50 Best Indian Restaurants near Carteret

“Wanted to taste a new Punjabi restaurant in Central New Jersey and found this place through Google maps. Read their reviews and wanted to surely taste their food.. parking was a bit tight but fine . Location voice it is slightly off the main areas in Central Jersey.

Service could improve.. They forgot some order… they got garlic naan after almost 30 minutes.. .. Punjabi kulcha was the best . Super super good . Punjabi thali was also good . Garlic naan did not taste good… and so did paneer Tika Masala.. It was very average…. Lassi was really good…

Overall, it was a decent experience.. wanted to give 3.5 but gave a 4 .. for the price vs quality factor.“

Their Puran Poli is exceptional, boasting a homemade taste with a generous filling and a thin, non-greasy cover. Not only is it authentically Sahuji, but it's also a haven for delicious food. Owners Neeraj and Swapna add a personal touch with their warm, down-to-earth hospitality. The ambiance and service are nothing short of five-star. A must-visit for an unforgettable dining experience“

“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“

“From the very first bite, I could tell that these sweets were made with love, care, and top-quality ingredients. The freshness, aroma, and texture were absolutely perfect — every piece melted in my mouth and left a lingering taste of happiness. Whether it was the rich chocolate flavor or the traditional sweets, everything tasted authentic and well-balanced — not too sugary, just right.

The presentation was equally impressive! The packaging was clean, elegant, and handled with care, which made it feel extra special. It’s clear that attention to detail and customer satisfaction are top priorities here. I also appreciated the prompt service and friendly attitude — the team truly values their customers and makes the entire experience smooth and pleasant.

These sweets are perfect for any celebration, family gathering, or simply to treat yourself after a long day. I’ve already recommended them to my friends and family, and everyone loved them too. It’s rare to find sweets that bring such joy and comfort in every bite.

If you’re looking for something truly delightful, high-quality, and made with passion, these sweets are a must-try! I’ll definitely be ordering again soon. 😊🍬💖“

The fry chicken biryani as well as the boneless chicken biryani are very flavorful and the quantity is perfect for 2 people. I have tried a couple of the curries,chicken chettinad and mughlai and they are also quite good. One of my favorite biryani places in NJ!“

“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.“

“Excellent food and excellent service. We had the mutton in a large Kadai and it was superb.“

“Has been our goto Dosa place since moving to NJ in 93. Simplistic. No frills. Order. Sit down. Wait for your number. Get up. Grab food and enter bliss. The most tasty and delicious dosa in the north east. Sambar is near perfection. Perfect pricing and portions. We have numerous places near us and I’d still choose here for the price,taste and portion size.

Parking: While there is convenience of parking lot. Once it fills. Super hard to park. Only a dozen spots.“
