“ Hidden gem in West Los Angeles, it's actually on the second floor of the black medical building on the corner of Wilshire and one block west of San Vicente *Parking* $2 parking in the building after 6pm, and restaurant validates *Portions* Generous portions. We had the thali (a tasting of various dishes including curry and biriyani and naan) and lamb curry, and a side of rice. Authentic Indian food, so if you don't know where to go on a Friday night, just come out here! Will be back for their lunch specials. ”
“ Awesome food, good vibes! The manager was super nice and I got to watch some intense Cricket games. "Their bathroom is bigger than my bedroom" - Derek Yeet ”
“ Great curry here and amazing service. The staff/manager (Rafiq) are very kind and helpful which made the eating experience much more enjoyable. I will come back again to try more of the items here! ”
“ Came here after church and it was SO GOOD!! I am a current PhD student at UCLA and not even my Indian coworkers knew about this place! The food was good, I liked the Butter Chicken and the garlic naan! Very clean atmosphere and the waiters are very attentive to fill our waters and make sure are plates were clean after appetizers and entree before dessert. Would come here!! ”
“ I tried to order from them recently and it said it was closed. I never saw them again on that site, so I am worried. I love this restaurant. Very good food, and the family is so sweet! ”
“ This is an authentic Indian restaurant in Brentwood, located on the second floor, so you get somewhat of a view if you sit by the window. Their papadum was delicious, and their onion bhaji was even better. Amazingly seasoned, crunchy batter on the outside and soft on the inside. They're served with tamarind sauce. I recommend the garlic naan and chicken tikka masala: white tender pieces of chicken in a creamy tomato sauce. Only downside is you have to order a side of rice - it seems no dish comes with a side of rice anymore. The atmosphere was great, they played Indiana music to set the vibes. The food came surprisingly fast and fresh - great staff! ”
“ First time here at Sham's India's Oven. My friend works in this medical building and recommended having dinner here. The restaurant validates parking if you park in the building. Entrance to the parking is from Barry, just north of Wilshire. It is a bit tricky to find. We shared the Onion Bhaji as an appetizer as well as Spinach Naan. We enjoyed these! We all enjoyed our food, Chicken Korma, Chicken Tikka Masala and a vegetarian dinner set! The staff tonight did not wear a uniform, so I wasn't sure who was staff or a guest ( thus the 4 stars) . I saw a few Take Out orders, which was good, because on a Tuesday evening, it wasn't busy. I always like to support local small businesses. View from the restaurant is of Wilshire. Interior is very nice! ”
“ Food on point as usual ! Don't skip the beryani, so good! Service always amazing and nice and clean . Fair prices as well ”
“ Delicious Masalas (we had chicken and paneer), lamb vindaloo, and chicken biryani. All of them were packed with earthy flavors that does wonders to your taste buds. The only thing I'd probably want more flavor is the Garlic Naan. It could use a little more kick to it. The Aloo Naan was delicious though! Also, be sure to get the vegetable samosas over the chicken samosas, and don't forget to request the mango chutney, mint chutney, and tamarind chutney! ”
