“Nice indian restaurant in the area .super food.“

“My go to place for Khaman, Khandvi, samosas and a lot more Gujarati food. Awesome taste, food served always fresh. Next time, I am going to try thali, I heard it is very good.“

“Came here for the first time- we’re Vegans, and sometimes it’s difficult to find an Indian restaurant that has many vegan options. The staff went out of their way to help us find the vegan options on the menu, and when they were out of some ingredients to make certain dishes (it’s Diwali, and so it’s a busy time of year) that featured mushrooms and tofu, they actually custom created a dish so that we could try more of what they have to offer. A great experience, and will definitely be coming back!

When I ask for extra spicy elsewhere, I barely break a sweat. I’ve eaten a lot of Indian food in a wide variety of places and Taj Maher is some of the best I’ve eaten. The staff is friendly and welcoming. I would recommend to anyone without hesitation.“

“After a disappointing experience at India Garden in Traverse City

BayLeaf exceeded every expectation

The goat curry was outstanding 10/10

The chicken biryani and mutton biryani were authentic and perfectly spiced 8/10

The naan was fresh and perfect 10/10

What sets BayLeaf apart is that each dish has its own distinct flavor and character, rather than tasting like it comes from the same base gravy, which was exactly the problem at India Garden in Traverse City

BayLeaf feels like a true representation of Indian cuisine, with authentic flavors done right

The service was impeccable, the portion sizes generous, and the pricing was excellent for the quality

If you’re craving authentic Indian food, B Leaf is an absolute must visit, and we’d happily make the trip again just to eat here“

“Absolutely amazing. They're a family owned restaurant so I understand its hard with these times and coronavirus. Its hard to find good Indian food and I must say, I've been coming here for more than 20 years and I still will be coming more and more! Out of all the restaurants in parsippany & Rt 46, I specially come down to Wayne to eat this amazing food. my fav is the sag panir, malai kofta, and vegetable biryani. I love the one waitress and how she explained the spice levels according to chiptole and taco bell! the uncle who is the owner always greets everyone like hes known them for years. Like we are family, its heart warming since i dont live with my family. Amazing food, amazing people and amazing prices!“

“Good food good service well maintained restaurant well behavior staff I love the food definitely I will visit again“

“Top notch Indian food. Maybe the best I’ve ever had. Highly recommended.“

“So yum! Great recommendation from my sis in law.“

“Great service great food very clean environment😊“

“Fresh and delicious. Veg and non-veg. Many options. Highly recommend!!!!“

“Everything was divinely delicious! I highly recommend both the crab and spinach with goat cheese appetizers! The seasoning on the entress was amazing, you can taste every spice! Truly delicious is an understatement! As for dessert, I can't recall what the exact name is but it's a lentil based pudding and omg, pure heaven! The service, the atmosphere, the people, the place, the music, the cleanliness.....I absolutely loved it all! I adore this place! Can't wait to go back, every blessing for the new year guys! This place is top notch, and as a Greek who grew up in the restaurants (and is def a food snob) that's a huge compliment! I wouldn't just say that about any place, you guys sincerely deserve it! Bravo 🧿“

“We had an amazing experience hosting our party at Rishta Banquet. Everything was well organized, and the atmosphere made our celebration truly special.
A special thanks to Sajan and Mathi for being extremely helpful, accommodating, and supportive throughout the event planning and party. Their hospitality and attention to detail made the whole experience smooth and stress-free.
We had such a wonderful time and would absolutely love to host another party with them again in the future. Highly recommend!“

“We beat the rush. Cane in and ordered sat down and with in 15 mins had our food. There were those who ordered on line. The rush was so great some waited an hour before getting their order. We came in at 5:30. If you seriously need your order. Order between 5:00pm & 5:30pm or after 7pm. If you Can hold Out. LaZeez was that slammed. They with a full staff were that overwhelmed. Good food, great service. But choose your time in going. They only have so much room for flexibility. Maybe they need to buy the place next door and expand there kitchen?“
