Beware of buying frozen foods from this place. Apparently they shut down their freezer at night. And turn it on in the morning. I found out because I went to buy something and everything in the freezer was basically warm. They turned it on in front of me and when I said but all this food can't be good anymore, they said no it's gonna be fine.So they just re-freeze whatever gets thawed due to improper storage? IDK but my faith is shaken in how they treat frozen items and making sure they are stored properly. It's sad because I've been buying from them for over 10 years. Disappointing.

Lovely small shop.Holds every spice you can need/think of! Both whole and ground. Must stop shop if you’re trying to stock your spices cabinet without breaking the bank.Refrigerated/freezer area is bit sketch but I got a yummy frozen dinner.Tiny, clustered, and filled to the brim.Not much for service but that don’t let that discredit everything else this shop holds :)

Came here to look for Ayurvedic skincare products; specifically for products with neem and was able to find all I needed. I asked the woman working for assistance, and she advised some others that I ended up getting also.

I know my Indian food, longtime vegetarian eating at the vegetarian places in Los Angeles. Friend of mine was staying with me and he might know more. Went to college at Reed, best friend is Indian. Currently doing his residency in internal medicine in the Bay Area living with said friend's parents actually. Couple years ago we tried every Indian place in Culver City to decide on which one had the best dosas. Answer- none. One had better sambar, another the crepe, another the filling, yet another the coconut chutney, another the spicier one. Today I went to this place for the first time despite it being the closest of all of them to my house. And I was blown away. Easily the best. Avoided it before because the ambiance is simply terrible- there's none. And it never seemed welcoming, you didn't see people entering. In fact you didn't see anyone inside hardly at all. As soon as I got the dosa it just smelled different. In a better way. Went with a friend who I introduced to dosas a couple months ago. He too noticed the difference right away. Everything tasted more complex. The crepe seemed to have a little something extra, almost like buckwheat. The potatoes were more interesting, more spices and ingredients. The coconut chutney was more enticing, now I suspect the other places just microwave the frozen shit they sell. Only one I wasn't sold on was the spicier red chutney, could have been bolder. Sambar was more lentilly, and just better. I'll be back. It's about a mile walk. I don't need ambiance to enjoy authentic food. Chatted up the only other customer while I was there, nice Indian gentleman who told me it's his favorite place. Only four stars because you gotta have SOME ambiance for the 5th though. The place is drab, actually drab might be an improvement. Don't ask me why they're not interested in making the place more visually appealing, maybe some nice ambient music, a paint job, some pictures on the walls. But this place had better food than the places with said ambiance and noticeably higher prices, at least as far as the dosa goes. We're talking Annapurna and Mayura and Samosa House.

There are lots of places around town with similar names. This one is a fantastic grocery store with spices, flours, yummy ice cream and produce such as chilies, eggplants and fresh curry leaves! Friendly, knowledgeable service! I like to pick up turmeric and cardamom in bulk here and brown basmati rice. Some organic options too! Making vegetarian Indian food at home is so easy and healthy and at this shop you've can get everything you need.

This is the most wonderful little shop. Produce here is always beautifully fresh and they have everything you'd ever need in a very modest space, about half the size of most Indian groceries in LA. It proves that you don't need a big place to offer everything people need for healthful vegetarian cooking. Always fresh curry leaves, ripe mangos, fresh fenugreek, nice selection of rice and dal and dry goods, the better brands of ghee, soft beautiful dates. I find that where many stores stumble this place easily succeeds. The people who work here are invariably gracious and helpful, I always feel at peace and unhurried and very kindly supported. Gentle chant music plays in the background and the feeling is nice. It always feels like a good choice to have come here. Put all this together, and I've been happy drive a little out of my way to come here for many years. Lovely people and lovely food. I hope you'll join me in supporting them.
