I've been coming to Mahan since 2012. I've even celebrated several birthdays and milestones here. The food is always great and it has great vegan options for vegan friends and family members.

Buffet is amazing as well as dining.

A nice place for vegan or vegetarian people. Although they have elaborated menu for non-vegetarian. Food is very delicious and priced right for the quality and quantity being served. Owner is very pleasant and customized food for vegetarian needs. Pumpkin Curry is amazing which you will not find in any other Indian restaurants.

Ordered the Tikka Masala Mughlai as picture looked great.

The reality was I got off cuts of thigh heavy in cartilage and bone. I was anticipating bone, but the way they prepared this dish made it very difficult to separate so eating was a risk and not very fun, feel a little shorted honestly only had a couple of bites of meat and the rest was bone and cartilage.

Very unfortunate.

Got takeout — very disappointed with the food. I’ve never posted a Google review. My disappointment in this food specifically motivated me to post this.

1) Ordering through Google makes adding potatoes required, so both dishes had potatoes.

2) Palak paneer was unseasoned. It seems like they added everything except salt.

3) Garlic naan was flat, dry, and had no garlic or any other seasoning.

I go here for the buffet on Fridays and Saturdays it's really super good and a really good deal. The only thing is I would just tell the owners not to play TV shows kind of in the background because when you're watching TV in the back room it ruins a little bit of the Ambiance of the restaurant but overall this is such good food and such a good deal. The food is absolutely outstanding and the waiters here the young guys are super super sweet and nice

Pretty good takeout option if you’re craving Indian food in the area. The samosas are crispy on the outside and soft/boldly flavored on the inside. Their homemade mango lassi is fantastic, rich yogurt base with a fruity blend. Naan is fluffy and fresh, and the curry is well flavored with tender meat. Curry doesn’t include rice like most places I’ve found nearby, and the prices of each item does add up—it’s not a cheap meal especially if you’re dining in for dinner. But overall would recommend and come back.

I called the restaurant at 9:10pm requesting for a table reservation… and they informed me about 9:45pm they take last order and I can walk in before that.
I reached there exactly at 9:30 and they turn me off saying they closed. The owner/ manager was so rude and arrogant. He was busy surfing his phone. Told him that we drove 40’mins to reach there and requested him to accommodate us , he didn’t even look at us and asked us to leave and no apologies.
Extremely Dingy ambience … Then one of my friends who had visited the restaurant, told me about how average and mediocre the food here is. So guess everything Happened for good.
Never going back.

Mahan on Main has amazing food. If you have the time or chance to try their Sunday brunch, alcoholic drinks are included. They have traditional Indian food if you don't want to try their brunch. I love their vindaloo dish and you can ask for less spicy if you cannot take the heat.

Review №68

Great food! The ownership has changed since they were at the old location near Garfield, however, the food is still really good and highly recommended. The service is great, nice and friendly. Just today, the main guy came running out a block-and-a-half after me to give me back the credit card I'd left behind!

UPDATE Aug 2023: Food is still great. Vegetable Samosas are hard to beat. Chicken Tikka Masala is amazing. One note, if you want the dinner experience, maybe don't show during lunch because you will likely be steered to more of a buffet experience. Call ahead to be sure!

Review №71

I feel bad since the service was excellent but I have to call out the overpowering use of fennel/cumin in the plain rice and plain naan. Maybe it’s a chef choice and they seem popular enough with the locals but is it too much to ask to have plain rice/naan? The tikka masala was subpar since the meat was super tough and tasted like days-old tandoori chicken. I liked the curry flavor but the texture ruined it for me, which explains the 1 star review. To end on a positive note, if I was desperately craving Indian food, a to-go order wouldn’t be so bad with homemade rice.

Food is good! The only issue and reason why I am giving them 4 ⭐ is because I ordered fried okra and it was really salty, too salty to even eat. I mentioned it to the guy that was serving us but he said, "that's how it comes". I am guessing it comes pre-made it something I don't know. He didn't offer to re make it.

We haven't had Indian buffet in years and don't feel the need to get out again for a few more years. The food was fine, since dishes were pretty good while others had their own spin to them. Selection was mediocre and the gulab jamon were refrigerated (not good). Most trays were very low on food.

Almost no spices used. Tastes like watered down Indian food. If you go out into the sticks in India they might not use heavy cream like we are used to, but at least they are full of spices. The chicken makhani (butter chicken) looked like chicken tikka masala but tasted like tomato bisque. Yes, it tasted as if they put a bottle of tomato bisque and mixed it with chicken.

Ten dollars for a buffet is quite cheap though, so if you just want to fill up on something that isn't complete junk food this would be a good spot. The staff was nice and the interior was good enough. My main concern is taste, however, so I will not be coming back.

Am not generally familiar with Indian cuisine, but the menu was well designed and easy to understand, and the food delicious (had a lightbulb moment when I realized if one food tastes plain and the other flavorful, it's because you're supposed to MIX them to taste - brilliant right)

Great food and it seems like a nice family run business.

But... lately it seems they have been skimping on the chutney and raita. Maybe due to the inflation we are experiencing today in 2022.

Unfortunately, the raita seems watered down. I've had to ask for more chutney because they only give you one small container with tamarind and one for the green, even after spending over $120 on different dishes.

That is all. If you go, you'll enjoy it. But for me, I need ma chutney and raita.

Just okay. More of a 3.5 star.

Lunch is buffet, but you can get a la carte as well.

Ordered half chicken tandoori, lamb vindaloo, and garlic naan. Tandoori took a while (25min?) but expected. Though I noticed the buffet had chicken tandoori as well. It was pretty dry and a bit bland? Lamb vindaloo portion wise was okay. Medium spicy has a bit of a kick. Flavour was strong. Garlic naan was okay as well. Garlic flavour not really strong. Can tell it sat around a little bit to come together with the tandoori.

Girlfriend ended up buying some more chicken tandoori at another restaurant right afterwards so take that how you will.

ordered food to go! we waited like 10min when we got there but that's fine, we were early. the owner brought us water while we were waiting and all the employees were super nice. it smells amazing in there. we aren't dining in right now due to COVID, but in the future we'd like to come in and sit down for dinner. we ordered chicken tikka masala, chicken biryani, plain naan, and laccha paratha, and they were all amazing. my one issue is that I thought the tikka masala would come with rice and it didn't... that was pretty disappointing for the price I paid to get home and have to make my own rice, which wasn't basmati so it wasn't as good. I don't know if I'm ordering things wrong or something, I'm just used to this sort of thing coming with rice. it was great food and an amazing pickup experience though so 5 stars, recommend!!

The food was decent to earn a star.
However the service puts this place down.

I waited 20 minutes just to have someone walk up to me and ask what I wanted to order. The food took another 35+ minutes

The servers had ignored my table multiple times trying to flag them down.

The butter chicken was good can't lie but the lamb shawarma was dry even coming out of the hot plate the lamb was luke warm pretty weird for food I waiting for 35+ minutes.

The owner or the hotel manager was really nice and greeted us really well. The food tasted pleasingly well. The gravy of Shahi paneer and butter chicken were almost same and could have been a little more indian taste like but overall the service was really good. We also had ordered indian tea but it did not arrive until the end of dinner so the cashier crossed it off from our check.. Overall good taste and great ambience

I had ordered from them once and the food was great. The second time I went to their restaurant to have dinner. The food was good, but the lady greeted us very rudely. She was taking an order for a table, which I understood, but when we walked in, she looked at us and pointed to the menus and said “take menus from there and take a table.” The tone was extremely unfriendly. We didn’t appreciate it at all.

My friend and I were surprised that the dishes only included the protein. No rice, or salad or naan. All had to be ordered separately. We added the rice (absolutely bland) and garlic naan. The young lady who brought the food suggested we add a curry and I am glad we did because that added flavor to everything else. However, after we got our food, we didn't see anyone for at least an hour. Not particularly busy. The lady was at the counter too. We had to call her for more water and the check. I had the mixed grill and I couldn't really tell one flavor from another. The chicken was a tiny bit dry.

Food is always of good quality my tiny bit of issue with this restaurant is the quantity of curry/vegetables it's very less. Just enough for 1 person. If that is fixed then 5-Star for sure. Owners are nice and friendly. In good old days (2019 lol...) was able to enjoy the ambiance and occasional chat with owners while dining

Found this place while craving Indian in the area one day, and I’ve been driving over from Burbank ever since when I’m in the mood. Super kind staff, out of this world flavor. I’m addicted!

Was looking for some late night food around and came across this establishment. Was welcomed well despite it being the closing hours and expected staff to be tired and all worked up for the day. I was sat down and shown through the menu items. Ordered the butter chicken (I believe they have a different name for it), some naan bread and rice. Everything was cooked fresh and was piping hot when I got back to my hotel. Cleanliness and covid 19 protocol guidelines was well we'll observed. Food may be a little bit on the pricey end but you'll be taken care of when it comes to portion size. I highly recommend this place for those fancying and authentic Indian meal!

We ordered the vegan thali for dinner using Google’s ordering platform. Very smooth experience, and the food was ready right when I went to pick it up.

I plated it at home before eating. My husband and I were able to share the vegan thali and loved the complex flavors and comfort of the curries.

Giving it a 4 stars because it is pretty pricey. I wouldn’t normally come here as the Indian restaurant in Rosemead is more affordable and has the no garlic no onion vegan option. I think $20 for a thali may be worth it for someone who doesn’t mind paying more. We ordered from here because it’s close to home but I don’t mind driving farther to save a bit of dough.

Today was the first time I tried Mahan in Alhambra. The food was amazing and staff was very friendly. A hidden gem in Alhambra. I’m going to add this to my list of local favorites!

The food at Mahan is always very consistent. I usually order Chicken Tikka Masala with Basamati rice and vegetable samosas. I'm never disappointed.

This spot is a solid 3.5, which isn't an option here, but it's a solid choice if you are looking for an all you can eat, Indian lunch buffet. The service is always good and polite. I would say there are several better options in Pasadena, but this one is conveniently located in Alhambra on Main Street.

Best indian we've had. The goat curry and tandoori chicken are to die for. Go for lunch buffet so you can try everything. Friendly manager and staff, great setting and environment.
