  This place is really yummy. I usually get it for takeout but decided to dine in today and the service was great, the staff is very friendly and the food was even better fresh. I recommend. :)

  First time ordering. Very fast. Delicious. In particular loved the Samosas and the breads. Chicken dishes were very good as well. Happy to have discovered it in my new neighborhood.

  If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! Star of India is truly a hidden gem in Hollywood. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with warm hospitality and the rich aroma of authentic Indian spices. Every dish tastes homemade and full of flavor — you can tell they use fresh ingredients and cook with real passion. The butter chicken is creamy and perfectly spiced, the naan is soft and fresh out of the tandoor, and the samosas are crispy perfection. I also love that the staff checks in just the right amount — friendly, attentive, but never overbearing.

  ⭐☆☆☆☆ “This was, without doubt, the worst experience of my life. If disappointment had an address, this place would be it. The food tasted like it had been sitting in the freezer since the last century, the service moved slower than a broken clock, and the atmosphere was as cheerful as a funeral in the rain. I wouldn’t recommend this to my worst enemy.”

  Star of India has the best Indian food in Los Angeles!!! I moved to LA from London over 20 years ago and tried several Indian restaurant before I discovered SOI when they were located on Melrose Ave. It reminded me of the family-run, neighborhood places I used to go to and when I tasted the food it did not disappoint. I rate an Indian restaurant on their Dal Tarka and SOI is fantastic, not watery and runny like other places but smooth and packed with flavor. Since they moved to Vine Ave I get delivery and order direct through the website which has just been updated and easy to navigate.
