“We had an event catered out of state and can’t say how wonderful and professional Abhi and his team were. Not only was the food great and spot on but the service, smiles and positive vibes from his entire staff was amazing. The event was seamless thanks in large part b/c absolutely no hassles from the caterer. The appetizers were fantastic especially the Raj Kachori which was a hit! Dessert was also unique with outstanding mithai which I have not seen elsewhere.
We would cater again from Abhi and his team“

Can’t wait to come back again.“

“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 !

“One of best street food I ever had. Owner was very friendly and nice too us. I asked the owner what dish is popular and well known and he said bhakri pizza and indo Chinese. So we got bhakri pizza, Dahi Puri, peri peri fries and chilli paneer. Everything was fantastic and my personal favorite was the peri peri fries. We ended our meal with milkshake and it was so yummy. The owner was very nice to us and he made sure we were doin great. I highly recommend this place if u are missing choice in India.

“I heard about Nimbu from a Mercer-Bucks-Hunterdon Eateries page on Facebook. I met a friend today for brunch to celebrate our birthdays. Nimbu offers a great vibe, excellent, tasty and fresh food, and our service was special. Liam was attentive, yet we were not rushed. My friend and I are long-term friends (and big talkers!) so we enjoyed a leisurely brunch and catch-up. I didn’t realize until I got home that we stayed beyond their closing time. We’d have never known. Service was so gracious. We were given a sampling of ice cream for a birthday present dessert, and we were welcome to enjoy every delicious morsel and minute. Thank you, Nimbu! We’ll be back.“

“We had our wedding reception at Ember, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! The service was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. The owner was incredibly helpful and went out of his way to ensure everything went perfectly. He truly went above and beyond, exceeding all our expectations. Everyone raved about how delicious the food was, and the staff were attentive and quick to help throughout the event. The pricing was very reasonable, especially considering the top-notch service we received. A huge thank you to everyone at Ember for making our wedding day so special and memorable!“
