Indian Food

Smokey Chicken Tikka

$26.00

Smoky chicken pieces are marinated and cooked in a tandoor oven.

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely fantastic Indian restaurant in Pasadena! From the moment we walked in, the service was excellent and welcoming. The food was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care, everything we tried was delicious. We had the Fish 65, Samosa Chaat, Pani Puri, Smoky Chicken Tikka and few other dishes, and every dish was packed with flavor. Great location, excellent service, and truly delicious food. Definitely one of the best Indian restaurants we’ve tried in the Pasadena area, or in LA in general and we’ll absolutely be coming back. Highly recommend!”

Curry

Chicken Tikka Masala

$25.00

Tandoor-cooked chicken is served in a creamy tomato curry sauce.

“Absolutely DELICIOUS! The classic chicken tikka masala was perfect, and the Indo-Chinese noodles were a hit. The spice levels were also very accurate, so don’t get spicy if you’re not ready for a real burn. 😅 The interior looks better in person, with great decor and lighting for a romantic night-out vibe. The service was great too — I told our waiter we were short on time, and they graciously accommodated us and recommended dishes with quick cook times. In short, a must try spot for great Indian food in the area!”

American Food

Biryani

“Great food! Love the lamb biryani. My Indian friends say it’s authentic.”
