"Few things unite Angelenos more than the dread of going to LAX. But if there’s one thing that helps us stomach the arrivals loop, it’s the prospect of eating at Al Noor before or after. The bare-bones dining room in Lawndale doesn’t have much in the way of ambiance, but once the food starts hitting the table, your eyes will only be focused on the feast in front of you. They excel at dishes like lamb qorma, palak paneer, and puffy garlic naan—many of which are front and center on most Pakistani restaurant menus in LA. But at Al Noor, it’s like you’re eating them for the first time." - nikko duren, brant cox
