Bhanu Indian Cuisine & Market

Open since 2011, this San Gabriel grocery store and casual sit-down restaurant offers all the usual takeout favorites like chicken tikka masala, along with a few hidden gems from the family’s recipe archives. Try the chicken pakora—deep-fried fritters perfect as an appetizer—or Bhanu’s take on bhel puri, a sauced, herbaceous mix of vegetables and crispy pieces of popped rice.
