Reviews for Mantra Indian Cuisine in Temecula, CA

Alright so first things first, everything is separate here meaning if you want rice, and if you’re eating Indian food, you... want basmati, you have to order that separately! Please don’t think the 16-18$ you’re spending on a dish comes with anything- not even a garnish. Secondly, don’t order delivery from here. While our delivery girl was delightful, this took over anhour. The food was flavorful by cold. Who wants cold curry? Lastly, if you try to call the Temecula location - good luck! Thecalls don’t go through and when they do they go to a fax machine. Overall, terrible. Maybe in person is better but definitelynever again from me. Read more

A delicious Indian stop for dinning but the service is a bit slow. We happened to find this place while we were shopping in the... area. A pleasant surprise inside to, it’s a nice dinning area, and was fairly empty except for some families. We got lucky andgo there at perfect time. We started with some mango lassi which is also delicious. We ordered a few dishes to share and andthey came out fairly quickly. However they didn’t bring us out any rice. We got a few peoples attentions and they finallybrought some out along with the nann we ordered. The dishes are a bit funky and spill a bit, not the more resourceful fordigging food out of, but we made do. The food turned out to be fantastic, really good quality, and the price for portions ispretty decent. The service was a bit lackluster even when trying to get our bill but the food and the price and location yousimply can’t beat. Check it out! Read more

Dinner was good. The chicken Tikka Masala was good but a little too tart for me. The Chicken tikka kebabs were the best thing we... had tonight. We also had vegetable samosa the forgot the spice that goes on the outside so it was a little disappointing. Thegarlic naan was amazing. We asked for medium spicy and there really wasn’t any spice to anything. I would suggest asking forhot if you like spicy Read more

This is the best Indian food in Riverside county! Really though, everything I have ever ordered has been delicious, with... aromatic and distinct flavors. The naan is so fresh and fluffy. Read more

My fiancé and I are new to the area, and he had never tried Indian food before so we decided to go to Mantra one night. He... ordered the Lamb Tikka Masala and i got the butter chicken. It was AMAZING! The garlic naan bread was delicious and flavorful,the gravy was spiced well and meat were so tender, and the rice was cooked to perfection. We’ve been back 3 times in the last2 months because it’s one of our favorite restaurants now. I also recommend the chicken korma, delicious! The Service is greattoo. 10/10 would recommend for any date night! Read more

I ordered what I thought was 4 meals. I was disappointed with it. For what I paid, the portions were small. They put the 2... orders of tofu together, they were for 2 different people. Which was a bummer. All of the food was not tasty at all. It was notfull of flavor, like Indian food should be. I felt highly unsatisfied. I tried a spoonful of everything. If you are looking forthat good Indian food, I would pass on Mantra. Read more
