Indian Restaurants near Avenel

“Favorite spot for authentic South Indian food, the service is fantastic just like the food here. My favorite is bisibhelebhat, ghee rava roast dosa and the kesari, itnever disappoints. This time I ordered the thali and some veggies gave a homely feel. The thali comes with 3 veggies, 1 sambhar, 1 rasam, dessert of the day was kesari. We also had Onion Chilli Uttappam which was tasty too. I always like the 3 chutneys thats their signature.“

“I know my way around Edison, and this is some of the best chaat and Kati rolls I’ve had. Really hit the spot. The presentation is gorgeous as well; the restaurant goes for a cute kitsch factor that is really charming. Kalyan made some excellent recommendations so we ended up ordering way too much food, but will have leftovers for lunch the next few days ;)“

The chap is a must if you never had it.“

“Had pomfret fry thali and veg kolhapuri. The thali was quite filling and the fish was fresh. Tasted a lot like homemade fish fry but the spice flavors coating the fry fish weren’t very strong.

“Had a chance to go for iftar buffet , food wise this is one of the best buffet I had in Edison. Only flaw was the way they set it up. You have to share table with Unkown people. Unfortunately we had a couple who were fighting on our table and me and my wife were in an awkward spot. Apart from that it was good experience.“

“One of the best Indian restaurants in New Jersey. The food was authentically prepared and delicious. Staff was attentive and courteous. The dinning room was packed with Indian clients. As the saying goes, if the ethnic restaurant is filled with clients from that ethnicity, it has to be good.Vegetarian options: We are not vegetarians but our friends who accompanied us are and they love the place so much they had the catering division cater their daughter's wedding.“

“If you love Indian street food, this is the place to be. It has various sub- shops serving dosas, manchurian, gol gappas, jalebis, paranthas, moms and meetha paan at a resonable price. I am happy that I do not live there, otherwise I would be visiting it on a daily basis.“

“Quality of Dosas and Idlis is good. However, masala was not properly cooked in Dosa and Sambhar had less salt than usual.Filter coffee and chai are good as well but can be better for sure.The dish that we liked best is Bhajji, definitely a must try for anyone new to this place.Also, the place is big enough to accommodate large groups of 6, 8, or even 10 people at once“

“Really great restaurant with an awesome variety of 100% Vegetarian Thalis. I highly recommend their Kesar Special Thali along with their Papdi Chaat Thali! They let you share plates and honestly 1 thali with saabzis would suffice 2 people, you may just have to order another separate Naan. Their special saabzi of the day was amazing, the rest of the saabzis varied from 'generic to alright'. Surprisingly, their ambiance is very upscale for a restaurant that is known for their Thalis. Highly recommend bringing the whole family and the service was super quick!“

“? Celebrating the 26th Aftar at Tabaq Restaurant, NJ ?After a long break, I revisited Tabaq for Aftar and was pleasantly surprised! It was an exceptional experience, nearly the best Aftar I've had. The reservation process was seamless, even for a Friday evening.I usually skip naan and gravies on buffets, preferring protein-rich options like BBQ. However, Tabaq's Chicken Karahi and Mutton Qorma stole the show, making them buffet must-haves. The service was impeccable.Apologies for the low-quality photos – they were taken post-Aftar in a rush.? Price: ~$28 per person (Note: Total came to about $33 per head with tip and service charges included)? Ambiance: 7/10? Service: 8/10? Drinks: A variety beyond the usual Pepsi/Coke, included? Lemonade/Rooh Afza: 8/10? Chicken Karahi: 10/10? Mutton Qorma: 8/10? Dessert (Kheer & Gulab Jaman): 8/10? BBQ: 8/10? Chicken Broccoli & Fried Rice: 6/10? Chicken Biryani (Pakistani Style): 7/10Overall Value: 7/10? Recommended? Absolutely!A delightful Aftar experience that goes beyond expectations. Will definitely be back!“

“This place never disappoints in food, service and atmosphere. During dinner it's SUPER busy and that says a lot! My family and I drive an hour to get to this place and it's definitely worth the drive. We get extra to have for breakfast the next morning??? They have a wonderful menu for everyone. Vegetarian and meat and kid- friendly.Kid-friendliness: They have a menu for kids. My little ones like tandoori chicken, vegetable fried rice, pakora, naan, puff bread, chicken Tikka masala( mild)... portions may be big but leftovers taste good the next day.“

She was very sweet and kind and she helped me choose the best food in the menu Keep up the good work and if you want to have the best experience in the restaurant come especially on Friday's.“

“No frills indo-chinese food with great customer service and a friendly host. Food catered to your tastes and cravings. Not a fine dining restaurant but the food definitely reminds you of popular staples from India. A little expensive, but worth a visit.Definitely try the chilli paneer, made with fresh homemade paneer every day. Hakka style noodles with a side of Manchurian gravy is also great.“

“Awesome place! Food was excellent and fresh hot Sambhar is too good. Must try! Sambhar dipped in Idli and Sambhar dipped in Vada!! Mysore Masala Dosa was worth it! So many options to choose from. Staff was friendly and courteous. Highly recommended!!“
