You might pass it by at first glance. However, a closer look reveals a solid oak door with a beautiful Indian etching. Pushing past those doors leads to another world.
Welcome to Nirvana, one of the newest and hottest fusion restau­rants in Los Angeles. While trendy restau­rants come and go, Nirvana has managed to draw an eclectic crowd through the various theme nights it holds, and most of all it has emerged due to the unique and wonderful taste of its food. Owner Deep Singh is consi­dered a pioneer in the restaurant industry.
Walking into the res­taurant one is greeted by sensual red walls, with varying por­traits from the infamous Ka­masutra. In fact, the menu cover includes a quirky henna shaped hand with varying scenes of passion. One must start with the appetizers appropriately titled “Foreplay.” Stan­ding heads and tails above anything are the stuffed mushrooms.

A close second is the “Nirvana Grill sampler” which features various kebabs.
Once your taste buds are aroused, you must taste the best item that is not even mentioned in the menu: the “Bukhara Daal”. The term comes from one of the most famous restaurants in India called Bukhara. Bukhara daal is a lentil based thick soup made with secret herbs and spices the owner would not share with us. Other must have entrées include the “Nirvana Chicken” which is diced chicken stuffed with cheese and served with sautéed vegetables.
We wholeheartedly recom­mend the “Mango Napo­leon” which is mango slices with yogurt cream in a caramelized filo pastry topped with mango sauce.
