“Exceptional Catering Experience: Quality, Service, and Dedication
We recently had the pleasure of using Spice House on Rt 27 in Edison, NJ for our event catering, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. We were thoroughly impressed by the overall quality of the food and the unparalleled level of service provided.
The variety of offerings were exceptional which included both Vegetarian and Non-Vegetarian options, ensuring all our guests were catered for. We also included few Indo Chinese varieties. Every dish was truly good and tasty. They did not cut corners, delivering excellent quality and quantity across the board.
The dedication to service extended to the delivery process as well. The food arrived in hot container pack, and it remained perfectly warm right up to the moment we were ready to serve, which made a huge difference to our event.
The staff's professionalism and helpfulness were top-notch. A special kudos must go to Ashish, who was incredibly helpful in guiding us through the menu and assisting with the selection of items and appropriate quantities.
Our sincerest hat is off to Mr. Surya for running such a wonderful restaurant and operation. We wish him and his entire team all the very best and highly recommend their catering services.“

“Great place for good food“

“Loved the soya chaap gravy, lucky to be the initial ones to taste. Do ask for it, it is yet to be on the menu.
My family members had hum-tum, malai tikka and mughlai pulav, they all were super tasty, India wala swaad aa gaya... 😋
Thank you Chef Rajveer for bringing such tasty food to the town. 😊“

“Chowpatty recently catered my wedding and their food and service was phenomenal! Not only did they create mouthwatering dishes, but they took into consideration of the type of food we were looking to serve our guests. They provided constructive feedback and went above and beyond to give us tasteful ideas that we hadn’t even thought of. The team expressed enthusiasm to give us the best experience we could ask for during one of the most important weekends of our lives. Chowpatty never treated our wedding as a job, but an event they were proud to serve. They continue to strive for the best and push beyond their limits to give everyone a truly, unforgettable experience. Thank you Chowpatty for giving our families and friends a weekend they are still reminiscing about! Purvi & Shiven“

““I recently catered from Persis Biryani (Piscataway)for a special event, and I am beyond impressed! From the moment I contacted them Prasad, Ashok and Shekar, their team was professional, responsive, and attentive to my needs. The menu options were diverse and customizable, and they helped me create the perfect spread for our guests. On the day of the event, the food was not only beautifully presented but also absolutely delicious. Every dish was bursting with flavor and made with fresh ingredients. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about how amazing the food was! I highly recommend Persis Biryani (Piscataway) for any event — they truly went above and beyond to make our occasion memorable. I have catered with them for several occasions and will definitely be using their services again for future events! Thanks Persis !!! Randall“

“Menu Taste Service Ambiance Nice Gesture Love ❤️“

“I ate here a few years ago - don't recall my whole meal but i remember it was good - love mint chuntey. The manager / staff was friendly. The space is small but organized and clean. Recently i ordered through uber eats - they had a buy one get one free promo on the chicken tikka. I also got a few orders of garlic naan. The chicken tikka with rice was good - moist chicken, good flavor and not too spicy. However the garlic naan was disappointing - it was a tad bit salty but mostly the bread was flat and dense - it should be a little more fluffy with a nice chew. Hope they read this and improve it - would give it another try.“

“On August 30th, 2025, we enjoyed a fantastic lunch at New Shan-E-Punjab. We tried the mix non-veg platters, goat biriyani, and the non-veg thali. The food was truly delicious, with rich, authentic flavors that made every dish memorable. The goat biriyani was outstanding—aromatic rice with tender, well-cooked meat. The non-veg thali offered a delightful variety, and the mix platters were perfect for sharing. The portion sizes were excellent, making it a great value as well. Overall, a wonderful dining experience that we would definitely recommend!“

“I really liked the buffet, there were lots of options, both vegetarian and non vegetarian. The staff was very helpful and reactive for any questions. I liked the dessert options with ice cream too. It was not too crowded at the time we arrived for lunch so we didn’t have any wait time.“

“food taste and quality as well as courtesy.“

“I was given the most amazing gift this holiday season. I got to take a vegan cooking class at Ruby's and it was the most amazing experience. not only was everyone at the restaurant friendly and helpful, Ruby was such an amazing and fun instructor. The recipe was amazing the food turned out great and it was experience of a lifetime. I would highly highly highly recommend her restaurant and her cooking classes to everyone I meet. Thank you again Ruby for hosting us. Scott and David Rudd“

“Food taste and quality are good. Amritsari kulcha platter must try. Staff and service was nice!!“

“By yesterday, I can proudly say I have tasted food in all the restaurants on the food court. Astonishingly, I wasn't disappointed by even one. All cuisines were great and there are a lot (in Indian cuisine there are a variety of cuisines) you can try. The place itself looks a bit old and the tables can use a bit of work. I have eaten here since a few years and I assure you there is no change in the quality or the taste, I love how consistent they are. I've seen empires raise and fall but this place still keeps its place when it comes to food and service. Keep crushing it folks.“

“Must try Raj Gari Bhojanam and wednesday buffet“

“PROs - hidden gem , homely food , serviceCONs- location , limited menu itemsI rarely give a 5 star . We were near Marlboro area and were craving for some vegetarian food . Saw Google and decided to visit this restaurant . At first , we kinda were joking around looking at the restaurant as there were no customers . Location was a bit wierd. .. we went in and asked if there was food and the Indian lady came and was kind of shocked to see 12 of us coming in . She said she will start cooking then and will take time .We almost wanted to leave the place because we weren’t confident of how fast they will prepare.. to all our surprise , she was able to cook food quickly and the food was deliciousssssssssss.. its almost like our mom cooking at home . We had unlimited thali.she brought us dolls , samosa , kichadi , rotis , undhiyiu, potato bhaji, gulab jamun, chaas etc. all my friends were happy and had a fantastic meal . She said to call her next time before coming , so she can prepare all food :) even though it was a slow start , we were so happy with the food .It’s truly a hidden gem . Both owners were sweet and the service was exceptional.“

“"Persis Biryani Indian Grill at Edison Oak Tree Road offers an exceptional dining experience, and their array of dishes never disappoints. Starting with the Gobi Manchurian, the flavors burst with the perfect balance of spice and crispiness. The Chicken Pepper Fry is a delight, tender and packed with flavor, while the Chicken 65 is wonderfully spicy and crispy. The Bagara Baingan is a must-try for vegetarians, with its rich and aromatic gravy complementing the tender eggplants perfectly.

Moving on to the dals, both the Chana Dal and Dal Tadka are cooked to perfection, offering a comforting and flavorful addition to any meal. The Chicken Mogulai is a creamy indulgence, with tender chicken pieces cooked in a rich and fragrant sauce. For those craving something with a kick, the Chettinadu Chicken is the way to go – spicy and full of bold flavors that tantalize the taste buds.

No trip to Persis Biryani is complete without trying their Chicken Tikka Masala, a classic favorite that never fails to impress. And finally, their Persis Special Chicken Biryani and Egg Biryani are simply divine, with fragrant basmati rice cooked to perfection and tender, flavorful meat that melts in your mouth.

Overall, Persis Biryani Indian Grill offers an unforgettable culinary journey through the vibrant and diverse flavors of Indian cuisine. The friendly staff and cozy ambiance make it the perfect spot for a delicious meal with friends and family."“
