“Amazing food, super flavorful and very light feeling where you don’t feel gross after eating. Service was great shoutout to Rakesh, very kind and fast server. And the fact that it is HALAL on top it, incredible. I go to a lot of Indian restaurants and this is one of best places I’ve been to.“

“The best Indian food I’ve ever had in my life. I have brought my whole crew of friends and family, and each one of them can’t stop talking about this place. The food is beyond flavorful and has gorgeous presentation. I would come back here in a heartbeat, always and forever.“

“Very good food quality like the taste“

“We love dining or getting takeout from Indian Kitchen. All of the vegetarian and meat based dishes are exceptional. Everything tastes fresh and high quality. When dining in, the service is always superb. They give great recommendations and sometimes a free rice pudding :)“

“Good People - Great Food - just Go! Food so Fresh!“

“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!!“

“We were in the city for 3 nights. I made reservations for the second and third nights. Left night one open. I found Saar online, it was less than a block from our hotel so we figured we'd give them a try. So glad we did. Nice place. Great, friendly service (Karim is the man!), and excellent food. I ended up cancelling the reservations I made for night 3 and we went back to Saar. Give them a try if you like Indian food. It was amazing!“

“A wonderful place with a creative menu. Very unique flavors. Try as many items as you can as each one is special. We went in a group and we were able to share and taste a variety of items. A very casual chic place, you don’t have dress up 😊. They had some original cocktails, adding a twist to the traditional ones. Definitely must visit. Be aware, you will need to make a reservation well in advance. They are popular and hard to get in.“

“We tried almost all of the small plates and large dishes. They were all hits with my favorite being the pulled lamb. The atmosphere is incredible and the chef stopped by our table multiple times to ensure we were having a stellar experience.“

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

“the customer service was amazing! I’ll definitely be recommending this place to others“

“One the best place to have desi food. Always love their food“

“Both excellent food, and service. Highly recommended! Attentive service by Adnan.“

“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.“

“The best Indian food I’ve ever tasted. I have visited this spot multiple times over the years and it never disappointed. They take pride in their food. It can be a bit pricey but
It’s worth EVERY penny.

The butter chicken and saag paneer are out of this world.“

“From outside it looks like Small boutique Restaurant specializing in Indian cuisine & I just found it while roaming around streets of New York during recent visit & this accidental discovery didn't let me down, food quality & quantity both are amazing, owner is present almost from 11 am to 11 pm & staff is courteous, highly recommended as I visited all the sought after restaurants in town but this one stands out for the gourmet Indian food.“

“What a great restaurant! If you like Indian Food, don’t hesitate to go! The food was AMAZING! They definitely know what they’re doing!!! We’ll be back!! I am adding to this review since I came back a lot sooner than I thought. Here’s what I had and it was amazing. Again, this such a great addition to our restaurant line up in the area. Don’t miss it. It’s great! must try the Atari paneer .“

“This is a nice, smaller Indian restaurant. The staff was extremely friendly and the service was very good. The prices were very reasonable, especially for NYC. The meals were good sized portions- we were disappointed that we couldn't take our leftovers back to our hotel because it lacked a fridge and microwave- would've made a great lunch the next day.

We shared Tandoori Chicken, Saag Paneer, Butter Chicken and Garlic Naan- ALL very good. They do not serve alcohol- that was the only reason I didn't give it 5 stars. A nice cocktail or beer would have gone along well with the meal. Otherwise, we really enjoyed the food.“

“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“

“waiter was good food was too good.not expensive..like it“

“Overall, it was pretty good. Chili chicken momos were really good and stayed crispy even when cooked in sauce. The garlic naan was fantastic and very well made. The vegetable thali was overall really good, but the dal was a little bland, in my opinion. They're very generous with the amount of rice they give you.

I was a little disappointed by the tandoori chicken. It was a little underseasoned, and one of the pieces was very overcooked and dry. The butter chicken was made well and tasted alright; it was too sweet/not savory enough for me. Too much added sugar, personally.

Service was good.“

“Do you ever just walk into a place and KNOW it’s going to get a 5 star review!?! Well, Gulab Indian Restaurant was this place. I cannot rave enough about the food, it was just amazing. And oh my God, the prices! Oh my God, the prices are AMAZING. First time in my life fine Indian cuisine was actually affordable. One of my favorite things about this place was the candles, they’re not electric! Lastly, the customer service was top line. The gentlemen working this store were so respectful and helpful. Would come back any day!“

“We had a great time at Junoon, special thanks to Jay, young and team … Food was mind blowing and overall it was great experience…“

“Excellent food and great customer service. Overall an amazing experience“

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

“I live within walking distance from Cardamom restaurant and eat there often. The food is consistently excellent, and the people are always welcoming. Highly recommended! If you're not in the neighborhood, it's easy to get there on the subway (it's right between the 40th St. and 46th St. stations on the 7 subway line on Queens Blvd).“

“Incredible restaurant and food! Chandu had great service and overall highly recommend!“

“Needed Indian food, this place delivered!! Very authentic. Samosa were delicious. Lamb Vindaloo was on point. Staff made sure the spi e was not going to be too much, and it was perfectly spiced. Chana Masla was very flavorful. Service was great, very helpful, and always on top of it. Boxed up the leftovers for me.

Vegetarian options: Typical Indian vegetarian food.“

“We had a great experience here just a few minutes ago when we were here for lunch. The food was really tasty. The server also took a lot of interest and asked questions about what we liked and suggested tasty entrées that we could order. We had a great time and we would come again. Thank you, Bombay Grill House.“

“Family environment. delicious food and better service. I prefer to order my food in Spice and Grill“

“The food that I got for takeout was amazingly good!!!! I got the butter chicken, garlic naan bread, and gulab jamun. I also got the mango lassi drink, and it was really good too! Service was great, didn’t take long at all for my food to be made. Pricing is decently good too, not too expensive but also not too cheap. 10/10 overall experience with everything. I will come back here again for more takeout, but next time I’m trying the chicken biryani for sure!“

“I have heard a tremendous amount of positive things about this restaurant. Today I visited with family at lunch time. It has a good atmosphere. The food was delicious and fresh, with perfect timing of serving. I would love to visit this place again!“

“While in NYC we had a craving for Indian food, and Bombay Chowk was a great choice.

The Indian restaurants we are used to have spiciness scales when ordering, but at Bombay Chowk the food is prepared at set levels of spice.

My wife had the chicken Tikka Masala and it was slightly sweet. Still flavorful and tasty.

I opted for chicken Vindaloo and the server warned me it would be spicy. Thankfully I’m used to spicy Vindaloo and oh boy did it pack a punch. Very flavorful, the sauce was thick and more like a stew than a curry. The chicken was cooked well and not dry.

All in all, it’s a solid option for Indian food in NYC.“

“We dine at the Darbar Grill every time we visit NYC. Friendly service and delicious food - we highly recommend it!“

“We have gotten take out from here several times and have loved the food. We go here for our Kerala food fix and the flavors are spot on. The food feels homemade and the spices are just right. My personal favorites are the banana leaf fish pollichathu, kerala chicken fry, chicken roast, chicken curry and fish curry with the tapioca. The owners are lovely people too!“

“The owner is so nice! This place is so delicious that any other Indian restaurant will be ruined for you! The cocktails are so good, and the butter chicken is to die for. Highly recommend.

Vegetarian options: Lot of veggies and paneer!“

“Taste was also really good 😊“

“Truely Homely Indian food“

“AMANDEEP SINGH! you are ONE HECK OF A HOST! 5 million stars for this guy! he suggested us the food we should order, literally changed our WHOLE order, and ..... and.... we L O V E D it! he is an amazing host, a whole hearted man, fun to be around, and his food is out of this world. I am glad we came to this restaurant. We are gonna come again. My date night, ended with the best food I had in NY so far. Cheers for the restaurant, and double cheers for Amandeep“

“The food at Passerine is delicious, though the portions are on the smaller side. The ambiance is truly outstanding—clearly a lot of thought went into creating such a welcoming and stylish space. I used to frequent the previous restaurant in this location, SONA, and I have to say the bartenders there were exceptional. It might be worth considering bringing back some of that talent to elevate the bar experience even further“

“I remember when this location was actually a cuban sandwich joint, then a pizza place that had nice pizza, then it became Spicy Bytes, my girlfriend and I were always so curious about this place but due to the odd weekday hours we never were able to tell if they were open. It was one day a week or two ago that I was walking around with my girlfriend where she suggested we try this place out since we noticed it was opened! Upon entering a young woman welcomed us warmly and showed us the menu, and took a seat. We ordered a Butter Chicken Curry to share and two orders of garlic naan bread, and got the curry at a medium spice level since my girlfriend can't handle spicy stuff at all, and she ADORED IT!

Upon taking her first bite of the butter chicken my girlfriends eyes lit up and widened, it was also her first time trying Indian food so I could tell she was very much hooked. We enjoyed our meal and were asked by the young lady if we needed anything else through out our meal, which I really appreciated. After eating we were both very satisfied and definitely plan on coming back for more. I am surprised they haven't done much with the interior since the last place since it still very much feels like the previous pizza place, but it honestly didn't bother me as this places food is something you should not miss :)“

“The food here is toooo good I’m obsessed. Everything is delicious, I had the chicken Tikka missala, the butter chicken, cheese naan, mango lassi and rose lassi. Everything I’ve had here has been incredible. The server was also really kind he gave us a sample of dessert and allowed my friend to sample the rose lassi before she bought it. I’ll definitely come back again and again.“

“Good food and excellent service!“

“I've been meaning to come by for ages and finally dropped by with a friend for an early Friday dinner recently. We didn't have reservations, but when we got there around 5:45 there were still a handful of tables open (it did fill up quickly shortly thereafter though).

We ordered two main dishes to share - the paneer do pyaza and the dilliwala butter chicken - and also got an order of garlic naan (comes with 4 pieces) on the side. (The curries come with a side of rice as well.)

I really loved the butter chicken - the curry was really savoury and flavourful, and paired so well with the light garlic naan, and the chicken was really tender. I would definitely recommend this dish.

The paneer was also quite yummy - the texture was lovely, each cube not too hard - and the sauce was very full and rich. This might just be my personal taste, but I did feel like there was just too much other stuff going on (peppers, onions, etc.) that the dish felt a little haphazard overall.

We also each got one of the mango lassis, which was really yummy. The mango flavour tasted very fresh and not too sweet, and I liked that the yoghurt didn't feel too heavy or thick to drink.

A very nice meal overall, albeit definitely on the pricier side. That being said, I do think the price point is reasonable for the quality (esp given NYC price standards lol). I'd love to come back with a bigger group so I can try even more of their dishes (esp the appetisers!).“

“A bit of an icon in modern-Punjabi culture.

Firstly, when I visited, it was a blisteringly cold day, but I was saved by the warmth of the masala cha and the chickpea dish.

The food and drink was great and it is not overpriced either.

In terms of being iconic, many of us have seen pictures of the deli on Adidas adverts, in music videos and the sorts so it became an interesting place to visit. Not only are the people nice to talk to, they are funny too which makes the experience that ever much better.

Highly recommended“

“Very good service and good food“

“I recently had the pleasure of celebrating my pre-birthday at Ishq Restaurant in New York, and it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment I walked in, the ambiance was warm and inviting, setting the perfect tone for a special evening. The food? Absolutely outstanding.

A few standout dishes that I highly recommend include the Gulab Jamun Tart– a unique and delightful twist on a traditional favorite. The rich flavors of gulab jamun combined with the tart base were a heavenly pairing! The Paneer Lata was another must-try. This savory dish was bursting with flavor, perfectly prepared with the right balance of spices and textures. And if you’re a fan of cocktails, don’t miss the Bombay Cocktail– it’s refreshing, vibrant, and adds an extra layer of excitement to your meal.

The service was impeccable, and the staff made sure every detail was taken care of. I couldn’t have asked for a better pre-birthday celebration. Ishq truly lives up to its reputation, and I can’t wait to return for another memorable dining experience! If you're in New York, do yourself a favor and visit Ishq – it’s a culinary gem you won’t want to miss!“
