This place combines great atmosphere and excellent Indian food. I would recomend this place to everyone. There is actually good Indian food in Los Angeles. My whole family frequen...

We went to Nirvana last night which my husband (tall, slim guy) but he could not fit his legs under the table so we moved to a lounge table. The lounge is nice but not really ide...

Excellent! 4/20/2004

Gorgeous decor! Excellent food! Came in with some friends and was graciously taken care of by a wonderful manager, Bren. Had a wonderful experience at Nirvana! Will definitely go back for more! more

Mmm, so good! 4/18/2004

Great food, great ambience and cool crowd! Some of the best Lamb Chops I've ever tasted and the dj on Friday night plays really well. 2nd time back there after attending my friend's birthday party and really enjoyed the sit-down dinner this time around! Highly recommended. Pros: Food, Music, Ambience more

HORRIBLE SERVICE, HORRIBLE MANAGEMENT 4/7/2004

Overpriced entrees... although good, way too expensive. Service was horrendous. I like taking my time, but this was ridiculous. No attention and we even had to get our own water. And the management. When we complained, they complained right back. Whatever happened to the customer was always right? Would not recommend although it has a great interior. With all the reserved areas, no place to sit. Pros: atmosphere Cons: , management, service more

Who made up the pricing...? 3/30/2004

I had the same experience with the rice and drink charges. $10 for A SIDE OF RICE!! And a notice that there are NO free refills would have been appropriate. The entrees were priced three times that of the appetizers, but the appretizeres were generous portions - two would be sufficient for a meal. Other than off pricing, I have to say that our food was delicious and the ambience was excellent - I cannot emphasis these two factors enough. Service was a little lacking considering that there were only two other occupied tables when I was there - we never had one consistent person helping us so I was a little confused. I would go back for the food..skip the rice...and skip the refill. Pros: Good Food, Great Decor Cons: , Pricing of Entrees more

service 3/29/2004

what a let down. I made reservations, arrived on time but was told I have a 20 minute wait! Plus I was not offered an apology suprisingly from a manager who was standing next to the hostess. Even if they said ""we apologize. we're new and still haven't worked out the reservation times"" it would have been fine. The restaurant is beautifully decorated but still needs some work, e.g. the glass aquarium walkway doesn't seem safe/secure unlike Crustacean's. Service was horrendous. It took over 30min to get a waitress to take our order. Even though it's a very small place, they definitely need more service people in the lounge area. Their saving grace was a newly hired hostess who was going beyond her duty to help out, and not just with us. Appetizers were tasty and the price was acceptable. Entrees way overpriced. I don't think I would return. more

Nirvana - $10 for a bowl of rice?? 3/29/2004

The decor was great, the food was great - but who the hell charges $10 for a bowl of rice which will get you two appetizers on their menu - also, no one charges $4 for a soda - and an additional $4 for a refill unless you're trying to make money any possible way you can to keep your restaurant going. Otherwise, the restaurant was great!!! more

Nuevo Indian Gem 3/24/2004

The ambiance is very cool and definitely unique for an Indian restaurant. The only issue I had was that food was not exactly Indain -- call it Cal-Indian? Entrees are pricey. You're better off sticking to the appetizers, which are tasty and come in large portions. Great lounge/bar area and outdoor patio. Pros: Ambiance, Bar, Vibe more

Great Vibe 3/2/2004

A little bit of the NYC in Los Angeles. This restaurant/lounge hybrid has an amazing vibe and great decor. Dinner is pricey, but go for drinks and order appetizers while you recline on huge beds. Biggest drawback is the service which seems to be improviing. Pros: ambiance, appetizers more
