My wife and I are grateful to have this authentic gem of a restaurant in our neighborhood. Sham,…read morethe owner is such a kind man and as soon as we walk in the door, his staff makes us feel incredibly welcome. Every time we dine here, the service is attentive, the food is consistently delicious, the prices are more than fair. We always end our meal with the same reaction of "I'm glad we came here, that was delicious!" The space is tastefully perched on the 2nd floor providing an escape from the busyness of Wilshire Blvd below and a sense of calm during our meal. We are fans of the booth seating next to the large windows which offer an elevated change of scenery. We look forward to joining them for the $14.99 AYCE lunch buffet, which at that price point seems like a steal given the authenticity and high quality of food they are offering. Thank you again for being what I consider a staple in the Brentwood dining community!

Also unlimited rice pudding for dessert how can it get better? And the mango lassi ooooweee. It's authentic, only high quality Ingredients and service is absolutely on point.

It's been there for over 20 yrs. The lunch buffet is always fresh and good. Every dinner I've had here has been good. The vegetarian thali is really good.

Now that we have tried it, we'll be back again soon! You know how sometimes all the dishes at an Indian restaurant start tasting the same? That is most definitely not the case here. Every dish had a unique flavor profile, and some were quite different from anything I'd had before. Purple potato ragda patty: This was by far my favorite - it was practically a work of art. Sweet, sour, savory, tangy, salty. So good, like a party in my mouth. Calangute calamari: Had a nice crisp exterior. The accompaniments, especially the passion fruit salsa, were incredible. Truffle mushroom kulcha: If you like mushrooms, you should definitely get this beautiful puffed bread. Asado branzino fillet: Slightly spicy and salty, more filling than you might expect Butter chicken: A well done Indian standard Pheni nest: A delightful, sweet but not too sweet dessert. Loved the contrast of textures They have a charming outdoor patio, and service was helpful and attentive.

I was glad to see more upscale Indian restaurants are opening in LA. Fitoor seemed like it fit the…read morebill. Went there for lunch on a Sunday. The place was moderately busy; but, there appeared to be only 2 servers and a busboy taking care of the entire main dining room and the patio. They seemed pretty stressed. The noise level was higher than I expected. It was due to several families appeared to have run into each other and they were all standing around having loud conversations while being oblivious to other guests' personal space. As far as the food, the menu looked enticing offering upscale dishes with ingredients like truffle. Good concept; unfortunately the execution was a fail. The truffle mushroom kulcha had no truffle flavor; not even the 2 slices of truffle on top. The crust was quite tough; so much so that it was difficult to cut even with a steak knife. My jaw was sore after chewing on the crust for a while. The calamari was also quite tough and chewy. The purple potato ragda patty was the only dish I thought was decent. The black truffle jhinga biryani special was also completely void of truffle flavor and a bit overly salty. Then when the check came it had a "Surcharge Fee" of 3.5% without any explanation. It turned out to be a fee to help pay for the kitchen staff. This hit one of my pet peeves. Why is it not the restaurant's responsibility to pay their staff a fair wage? We are already paying for the meal and a 20% tip and they just sneaked in a mandatory "surcharge". While it was just a few dollars it was more of an issue of principles. Why not just be honest and have the guts to raise the prices of the dishes if they can't afford to pay the staff a fair wage?

When it's not perfect because this is actually handmade food with raw ingredients it's still very, very good. Also, it's the only place with Biriyani (Pakistani Karachi style with Potatoes).

Even tho we moved away, we will still make plans to travel 1 hr+ specifically to eat here every couple if months, it's that good. We've tried most of the menu at this point and even tho we have our favorites, we've never had a bad dish here. If you like Indian food, this is aist try spot. Ambiance is fairly intimate and the service is attentive but not disruptive. Parking sucks in the area and there's only a very small parking lot in the rear (like parking for 4 vehicles), but we'll usually park at a shared commercial parking lot around the corner and sneak over for an hr. If we were still local we'd probably prefer to order ahead and take it home just to avoid the lack of parking.
