50 Best Indian Restaurants near Hackensack

“Great food!! Went there for the first time!“

“Just found it on the way to our hotel when we stop at dominoes pizza ,so I just enter the restaurant and order burns road chutney paratha roll and mayo garlic roll and falooda for me and my husband. And don’t regret at all . Amazing food. And having authentic falooda after so long. I must say falooda was actually the hit better than Toronto. (We are visiting newyork from toronto.) very near by to our uncle’s home. So we will definitely stop by next visit to newyork for falooda for sure.“

“The vegetable platter was delicious, we ordered four different curries, two vegetarian and two regular ones. The mixed vegetable curry was okay, the string bean flavor was too prominent. The baingan bharta, chicken curry, and mango curry chicken was pretty good, but be warned the spicy is quite spicy. We also order mango juice and lassi, which were both very refreshing.

Vegetarian options: There is an entire section on the menu for vegetarian“

“Best food ever“

“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!“

“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!“

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

“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.“

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

“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...“

“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.“

“We came to try out this place thanks to a recommendation. Bratik, our server, was above and beyond. His recommendations were top notch and he even treated us to some unexpected menu surprises. We had the tandoori salmon (amazing with some tikka sauce on it), butter chicken and keema naan. We sampled the Bhel Puri, a delicious, crunchy app with tamarind chutney. Must try if in NY!“

“Truely Homely Indian food“

“Excellent food and friendly service“

“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!!“

“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.“

“Wow! That was so delicous!!!
We had visited Bombay Chowk a few times over the last few years but had never become a regular as we had never walked away having been amazed. But idk what changed, the food was SOOOO good today. We had the new lamb samosa, lamb biryani, chicken makhani and garlic naan. Everything was so delicous. Every bite a burst of flavor. Either I was ordering the wrong things during my previous meals, or the chef changed, or idk, to tonight they hit the mark for me and I was very impressed. I can't wait to go back!!! (We spent our entire walk back hom talking about how crazily good the food was today)“

“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).“

“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 would like to express my sincere appreciation to the chef for preparing such an exceptional meal. Every dish was beautifully presented and full of rich, balanced flavors. The attention to detail was remarkable from the perfect seasoning to the freshness of the ingredients, everything came together wonderfully.“

“Good food reasonable prices highly recommend it“

“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.“

“I love the food, the attention it's so good 👍🏻“

“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“

“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.“

“Everything was really great! We had quite the variety of dished including the chicken curry, butter chicken, tandoori chicken, lamb saagwala and the kashmiri roganjosh. The standout was the lamb saagwala. Highly recommend! You can't go wrong with any of the dishes. The service was good. We were the only table there so everyone was very attentive. Overall, good quality, great service, reasonable price for the neighborhood.“

“Taste was also really good 😊“

“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).“

“A not to be missed spot for classic and creative Indian cuisine. Chef's creations are innovative and delicious!“

“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.“

“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!!!!!“

“amazing food and service. thank you!“

“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.“

“Absolutely amazing!!! We will definitely be returning when we come back to the city! Pricing is fair and portions are spot on!“

“Best Indian food in this area. The food is prepared to your taste. Restaurant has a nice and pleasant decor. The ambiance is very relaxing, and you can have a conversation without screaming. The host is very welcoming and knowledgeable about the menu. You are never rushed and can leisurely enjoy your meal.“

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

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