“It was our honor and privilege to be a part of a dear friend's B'day Bash last Sunday at Kochi. Dining at Kochi was one of the, if not THE, most memorable experience ever. We were totally floored by the exquisite food - and service - provided by Chef and Owner Mr. Jebu Matthew and his team. From the cool berry drink and amazing classic South Indian appetizers, to the numerous - and for us, many new - items that kept appearing in front of us almost magically during the main meal, served in the traditional South Indian style (on banana leaves), right through the delectable halwa and delicious jaggery rice payasam (desserts), we could feel the love and careful attention with which each item was prepared and pride with which each item was served. Plus, being served by Mr. Matthew himself was, in and of itself, humbling. He patiently explained the intricacies of each delicacy which helped us understand the complexity of the cuisine's varied flavors. To be actually seated (for hours) and served at the table greatly enhanced the culinary experience. We have rarely, if ever, felt that we have consumed a feast - but now, can proudly say so - because of Mr. Matthew and our experience at Kochi. This one-of-a-kind mesmerizing event will remain etched as an indelible lifelong memory. Thank you so much - for making this magic happen. Wish Mr. Matthew only the very best in all his endeavors !

“We really love Dosa Grill! The food is consistently delicious, fresh, and full of flavor. Everything we’ve tried has been great, and you can really taste the care that goes into the cooking. The portions are good, the flavors are authentic, and it’s become one of our favorite spots for Indian food. Highly recommend giving it a try!“

“We had gola express on my baby shower it’s was big big hit. Even though all the guests are same they all requested gola express again on my daughters birthday party. Each and every guest enjoyed so much both the times. Great service. Sharp on time and highlight of both the events. I highly recommend gola express. I will give him 10 stars …. Thank you so much to make my baby showers and Shivika’s birthday party social. ☺️“

“I honestly felt bad seeing Sumu’s Kitchen so empty when we walked in, because the food turned out to be absolutely amazing. This is genuinely one of those hidden gems that deserves a lot more attention.

What impressed me the most was how fresh everything was. Nothing tasted like it came out of a freezer or had been sitting around for hours. Everything we ordered was freshly made to order, and you could really taste the difference.

We tried the bondas, onion pakoda, dosa, Hakka noodles, mirchi bajji, and gobi Manchurian, and every single dish was delicious. The bondas and pakodas were hot, fresh, and crispy, the dosa was excellent, and the Hakka noodles and gobi Manchurian were especially good. And the coffee was sooo good — definitely don’t skip it!

Another big shout-out to Ganesh, the manager. He handled everything so well and was incredibly welcoming and attentive. The way he took care of the customers and managed the orders, you would honestly think he was the owner. That kind of personal attention made the experience even better.

If you’re visiting BAPS Swaminarayan Akshardham, this place is a gem right outside and absolutely worth stopping by. Especially if you’re vegetarian and looking for fresh, flavorful Indian food, please give Sumu’s Kitchen a try. Places serving food this fresh deserve to be busy!“

“Horrible food and catering. Avoid the Cafe Nicole at Holiday Inn as well as Shimla Catering.“

“Been there 100 times or more in the 80's & 90's but have discovered many other Indian Restaurants since then. I have to get back there with Mary and you guys.“

“Seems the management change is the impact, the to go orders are supplied with stale items and missing items on the order. Better choose alternatives. I have to wait for a long time as there is none at front desk to accommodate the to go order takeout.“

“Loved the food and service from attentive staff at Jhopri! We gathered as a small group for a birthday celebration, and enjoyed the time at Jhopri. Thanks for making our time there special and memorable. Special mention to the manager, Pradeep and staff who ensured we are comfortable by making all the arrangements.“

“Everyone there were so lovely , the Temple and grounds are truly magnificent and should be celebrated for its workmanship and dedication. The cafe was enjoyable, the food was delicious and reasonable. We also enjoyed the food market and gift shop, we brought home purchases from both. Thank you for an amazing experience.“

“Great experience at Nimbu, food was tasty, creative, and genuinely unique; everything we tried felt thoughtful.

What stood out even more was how wonderfully the team accommodated a food allergy. The team took it seriously, made us feel comfortable, and handled everything with care and attention. The service throughout was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming.

The space itself is beautiful too, with a great aesthetic and an inviting atmosphere that makes the whole experience feel special without being pretentious. From a fellow Indian, this place is authentically Indian.

Between the food, hospitality, and attention to detail, Nimbu really impressed us. We’ll absolutely be back and would highly recommend it!“

“Really enjoyed our visit to Madras Dosa! The place was clean, the food was fresh and full of flavor. We tried the Masala Dosa, Chicken Keema Dosa, and Pav Bhaji, everything was delicious. Prices were reasonable too. Definitely recommend this place if you want authentic Indian food.“

“I have eaten at a lot of Indian food spots and this has to be one of my favorite places. The owner is always super friendly and the food is delicious!! I highly recommend coming here if you wanted to try good Indian food. If anyone wanted a recommendation on what to get, my favorite dish to order is the paneer tikka masalaㅤᵕ̈“

“After our disappointing experience at another restaurant, we truly appreciated the care and effort your team put into making our visit enjoyable. From the warm welcome to the quality of the food and attentive service, everything showed that you genuinely care about your customers.

Thank you to everyone on your team for going the extra mile. Your professionalism and commitment to creating a great dining experience truly turned our day around. It is refreshing to see a restaurant that takes pride in both its food and its service. The management deserves appreciation for hiring the right people who make customers feel valued and cared for.“

“Best chicken biryani in NJ so far :-)“

“Best Indian food in the Area . Support this place youll love it !“

“We live in Maryland and stop here anytime passing through. Excellent dosas and staff is so kind and attentive!“

“I ate at Dvaraka tonight. Princeton’s newest Indian restaurant on Witherspoon. Fantastic spot with great service and even greater food. The staff was so friendly, they gave us an extra dessert. I really enjoyed it and will go back. My friend ordered th goat curry and said it was the best goat he has ever eaten.“

“Been here many times, but mostly for the lunch buffet. Fantastic Indian food, although all the Indian restaurants in Princeton are good. Never had a bad experience here. Perfect service, good prices (at least for Princeton), nice location. Also very attractive decor. Not usually busy at lunch, but this is the best time to go as the all you can eat buffet is superb. Great choice for a reasonably priced date, to bring visitors or to go by yourself. Strongly recommend.“

“Definitely a must try place. I make sure to personally go here once per month. The food quality is great, and the food is authentic.

“Great place for good food“

“A great option for Indian snacks and eggless cake. Have a great experience with multiple birthday cakes and the three tier one was just the best from July 2021.“

“❤ Unfamiliar with the local restaurant scene, we stumbled upon this gem while exploring area garden centers about an hour away from our home and the experience went well beyond our, IMO, high standards. You'll never find us pulling into a fast food place. We love Indian cuisine (check) and vegetarian is quite fine with us (check); but if you like Indian food, this is the place to try vegetarian. The food was exquisite to the eye, nose and taste buds. The meat was not missed whatsoever because the taste was there. We could have been in India, as far as we were concerned. I hope this review drives you to this special spot.“
