“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 !“

“An excellent hidden gem in the midst of busy midtown. A touch of mystery behind velvet curtains where felt red booth couches await in an intimate and welcoming atmosphere. The set up is chic and not cluttered with tables well spaced for the quiet work lunch. We went for restaurant week, and had the chicken tandoori starter which was perfectly spiced and delicious, followed by lamb curry which was tender, soaked in flavour, accompanied by garlic naan and rice. Staff are friendly and service oriented, in lusing the host. I cannot fault anything. Will definitely make this a regular spot to try the other items on the menu.“

“Absolutely amazing meal! Was recommended to us by a friend, and we recommend it to you. A quick walk from our Broadway show, the meal was a perfect night cap. The mango margaritas were the perfect combo of sweet and spice; the cauliflower appetizer was bold and perfectly crunchy; the aloo gobi was wonderfully catered to our spice level and still full of flavor; the flaan was to die for. Resturant manager Rakesh Arban did an awesome job taking care of us. The atmosphere included colorful decor, mellow ambiance, and easy to talk to one another despite a somewhat full resturant.

There are stairs down to the entrance door. There are two single stall restrooms. The price was very reasonable given it's location and portion sizes.“

“Celebrated my daughter’s birthday here and it was fantastic! The food was delicious and perfectly spicy just as requested. The Chicken lal pari was tender and well-marinated, and the Chicken Parda Biryani served in the traditional clay pot was a highlight—full of flavor and perfectly cooked. We also ordered Chicken Vindaloo and Red Chilli Special Mix Grill. All dishes were absolutely delicious. The presentation, with the floral garnishes and elegant table setting, added such a nice touch to the meal.
Special thanks to Anuj, Dominic, Harsh, and Fahim for their incredible hospitality. They truly went above and beyond to make our celebration extra special. Thank you so much. Highly recommend for any occasion!“

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

“Amazing food. Loved the service given by the people around there. I really didn't expect to get such a good service at such an hour I;e 11:30am in the morning, that too on a weekday( Tuesday). The ambiance was neat and good. Highly recommend the lollipop dry and the goat dum Biryani that was suggested by the person over there. Perfect in flavours. Highly recommended for people who just loves food and flavours.“

“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...“

“I’ve been walking by Pranam for quite some time and finally decided to come in - I can’t express how much I’m wishing I visited earlier! I’m blown away by the quality of the food and attentive service. The Momo were incredibly tender and perfectly seasoned and the entrees from varying places in Asia impressed me. Special shout out to the imported beers as well - I got the Nepal Ice beer and am now looking where to source it for myself. Truly a hidden neighborhood staple -
I encourage everyone to check this place out. You won’t be disappointed. Promise.“

“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!“

“I ordered the chicken masala and veggie biryani. Chicken masala was Great! There was an Indian spice in the veggie biryani that I never had it before. The manager/owner was very nice/understanding and replaced my veggie order with a lamb dish which I prefer. I will definitely dine in and order for delivery , and can't wait to try other dishes. Thank you!“

“Amazing food, service. Family owned. Love it here.“

“Small, hole-in-the-wall Indian spot tucked away in Cliffside Park that you could easily pass a hundred times without noticing. I decided to give it a try because of the solid Google ratings, and I wasn’t disappointed.The order was prepared quickly and overall the food was pretty good.

The tandoori chicken cubes were very tender, though they could’ve used a little something extra to really take them over the top. Still enjoyable. The lentil soup was very good and stood out.

The menu has a fair amount of options, prices are baseline for the area, and the place was clean. Definitely worth checking out if you’re nearby.“

“Delicious food and great spot to dine with friends.“

“Good food reasonable prices highly recommend it“

“We visited this place for dinner on a whim while we were in New York, and we’re so glad we did. The ambiance was warm and cozy, with Indian music playing in the background, which added a lovely and authentic touch to the experience.
The food was not just good it was truly delicious. The flavors were perfectly balanced, and everything tasted fresh and well-prepared. We ordered saag paneer , Dal Makhni, and Naan, and each dish was excellent. The portion sizes were generous and satisfying as well.
A special mention to Mr. Deep and his Sister for their wonderful hospitality. They made sure our visit was memorable and comfortable.
I would definitely recommend this family run restaurant to anyone looking for great Indian food. Absolutely loved it 😍“

“Rudraks on the upper west side is a wonderful Indian restaurant. The food is fresh, delicious unique but familiar. The restaurant is cozy and people seem to really enjoy their time… having nice conversations. I have seen groups of families, couples and also individuals going to have a reasonably priced lunchtime meal Today. We had delicious lunchtime meal for $15 which included an entrée bread, rice, lentils, and dessert. You really can’t be that price and the food is really delicious not oily not greasy and the service is super kind and they make you feel like a very special customer. Thanks very much for such an enjoyable experience.“

“Stopped for lunch on a rainy Sunday with the granddaughter. Angaar was a wonderful experience. Quaint, impeccable, and excellent service. We were seated at one of four tables on the ground floor (looked like more seating on the 2nd level). The chicken saag, chicken with cashews, and naan were perfect - well-seasoned and hot from the kitchen. A special treat in the UWS!“

“I highly recommend this venue. We were very happy with the food, service and Diya's personal attention.“

“The service was very pleasant and attentive without being overbearing. Food was fantastic! Best onion pakoras ever!“

“Excellent service and food 🥘“

“We recently had Vicky Vij catering the wedding of our daughter. All I have to say is they are exceptional in all ways-- service, food quality and taste, hospitality, price. Vicky went the extra mile to make sure that every thing was perfect. All the quests appreciated and the compliments were endless. I wish Vicky Vij the best and wish that his name is not tarnished by others.“

“Visited the Drunken Munkey a few weeks ago with my brother and we really enjoyed the place. Great vibes, nice staff, and the food was excellent.

We particularly appreciated the detailed allergen menu, as we have nut allergies and that can be a challenge with indian food“

The staff is friendly, and the service is great every time. Highly recommend Kotha for anyone looking for tasty and family-friendly food!“

“We stopped in for some hot food, fast. This cafeteria-style South Asian restaurant serves delicious curries, perfectly-cooked rice, and generous portions of naan or raita bread. The price was right compared to other options in the area and the place was quiet and clean. We didn't really like the vegetable sides as much though, as they had somewhat unpleasant textures. Overall, we didn't let it affect our overall impression of an efficient and tasteful fuel-up.“

“Best in Class! We went for lunch two days in a row. Delicious food at a very modest price. Great taste, nice portiers. very friendly staff. And the cleanest restroom in NY. Recommended!!!!!“

Modern cozy ambience too to hangout with friends & family.“

“Nice place and super food.“

“Brilliant Food Brilliant Staff Brilliant Sevice Great Prices 5 Stars ⭐️“

“Stopped by on a weekday evening ordered the butter chicken, cheese naan, and chicken kati roll. My husband is south indian and agreed the dishes were well seasoned and chicken was super juicy and delicious even my picky toddler ate more than usual! We have been to the michelin 5 star indian restaurants that have cropped up with the fine dining trend, but nothing beats food that tastes like home (especially the price). Portions were generous and owner was polite. Hope to come back to try the buffet soon.“
