Cali Chilli Downtown LA

Went here with 3 friends for the Dine LA experience, offered at $55 / person. Place had nice decor and the courses all slapped. Standout dishes include the cheesy seek kebab (lamb and mozzarella), chicken vindaloo, and the tadka daal. The garlic naan was on point, the saffron rice was a nice touch, and the espresso tiramasu was heavenly to close us out. They had a vast cocktail menu but we kept it to food + had plenty to bring home. 90 minutes parking in attached garage is validated by restaurant. All in all a great addition with Indian fusion to Little Tokyo!

We were in that area for the game at Crypto Arena and thought to try this one . Nice ambiance with yummy food .though , the menu is limited but as good as the Michelin restaurant. Loved their food presentation and the dishes they used for the food, very elegant . We asked for few green chillies and they gave us a little bowl of salad with the green chillies, complimentary . Weldon, our server was the only one taking care of 2-3 tables and he was making drinks at the bar too , so the service was little slow , they missed couple of items from our order but made up to it quickly , but his attitude was excellent while single handedly taking care of everyone . It would be nice if they have more servers when one is paying that much . Would love to go back for the paneer tikka , amritsari kulch

This place has an amazing ambiance! I thoroughly enjoyed everything I tried here, including the cocktail. I’m a big fan of Indian fusion cuisine, and this restaurant didn’t disappoint at all! 😍😍 Here’s what I tried: 1) Dahi Puri - It was incredibly flavorful and delicious. 2) Cauliflower fritter - It was crispy and satisfying. 3) Chicken momos - They were very tasty and appetising! 4) Butter chicken pot pie - I would recommend ordering a naan with it because the butter chicken curry is more than the pie crust. However, it was still one of the best butter chicken pies I’ve had in LA😍 5) Chai tiramisu - It was a great dessert, not too sweet, something which I prefer. I highly recommend this place! I can’t wait to come back!

I've been here two times in a row now. This place has been at the top of my list for a while and it really stood up to my expectations. The food here is one of the most authentic Indian food I've had in LA while being experimental and fun. The balance of fusion and authenticity is excellent. Every single thing is seasoned here, even the rice. Great portion sizes for the price. You will not leave hungry from here. They also have a great bar. I don't drink alcohol but they have a stellar collection of zero proof drinks and a huge collection of alcoholic drinks with some unique cocktails. My highlight dishes here are the Rendang, the Black Dal, the Pot Pie and the Amritsari Kulcha. Definitely going to be a regular of this place. Kudos to the chef and the staff here. Y'all are running an

Here’s a balanced, honest review you can use: When I arrived, the restaurant wasn’t very busy—only about four tables were occupied—but it still took a while for me to be seated, and longer than expected to get my first drink and place my order. The food itself was good, and I’m glad I tried this place at least once. Overall, it was a decent experience, but for me it’s probably a “tried it once” kind of spot rather than somewhere I’d rush back to.
