"DTLA restaurants have a well-earned reputation for being productions: long waits, aggressive themes, dress codes, and mandatory valet. Then there’s Badmaash, the fantastic Indian restaurant on the north end of downtown that’s as low-maintenance as they come. The food is affordable, the modern space is easy to get in and out of, and its slightly remote location makes street parking a possible reality. Ordering the tikka masala poutine is a non-negotiable." - jess basser sanders, brant cox
