Akbar Cuisine of India

happily recommend this Indian food place. Cheese nan here is better than pizza!

J.C. is great. The food, service, and cuisine are just what you would expect. There are a lot of Indian restaurants and this is one of the best.

I grew up going to this indian restaurant and my husband and i went back recently and I still think that it is really great! We had their Lamb chops which were so succulent and tender. And the Sea Bass is to die for! Always remember loving

I have my favorite little Indian restaurant on Lincoln Blvd where I have been going for a couple of years. But once in a while I love trying new places. Akbar restaurant lured me & my boyfriend in with its cozy lighting and it seemed full

We had received a two-fer coupon and decided to try the Marina del Rey Akbar for the first time. The place was small, but nicely appointed. But where was the wonderful spicy scent, so prevalent at any Indian restaurant? The place was

Service started off shakily and became worse as the evening went on. The waiter seemed to lose interest in us after we ordered the food. The 'Dinner' system involved having sides of rice, substandard dal and some mixed vegetables that

The food is fantastic. try the chicken tika for the best basic Indian food flavor For a flavor a little special try the chicken tika with cashew sauce. wonderful.. The vegetables are great. The cheese Nan is the best! I find my self ordering from them more often because this cheese Nan is so unique and tasty!

kids wanna jump~

I recently ordered the cheese naan for the first time, and to be honest--I can't imagine ordering any other naan ever again. I'm craving it right now.

The Chilean Sea Bass almost made me pass out because it was so Delicious. We even saw Barbara Streisand. WHAT A TREAT! HIGHLY recommended!

The restaurant was freezing, service was horrilbe and the food was bad. I ordered the chicken tikka masala and it tasted like rubber. I had to ask 3 times for my order of cheese naan. That was still good. I have eaten at this restaurant

We ordered a take away and it was good... But then it should be at just over $50 for two! Food came quickly from the Santa Monica branch and was warm, that hardly ever happens! We did order very early though before 6pm. It tasted fresh

This is one of my favorite restaurants in L.A. the staff is friendly, the food is incredible, and the wine selection is good as well. I have never made a reservation, the lunch is super inexpensive and the portions are perfect. I could go

I am a banker and travel the world and most big cities in the us.I have been to the finest top restaurants in the world such as el builli,the fat duck,daniel,le bernardin and french laundry but i have to say that akbar is the next best

I am a londoner who knows indian food like no one else coming from england.My friends took me to akbar this past saturday who kept bragging about this place for months.First of all we were waited on by atul who owns the place and knows his

We live local and go here often. Food and vibe are both good. Pretty sure the place is owned by a couple of brothers-- the older one seems cool, the younger one isn't great. Just as well, I suppose, getting in isn't usually a problem.

Ok...food is awesome. Staff is a bit slow and the food will take a bit. I've tried most of the entrees on the menu and they are all wonderful! Hope you like spice because the food has a BIG kick to them!

A casual, hip dining with a great selection of wine. Food is in top 5 of Indian restaurants on west side, better than any other Indian restaurants in Santa Monica. The manager has a great memory of what customers liked or did not like.

As someone who has grown up with South East Asian food all her life and eats out fairly regularly in LA, this place was a TREMENDOUS disappointment. The service was poor and the food was ridiculously expensive. When my friend's fish (the

Only complaint - they don't take reservations and owner/manager likes to seat his friends ahead of waiting line. Shame, because the food and wine are quite good

My brother brought me and my dad here. At first i thought it wasn't gonna be that good. Boy was i wrong!, the taste of the food here is so sophistacated, so many flavors in my mouth. Started off with the Papri Chat, sort of like indian

Akbar is far from authentic Indian food. I see a lot of hash browns being used camouflaged in curry (try the malai kofta or papdi chat for that). Dinner at Akbar is a complete rip-off. The restaurant needs to add some more veggie dishes

Akbar has very authentic, affordably priced Indian food. We love their curries and their homemade breads. They will custom make your curry to be as mild or spicy as you like. The waiters are very friendly. Prices are reasonable. Ample FREE parking.

PROS: Authentic, affordable, tasty Indian food
CONS: none

Take-out or dine in and try the garlic naan, curry shrimp, mint chutney and chicken tikka, lentil soup, and spinach and cheese. Ive never been disappointed.

Best Indian food I've found in the Mar Vista/Marina del Rey area. Added bonus: I never make a reservation, I typically go there on a whim, and I've never waited for a table. Try the Chicken Kati Rolls and the Chicken Tikka Masala. Although he can sometimes border on over-solicitous, the host/owner always makes you feel at home.

The food here was so delicious, I highly recommend this restaurant. Our server was also extremely friendly, helpful and knowledgable about the wine as well as the food. I am definitely going back to this place!!

This is one of LA's hidden treasures. Unlike other Indian restaurants in the city, the food is fresh, well-prepared and the service is excellent. In the know ask for the wine list not advertised to general customers. The wine list is

I have never enjoyed indian food, Until I stumbled into Akbar. I was looking for a bar and found the diamond in the rough. I was greeted by Atul and made me love indian food again. He started me with Chicken Kati roll, dal of the day, and

I have tried so many Indian places in LA and this one is the best. Nino, the host, is so friendly and always remembers your name and what you like to eat. The atmosphere is casual but lovely and the food is incredible. Every dish has a

Nino (the host) is really great...a warm person with an excellent memory of his customers. We just let him know how hungry we are and he puts together a menu for us. I have never been disappointed with anything he's chosen! The wine

I'm a huge fan of Akbar. Honestly, I haven't eaten Indain food much, but as far as food goes, this place is quality. The service was amazing (thanks Nino), food was cooked they way I wanted it and the wine selection was suprisingly

The food is awesome! We have eathen there multiple times and every dish we have tried has been wonderful. The owner is great, very friendly and accomodating. I just found out they deliver too!
