. Just an incredibly satisfying vegan burger, and one I've been thinking about ever since. Hey, Sunshine Kitchen continues to be such a gem in Culver City. Whether you're vegan or just looking for really good plant-based food, this is absolutely one to have on your list.

The service was somewhat questionable, with us having to ask for napkins and our last drink, and them telling us we already have it, when we clearly didn't. The tables are also microscopic and the biggest one only fits 2 people. Yeah, probably won't ever be back for some yucky expensive food. The hot sauce bottles were all near empty, if that's any indication of the flavors. The places looks cute and all but yeah, no thanks.

If you're vegetarian and craving something beyond the usual options, this spot is an absolute must-try. Tucked away quietly, it's a true hidden gem serving up incredibly flavorful and satisfying Vietnamese vegetarian dishes. The food is delicious--each dish tastes fresh, well-balanced, and thoughtfully prepared. From fragrant noodle soups to crispy rolls and savory rice plates, every bite was full of depth and comfort. The space is clean and welcoming, and the service is warm without being overbearing. Prices are very reasonable for the quality and portions you get. Highly recommend to anyone looking to explore vegetarian cuisine beyond the typical. It's a wonderful way to enjoy Vietnamese flavors--plant-based style!

Service is typical Asian, lady comes takes your order and if you need something gotta flag her down. Pay at the counter. Basically order, eat and leave.

The lighting is warm and intentional, creating an intimate, upscale vibe without feeling pretentious. Whether you're on a romantic date or just catching up with friends, the beautiful interior design--complete with subtle traditional accents and modern elegance--sets the perfect stage for a memorable meal. For dinner I kept it classic with the Aloo Gobi and Basmati Rice, and it was executed to perfection. The cauliflower was tender yet retained a slight crunch, and the potatoes were buttery soft. The rice was incredible fragrant, fluffy, and served in a generous portion. It was the ideal canvas for the rich flavors of the Gobi. The service was impeccable--attentive but never hovering. It's rare to find a spot where the visual beauty of the space matches the quality of the kitchen, but this place nails it. I'll definitely be returning to explore more of the menu soon! I recommend Banana Leaf!

The food was fantastic, and the setting is great too -- both indoor and outdoor seating, with a comfy, relaxed vibe that made it easy to settle in and actually enjoy the meal rather than rush through it. The owner was there and couldn't have been more welcoming. She's been at this for two decades and that warmth comes through. She even brought us a little surprise -- some chocolate or a small cake, i dont exactly remember -- but it was a genuinely nice touch that stuck with us. Perfect spot! We will be back.

The ambiance was really wonderful, especially in the outside courtyard area, they have beautiful string lights above with heaters running as well.

The service was a little on the slower side, but we were the only table sitting outside and there a little bit later in the night. Also, The peanut butter chocolate pie did not have much peanut butter, it was mostly just a chocolate pie, still delicious though. So if you're a peanut butter lover, know that it is a very misleading name, haha. The drinkable chocolate dessert is also very bitter and I would not recommend that one.

I've been trying to eat more vegetarian forward meals, so Happy Veggie has been able to fulfill those cravings.

It's too bad that this review is only listed under bakeries because there's so much more here. The bakery items are wonderful. My personal favorites are the little individual tiramisu and their chocolate covered coconut balls, which I've never seen any place else. They're huge! All the routine pastries are available and freshly made, as well as as a couple Persian delicacies. Try the cream puffs! But what I also love about this place is their breakfasts. Some of the local breakfast places get too crowded with long rating lines but here you can be seated in a covered shaded area outside or Next door at the restaurant that they're attached to. Some of my favorites are their omelettes and scrambles, and although I can probably make those myself at home, they somehow make them taste better than any place else. I particularly like the vegetable omelette. Of course they have a tasty avocado toast that seems to be a local favorite. The eggs Benedict are perfectly prepared and the.Challah French toast is definitely worth breaking a diet over and what is an excellent breakfast without a great cup of coffee?
