If you’re looking to try something delicious and a bit different – this is the place!
We ordered the chicken chat, tomato soup, lamb vindaloo, fried chicken & mushrooms, and rice. Everything was very unique but incredibly tasty! The chicken had a slight sweetness to it, and the lamn literally melted in my mouth.
The place is super clean, with almost obsessive attention to detail – even the glasses were spotless, not a single smudge. Only two guys were working on a busy Saturday, but somehow they cooked and served everything really fast.
Meal was $55 total for 2 people.
The only thing to be aware of is that the waiter’s outfit is super casual, and he’s not really helpful when it comes to choosing dishes, so I’d recommend looking up some Indian meals in advance, just to have an idea of what you might like. Good thing the menu is big and has pictures.
Highly recommend checking this place out! We’ve tried other restaurants around Big Bear Lake, but the food here was by far the best.

Masala Craft Indian Cuisine offers a pleasant dining experience with a menu of classic Indian dishes. While the flavors were not as bold or layered as I had hoped, the food was enjoyable overall. The samosas stood out as my favorite item of the evening. They were crispy on the outside with a savory filling that hit the right balance.
The service was attentive, though understandably a bit reserved given that there appeared to be just one waiter managing the entire dining room, from bussing to serving. Even with the multitasking, he kept things moving at a steady pace.
Overall, Masala Craft delivers a decent meal in a casual setting. It is a solid option if you are in the mood for Indian food, with standout appetizers like the samosas making it worth the visit.

There’s something about this place that’s hard to describe, you just have to come see it for yourself. If this isn’t my first time trying Indian food, then it’s definitely my second — and honestly, this little experiment turned out great.
At first glance, it looks like a simple spot. But the longer you sit, the more details you start to notice. It’s super clean — like, surprisingly clean. Tables, glasses, silverware, even the restroom — spotless. You can feel when people really care about their place.
I’ll be honest, I wasn’t sure what to order. I’m not big on spicy food, so I asked the waiter for a little help and then decided to trust my own instinct. Went with tomato soup and chicken with mushrooms. Both hit the mark — warm, rich, perfectly seasoned, just enough flavor without burning you out. After that, I ordered ginger tea, and that sealed it. Could’ve taken it to go, but I stayed and finished every drop.
Only small thing I noticed — the staff was dressed kind of casual, more sporty than uniform. Not really a complaint, more like an observation. I was dressed the same way, so it worked.
Total was $55.70, and worth every dollar. This one’s a solid 5 stars from me. I’ll be back for sure.

I wasn’t sure if I would like Indian food. This place is so good. Everything I ordered was so good. The server was very attentive and seemed to never stop moving. The wife and I ordered way too much food and surprisingly the bill was not bad at all. If you’re in the area you must try this place. You will not be disappointed.

We were in Big Bear last year. The food at Masala Craft is so good, this was our first stop for dinner this year. We ordered chicken Tikka Tandori and chicken Tikka Masala. The Tandori was so tender and flavorful. It came out sizzling with bits of stayed peppers and onion. I’d order this again. The Masala was lightly spicy and creamy. We shared an order of rice, naan and raita. The raita was a little sweet. This was more food than we could eat. Service was great, friendly and quick. Our server checked on us throughout dinner. The Tandori is pictured. We’ll be back!

Food was great but service was lacking. We visited for a late lunch (around 1pm) and sat on the patio—although small (only two tables), it is dog friendly which we appreciated since we brought our dog along for the trip. We ordered the chicken momo, paneer pakora (fried cheese), chili naan, garlic naan, butter chicken, saag paneer, and the fried chicken and mushroom. Everything was very good. The food arrived within minutes of us placing our order, which was nice. The only reason I’m giving four stars rather than five is because we didn’t receive our drinks within a timely manner and we would have liked to have been checked in on a little more frequently—it took awhile to get boxes for leftovers and to get the check. Otherwise, very good food and would recommend!

This is my favourite place for Indian food! We went on a Monday and it wasn’t busy at the time. The gist/ waiter was very nice and all of our food came was delicious. We are a family of four and we ordered aloo Gobi, butter chicken, garlic naan, samosas, and tandoori chicken.
