“This is one of the best places to have south Indian food and the restaurant is very authentic. The ambiance is very decent but the food is so good. Especially their mann soru was out of the world“

“They have amazingly tasty food 😉 food 🥘 and specially love their buffet“

“A great choice for getting some high quality Indian food in the area, especially if you'd prefer to not deal with the hustle and bustle of Little India in Journal Square.

I highly recommend ordering anything from the tandoor - the tandoori chicken was perfect! And the portions are massive. I did think many of the appetizers and main dishes were quite overpriced, however.

That said, I'd definitely come back and try the rest of the menu!“

“Siempre que puedo lo visito, me encanta su ambiente y su comida 💕🇮🇳🇪🇨“

“I'm obsessed with this food truck! Fresh, made-to-order dishes at amazing prices. Family-owned, and you can tell they're pouring their hearts into it.

My go-to is the Paneer Kothu Paratha - ridiculously flavorful! The yogurt adds a perfect kick. Worth the 45-minute wait, trust me!

The chef works hard to get every dish just right. Don't let the wait scare you off - this food is the real deal. Support local and give it a try!

Vegetarian options: Paneer and Veg Kothu Paratha.
Panner and Chickpea Kathi Rolls.
Paneer and Chickpea curry
Dosa.“

“Delicious vegetarian Indian bites!“

“We have gotten take out from here several times and have loved the food. We go here for our Kerala food fix and the flavors are spot on. The food feels homemade and the spices are just right. My personal favorites are the banana leaf fish pollichathu, kerala chicken fry, chicken roast, chicken curry and fish curry with the tapioca. The owners are lovely people too!“

“A typical south Indian restaurant with vibes which make you feel like in any city of south India. Has a busy kitchen which might make you wait for your order. The food is fine and gives you the satisfaction of food back home up to an extent. Some of the items are worth trying but can't say the same about the whole menu!“

“The Hot & Sour Veg Soup is a delightful start to the meal. Just the right amount of spice and tang. A bowl full of warmth!“

“This cute little "hole in the wall" is truly a hidden gem! While in reality, it's no hole in the wall at all. You actually feel like you're in a small shop in India when dining-in with the colorful decorations, background music and overall setup of the restaurant. Not to mention the food, which was absolutely amazing! Very tasteful chaat and small dishes, each with it's own little twist. I got:

-masala chai
-mango lassi
-Chinese Frankie (get it on a paratha)
-Chili Cheese Corn Grilled Sandwich
-to top it off, get their Chocolate Pan - it was bomb!

EVERYTHING was 10/10. I loved the food so much, I get went again the next day.

Ask for Ajay or Shubham - very friendly folks who'll take great care of you while there!“

Staff are very smiling despite of hard work.

Don't miss Breakfast Buffets on Saturdays“

“I’m gonna go through the menu of this place and keep updating my review.
Chicken biriyani and chicken 65 is like my childhood, when me and my friends use to eat in India. Brings memories back if you ordering food order chicken 65 even if you not hungry as an add on, thank me later.“

“Food was so delicious today we ordered catering and we really loved the food of Amiya Thanks to all the chef and staff members!! Keep it up guys!!“

“The only restaurant we dine at in India Square! Literally here at least twice per month, and always our first choice when we want to stay in and order online. The food always comes out on time and delicious. We always get the special chicken biryani and chicken tandoori and they always come out flavourful and juicy. We’ve had their naans before too and they were also exceptional. I have noticed recently though that the food sometimes doesn’t come out hot.

My husband and I are introverts and we really appreciate the chill and relaxed service we receive. Not too pushy or hover-y, just comfortable. I also really love the vibe here! I absolutely LOVE that they show Bollywood on their TV! I don’t understand a thing, but it’s such a nice touch it makes the restaurant feel homey and local. A LOT of locals dine here too and the restaurant is never empty, if not full, so I think that speaks a lot about their food.

Overall, we love Southern Spice! Absolutely have been recommending to our friends, and now to all of Google!“

“We ordered takeout for the first time from this place, and it was fantastic! We had been wanting to try it for a while. We ordered the paneer timepass, dabeli, butter locho, pav bhaji, and cold coffee. The food was amazing—great portion sizes and a traditional taste in every item. The prices were very reasonable, too. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Best Swaminayaran Vada Pav.“

“Little India is my new go-to for Indian food! The flavors are incredible—each dish is packed with authentic spices and tastes amazing. The Chicken Biryani is my favorite; it's perfectly spiced and the chicken is so tender. The naan is always warm and fluffy and delicious.

The service is fast and friendly, and the food is always hot. It’s a little pricier than some places, but the quality is definitely worth it. Highly recommend Little India if you’re looking for amazing Indian food!“

“This is a must have in New Jersey. The wings ,chicken curry, rice and Naan was delicious. see you next time“

“I tried today thali menu..It was too delicious. They have different varieties of curry and add ons in the menu. We loved the Environment and one uncle was there from nepal he was too sweet and respectful. People who all are reading this Please go try buffet menu..“

“It is really good good with good quantity Very friendly staff and good at explaining their menu Must try“

“My family and I are from Hyderabad, India, and while we were in the area, we decided to visit this restaurant. I can honestly say, this is the most authentic Hyderabadi food we’ve ever tasted in America. Nothing else compares—not only to the food itself but to the warmth and dedication of the staff who prepare and serve it. The team is incredibly friendly and respectful of tradition, which we truly appreciated. They even offer weekly specials featuring classic dishes from Hyderabad that I’ve never seen on a menu in the U.S. Abbas Bhai welcomed us so warmly, taking great care of us and even treating my one-year-old son to a complimentary dessert. I can’t recommend this place enough. Look no further—this is a 100% must-try!“

“great menu that doesn't overlap with Prime or any other Indian places in the area. You can spend as much or as little as you want in there, as opposed to being forced to commit to a huge bill for one dish, which is rare and appreciated, and you can go for fried goodness OR a veg sandwich... everything's delicious. Same group and menu from Nandoo's in JSQ that still has lines out the door to this day... extremely welcome addition to Hamilton Park.“

“One of the best South Indian and North Indian Cusines in New Jersey. I have been dining there since they opened. Great hospitality. excellent staff. I hosted business dinner and treated friends. Love to dine there any time of the year.“

“સારા સ્વભાવની વ્યક્તિ એવી વ્યક્તિ છે જે મૈત્રીપૂર્ણ, આવકારદાયક અને આનંદદાયક હોય છે અને જે અન્ય લોકોને ખુશ અને આરામદાયક અનુભવે છે. ઉત્તમ ટિફિન સેવાઓ.+ સંપૂર્ણ શાકાહારી“

“Bases on the taste it's not recommended otherwise the location, Customer service and ambiance is good!!!“

“A perfect place to try any paratha, and butter chicken at its best. Very friendly service, and they ensure to make sure even rude customers who come with desi attitude is also treated well.. give them a visit and you will defenitly be well served...cheers“

“I forgot to take pictures because I was busy eating — it was so good!!
It reminded me of the delicious food my friends’ parents would cook and share with me.
The flavors were so deep, exquisitely balanced, and I savored every single bite of it.
And everyone working there were so kind and nice to talk to.

I can’t wait to come back soon.“

“Dosa Hut in Jersey City offers a delightful Veg Thali that includes rice, dal, vegetable curries, chapati, papadum, and a sweet dish. The flavors are authentic and well-balanced, though some items can occasionally be bland. The service is prompt, and the casual setup adds to its charm. Overall, it's a great spot for a hearty vegetarian meal.“

“Best food in town. Super Indian authentic food. Great staff and delicious food.“

“I have so far enjoyed all the dishes I have tried here. Very friendly staff and excellent service. Will definitely go back.“

“The food is very good but the ambience is not that great and the management should be a little more proactive in notifying people if their order is delayed or cancelled. Please don’t give a timeline and be very casual about not having the order ready by then. 5min is understandable but given the parking situation in Jersey city don’t make people wait for 20-30min .“

“This is a must try food truck in jersey city . They are providing an authentic traditional Indian food at very low price . My favorite food in the food truck is chicken combo after tasting it it’s give me memories of my granny cooking style .“

“Patel's Paan Bar is the Best. I ordered Singoda Paan from North Carolina, Bhavesh personally took care of my order and next day 8 am paan was delivered from NJ to NC. Fresh and The Best. Kudos for Great Customer service.“

“We went on a Monday night as a group, and it was the first time in my life that I tried Indian food (it was actually an Indian friend who recommended this place). They have very spicy options, but we ordered the mild options and they were perfect. Rating 10 for the food and service.
