This is fast casual Indian cuisine food. I first noticed the place is very clean and 5 months new. You order at the counter and they bring your food. I ordered the Butter Chicken, Mixed Vegetable plate, and for dessert the Chocolate Baklava. All the food is cooked fresh each time and is authentic and delicious, not pre-made and the counter staff are very nice and knowledgeable on their dishes with recommendations. I would highly recommend Charcol and I will definitely come back again!!

Friendly staff, ok prices, good food in general but biryani was pretty disappointing. It was average in taste, portion was kind of small (ordered family portion) but the biggest problem was the little rock or hard shell type of hard pieces. I got one in the restaurant, and didn’t mind but when I had the leftovers at home, two more came up which could literally break my tooth.

Charcol in HB on the corner of Beach and Atlanta is one of the best Indian restaurants around! The garlic naan and chicken tikka masala were absolutely to die for — full of flavor and perfectly cooked. The portions were generous, and the lunch specials make it super affordable. Great food, friendly service, and unbeatable value — can’t wait to go back!

HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
Food is amazing, good quality and good portions.
The service was amazing, we just made the order and they served it to our table. Also the cashier was knowledgeable and very helpful.
We ordered chicken dum biryani, chicken korma it’s coming with rice, and one butter nan which was verrry delicious they are using salted butter
The biryani was delicious and medium spicy, it also comes with yoghurt salad.
The mix of the korma sauce with the biryani rice is just on .
Also, the resturant is huge with many indoor tables and a patio, and the bathrooms are very clean.

My family and I visited Charcoal Indian Kitchen in Huntington Beach today while we were in the area, and it was a fantastic experience. This local spot blends the convenience of fast food with a more upscale Indian dining vibe. Having opened just a few months ago, it’s still new, but it’s already making a strong impression.
The gentleman who opened the restaurant previously worked at other Indian restaurants I’ve frequented and loved, so I went in with high hopes for the food—and I wasn’t disappointed. The interior is spotlessly clean, and the menu is expansive, offering dozens of delicious options for both meat-lovers and vegetarians alike.
We sampled a wide variety of dishes: dosa (which we tried in multiple styles, including chicken tikka dosa and masala dosa), chicken skewers, paneer, lamb pepper fry, lamb saag, garlic and butter naan, chili naan, a paneer bowl, and mango lassi to wash it all down.
Despite the restaurant only being in business for three months, I tempered my expectations since new places often need time to find their footing. But Charcoal Indian Kitchen exceeded all of them. The food was outstanding, with bold flavors and perfect execution across every dish. The service was equally impressive—friendly, attentive, and efficient.
Our family, which includes some tough critics, couldn’t find a single dish to fault. Everything was a hit. Charcoal Indian Kitchen has nailed it with their menu and hospitality, earning a well-deserved five stars from us. We’ll definitely be back!

I ordered the dosa during my first order about a week ago and it was pretty good, so I thought I would order from here again today, but this time order something different, so I ordered the paneer and chicken tikka masala with some side items, and it instantly gave me and my family a stomach ache. It was much more oily than any other Indian curry I’ve ever had before as you can see in the photos and oddly overly sweet as if they added sugar to the curries. The chutneys, samosa, and garlic naan were good. Unfortunately, I won’t be ordering from here ever again.

We got the all you can eat dosa special (+roll) and fountain drinks. Definitely a great and yummy deal. We were stuffed! We recommend paneer, chicken tikka, and potato/lentil (unsure of the name). Dosas were really crispy and delicious.
Service was great too! Cashier/waiter was accommodating and helpful when ordering. The initial order took a little while to come, but the rest came out pretty fast. Obviously made to order and super fresh!

We came here before also but the quality that time was 10/10 but now we came here again we ordered 3 lunch combos, 1 Chicken Biriyani, 1 Chicken Malai Kebab & 1 Papdi chat except for Papdi chat none of them were edible Biryani chicken was burned & dry while combo lunch & kebab chicken were overcooked & tight while the mint chutney was rotten.

Tried the Chicken 65 biryani and it was very good. I’ve almost tried all the Indian restaurants in OC and this restaurant serves one of the best Indian dish out there. I live near Newport Beach so this is the closest Indian restaurant you can’t go wrong with if you are craving for an Indian dishes.
The staff here are warm and accommodating, happily adjusting dishes to suit your taste preferences. Wish they had a buffet.
