Desi Aroma
Indian kitchen on Milliken that also runs a pizza menu — an unusual pairing that works.
Desi Aroma sits in a Milliken Avenue plaza in the south of Rancho Cucamonga, and it runs two menus at once: Indian cooking alongside pizza.
That combination sounds like a compromise and mostly isn't. Indian-spiced pizza is its own small tradition, and a kitchen that can feed both a table that wants curry and a table that wants a pie solves the problem most groups actually have.
Indian menus are also the most reliable option for vegetarians in any American strip mall, which is the practical reason to keep this one in mind.
