I had the coconut curry mussels. They were fantastic. I recommend getting a lot of rice and naan with that dish because there's so much leftover sauce. The staff was great. The atmosphere was fun - the music is pretty loud but not so loud that you can't hear the convo. I'll definitely be back to try more of the unique "Badmaash Favorites".

Absolutely fantastic food! Very balanced spices on the traditional Indian food such as the fried fish and pork curry. Loved the innovative poutine, chilli cheese naan. I was very pleasantly surprised by how tasty the broccolini was. And to top it all the ParleG ice cream sandwich. Highly recommended.

Was here on Sunday...came back again on Wednesday, what more do I need to say? Both times were at strange hours during the day so it was pretty quiet-as hard for me to believe they would ever be with as delicious as the food is. Id honestly expect a line around the block. We were quickly seated and our servers both times were incredibly attentive. Tried the Yogurt Puffs, Onion Fritters, one of each of the Samosas and Tikka Masala with Rosemary Naan. I would absolutely recommend stopping by to treat yourself to the delicious food! You wont regret the decision.

With the amount of Drake bumping on the speakers, you’d think the restaurant has taken his side in the beef with Kendrick. If you’re Indian and notice there are mostly non-Indians here (like my dad first pointed out), let me put your doubts to rest. The food is great. Can’t go wrong with the appetizers, so snag a few. I usually go with chicken for a main, which pairs well with the rosemary naan. Wash it all down with a mango lassi, and you’ll be satisfactorily full. Looking forward to the spot opening in Venice, soon.

The food here was amazing! We started with the Maslaa potato fries which were like a 6/10. but then we had the Dahi Puri which was just amazing! The butter chicken samosa and cheese naan were all great, but then the butter chicken and south Indian fish curry had such an amazing taste with the rice. Then for dessert we had the kheer which was great too. I would give badmaash an 11/10, if you're craving indian food definitely come here.

Badmaash was so delicious. Whether you prefer traditional or modern takes on Indian cuisine, they knock it all out of the park. The Butter Chicken and freshly made Naan was perfect. The charred spicy broccolini from their fusion menu was also tasty. And the restaurant was extremely nice to provide us with a triad of desert options including an ice cream sandwich, coconut pudding and freshly made hot chai. Thank you to Mo & Alex for the excellent service. Can’t wait to return!

I had a lengthy layover at the LA airport. I rented a car to find and eat at Badmaash, on Fairfax Ave. It is a satisfying mix of truly authentic Indian food with additional creative house favorites on the menu! I was very pleased with the flavors of their familiar traditional favorites: naan, roti, mango lassi, tikka masala, samosas, Punjabi, fries onions, amazing dips and sauces. And I tried a couple new things, too: The South Indian Fish Moilee was a new and different taste and I loved it, as well as the coconut curry mussels. It was a feast! It made my day! I definitely recommend this place!
