Mr. Masala is my go-to Indian spot in downtown LA. The prices are reasonable for the generous portions, and at this point I’ve probably eaten half the menu—everything has been consistently delicious.
But the real reason I keep coming back is the naan. It’s hands-down the best I’ve had anywhere: fresh out of the oven, perfectly blistered, impossibly flaky, and soft with just the right chew. Slightly crisp on the edges, warm and pillowy in the center, and fragrant with butter—it’s the kind of naan you could eat on its own and still be happy.
One word of caution: be mindful of the spice level you order. This place is the real deal—when you ask for spicy, expect Asian spicy, not Americanized spicy.
If you’re here, don’t skip the naan. Honestly, it’s reason enough to come back.
I’ve dined there several times but I mostly take out. The inside has a cozy intimate feel to it. But they usually aren’t busy weekdays. Probably because most people take out.

This was disgusting. The chicken curry was swimming in oil, the masala tasted raw, and whole slices of onion were just bobbing on top. The samosas were soaked in grease and the chicken inside was half-raw. Whoever prepared this put in zero care it felt like they threw it together and boxed it up. Don’t charge people for this trash; if you’re going to serve food like this, at least donate it to someone in need instead of wasting customers’ money. I want a full refund never ordering from here again.

This was such a great experience. My first time trying Indian food and it was the best. The customer care was amazing and they went as far as to teach us how to eat it properly. They kept checking up on us to see if everything was okay. The food quantity was amazing. More than what you could ask for definitely. Safe to say will come again. They also attend to you fast which is amazing.

Absolutely delicious! The Butter Chicken Combo from Mr. Masala was rich, creamy, and full of authentic flavor. The chicken was perfectly tender, and the sauce had just the right balance of spice and sweetness. The garlic naan was soft, buttery, and paired beautifully with the curry. Portion size was generous, and everything tasted freshly made. Highly recommended for anyone craving real Indian comfort food!

The food is terrible. Masala tasted raw. Chicken curry is watery. Raisins in biryani. Called to let them know about the food. They responded that we had no idea what Indian food was.

Was almost going to have a good experience. Ria was nice and patient. I had food restrictions because of my diet. Upon leaving, the lady that I took a picture told me to take the trash outside the building to the streets. Respectfully I did spend money to eat here, it was rude gesture to have me spend money here and have to throw anything outside to the streets. Then she called me stupid and to get out. I regret purchasing anything from here. I never made any disrespectful remarks nor was I being rude at any point. This should not be tolerated. I eat food in the area, this is disrespect to my mine and money. I wanted to like this place but morally speaking it’s not worth coming if this is how they treat strangers. I hope people are aware that this kind of activity is going in this business. Love supporting local businesses but my time and money have value and it would not be spent here. She claimed to be the manager.
food wise: very important details to consider-
just because it’s vegan/ doesn’t mean it healthy.
I had the vegetable potato Samosa – it’s deep fried with canola oil (extremely processed oil) consuming oils like these make vegan/vegetarian options unhealthy. It’s almost like eating a McDonald chicken nugget.
Not saying this in a negative tone, just sharing honest thoughts. The potato was bland, typically with food like this, spices sometimes make up for the dish but unfortunately it didn’t. Just a potato deep fried with bread.
Lentil soup- had a broth feel to it, it also lacked taste and flavor. It wasn’t horrible, it just wasn’t great either. This is important because when it’s a lentil soup something has to stand out about it, it’s a healthier option so the taste makes up for the dish being a healthy. Upon asking, they also add canola oil to this soup. ((Not as much as the other foods on the menu, but still heavy and that gets people bloated) they should consider making foods with coconut oil. The place did seem to be clean. But people make the build what it is)

Honestly one of the best Indian restaurants in the Downtown LA area. The bearded young waiter was so polite and served us with the largest smiles which makes a hell of a difference.
We ordered 3 combos among 4 people and the waiter was nice enough to split the common elements such as the soup or the dessert four ways without us even asking for it. He referred to my parents as My uncle and my Aunty; and suggested the best dishes; brought the food promptly…
We went there a second time within two days bcoz that’s how much we loved the food and the service. Highly recommend it to anyone who loves and knows Indian food.
After such amazing service; I’d give them like 100 stars!
Must visit or take out! We loved the grub. Highly recommend to all Indians.
