Brilliant Indian Restaurant
Provided by Citysearch
I have only been to Electric Karma for dinner once, and the meal was superb. I remember an exquisite lamb that my fiance ordered, and a beautifully done Chicken Korma for me. I would highly recommend this restaurant for dinner to anyone. Now, I am into the habit of going everyday to the restaurant, cause they have an outstanding service..........I recommend everyone to dine in.........hurry up.....don't wait..

GREAT INDIAN FOOD
Provided by Citysearch
The best thing about this place is the food! Try the Nirvana Chicken SOOOOO GOOD! The other nice thing is the owner hangs out there to over see the place and he comes by to personally make sure you are enjoying your time there and your meal. Was a real nice change from most of the snooty restaurants in LA.

Great date spot.

Delicious Indian Yum Yums. I went here with hopes of satisfying my coconut curry cravings. It was a success. It was hard to choose a dish, but I went with the Chef's Chicken, Basmati Rice and Naan. It was delicious. The chicken was tender and the curry was perfect! The Naan was wonderful and I actually wasn't all that impressed with the rice. The service was excellent. The only thing that I could complain about was the ""doggie bag"" service. We didn't eat even half of what we ordered, so they took our leftovers to the back to package it all up for us. Later when we opened up our leftovers, hardly any of them were in the bag. What happened to my Chef's Chicken?! Sad. Still a success, I will defiantly go back. Just don't get anything ""to go"".

Perfect Everything!

I've been coming to EK for a couple of years already and everything is fantastic; from the Bollywood on the big screen to the always fresh and delicious food, to the extremely friendly owner Pama who will even keep you company if you are dining alone, to the authentic and over the top decor and ambiance. Then of course there is Kate... the hostess who is simply glowing; the friendliest person ever and who masterfully interacts with both guests and kitchen to make sure that every dish is prepared to your personal satisfaction and that the experience is overwhelmingly positive. EK makes for an exotic and always enjoyable evening.

Love the Food, Hate the Patio!
Provided by Citysearch
My husband and I CRAVE this food and usually get it delivered. One night, we decided to dine in, and because it was a beautiful night and their outdoor patio is layered with floor pillows and candles, we chose the atrium. As usual, the food was to die for... we ordered additional things and tried new stuff, but sadly our meal was blown out by the sea of smokers who are allowed to puff up continuously! The patio was so cozy and charming, but we literally went from course to course with smokers blowing smoke toward us from each side. That said, we will definitely continue to get this food, only we'll stay home. :o)

simply amazing

electric karma a lovely dining option. My dining experience felt like I was royalty. With calming music and lovely ambiance I forgot about my order till it came. The meal is well worth the cost. There is flavor as well as heat.\r the out door patio with the pillows is the best hidden place in town!\r

Love the food, cozy and intimate atmosphere
Provided by Citysearch
In the past, I usually went with the delivery service to my house in Hollywood..( menu that I took from friend cause the food sounded tasty). I never made an attempt to pay a restaurant visit until today. Yesterday I ordered delivery service from Electric Karma and today I finally made the effort to visit the place. As I first walked in, I right away loved the decor. I sat in a cozy booth and from my view I can see the outside patio and I thought the next time I would love to bring friends with me to enjoy the really cute and cozy outside setting. The pricing is great. The service was fabulous. The waiters were nice. I believe I was also approached by the owner and asked me if I needed anything else done to my food and if it was ok. It was more than ok. It was excellent. They made me feel comfortable, welcomed, and most of all happy. I will try to make more attempts to come here more often although I still appreciate the delivery service. =)

Free refill of best chai & complimentary appetizer
Provided by Citysearch
Excellent food and service. Free refill of best indian chai, then complimentary appetizer, and finish with free dessert. What a deal. Super great service. My friend and I did not finish our complimentary appetizer so that we could save room for the entree and desserts. The waiter asked whether we were not happy with it. Great proactive seeking of customer feedback! Much better service than most expensive restaurants. Very attentive waiters ensured constantly whether we wanted to refill our chai. Great price and delicious tastes. Very comprehensive menus. beautiful atmosphere. Servers are all polite, friendly, attentive, and helpful. More than highly recommended.

FOOD & DECOR

I had my second dining experience at Electric Karma this past weekend. Having discovered this place earlier this year, I was looking forward to a return visit. This place has definitely found its groove and is a bright colorful addition to the area. The menu is inventive and a welcome departure from the ordinary. I highly recommend this restaurant if you are in the area [near the beverly center. I certainly plan to return again.

romatic restaurant
Provided by Citysearch
My boyfriend took me to electric karma last night for my birthday. I'm very picky with restaurants, but this one was absolutely wonderful! The service was incredible! Everyone from the car valet to the gentleman that opened the door for us to the waiters to, our main waiter were extremely courteous, friendly and punctual. We had fresh samosa for an appetizer, chicken nirvana and fish tikka with great wine for an entree, and an amazing warm gulab jamun for dessert. Everything was extremely tasty! And the ambience of the restaurant is so romantic, the tables are well-spaced for more privacy in the back patio, candles and flowers everywhere (we sat in the back patio on pillows), and great buddha-bar style music in the background. I highly recommend this restaurant to everyone!

open-air patio

Recently my husband took me to electric karma and it was fantastic! It was our anniversary and a rare time where we could enjoy dinner without the kids. They treated us like royalty. The food was great and we were even given a wonderful tour of the place when we asked if they had any space for private parties. they have a back patio with pillows on the floor, its so lovely!

Why Americanize ethnic food
Provided by Citysearch
Americanized Indian Food....I dont like the bland affair. is there anybody Indian in the kitchen, I doubt it. The flavors, the presentation, the aromas are more tex mex than Indian. Trust me, I know Indian food after living in London for a few years. This place is a money minter in the disguise of Indian restaurant.

WORST SERVICE AND INDIAN FOOD IN L.A
Provided by Citysearch
When I saw that this restaurant had five stars and such low prices, I thought ""Wow, this must be one of those super cool holes in the wall that you only stumble upon by accident or have to hear about through your friends,"" but I was wrong. The food was sub average at best (I could get the same Samosa and Pakoras at any higher end any indianmarket for much less money) and the service was absolutely abysmal. It was extremely frustrating gaining the attention of the servers, they were just hanging aroud the Bar. Some of am playing around the computer. though I frequently called for them making pleading eye gestures, waving, even calling out to them directly, all to no avail. Even as the servers passed by me and made eye contact, they kept moving on. We had to ask for our bill three times and only got it after complaining that we had asked so many times and had been waiting up to half an hour. I will definitely never come here again.

Either people were paid to give these positive reviews or they simply don't know what real indian food is. First off, the place feels almost claustophobic and cramped. Our table was located next to the bar. Not a good spot. Then again, i didnt see any good tables anyways. Our waiter was annoying, why do people feel the need to put on an act and try to come across as AMERICAN when they are not. Wine was ok, just your average pino grigio. The food itself wasn't really close of even being average. It just wasn't good. Bad day? Maybe. Maybe not. In the end, we couldn't wait to be done and leave.
