Annapurna Grill is really a good place to go for vegetarian and non-vegetarian Indian meals.
As a non-Indian, the food was above and beyond. I had the Annapurna Goat Curry with the basmati rice that comes with it. The Mango Lassi was thick, creamy, and delicious.
The Goat Curry was flavorful, aromatic, and went very well with the rice. It was my first time trying it, and I’d say it was a 10/10 meal which I would definitely try again.
My only concern was the time it took to get the food ready, because we order as a group and it took sometime to get the food to us.
The owner was kind, and courteous to explain that some chefs were not around and hence the delay.
PS: I have added images of the menu for anyone who would like to view the menu before getting there.

So I tried Annapurna Grill in Pasadena and let me tell you—this biryani is no joke. Like, if there were a “Biryani Olympics” in LA, Annapurna would definitely make it to the finals, possibly disqualified only if the judges fell into a food coma halfway through. It’s that good.
The rest of the food? Fantastic. I even heard other customers at the next table complimenting their dishes—either the food is great, or Annapurna hires undercover hype people. (If so, bravo, because I was convinced.)
Now, let’s talk parking. Imagine Indiana Jones looking for the Holy Grail—except instead of booby traps and rolling boulders, it’s Pasadena street parking. And under no circumstances park under the tree in front of the restaurant. Unless you want to wake up tomorrow and wonder if your car got auditioned as the backdrop for a Hitchcock remake. The birds here don’t mess around. They have aim, strategy, and possibly a union.
So, 9/10 for food, 0/10 for avian parking attendants.

This place is in utter chaos. The owner should take a hard look at how their money saving tactics are affecting their customers. We went on a Saturday evening and I can’t even think of how to describe the exact experience.
1. We had to sit in the middle of the restaurant entrance in a cramped hallway.
2. The lady working was trying her best to be the receptionist, server, cleaning table, attending to DoorDash orders, bringing food to tables and much more.
3. We ordered at 6:50 pm. By 8:30 pm one person still didn’t have their order.
4. They brought two wrong items to the table.
5. They served uncooked uthappam twice. We requested the first serving to be recooked and they once again brought uncooked uthappam.
6. They brought food and then we had to wait 20 min to get plates and silverware.
7. We couldn’t even get water and I had to share my my water cup with someone.
The employees were trying their best – this is the result of the owners attitude to save cost and trying to get all the work done by a couple of employees.
I’d never return and I’d never recommend to anyone.

This is your typical neighborhood Indian eatery. It’s got all south and north dishes … but it specializes in South Indian cuisine. I’ve ordered more than 70 times from here… it’s basic Indian comfort food.
Spice level is adjustable, not too oily, pretty fresh and somewhat healthy options available.
Dining in doesn’t add any value, unless you wanna save on delivery/platform fees. They take orders on the phone, I normally call in my orders and pick up.
Some DOs and DONTs:
Don’t go here for butter chicken or chana masala or paneer tikka (those are notth Indian)
Do go here for dosas and idlis
Do go here for South Indian spicy biriyanis (they make a bomb vijaywada special biriyani) and paneer biriyani
For appetizers, do try their masala fish fry, chicken 65, and chili paneer
Do try their mango lassi
Don’t go for naan, opt for rice/biriyani
Note, recently their portion sizes have reduced (maybe taxes or new management) and you can notice cost cutting measures. But the portions are still more than enough for one person.

Had such a lovely experience! They actually accommodated us even though they were closed, which was so kind. The owner was incredibly down to earth and made sure we never felt rushed. We tried the idli and medu vada, and both were super fresh and delicious. Honestly, their hospitality won us over, we’ll definitely be coming back!

I love to eat spicy foods. Must try Veg Appetizers- Pakora , Onion Samosa , Mirchi Bajji , Chicken Vepudu – (Non Veg Appetizer) , Vijayawada Boneless Chicken Biryani , Chicken Dum Biryani( Vintage Hyderabad style) , Veg Curries – Guthivankaya Curry, Aloo Gobi Masala , Kadai paneer ) , Non Veg Curries – (Andhra Chicken Curry, Fish Pulusu , Goat Pepper Fry ). All Dosas are Top Notch specially Rava Dosas and by the way The Chefs are good being and friendly with customers. (Note- Spicy lover Review), So Let’s Walk-in and have Best Indian food in Pasadena & LA .

At last! Finally found some great Indian food. All our dishes were top quality with flavorful sauces and the right amount of spicy kick.

The food was really good, but the service was terrible. A young man threw two menus onto our table. They were stacked on top of each other, not one for each of us. He took our order and soon brought the drinks, but he just tossed them onto the table in a rude way. And when the food arrived… he brought the dishes at different times and placed them in the middle of the table. We tried to ask which dish was whose — we had ordered different meals — but he just kept repeating the names of the dishes, and of course we didn’t know them by name. I was also expecting more water, and in the end I had to go to the counter to ask for it.

Oh my goodness the food was magnificent. I’m generally not big into Indian food and I don’t have it often so perhaps I’m not the best judge. However I can say that it was probably the best Indian food I’ve ever had. And it was quite cheap too! Make sure you order one of the Dosas and Uthappams! Highly recommended, and you’ll probably have leftovers too!
