“First time here! My family and I (party of 13)came here foe dinner to celebrate my 50th birthday 🎂 and it didn’t disappoint! All the apps and i mean cause we ordered alot was excellent! Order the lamb chops, the hakka noodles, and the salt and pepper prawns they were excellent, oh and the lasooni gobi! Our entrees were excellent…do try the punjabi khadi and the fish curry! The service was excellent , the staff were attentive, polite and did not rush us. Do try this place each regional dish will take you on a flavor journey you didn’t expect but will love!“

“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 great Indian spot! My mom and I came last minute as we love indian food and we had a phenomenal meal! We shared the samosas, goa shrimp curry, lamb rogan josh, baingan bharta (eggplant), rice, and garlic naan! And they were so friendly and even brought us dessert on the house. Excited to come back!“

“Very good food quality like the taste“

“Warm, modern, and intimate restaurant that has a creative take on Indian cuisine. Upon entry, we were greeted welcomingly. You’d notice the decor immediately—stunning and attention to detail from top to bottom! The menu had so much to choose from and the servers were extremely helpful with explaining the differences. But the star of the show has to be the presentation of the food and the flavorful sauces. Worth the city prices. Would definitely come back for another special occasion!“

“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!“

“Really want to give them a perfect 5, but their service was painfully slow, consistent with what many Yelpers have mentioned on their reviews. Getting reservations was a breeze, and the layout remains the same at this place, what was formerly Priyanka Chopra's failed venture - Sona.

Katie got us seated and George was our host/waiter - who was pretty difficult to spot throughout our time here.

Now that I am done complaining about the service, lets quickly get to the food which was absolutely fantastic.

What to get? The standout dish of the evening was Jackfruit Ghee Roast ($30) - the most delicious Jackfruit dish I have every had. Creamy, spice balanced, and flavor packed. This with Malabar Parotha was a banger combination.

Market Beets ($20) stood out in small bites, thanks to the delicious walnut chikki, and the smoked mayo sauce with Kolhapuri Chicken Bao was really tasty. Roasted Bombay Corn Ribs ($12) can be skipped, and so can the Biryani Chicken Wings ($16).

Their seasonal cocktail - a Gin & Tonic with cucumber and mint was refreshing. Cocktails overall were enjoyable.

We tried all their desserts which include a pistachio icecream, gulab jamun with coriander, and icecream sandwich. Desserts overall were an absolute letdown and I wouldn't recommend any of them. If you have an absolute sugar craving, go with icecream sandwich!

If they figure out their service staffing, I see no reason why Passerine can't be a New York favorite. With a gifted chef who balances flavor so well, the core ingredient of this restaurant is up to the mark!“

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

“The biryani was delicious! I ordered the dum biryani, and the portion was perfect for one person. The place is quite small and a bit cramped, and there’s no wash basin available, so you’ll need to use wet wipes. Despite that, the food and service were really good overall.“

“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.“

“Excellent experience the service is warm friendly and the dishes are visually appealing and delicious. Vegetarian options as well!! Chefs specials new each month too! For authentic eats order or dine in!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Parking available“

“Excellent food and friendly service“

“Truely Homely Indian 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...“

“Very straightforward Indian food although they have Nepalese food as well. The classic dishes we had were well prepared and delicious. An error was made with one of the dishes (we ordered lamb and received chicken) the let us eat the chicken and they provided us with the correct dish at no cost. I also appreciated the happy hour -- good quality cocktails with Indian themes for $9. That's pretty good for Manhattan. Polite and attentive service and did not rush us out.“

“I absolutely loved my experience at Bombay grill house ! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the aroma of spices instantly made me hungry. The staff were incredibly kind and attentive, always checking in to make sure everything was perfect.
Every dish was bursting with authentic flavor the butter chicken was rich and creamy, the naan was soft and fresh. You can really taste the love and care that goes into every plate. And it’s even better a second time for leftovers!!“

“This was my second visit to Paheli. It was even better than the first And it was excellent the first the first time. Highly recommended.“

“This place rules!!! The food was awesome and extremely flavorful and TASTY!!! I’ve been here a few times and the quality is always top notch in every way! We had the hey Siri, how do you spell Mulligatawny Soup (I guess I’ll leave that in to show my poor spelling skills…), Paneer Makhani, Lamb Tikka Masala, the okra and a fish dish and lots of Naan ALL DELICIOUS!! The Lassi was very good as well! Everyone that works here is super nice and the person that took care of us was awesome! She rules!!! Can’t wait to come back here and I hope you come and support a GREAT restaurant!! Thanks! 🙏“

“Taste was also really good 😊“

“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.“

“Good food reasonable prices highly recommend it“

“We’ve eaten at Gulab in Cliffside Park several times, and the food is always excellent. The chicken tikka is flavorful and tender, the chicken biryani is perfectly seasoned, and the naan comes out nice and warm every time.

The atmosphere isn’t anything fancy, but the consistently great food more than makes up for it. Definitely one of the best spots in the area for a reliably delicious meal.“

“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.“

“Great food, friendly service and comfortable ambiance. We highly recommend this restaurant.“

“First time I had Indian food was a few years ago in NC, and I was NOT impressed. We were up visiting my sister in Ridgewood and we went out for fathers day dinner at Tabla. We ordered a bunch of different appetizers and entrees and we shared them all. I was absolutely impressed. I totally enjoyed EVERY item. I especially liked the curry fish with coconut milk. The service was exceptional and very friendly, it was an entirely enjoyable experience. I heartily recommend this Indian Restaurant in Ridgewood, NJ.“

“This is the only restaurant in NJ which serves food like home taste. I had Masala dosa, poori with aloo subji and sooji ka halwa, and I can say that I lived my life today eating this yummy food, which is not easy to get outside home. Good bless the owner, the cook and people working here. Special mention to Sushma who served the food with care and Rahul ji for great conversation. Thanks a lot.“

“Awesome Indian food taking the presentation and cuisine to the next level“

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

“The dishes here feel both new and somehow familiar. We felt immediately at home at Javitri Indian Cuisine! The staff displays remarkably good looks. Nothing seems to be an afterthought here. This spot exceeds expectations and I tell everyone!“

“Exceptional indoor modern Indian dining experience. The team is very professional and helpful in picking menu items you will love. This is what we ordered and we will be back soon for more! Appetizers: Lasuni Gobi Chicken Khurchan Khyber Pickled Mushrooms Mango Tulsi Prawns Main Course: Methi Paneer Malai Toast Garlic Shrimp Bhuna Dal Bukhara Pandara Road Wala Butter Chicken Garlic Naan Thanks Arnav and your team for a fun and delicious experience 🇮🇳🥘🍚🤩“

“Excellent food and friendly service“

“amazing food and service. thank you!“

“The ambiance of the restaurant was also noteworthy, with a cozy and intimate setting that was perfect for a romantic evening or a special occasion. I was thoroughly impressed by the attention to detail, from the stunning décor to the carefully curated music selection.“

“We wanted to find somewhere near 55th street, and Karahi Indian Cuisine looked ideal.
On arrival we sat down in a very pleasant and not too noisy restaurant with water at the ready and two colorful menus.

I asked if they could do a Madras and the chef said he could make one.
It was amazing. They read me perfectly, hot, but not too hot. And the flavour, it was delicious. Real care and original. Maybe a cliche, but certainly the most pleasant and enjoyable madras I've had. Maybe a New York flare? Maybe just authentic. But definitely an excellent meal. As for my colleague, he went for the mixed grill, and that, too was something special, lamb, shrimp, chicken, big chunks and beautifully presented. Luckily for me, my friend doesn't have as large appetite as I so I had some of his chicken and he was stuffed. I'm full too. The portions were really good. And we were asked if we wanted more rice, but even I don't think I could have had anymore. The staff were really friendly and genuinely interested in our enjoyment.

We both had Naans, I had a peshwari, and it was lovely. As we were going to a show, we didn't have time for dessert, but did stay for a little time. No pressure and just enjoyed a little rest. The food came in good time, maybe 10 minutes. They are really well set up.

Would fully recommend. Quality, tradition and passion would describe Karahi Indian Cuisine.“

“amazing food and service. thank you!“

“Attended a private birthday party there, requested mild flavor and ALL the foods are delicious! From the owner and crew are great especially Mavi! She brightened the room. It is highly recommended.“

“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.“

“We had late lunch there on Feb 19 and it was delicious, the service was friendly and attentive and they beautifully packed up our extras. The entrees came sizzling, the naan was tender and tasty and the Sag Paneer just as delightful as ever (I used to work nearby and came for lunch).“

“Delicious Samosas, crispy cauliflower, garlic Nan and butter chicken!“

“Off course there is food is very awesome they are way of carrying the people very different its never forgetteble moment its always memorable chef James I’ll recommend my friends and relatives we hope we will meet very soon thanks to everyone again ...“

“Great food and services ✌️✌️“

“Excellent okra, rosemary naan was ok, but the okra tamarind curry was wonderful.“

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

“Out of town guests. Went in on Monday at lunch time. Only guests in the restaurant. Food took some time to prepare, but it came out hot and fresh. Tandoori chicken was moist, tender and delicious. Also had Kadai Paneer - super tasty and Naan.“

“Delicious food always and wonderful drinks too!“

“I live 1 block away & get to enjoy Indian Tanpura's food whenever I want! Pictured are the vegetable samosas (2 per order), Saag Paneer, garlic naan & aloo paratha, and Chicken Kashmir.

Every time we order we get the samosa: absolutely excellent with the sauces & garlic. Saag Paneer is a standout too, that's part of most of our orders. We've tried almost all of the curried dishes, and others like Rogan Josh, lamb moglai and have enjoyed them all. Proceed with caution on the vindaloo, one of the spiciest I've had!

The staff is warm & welcoming, vibe inside is calm & classic. Highly recommend!“

“I am a spoiled Delhiite used to having all the delicious cuisines in Delhi. I can say.. Turmeric spoiled me in New Jersey now. Great Food Great Ambience. Food so close to home. Definitely a must try place.“
