Editorial recommendation
Roots Indian Bistro
Melrose Ave has long attracted the kind of creative restlessness that makes a neighborhood worth returning to, and Roots Indian Bistro reads as a natural fit for that current. The room is reportedly intimate and bright — mural-like decor, floor cushion seating — sitting comfortably above casual without drifting into the territory where you feel watched. It's the kind of setup that makes a midweek dinner feel like a considered choice rather than a fallback. The menu positions itself at the intersection of Mumbai classics and an unmistakably LA sensibility, and the dishes that keep appearing in conversations about this place reflect that dual ambition. The Paneer Masala Fries — crispy fries loaded with paneer masala, onion, tomatoes, and cilantro — are widely cited as the entry point that wins over skeptics of Indo-fusion cooking, reportedly because the combination is grounded in actual flavor logic rather than novelty. Butter Chicken Tandoor anchors the more familiar end of the menu with apparent confidence. Malai Kofta and Rustic Chicken Curry are the dishes that signal the kitchen is serious about South Asian depth, not just surface-level appeal. Samosas round out the appetizer side and are consistently flagged as a table-starter worth leading with. At price level two, Roots covers a lot of ground for a Los Angeles Indian kitchen — reportedly accessible for solo diners and coherent enough to hold a larger group together. The kitchen runs until 11 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays, which makes it a practical late-dinner option on weekends when other kitchens have already shut down. Start with the Samosas and Paneer Masala Fries before the table commits to mains.

India's Grill
There's something reassuring about a Punjabi family kitchen that's been holding down Wilshire Boulevard — India's Grill has outlasted trends most LA Indian spots chase, and the room knows it. Don't expect a stylized dining room: it's a single, basic space, everything made to order, Bollywood soundtrack running, service from people who clearly want you to stay. That unfussiness is the point. Start with the samosas, which regulars rightly call out, then move into the Chicken Tikka Masala — the sauce is the reason this place gets called an icon by Southern California curry diehards. The Tandoori Chicken earns its featured billing, and the Chicken Makhni Butter Sauce is the creamy, spice-layered house move worth splitting at a bigger table. Finish with gulab jamun. OpenTable lists it at $30 and under, though a full multi-course dinner can climb toward $60–70 a head, so calibrate accordingly. With a 4.7 across 5,000-plus reviews, this is a thirty-five-year institution that earns the loyalty rather than coasting on it. Bring a group; it holds.
