"I always get the Mango Lassi and Vegetable 2. Vegetable Samosa when I want a treat. I’ve had their main curry dishes too, which are superb!
I love how fresh everything tastes and you can really tell they put care into the quality of the food. The vegetable samosas are huge, crispy on the outside, and filled with soft, fluffy, warm potatoes and peas.
The Mango Lassi is also delicious. The yogurt makes it cold, creamy, and refreshing.
I’ve been coming here for 3–4 years and would definitely order again!"
"I think this is my new favorite Indian restaurant in LA. I've tried a lot over the years and they're okay, but Tandoor India is AMAZING. Their chutneys are delicious and I think this is the best 27A. Paneer Makhani I've ever had in my life."

"Delicious, fresh, generous portions and a huge selection of vegetarian and vegan dishes.
Navratan Korma is phenomenal. Literally chock full of veg and some fruits in a silky, nutty Korma sauce. Do not miss.
Mango Lassi is perfection. Tart-sweet smooth. Cannot get enough.
Garlic Naan is outstanding. Goes with everything.
Cheese Naan was an unexpected delight. Perfect accompaniment to Korma and tomato-based sauces.
"
"Overall I've been very happy with this place and recommend. My only complaint is that there's been inconsistent quality with the Naan. It used to always be large and fluffy, lately it's more often smaller and smashed/deflated. The Chettinad Chicken is excellent and a bit spicier than the Chicken Tikka Masala."

Fitoor's food is so delicious. It's better than many restaurants I'vetried in India. The truffle mushroom kulcha, the paneer lababdar with the Malabar roti were terrific. We just couldn't stop eating.
Definitely going to be our go to place for North Indian food. And we are going to try out their dine in experience soon. Their pickled onion and a crushed dip on the side was epic with the Kasundi Paneer Tikka.
Wish they had a paneer biryani too."

Absolutely delicious! India’s Tandoori Hollywood has some of the best Indian food I’ve ordered in LA. The Chicken Tikka Masala was rich and flavorful, the Tandoori Chicken was perfectly cooked, and the Garlic Naan arrived fresh and soft. Everything tasted fresh, well-seasoned, and authentic.
The portions were generous, the packaging was excellent, and my DoorDash order arrived hot and in great condition. You can really taste the quality of the ingredients.
Definitely one of my favorite Indian restaurants in Hollywood. Highly recommended — I’ll absolutely order again! 🔥🍛"

The freshness was very apparent, even though I'd left it for an hour before picking it up haha. I love the Chicken Tikka Masala & Saag Tofu & Naan & Chicken Samosa & rice!! I would so order again."
"Chicken Tikka Masala medium spicy was very creamy and flavorful. I would have preferred more chicken pieces, as the ratio of chicken to sauce was off. Vindaloo Lamb medium spicy was similarly flavorful, but had far more lamb pieces, which was great! As expected, the vindaloo sauce was spicier than the masala. The Garlic Naan was fluffy and well flavored with plenty of garlic. I also got a container of lime pickle which was absolutely excellent, and a larger amount than I expected. There was plenty for 2-3 people."

"I ordered the chicken Biriyani. I'll tell you it's not cheap. It's $40 when you can probably find the best buriyani for somewhere around $20. May be $25 if the meat is exotic. Having heard great things about Badmash I decided to splurge $40 to only find that it was completely flavorless (75%) of it is plain white rice with some chicken curry (very little) burried inside. I would not pay 14 bucks for this, forget 40. So if you decide to order this, please keep this in mind."

Only downside was that the Iced Tea was Unsweetened and neither of us like unsweetened iced tea so we had to sweeten it ourselves xD

"Overall good was great. I absolutely love the Spinach Aloo. Please be warned though, when you order the Vegetable Biryani Rice at medium heat, it is EXTREMELY spicy. However, it still was delicious. Also, we were disappointed as the Tofu Masala had about 6 pieces of tofu in it with the rest being sauce. Overall, I would order again, but with a few modifications."
"I Ordered the spice to be medium. I love the taste of this Vegetable Biryani (Vegan) Dish. They have multiple spice levels mild is the common level. This is the second time I ordered and didn't get medium spice. If the spice was medium thr rice would be red not yellow. I tried calling them ahead of time to make sure they got my order right no answer when I got there I asked if my order was correct they didn't check it for me and instead of cooking my Vegetable Biryani (Vegan)Biryani' Entree , to my liking they gave me a Togo bowl of spices that is not the same. I also ordered the Vegan Lentils Soup and the portion size of the amount of lentils is not great. It is mostly broth. I am very disappointed and will be leaving a yelp review as well. I have ordered from this place over 7 times and for some reason they are now inconsistent."

"47. Lamb Biryani was excellent. The flavors were just right. First time having it with cashews and it was a great addition. The 4. Keema Samosa was delicious. However, it could have been filled a little more. The Mango Lassi was refreshing. If you love mango, you will love the drink. Included silverware would have been convenient."

My absolute favorite is My Son's Pho. My husband favorite is Banh Mi sandwich. Their vegan carrot cake is to die for!!! Everything we had there are so delicious! I highly highly recommend Variable Cafe!!!"
"We LOVE this restaurant!! Our favorite is their Carrot Cake, super yummy and with a little citrus in the icing. Tried the Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookie (actually we tried the double chocolate chip cookie) which was impossibly chocolatey and delicious. Next time we're ordering the salad with tofu skewers. We eat in person and via DD, but I'm sure no matter how you get it, you'll love it."
