Curry Time — Restaurant in Pomona

I’ve been a long-time customer of Curry Time, from their El Monte location to the Pomona location, and have had both good and bad experiences over the years. Unfortunately, my most recent visit left me disappointed.

When I visited yesterday, the food appeared as though it had been sitting out for several hours—unappetizing and untouched. I ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala, and the chicken was noticeably dry. I also tried the cauliflower and potato dish, which had an unusual texture and didn’t taste as fresh as it normally does.

What added to my disappointment was the pricing. The amount I was charged at checkout did not match the prices listed on either the overhead screen or the printed menu displaying combo meal options. It was frustrating to be charged more than expected, especially given the quality of the food.

At $18 for a single meal plus another 6 for Samosas, the value simply isn’t there anymore—especially when there are other Indian restaurants in the area offering better food at more reasonable prices. It’s unfortunate, but I don’t see myself returning.

One last note: I strongly suggest hiring more staff. There’s usually only one person working, and on multiple occasions, I’ve found him asleep when I walk in to order. That doesn’t reflect well on the restaurant’s...

I've been looking for a place just like an express Indian restaurant just like Curry Hut in fullerton. Soooo many places didn't have a taste that they have it. BUT!! This place has it and the taste is even better with some spice in their chicken Tikka masala. Here my thoughts.

Pros: the taste is really good, and the chicken Tikka Masala has a great heat and great Indian curry taste. Service is great, the gentleman and lady are very friendly and the place is very clean. Price is reasonable, things used to be 2 dollars cheaper but since the prices of ingredients got higher, 10.99, 12.99 are very reasonable combo prices. Oh!! And most important, the Nan is very soft and it doesn't seem to get hard at all. Dudes you, if you love Nan Plz~ try this place's Nan, it is sooo good soft and flavorful :) In addition, they serve the food with microwave safe container. :D

Cons: my only pro will be the sound of the vent is little too loud? But it doesn't bother me too much, but it is what it is. Other than that, so far so pros.

Overall, this place will be your a go to express Indian restaurant and you will love it with their flavorful food. I definitely will become one of their regular customers, I will always visit here whenever I crave for Indian food...

It was very quiet and clean, which I highly value. The portion was large and the cashier was very polite. I liked it though the Tikka masala sauce had a heavy yogurt flavor and it was not as spicy (heat + seasoning) as I like; the chicken in it tasted grilled and added something unique. The black pepper chicken was way better in flavor, probably because of the vegetables in it. It's good. I would go back and try other options. They looked very appetizing. Also served with plenty of basmati rice and some naan. I paid about ~$17. . . . . . . . . I think I've been spoiled with this place called Mantra Indian Cuisine [in Riverside], though it had a different name before rebranding. Oh man. I dream about that place. The hot is the way to go if you are in the area. It satisfies the Indian food spot...
