  Just three and a half miles from LAX, India’s Tandoori invites diners to a culinary experience of rare distinction - whether seeking extraordinary flavors, enjoying a transit escape, or lingering after landing. Every visit unfolds like a tapestry of taste, warmth, and gracious hospitality, where fragrant spices, sizzling platters, and artful presentation transform each meal into an unforgettable memory. From the very first greeting, guests are welcomed not merely as diners, but as honored guests - an ethos brought to life by Jiten, the new owner, whose gracious presence and evident passion for hospitality infuse the restaurant with warmth and authenticity. Complementing Jiten’s hospitality is Aadi, a manager whose near-magical instinct anticipates your desires, guiding you through the menu with a rare blend of poise, attentiveness, and genuine warmth, while gracefully presenting each dish with articulate and thoughtful detail. The opening flavors enchant the palate: golden, crisp Chicken or Aloo Samosas filled with spiced, savory fillings; delicate, airy Mixed Vegetable Pakoras with a satisfying crunch; and tangy, lightly spiced Gobi Manchurian, cauliflower tossed in a bold, savory sauce that tingles on the tongue. Each bite awakens the senses and builds anticipation for the culinary journey ahead. Culinary artistry shines in both timeless classics and inspired creations. Indian favorites such as Chicken Tikka Masala and Butter Chicken are luxuriously silky, deeply aromatic, and perfectly spiced, with sauces that are rich, velvety, and utterly indulgent. Signature dishes - Tibetan Lamb, tender and fragrant; sizzling Rack of Lamb, infused with smoky, herbaceous aromas; and the creamy, sweet-spicy Mango Chicken Special, where sun-ripened mangoes mingle with warming spices - unfold in a symphony of rich, nuanced flavors. The menu’s Indo-Chinese and Himalayan selections are equally captivating. Steaming Chicken and Vegetable Momos, tender dumplings filled with aromatic spices, arrive with tangy chili-tomato chutney that imparts a vibrant, aromatic spark. Wok-tossed Hakka Noodles shimmer with sesame and ginger, while fiery Chili Chicken crackles with heat and umami, each bite offering a perfect harmony of texture and flavor. The atmosphere is quietly elegant: soft lighting, plush seating, and a gentle rhythm encourage lingering, allowing every meal to be enjoyed at leisure. The daily buffet is generous, thoughtfully curated, and surprisingly affordable. Heaping platters of freshly spiced favorites, colorful vegetables, and hearty proteins tempt the senses, whether stopping in for a quick bite near LAX or settling in for a leisurely, indulgent meal. India’s Tandoori is a rare gem in Los Angeles, balancing tradition, creativity, and refinement. It’s a destination that beckons return visits for expertly crafted dishes, bold flavors, and heartfelt hospitality - every bite leaving you craving more. Maria E.

  I had a fantastic dining experience at India’s Tandoori Halal Indian Restaurant near LAX! From the moment I arrived, the friendly staff made me feel welcome, and the service was attentive throughout the meal. The menu offered a great variety of authentic Indian favorites from perfectly spiced curries to freshly baked garlic naan that was simply irresistible. The flavors were bold and well-balanced, and every dish tasted fresh and satisfying. The lunch buffet was especially impressive with a wide selection of options that let me sample lots of delicious items in one visit. The atmosphere was clean, comfortable, and relaxed perfect for a casual meal after a long flight or with friends and family. I also appreciated the halal preparation and the care put into every dish. This place is a must-try if you’re craving flavorful Indian cuisine near LAX I’ll definitely be back!

  I've given up on the prior management was dissatisfied with their food and service. Found out today that this new management but going back almost a year now. Thought I'd give him a shot I have to say food is much better with worth repeating for me and the service was very good genuine Indian hospitality. They've got an image PR issue that's Legacy to the prior management. I suggest everyone give them a fair shot you'll be glad you did.
