First time here and I am so glad we went! Everything about the dishes was delicious! Made fresh as well. I personally loved my dish the Tika dilla! So yummy and so filling. If you have not been here, check Masala Mischief out! The food is great, service is excellent, and the people are very sweet.

Absolutely delicious! This place should be pack for lunch a dinner everyday. The Samosas are great and flaky. But my absolute favorite is the Chicken Tikka-dilla! My photo shows only half of it, very filling and tasty!

Going in with no expectations, I was very delighted by decor, customer service, food quality, and pricing! I was greeted as the first timer and was not rushed for order not sure what to get I was intrigued by chicken tikka fries and Indo Fusion noodles. Wait about 15 minutes. Food is made to order. I was happy to see people handling food with gloves on. The pictures speak for themselves; food was an absolute 10/10. Quantity was plenty for less than $23. Will be back for the fries again. Highly recommend. Its halal…

The paneer tikka masala fries are outta this world. I went in expecting fries with some masala on them, but this is the whole package. Paneer tikka gravy melted with cheese and fries . Well priced and plenty of food.

Thank you and good luck to this wonderful family! I can’t believe we found this place again after it moved from Food Lab in Riverside. Wow Factor. Family prepared savory cuisine with authentic seasoning, love and time invested in the food and product quality. I literally had tears of joy steaming down my face the first time I had this food. It’s made special by special people. Support this business you will not be disappointed. There should be a line out the door it’s so delicious.

This is possibly the only Indian restaurant nearby which does not mislead their customers in the name of biriyani. The biryani they offer here is very close to my favorite Kolkata style biryani. A must try for anyone who wants to check out authentic Bengali biryani. Highly recommended.

I went in on impulse. Nice looking small place with small area of sitting. I don’t know how long it usually takes them to do the order but I felt like I waited much longer than I should have given the food was already cooked (they plated out of food warmers), and I was the only one there. The naan was chewy and hard by the time I started eating (8 mins later and still hot). I would give them an extra half star for decent prices.

We love this place! My go to is the two items with double chicken Tikka masala and some garlic naan with a large mango lassi. I always say I am going to save half for later, then I eat it all. My son is vegetarian and usually orders the noodles or the veggie wrap with garlic naan. He has several other options which are clearly marked in green color on the menu. I have a friend that I recommended Masala Mischief to because she is Gluten Intolerant and they were able to easily tell her which options were safe for her to eat. I am always greeted and felt welcome, often by name. We highly recommend often and we are so glad that we found this place over a year ago. We do take out and dine in equally.

Was very excited to try this place, the pictures looked so amazing. It was our one cheat day so we went all in and tried the butter chicken sandwich, paratha chicken tacos, and samosas. The sauce used on the sandwich and tacos tasted mostly just sweet. As if was just made out of a slathering of pure tomato paste, we barely tasted any spices. Maybe it was an off day for them or someone messed up the sauce? The paratha alone and the samosas were very crispy and tasty. But I was so disappointed that I felt I had wasted my cheat day here.
