50 Best Indian Restaurants near Garfield

“Good service and clean Ample parking.“

“Best food ever“

“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.“

“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!“

“Very good food quality like the taste“

“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!“

“..most definitely the finest Indian cuisine I’ve tasted anywhere in my life. Menu takes some deciphering, but does not disappoint. Unique new school twists on your all time old school favorites. Chicken Tikka Masala on the menu is called (Madame Makhani), so you won’t want to miss that. The Don’s Lamb Chops, Rogan Josh, some rice and the Coconut Naan will complete your order and leave you amazed. Desert selections are also in code the menu, but the Cardamom Culfi (Handcuff) is a sort of ice cream the pairs excellently with the Gulab Jamun which is called (Masquerade Ball). This place is a must visit if you’re in Manhattan, NYC…and don’t be intimidated by the menu, the waiters are more than happy to help you crack the code.“

“Passerine is one of those places you instantly want to tell your friends about. Elevated Indian flavors, beautifully done, but never fussy. Start with the small plates—hamachi crudo, roasted cauliflower, scallion uttapam—they’re creative and seriously delicious. Mains like the Naga pork belly or slow-roasted cabbage are rich, comforting, and full of depth. The cocktails are smart, the wine list is tight, and the whole place has that cozy-but-cool vibe“

“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.“

“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“

“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 food and friendly service“

“Truely Homely Indian food“

“Our server's timing complemented the pacing of our meal perfectly. Personnel work with both speed and friendliness. Yelp users steered me toward this excellent spot. My friend and I split this dish. The restaurant exceeds what I expected.“

“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...“

“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 😊“

“Went at 7:30 on a Wednesday. Place was empty, which made us a little nervous. We got the “sit them in the window so it looks like we have customers” seat.

If you’re after UK or New Zealand–style curry, this isn’t it. But give it a chance—it’s still good. Nothing was amazing, but everything was nice. The naan was warm, and the flavors were solid. The papadums were soft, which isn’t great—they should be crispy—but that was the only real miss.

The setting was nice, the service was nice, and honestly, for Hell’s Kitchen just off Times Square, the price was very reasonable.

They even gave us a free dessert—gulab jamun, those syrupy donut balls—which was a nice touch.

Nothing blew us away, but we had a lovely time and I’d definitely come back.“

“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.“

“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 :)“

“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.“

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

“Very good service and good food“

“We had lunch here and Mr.Arun was very hospitable and engaging throughout our dining time making it a pleasurable moment for us along with our young kids! The food was so unique and flavorable; we could feel the taste in each bite of it! We has a lovely chat with Mr.Amit too! We had a great time! Thank you!“

“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!

“Excellent food and friendly service“

“Best meal I’ve had in a long time! I ordered takeout and already can’t wait to go back. I got the paneer tika masala and garlic naan which were both incredible. When I went to pick it up the atmosphere felt both cozy and sophisticated, and next time I go I definitely want to dine in person. The staff were very friendly as well!“

“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.“

“amazing food and service. thank you!“

“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 food always and wonderful drinks too!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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 ...“

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

“Absolutely love the food here. The service is excellent and very good. People are nice and helpful. The taste of the food is perfect. Very hygienic and cute and aesthetic atmosphere. Perfect for quiet nights.

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

“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 from Juhu Mumbai & recently relocated to NYC.
