My husband and I came to Bhookhe on a Sunday night in late October. I'd found Bhookhe while browsing Yelp and thought it looked great, and our experience here matched my expectations. Bhookhe is located on a Main Street in Artesia and there is ample street parking in nearby residential areas. We didn't have a reservation when we came in around 6 pm, but were seated immediately as the restaurant was only about half full. Ambiance here is simple and casual. A waiter brought over menus immediately. One unusual thing I observed was that they served us small bottles of water rather than tap water in cups. My husband was starving and wanted to order a lot of food, but the waiter counseled us against the amount we were about to order (a first) and told us to order less. We got four dishes, which still ended up being a lot of food. We shared the aloo tikki chaat, and the aloo puri as appetizers. For mains, my husband had the garlic naan and malai kofta and I had the maharani thali. I can say without a doubt this is the best Indian food I've ever had in the US. The food was bursting with flavor and super filling. Prices were also quite modest. After I ate here, I was already planning my next visit and telling my friends about it. Looking forward to coming back.

Actually ate next food, but we decided to pop in and try something her; omg so spicy. I don't even know what we ordered as the rest of my party picked everything, no hints that this was gonna be spicy, but when it arrived the owner stopped by to warn us. He was not wrong. This tamale like fish started off mildly spicy and then got worse. But, the food was good!

Friends recommendation on trying one of top 101 LA restaurants of 2023. The area is house of other Indian/vegetarian restaurants. Parking is free exactly in front but just for the first hour. Inside is inviting and the decor is Indian. Did I forgot to mention this restaurant is Indian/vegetarian? Mainly because most of the dishes are vegetarian. Spices are mild but can be spicy upon special request. There's several options of curry but all does not come with rice. Each customer is given a small bottle of water Order Maharja platter (most popular item), kadahi paneer (one of most popular curries) but request to be super spicy, garlic naan, pyaz kachori appetizer. The platter is huge for one person because it comes with three different curries and various of dishes while one plate has a dessert (according to the server). The kadahi pannier has onions, peppers and tofu and looks spicy when request to be super spicy. It's spicy enough to tickle your throat but not enough to burn you if you love spicy food. The kachori appetizer is fried, comes with two different sauces and has savory flavor. Overall, if you like Indian and vegetarian, recommend on trying this out

One of my favorite places in Cerritos in the little india area . They are only authentic rajasthani food. They have gatte ki sabzi . They gluten free bajra and makhi ki roti. Do the thali for the experience its amazing two people can easily share it . The kachoris were good . Service is good attentive and will suggest . It's clean their kitchen is small and weekends get super busy . Love the fact they are using recycled paper trays.

took my friends here to try chaat (indian street food), rajasthani food. I always come back here to get kachoris when I'm in the area. My friends who are not Indian tried the chaat and loved it. Service is very warm and it's a very traditional aesthetic setting.

I went all the way to Artesia to try this restaurant which bring authentic Indian Rajasthani food culture to here. In fact the decoration brings the vibe and even plates is traditional style made out of leave. They have a lot of options on the menu, plus they have Thalis which is good so you get chance to try a lot of items. I tried maharaja thali and Sartaj thali. I just blown away from the flavors it brings in mouth. If you want to really try rajasthani food, this is the place. My favorites is dal bati, pyaaj kachori and their kadhi. This place is busy on the weekend, but their service is faster though.

"It's Thali, can't wait to eat, Thali Maharaja. Spice I expect, oy, genuflect, a lot of food for me. Now, try your best to stay calm. Too much food, ring the alarm. Then, finish with the sweets to leave happy." - parody of "Prince Ali", Aladdin Bhookhe is a recently opened Rajasthani restaurant in Little India. Seeing new places nearby open give the impetus to try them out and show support. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=ogjXvH1nVcq0yfVyZrMhxQ&userid=xsT4KZTu_KnOVavtuXn4RA Maharaja thali- https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=Q2VCD314R_4542Tn9KiTtQ&userid=xsT4KZTu_KnOVavtuXn4RA A sumptuous amount of vegetarian food, Bhookhe's Maharaja thali provided an ample amount of food. The bati was rather dry for my preference, but everything else, especially the bowls of curry, were satisfying. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=h-B01dprpYZ9TbWlSaqpEQ&userid=xsT4KZTu_KnOVavtuXn4RA Service was good. The wait was minimal for the food. Ample amount of seating inside. Another party had a bratty toddler who wasn't into Indian food, so it made for a not so pleasant dining experience. Parking is metered street parking & nearby parking structures. Bhookhe is open on Mondays, which most of other businesses located in Little India are not. I had a fine Rajasthani meal at Bhookhe. The portions were good, and the Maharaja thali offered several food items in a complete package. I hope to return soon and try the rest of what Bhookhe has to offer. Highly recommend
