Niki’s Indian Food is a restaurant in Santa Ana California that serves Indian and other South Asian cuisine. Because of the Covid rules we had takeout and went home and enjoyed the food for dinner. This place doesn’t really have the best ambiance and for the price they charge the portions are very little, but the food is delicious.

We ordered garlic naan, white rice, chicken tikka masala, tandoori chicken, chana masala, chicken shahi, and some vegetable samosas. The food was amazing! If we ever pass the area again we will definitely get some food from here. We really enjoyed the food and highly recommend Niki’s Indian Food.

The donuts and coffee are delicious and always taste nice and fresh. We went inside and sat down and enjoyed some donuts and coffee. Overall we had a great time and recommend Dunkin’ Donuts.
Note: We went to Dunkin’ Donuts before quarantine in early March.

On July 4th, my family and I went for dinner to the Yard House in Carlsbad. The Yard house is a restaurant that is located in the Shoppes at Carlsbad. It is a sit down restaurant that has a bar included. First, we ordered some appetizers. We ordered some nachos and some boneless, barbecue, buffalo wings. Both of these appetizers were delicious and we all really enjoyed them.

After we finished our appetizers, we started ordering our meals. Simran ordered the BBQ Bacon Cheddar Cheeseburger. In Simran’s opinion the burger was a little bit messy and dry. She also says that if you are an athlete, or have a big appetite, you might want to order something a bit bigger as the burger is a little small.
Kiran ordered the Braised Beef Ravioli. She really enjoyed her dish. She says the ravioli and the sauce tasted great, but there was a little too much cheese, but other than that she enjoyed her meal. Mom ordered the Cobb Salad. She loved it. Mom was full after eating the appetizers, but she thought the salad was great. Dad ordered the Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich. He liked his sandwich because it was flavorful, spicy, and not too dry. For dessert we ordered and shared 3 triple chocolate cakes and some vanilla ice cream. We really enjoyed the food at the Yard House and definitely recommend the restaurant.
