50 Best Indian Restaurants near Parlin

“Very nice food, in Sayreville Highly recommend for catering“

“I got the chicken tikka masala with garlic naan. The gentleman that was at the counter when I walked in was very pleasant and accommodating. The chicken was good, I would say 7.5/10, and the garlic naan was out of this world, 10/10. I will be returning“

“PROs - hidden gem , homely food , serviceCONs- location , limited menu itemsI rarely give a 5 star . We were near Marlboro area and were craving for some vegetarian food . Saw Google and decided to visit this restaurant . At first , we kinda were joking around looking at the restaurant as there were no customers . Location was a bit wierd. .. we went in and asked if there was food and the Indian lady came and was kind of shocked to see 12 of us coming in . She said she will start cooking then and will take time .We almost wanted to leave the place because we weren’t confident of how fast they will prepare.. to all our surprise , she was able to cook food quickly and the food was deliciousssssssssss.. its almost like our mom cooking at home . We had unlimited thali.she brought us dolls , samosa , kichadi , rotis , undhiyiu, potato bhaji, gulab jamun, chaas etc. all my friends were happy and had a fantastic meal . She said to call her next time before coming , so she can prepare all food :) even though it was a slow start , we were so happy with the food .It’s truly a hidden gem . Both owners were sweet and the service was exceptional.“

“Today was my first visit to this location, and I prefer it over the Metuchen location. The Sayreville restaurant is absolutely immaculate, nicely decorated, and the bathrooms are spotless; everything is clean and modern. The food is as I expected: fantastic! I had the bhel puri and the hariyali noodle with shredded paneer. Both dishes were fresh and bursting with flavor! The rose lassi complemented the spices of the food, and the paan shot delicious! There is paan available at the counter, and five varieties of mukhwas at the exit. It was a great experience, and everyone was very nice.“

“Highly recommend!! Food, service and ambiance was amazing!!! Our servers were the best, shout out to Zeel & Pratik! We had the best butter chicken & chicken 65. Their kathi rolls was so good too. Zeel & Pratik recommended mango plaza for dessert, it was delicious! Will be coming back for more delicious food ??“

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

“Great food with consistent outcomes with every visit. We eat in the restaurant which is never crowded. I would like to see more people come in. Today our new favorite was the whole Pomfret fish. I didn't get a picture but did of our earlier choices. Itsxs great sharing time experience with your own favorite wine.“

“Absolutely loved the Indian fusion pizzas here — super flavorful and perfectly made for vegetarian and Jain preferences. Tried their Kathi rolls and burgers too, and everything was delicious. Great taste, great quality, and really kind service. Highly recommend!“

“Nagpuri Sahuji in Iselin, NJ, is a gem, renowned for its masterful saffron-infused Old Fashioned, an exquisite rarity. Their Puran Poli is exceptional, boasting a homemade taste with a generous filling and a thin, non-greasy cover. Not only is it authentically Sahuji, but it's also a haven for delicious food. Owners Neeraj and Swapna add a personal touch with their warm, down-to-earth hospitality. The ambiance and service are nothing short of five-star. A must-visit for an unforgettable dining experience“

“The host Ranjitha and team deccan spice were excellent. Would recommend to everybody😊“

“Good ambiance.tasty food.staff is very friendly. Would definitely recommend.“

“Amazing tasty food“

“Awesome place, food was so good, would definitely go again and recommend“

“I recently ate at Cumin N Eat, and honestly, the food completely lived up to the hype.

From the moment the dishes came out, you could tell everything was made fresh and with real attention to flavor. The spices were perfectly balanced—not too overpowering, but still packed with that rich, authentic taste that makes you want to keep eating even when you’re full. Every bite had depth, and you can tell they don’t cut corners when it comes to ingredients.

But the highlight for me had to be the wings. They were absolutely amazing—crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and coated in a sauce that had the perfect mix of flavor and heat. Not too spicy, not too mild—just right. They were easily some of the best wings I’ve had, and I’d go back just for those alone.

Overall, Cumin N Eat is definitely a spot worth checking out if you’re in New Jersey. Great flavor, great quality, and food that actually leaves an impression.“

“Best, most authentic Misal Pav and Kanda Bhaji! brought back memories of me growing up in Bombay. today was the perfect day for something like this and to walk down memory lane! The muggy cloudy rainy days only mean garmagarm Kanda Bhaji Garmagarm Chai! thank You thank You thank You!“

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

“My 1st time visiting tulsi. A new gem in east brunswick. The atmosphere is terrific inside the restaurant. Warm, inviting and authentic to the Indian culture. The food choices are awesome. Great portions and very flavorful. Only negative was with amount of rice offered. Two small containers. I had inquired if basmati rice was included. If had had known the portion was going to be that small I was going to order more rice. Other indian restaurants Ive gone too weren't stingy. Overall, fantastic place. Great flavors. This will be my new destination to enjoy Great Indian food“

“This place is an absolute foodie paradise!
I stumbled upon it in a hurry, and it was a pure delight for my taste buds. It’s been a while since I last had authentic dhaba-style food, and Punjabi Dhaba is the perfect place to satisfy that craving.“

“The food is really good. They have added multiple items to the menu. Live pani puri is the best i have tried and lasooni gobi is a must try. Other kathiawadi items are just as good as they were at their previous location. Looking forward to trying more items off their menu in the next visit“

“Finally tried this resturant and to my surprise was quite good and above average. Will definitely by on our go to indian restaurant when we need our indian food fix. Medium spice is perfect. Biryani was excellent. To add the staff very pleasant and professional. Byob and veggie options avail.“

“wow!!! This hit the spots! So much flavor... sooo goooooddd. I'm a huge goat fan and each dish we got was amazing!“

“First time tried Pakvaan for catering on occasion.Food was really delicious and very good service.“

“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.“

“Nice size hall, party setup, good tasting food, bar, and respectful staff for hosting 100+ people parties easily .. enjoyed the ambiance of the well managed place.“

“A beautiful, elevated setup for a thali spot—definitely a much-needed addition compared to other Gujarati thali places in NJ. The food tasted amazing, and the service was top-notch with prompt refills throughout the meal. I especially appreciated how kid-friendly they are; they didn't force a full thali on our child, which prevented unnecessary food waste. A fantastic experience overall!“

“Good and best quality Indian Food“

“Obwroy gave good service amazing place ,I came here very far place ,Food is always oshhm“

“Tried Saci Indian Bistro for the first time and I am thoroughly impressed! We ordered a mix of things, including their pasta and some sides, and every single dish was packed with incredible flavor. What really stood out to me was that they actually read and followed all of our specific custom instructions to the letter which is rare to find these days! A special shoutout to the peri peri momos they were completely on the spot with the spice level and flavor. Everything arrived hot, fresh, and tasted amazing. Great portions and fantastic quality. Will definitely be ordering from here again to try more of their menu“

“I ordered the Chicken Chettinadu, veg momo, and veg lunch combo — all were absolutely delicious! The Chicken Chettinadu had the perfect balance of spice and savory, and the veg momo were fresh, flavorful, and filled with a nice variety of vegetables. The veg lunch combo was satisfying and well-portioned, and the kheer dessert was fresh and mildly sweet — a perfect way to end the meal. Everything was packaged neatly and arrived warm. Highly recommend for anyone looking for flavorful, well-prepared Indian cuisine. I’ll definitely be ordering again!“

“First timer . I was in the area and was craving for a chai in the evening.. Google suggested this place.. I’ve been to other shops next to Kati rolls but never seen this shop . Wish they have a better name board on the outside . I couldn’t see their name in striking colors and could easily miss this while driving.. parking is good.. interiors is also good except that it’s too noisy.. himanshu was awesome . Helped with quick service and always smiled . Pricing wise they are ok.. not too expensive not too cheap kinda .

Got their elachi tea and I should say - it was awesome. It looked light brown in color and I thought there’s more milk and less tea.. but the flavor was very, very good.. regular chai was also good.. They gave me a chai for. 0.99 cents ! No other store has that price .

Kati roll was disappointing though. The guy there suggested achari paneer Kati roll and I thought it would be spicy and with nice flavors but it was bland and the paneer wasn’t cooked much: it was slightly hard and I couldn’t taste achaar taste. Pav bhaji with Anil butter was good though. Loved the flavor and aroma on that one .

Besttttt was rose paan .. oh my god . Never had a pan that tasty anywhere in Edison Nj. Very very good taste . I’ll always go there for paan , from now on . Good experience overall . 4 stars .“

“I recently visited this restaurant and had a great experience. The atmosphere was cozy, clean, and very welcoming. The staff was polite and attentive without being overbearing. and it was cooked perfectly—flavorful, moist, and beautifully presented. Prices were reasonable for the quality, and portions were generous. I’d definitely come back again and recommend it to friends looking for a relaxed“

“Saffron in Piscataway offers an exceptional Indian dining experience, blending authentic flavors with an elegant ambiance. The diverse menu, welcoming staff, and beautifully crafted dishes make it a must-visit for food lovers!“

“We had tasted the food in a friend's party and we had enjoyed it. We did a take out and we bought only vegetarian food. There's a large selection for meat as well.
I loved the vegetarian biriyani. The paneer starters were good too.
We'll definitely go back for party orders.
For dine in, it's a simple small place with a few tables. A bit cramped and noise level can be high if half the place is filled along with a loud Punjabi music.“

“Upon my visit, I was delighted by the extensive menu, brimming with options for both wings and pizzas. My culinary journey began with the "Indian Twist" and "Ginger Mango Chili" chicken wings. These wings are nothing short of spectacular! The flavors are rich and irresistible, with a juiciness that makes every bite a pleasure. The wings are perfectly cooked, and the aroma is simply mind-boggling. Knowing my kids' love for fries, I ordered the "Butter Paneer Loaded Fries." These fries were crispy, and the paneer, combined with a medley of spices, made them incredibly delicious. The paneer was soft and flavorful, and my kids devoured them before I could finish my chicken wings. Next, I indulged in the "Haka Chili" and "Shawarma Chicken" pizzas. Both were absolutely fantastic, bursting with flavors that tantalized my taste buds. The pizzas were well-baked, with a mouth-watering presentation that was truly eye-catching. It was a challenge to decide which one was better, as each offered a unique and delightful experience. The ambiance at Pizza Depot is equally impressive. The place is impeccably clean, and the staff is incredibly friendly and helpful, offering suggestions for those who might be overwhelmed by the tempting choices. Their passion for pizza is evident, and it enhances the overall dining experience. With so many other intriguing pizza flavors still left to try, I am eagerly looking forward to my next visit. Pizza Depot has earned my highest recommendation, and I wholeheartedly give it a 5-star rating. If you're a pizza lover like me, this is a must-visit destination that promises to delight and satisfy your pizza cravings!“

“Definitely recommend This restaurant food is so delicious everything taste fresh.👍“

“Chowpatty recently catered my wedding and their food and service was phenomenal! Not only did they create mouthwatering dishes, but they took into consideration of the type of food we were looking to serve our guests. They provided constructive feedback and went above and beyond to give us tasteful ideas that we hadn’t even thought of. The team expressed enthusiasm to give us the best experience we could ask for during one of the most important weekends of our lives. Chowpatty never treated our wedding as a job, but an event they were proud to serve. They continue to strive for the best and push beyond their limits to give everyone a truly, unforgettable experience. Thank you Chowpatty for giving our families and friends a weekend they are still reminiscing about! Purvi & Shiven“

“By yesterday, I can proudly say I have tasted food in all the restaurants on the food court. Astonishingly, I wasn't disappointed by even one. All cuisines were great and there are a lot (in Indian cuisine there are a variety of cuisines) you can try. The place itself looks a bit old and the tables can use a bit of work. I have eaten here since a few years and I assure you there is no change in the quality or the taste, I love how consistent they are. I've seen empires raise and fall but this place still keeps its place when it comes to food and service. Keep crushing it folks.“

“Not a huge fan of spicy food because my stomach doesn't handle it too well but I must say that the food is good. I got a butter chicken bowl with rice and veggies and it had a tiny kick to it. It was delicious and I handled the spice just fine. Also like the vibe of the place and the friendly service.“

“Me and my husband were both looking for a biryani spot and found this place on google. I’m glad that we did because the food was excellent. The flavors were top notch and the spice levels were noticeable between our two dishes. Yummy food, would come back again“

“We love Delhi Garden! Best Indian food we’ve had out of many many different places and great service too. Apparently our 13 month old approves as well! 😜 Highly recommend!“

“My husband and I were craving Indian so we decided to try this place. Firstly, picking up it was the nicest customer service. The man was so personal and friendly, it was like walking into a family restaurant. He gave me a tea, some yummy dessert and he didn’t even want to accept money for it.

Secondly, we devoured everything. It was all so delicious and it filled us all up. We got three things but the chicken tikka was amazing.

Overall, I would highly recommend ordering from here. You won’t be disappointed.“

“I have been going to Moghul for over 15 years and they never disappoint. The service is wonderful and the food is full of flavor. Always a great experience with staff and fresh“

“Came here last minute to get food, I do not regret my decision on coming here. The food was very delicious and yummy. Love this restaurant.“

“Excellent food and excellent service. We had the mutton in a large Kadai and it was superb.“

“Great place for good food“

“I ate here a few years ago - don't recall my whole meal but i remember it was good - love mint chuntey. The manager / staff was friendly. The space is small but organized and clean. Recently i ordered through uber eats - they had a buy one get one free promo on the chicken tikka. I also got a few orders of garlic naan. The chicken tikka with rice was good - moist chicken, good flavor and not too spicy. However the garlic naan was disappointing - it was a tad bit salty but mostly the bread was flat and dense - it should be a little more fluffy with a nice chew. Hope they read this and improve it - would give it another try.“

“Food taste and quality are good. Amritsari kulcha platter must try. Staff and service was nice!!“

“Loved their Chicken Dum Biryani, some of the best-cooked rice and perfectly cooked meat I've had in the US recently. It was an unplanned visit and totally worth it. We even did a repeat order of the biryani and will definitely be back!“

“Very tasty but very costly.“

“Rude owner and worse customer service! When we are with big group there is food quality change. Not giving onion or chutney. Poor service.“
