Chef Arango Indian - Los Angeles

I love Indian food and am glad this place open close by. Don't expect anything fancy regarding the ambiance, but it's clean and comfortable. The food is great. I go there often. They are pretty fast too.

This place has become my must go place in each LA trip after accidentally discovering it. The dishes are very fresh and consistently good in taste. Not a fancy place, but has some eat in options. Parking may be tricky with road side parking.

I wish I had remembered to take photos before the meal but my first instinct when the food came out was to immediately pile it on a plate then into my mouth. The butter chicken is phenomenal, the butter acting like the star it is and not just a background character. My favorite was the eggplant tho, got it medium because my friends are babies, and asked for the hot sauce on the side. It is SPICY but DELICIOUS. The kofta meatballs are super tender and flavorful. Not pictured is the garlic naan because that was gone quick. Service was efficient and attentive and our server even hooked us up with some goodies, us being the only party dining in that night. Shout-out to whoever stuffs the samosas because they are crispy and jam-packed with delicious filling, no empty air pocket in sight. This also has to be one of the most affordable places I've eaten at.If you're looking for delicious food served by people who care and at an unbeatable cost, this the place for you.Vegetarian options: I almost prefer the veggie entrees, I don't ever miss meat eating it.

I usually only order takeout from this restaurant, but each time, the food is always packed neatly and with care. In over 20 visits, I've never had a disappointing dish. I particularly love the korma, coconut curry, and saag paneer.

This is one of the worst Indian restaurants in the area. The samosas had stale filling and a tough exterior. The malai kofta was overly salty, and the dinner option promised kheer, which was absent. Even the gulab jamun wasn't good. I recommend trying any other Indian restaurant nearby instead.
