50 Best Indian Restaurants near Cliffside Park

“This is a great spot for the people that are familiar with the Indian cuisine and are looking for a comfort food spot. Their chicken curry was really creamy and tasty and the meat was tender. Their waiter was really kind and patient with us but the food did take a little longer than we expected. Also when you come in to this restaurant you get a strong smell of their Indian spices and overall food which might throw away some people but definitely not me.“

“Had an amazing dinner at Junoon! The atmosphere is elegant and cozy. The staff was friendly and knew the menu well. Every dish was full of rich, authentic flavors, and the presentation was beautiful. Loved the creative desserts too. Definitely a top spot for Indian fine dining in NYC!“

“After eating so much (pizza etc )we needed to eat something different, spicy and booked this gem,as it as near to our hotel. It was also our 40th wedding anniversary. We are from U.K. This was amazing perfectly cooked tasty home made authentic Indian cuisine. We had mocktails ( lavender was refreshing ). The tandoori lamb chops x4 were full meat seasoned beautifully and delicious. All other sides perfect too. Now in U.K. we hate restaurant Indian puddings they are usually bought in and awful/failure. After finding out the chef is the owner and a recipient Michelin star we were convinced to stay,try and this was the first time we have had authentic home made puddings; try Kulfi with rose water & also Indian rice pudding. The whole meal was exceptional great value and we will recommend this restaurant to anyone else visiting New York. Easy to find off Times Square /Broadway. Thanks for the rendition “ congratulations “ for our 40th. You are great ! A little gem of authenticity in big New York !“

“It was a wonderful experience after quite a shitty day. Elie was super helpful with her recommendations. The sea bass special was delicious (kiss the chef!). It was busy, but the service was fast and prices reasonable. We even received gulab jamun on the house in the end. We really needed that gesture, lol. Would highly recommend.“

“When I walked in the restaurant the delicious aromas let me know I made a good choice. The food was absolutely amazing with vegan/vegetarian options and even a complimentary gluten free appetizer. The staff was welcoming and the service great. The prices were reasonable, but the best part was the delicious food!!“

“The gentleman that waited on our table was excellent! The food was flavorful and delicious!!“

“Semma in New York City is widely celebrated for its heritage-focused approach, bringing rare and authentic Southern Indian flavors to a stylish, relaxed setting.“

“We got the triple schewan rice and noodles mix and vegetable manchurian gravy, both were delicious! It satisfied our indo-chinese cravings!
The service was prompt and ambience is good!
The only minus is the quantity of dishes which is pretty less for the price we pay.“

“Great food, great service and value for the money. Great atmosphere“

“Went here on a recent trip and had a good time. The Sharabi chicken tikka and ajwaini prawns were amazing and set the expectations really high for the main course. Sadly the Butter Chicken and Aloo Gobhi kofta were quite mid. I have had better at other regular non descript spots. Also ordered the Dal Makhani which was really good. Would definitely go back for the cocktails and appetizers but would skip the main course next time around.“

“I had such a wonderful dining experience here recently. Everything we ordered arrived fresh and full of flavor. The steam rising off the hot skillet was a perfect welcome to the meal, and the lemon slice on top was a nice touch.

The rice and naan were both excellent accompaniments to the main dishes. I especially enjoyed the vibrant green peas in the curry and the beautiful texture of the topped appetizers. It is a fantastic spot to grab a great meal on Grand Street.“

“The staff is genuinely welcoming attentive. We ordered butter chicken which was creamy and rich with just the right kick of spice. highly recommend“

“Great food , specially the veg curry, non veg curry and nan . We took Kadhai chicken, nizami paneer and both were excellent. House special Boneless chicken biryani and paneer biryani were average. overall great clean place, ample seating space , great service and very decent price. Will recommend to anyone looking for authentic and tasty Indian food in manhattan“

Treat yourself to this atmospheric speakeasy space that also has magnificent food.

Sit in the red velvet booths, enjoying fresh Naan and spectacular paneer.

The flavors and atmosphere will add to your own story.

Want something extra divine?

Go during lunch. At one point, we had private dining.

Oh what a story!“

Our hotel was about 1.5 miles and decided to walk it to work an appetite, it was well worth it. We ordered Chicken Biryani and Goat Vindaloo, my go to dish for rating Indian restaurants. We also ordered a Fried Sweet Potato Appetizer, Buttered Naan and Mango Lassis. Food tasted delicious and authentic. Good portions, Staff was attentive and accommodating, we packed and left our leftovers and picked it up after the show.“

The butter chicken was rich and flavorful, the biryani was perfectly seasoned, and the naan was fresh and soft. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the staff was attentive and friendly. A fantastic spot for anyone craving delicious North Indian cuisine in NYC.“

“Food was fabulous. We had a large party and tried their lamb chops, Okra, daal and bbq chicken with real charcoal flavor. Fresh tandoori roti just made everything better.show stopper was the gulab jamun créme burlee. I visit aroqa eventide I am in NYC. Their drinks are next level, taste and presentation both.“

“amazing food and service. thank you!“

“Food is delicious. Have ordered several times trying different dishes, never disappointed. Delivery is fast. I put in wrong address online once, called, and the staff resolved it swiftly, no problem. I haven't tried dinning in the store yet, but the place looks good.
I'd like to suggest making the complimentary sauces optional as I generally don't need them. Hate to waste food.“

“Rudra Indian Bistro on Cedar Lane is authentic as it gets. We have been here so many times and will always keep coming back because the food is high quality, healthy, and very delicious. We always start with the House Salad which is a great way to begin your meal. The Tandoori chicken is so juicy and succulent, and the Lamb Korma is one of our favorites. I highly recommend Rudra Indian Bistro! One of the best restaurants of Teaneck...“

“It’s usually pretty quiet here when I tend to go for lunch. The service has always been great and attentive. The portions are big I can rarely finish what I order. The best part is the pricing - I typically order a main with rice & naan and a couple glasses of wine and I always feel like I’m getting a deal. Definitely recommend!“

“Butter chicken, goat doori kebab is to die for. Roomali Roti - just had it after ages. No doubt NYC has an Indian restaurant which can compete with the likes of Dum Pukht in India.“

“Delicious authentic Indian cuisine with flavours actually doing a dhamaka - explosion of flavors as you eat it. Great service. One feedback - for such a happening restaurant the restroom is quite shoddy“

“Recently moved to the restaurant and this was our first Indian restaurant in the neighborhood. Tried the ka-chori since we were curious. Hard to describe what it is, but we really enjoyed it. Chicken tikka masala was very tasty. Lamb biryani was excellent. Highly recommend!“

“Siddharth took great care of us and recommended great options for our dietary restrictions. We loved the chicken seekh kebab, lychee ceviche, bhindi, and paneer razala. The paan negroni was strong and tasty. Venue is beautiful and well decorated.“

“They have amazingly tasty food 😉 food 🥘 and specially love their buffet“

“Chola is easily the best Indian restaurant in all of Manhattan and Northern Jersey. My wife and I drive in bi-weekly for their awesome food and ever changing menu. The staff is incredible and friendly, we've gotten to know them all and consider them personal friends at this point. Any time we can, we take friends and family to Chola. It's is the best!“

“Naan was lightly buttered and crispy, perfect for accompanying the flavorful curry, highly recommended“

“Amazing and Awesome Food.“

“Very good food & friendly staff. Will definitely go back Wish they had a liquor license 🤗✌🏽“

“Excellent food and friendly service“

“First time visited Jersey City My goodness the food was so delicious, the server was amazing and friendly feels so much like home. Highly recommended for you guys to try.“

“My first time really exploring Bengali food and I'm blown away. The Kolkata dishes are fantastic, and even the Indo-Chinese chili chicken was amazing.

It's BYOB here with no corkage fee as of this writing, but it's only beer and wine allowed, no hard liquor.

I highly recommend the vegan Cholar Dal, it's a Bengali yellow split-pea/lentil dish with panch phoron (Bengali five-spice) and mustard oil. Fantastic!! Be sure to order a side of luchi poofy bread.

My only complaint is my stomach could not hold more food.“

“Absolutely essential neighborhood gem. I honestly don’t know what I’d do without this place. It’s my favorite Indian restaurant in the neighborhood and I’m there all the time. The tiki aloo chaat and samosas are my go to starters - super tasty, super reliable, never miss.

The grill dishes are always on point too. The tandoori chicken hits every time: juicy, smoky, just really good. And the butter chicken… best in the city. I order it every single visit without fail. If you like some real heat, the lamb vindaloo is a standout and definitely brings it.

Plus it’s BYO!!! which makes it perfect for a chill dinner with friends. Total neighborhood staple.“

“The Indian food is really great! Had Saag Paneer, Butter chicken, butter rice and naan. Everything was really delicious

They also have several options to customize for spice

Tried the chicken tikka masala cheesesteak and didn’t think the the flavors went well together. But would recommend this place for the Indian food

The service is very great, waiters are attentive, friendly and greet you warmly when you come in“

“Good all around Good food,good atmosphere“
