"The boba was very mushy/clumped/ over cocked. They use different cups from the ones you get when you go to store front. They don't label the drinks so it's hard to tell which drink is which when ordering for a group. Pretty disappointed since Boba Guys is one of my favorite places. This happened 2 times already. Do not recommend DoorDashing this place since the quality goes different."

"Ordered from here while we were visiting family in LA area. I have to say, this is hands down one of the best Indian restaurants we have tried in the US. Each dish was outstanding. Particularly the Chicken malai kabab and Green Chilli Chicken Fry (Mirapakai Kodi) House Special just blew our minds! We stayed at LA for 3 days and ordered from this restaurant twice- it's just that good! Will be ordering again whenever we're back! Good job, guys!"
"I've had to be in LA a lotthis year due to an unfo of family situation. I thought the DoorDash options would be good, but sadly, most were med at best. This placed rocked! The Chicken Tikka Masala was excellent. I got the Goat Dum Biryani and it was amazing! I recently had COVID, and nothing has apoe to me, but this meal was great.The garlic naan was small (that's okay - last Indian restaurant I ordered from brought me a huge sheet) but very tasty. My only complaint is that the raita was liquid rather than creamy which made it difficulty to add to the plate. But the flavors were wonderful. Hint: the Biryani comes with a lot of very tasty rice, but it was almost too much food for me - and do get the extra sauce if you get the biryani. I'll definitely be ordering from this place again!"
