Other popular dishes include the Butter Chicken and Chicken Tikka Masala.

“I ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala spice level 4 out of 5 and it was delicious!! I love spicy food and this hit the spot. My husband, who’s the complete opposite with spice, ordered the Butter Chicken spice level 0. He said there was still a little bit of heat but the flavor was great. Huge portions, comes with either rice or naan,” Yelper Pauline S. said.

Hey, Sunshine Kitchen in Culver City was the other California restaurant to make the list, receiving the No. 1 spot for “hot and new women-owned restaurants” to visit this year.

Yelp identified U.S. businesses in the restaurant category that had opened up in the last year and opted into the women-owned business attribute on the website. They were then ranked using factors such as the total volume and ratings of reviews, while also with a passing health score as of Feb. 6, 2024.
