From Samosa Chaat to Rabdi Jamun: A Foodie’s Guide to Riwaaz Indian Cuisine & Banquet

If you’re searching for a restaurant that brings together authentic Indian flavors, bold innovations, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere, look no further than Riwaaz Indian Cuisine & Banquet. Our menu is a journey - from street-style favorites like samosa chaat to decadent desserts like rabdi jamun. Every dish is crafted to tell a story of India’s rich culinary heritage while offering something exciting for modern food lovers.

This foodie guide takes you through some of the must-try items at Riwaaz and explains why our restaurant has become one of the most talked-about Indian dining spots in Los Angeles.

A Flavorful Start with Appetizers

Every great meal at Riwaaz begins with small bites that pack a big flavor.

  • Alu Samosa Chaat is one of our stars. Crispy golden samosas stuffed with spiced potatoes are topped with chickpeas, tangy chutneys, and a sprinkle of fresh herbs. It’s the perfect combination of crunchy, savory, and tangy - a true street food classic.
     
  • For a lighter start, the Hara Bhara Green Salad offers fresh greens, cucumbers, and tomatoes with a choice of Ranch or Italian dressing. You can even add avocado or cheese for extra indulgence.
     
  • If you’re craving something unique, try our Bakra Paya Soup, a flavorful goat trotters soup slow-cooked with vegetables for warmth and comfort.

Appetizers at Riwaaz are designed to tease your palate and prepare you for the bold journey ahead.

Bold Curries That Comfort and Excite

One of the highlights of Riwaaz is our signature curry collection. Each curry is carefully prepared with fresh ingredients, traditional spices, and slow cooking techniques that bring out the depth of flavor.

  • The Murgha Butter Tikka Masala is a creamy classic that never disappoints. Tender chicken breast is simmered in a rich, buttery sauce infused with aromatic spices.
     
  • For lamb lovers, the Memna Shank Shahi Korma offers a royal experience with shank rings cooked in a yogurt-based creamy sauce.
     
  • Seafood fans will fall in love with the Prawns Curry, which combines tiger shrimp with a thick, flavorful garlic, onion, and ginger sauce.
     
  • Vegetarian guests can enjoy comforting options like Daal Makhan Wali, slow-cooked black lentils with butter and spices, or Paneer Butter Tikka Masala, featuring cubes of paneer in a creamy, tangy sauce.

Each curry at Riwaaz is bold yet balanced, giving you the perfect taste of India on every plate.

Fiery Tandoori for Flavor Lovers

At Riwaaz, our tandoori dishes are cooked in traditional clay ovens that infuse every bite with smoky, irresistible flavor.

  • The Murgha Tandoori (half chicken, bone-in) is marinated with herbs and spices before being roasted to juicy perfection.
     
  • Our Multani Paneer Tikka offers a vegetarian delight, featuring marinated cheese cubes paired with bell peppers and onions.
     
  • And if you’re craving something luxurious, the Memna Keema Rack - a baby lamb rack topped with spiced lamb keema - delivers an unforgettable experience.

Every sizzling tandoori platter excites your senses before you even take the first bite.

Fusion on the Menu: Desi Pizzas & Calzones

What truly sets Riwaaz apart is our fusion menu. We take classic Indian flavors and combine them with beloved international dishes for a whole new experience.

  • The Chicken Tikka Masala Pizza has become a favorite among our guests, featuring smoky chicken tikka, green peppers, and onions on a cheesy crust.
     
  • For something unique, the Shrimp Pizza with spinach and roasted garlic brings together coastal freshness and earthy spices.
     
  • Our Kadahi Paneer Calzone takes paneer, peppers, and onions, wrapping them in a golden crust for a delicious handheld meal.

These creations prove that Indian food can be both traditional and innovative at the same time.

Sweet Endings That Celebrate

No foodie journey is complete without dessert, and at Riwaaz, our sweets are crafted to bring joy and celebration.

  • The Rabdi Jamun is a standout, combining soft milk balls soaked in syrup with a creamy almond rabdi sauce.
     
  • If you prefer something fruity, the Mango Passion Malai blends silky mango with passion fruit for a refreshing finish.
     
  • And for a touch of classic indulgence, the Strawberry Cake drenched in sweet syrup is always a crowd-pleaser.

Our desserts are more than just sweets - they are a reminder that food is also about celebration and happiness.
