34 Best Indian Restaurants near Hightstown

“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 !

“Everything is so perfect. Can not think of any better vegetarian!!“

“This restaurant is amazing The drinks and food are simply fantastic and the staff especially bartenders are the best Worth a try!!!!!“

“Friendly service, great vegetarian Indian fusion dishes!“

“Had a great experience at Dosa Grill! The dosa was excellent. Be aware that if you get cheesy dosa, it can be very cheesy. So just know what you’re getting into.

They even asked us if we wanted the potato filling on the side or in the dosa, which other spots don’t usually ask. My wife got it on the side, I had it the traditional way - inside. We also noted the Mysore Masala spread wasn’t as spicy as we’re used to. Otherwise the inside was clean and seating was comfy. Hope to join them for “Dosa Night” on Thursdays.“

“Amazing hospitality and delicious food! Best Soya chaap curry in this area! Will definitely visit them again.“

“the food is amazing! beautiful presentation, delicious food andcvery helpful servers who explained all the different dishes and patiently answered our questioms“

“Great 👍 food and great experience“

“For many of us longing for that traditional wedding feast served on a banana leaf, a visit to The Park Indian Restaurant is a must. The feast is served just like weddings back home with so many veg and non-veg dishes and most importantly with such warm hospitality that one feels like part of the family. It would be an injustice to pick a top dish because each one is a star in its category. Unlimited food at such an affordable price! We will be returning every time this fabulous feast is offered.“

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

“A group of us were there to celebrate a birthday when one person got sick (even before the food arrived). It turned out the person had flu. Ruby, Raj and Tony were phenomenal in their help, packing up the food and their understanding of the situation. Needless to say, the food is amazing and we will be going back very soon to finish our birthday celebrations.“

“We are lucky to have a Banquet hall like Rasoi in the town. It is perfect to have a small or big party. We recently had our Diwali get-together at Rasoi. The Food and service were top-class. The manager Prasad Kadam ensures all goes well and all guests are happy. The staff members are very warmth and welcoming. Once this place is renovated in the coming months, it will have a brand-new Banquet hall to host the parties. I hope Chefs will introduce and add new food dishes to the catering menu.“

“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.“

“This is definitely more of a takeout spot rather than a dine in restaurant, although they do have a handful of tables to dine in as well. The food is freshly homemade South Indian tiffins mostly along with some indo chinese and north indian curries. The quality is nice and tastes authentic. We got the Idli vada, mirchi bajji and a few indo chinese dishes. Definitely would go back for the reasonable prices.“

“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.“

“I recently ordered catering from Mint Restaurant and had a great experience. As a Princeton student, I received a discount with my student ID, which made the pricing very reasonable. The food was fresh, flavorful, and well-prepared, and everything was ready on time. The portions were generous and perfect for a group event. The service was professional and easy to work with. For both quality and value, Mint Restaurant is definitely one of the best in town. Highly recommended“

“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.“

“Excellent chef and delivery service“

“I have been a customer of this place for a year now. I usually get Chicken, Goat a vegetable dishes every other weekend. Their preparations are tasty and reasonably priced and the front desk personnel like Guru are very courteous and accommodating. I would highly recommend this place for Indian Cuisine.“

“We ordered the pav bhaji dosa and the aalo chaat and mango lassi every single dish was absolutely delicious. The sambar and coconut chutneys (dipping sauces) were absolutely point on authentic chutneys just like from Southern India. It did remind us of our mom’s cooking. The restaurant was very clean, well organized and the staff was very knowledgeable on the menu. They also have some really nice non-vegetarian options as well. Overall all the food was very flavorful and we will definitely be visiting again and highly recommend.“

“Great food - tandoori chicken and goat curry Must Try ☝️?????“

“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.“

“They have amazing biryanis and authentic flavors. Good selection of vegetarian menu. Chicken 65, Apolo fish and tandoori grill are my favourite dishes in their menu. They take catering orders for small and big events too. Whatever the occasion they serve you with warmth and comfort food. The best Indian food in this Dayton New Jersey area.“

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

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

“Excellent food! Nice staff! Excellent food!“

“Fabulous food, friendly staff……win….win….win Truly, a must Enjoy your experience there !!!! Will definitely be back“

“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.“

“Thank you for sponsoring food for the Annual Asha-Jyothi 5K event. Everybody enjoyed the Biryani.“

“❤ 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.“

“I don’t usually write reviews but this cake was delicious. My daughter loved her cake. There was perfect amount of frosting. There was Oreo filling between each layer and it wasn’t overpowering. Would go again to buy a cake without hesitation.“

“Great place for good food“

“This restaurant under the current ownership is one of the most hospitable and flexible places to host a party. The food is good and offers lot of flexibility with the menu. The restaurant management team realizes the importance of hospitality and really understands what is priority for the host of the party. I have hosted as well as attended parties here and I am amazed at the flexibility the owners offer. I can assure you that no other restaurant in the vicinity will be able to do what they do and that includes food and drinks packages (best price for the quality of food), time or duration of the event (they don't kick you out like others do) and the flexibility they offer to last minute changes (no one allows changes like they do). In short, you will not be disappointed and definitely consider them for parties at home or at the restaurant.
Recommend their Kulchas, appetizers and cocktails. The main course is also good.“
