BADMAASH Downtown LA

Indian restaurant · Downtown Los Angeles

"Badmaash opened downtown over a decade ago and is still the most popular Indian restaurant in the neighborhood. And it’s no mystery why—the food is fantastic. With a menu that features dishes like chicken tikka poutine, chili cheese naan, and masala potato fries, this isn’t strictly traditional Indian food, but it’s also pretty different than anything else you can get around town. Plus, the Historic Core dining room is fun, breezy, and works well for a casual pre-show dinner." - brant cox, nikko duren, sylvio martins
