“I love it here. Been there a few times and every time it's delicious. I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 because last time I was there there were paper plates. I'm not sure why they didn't have regular dishes but it did change the experience. The food was still very good but the presentation not so much.“
“Best South Indian vegetarian restaurant.The food quality is excellent. The service is impeccable and super fast. The staff are very efficient and very friendly. We ordered filter coffee, buttermilk, medu vada and ghee roast masala dosa. Every single item was amazing. drove all the way from Massachusetts to experience the awesome food at Saravanaa Bhavan in Edison, NJ. Management/Owners kindly consider opening outlets in Massachusetts.“
“The samosas are big, flavorful, and not oily as some tend to be. Pindi chole is too tomatoey for my taste and tawa roti is small. You need an extra order of whatever bread because they all seem to be small in size. Would recommend the aloo masala kati roll. Plenty of vegan options (ask as well).“
“This is my new favorite Indian place in the area. The vibe is trendy and relaxed and the food is amazingly good.The eggplant bruschetta is beyond belief, masala tostones are great and the curried lentils are so so tasty.It is on the pricier side but well worth it.“
“My recent visit to Kabab Time left me utterly impressed! The attention to detail was evident in every aspect, from the warm greeting by the staff to the exquisite presentation of each dish. The decor exuded elegance, creating an atmosphere that was both cozy and upscale, perfect for any occasion.“
“My wife and son took me to this restaurant for dinner on my birthday. IT WAS AMAZING!! Cozy and warm are how you feel when you enter. Sonny the owner and restaurant’s namesake was professional, kind, funny, and super thoughtful- he went next door to get me a waffle and ice cream dessert and put a candle for my special day.We ordered the Samosa Sampler and right away you can taste the difference and the quality.For our main course we had white rice, Butter Chicken, Lamb Rogan Josh, Railway Curry Goat, and Aloo Chick pea spinach. Also tried the plain naan, garlic naan (my personal favorite) and garlic cheese naan.Highly recommend this place for great vibe and excellent Indian food!Dietary restrictions: Vegan and Vegetarian options available“
“I arrived after 10:15 p.m., but they were still open, and the food was excellent—perfectly prepared kadai chicken and roti blended really well together. The staff was also very kind and sensitive to our needs, making us feel quite welcome even though it was closing time. Regards Thanks especially to HARISH “
“Went as a last minute decision. I was so happy that we did. We started with the vegetable sampler platter. Our main courses were chicken vindaloo and mango curry chicken. The food and service were both exceptional. I would highly recommend the restaurant. Will definitely come back and bring the kids.“
“We had a great time eating. Food was delicious. Every dish is a delight. Ambience is welcoming. The hostess Priya was friendly and accomplished in many ways. Spoke many languages as an added bonus.

“Went for lunch to try this place as they do specialize in marathi food.Sevice was fast and really good and fast. We did have a chance to talk to the owners as well and they are very friendly people.

“Great place for fine Indian cousine. Cocktails are amazing. Food is delicious. Rodrigo, Dennis, Victor, and our favorite Govind provides excellent customer service. We love coming here for private events, family dinners and couples night out.“
“Went here with a group of 5 for the first time as we were craving Gujarati/kathiyawadi food and it did not disappoint. The service is excellent and the food tastes amazing.They offer three types of unlimited thalis - Gujarati, kathiyawadi and Punjabi. Have the Gujrati of you are craving your dishes to be a little on the sweet side like me and the kathiyawadi if not. I would not suggest the Punjabi thali as this is a Gujrati place and that is their forte.Vegetarian options: This is a fully vegetarian restaurant.Parking: This is in a strip mall with a free parking lotKid-friendliness: Indian restaurants are always kid friendly.“
“This place is AMAZING!! we were 11 people and they accommodated us no problem even though the place can probably fit 16-18 people max.The food is far and beyond. After living in India, it was hard to find a place until we came here. If I could, I would give it a thousand starts. We are definitely coming back.The service is great.

The chap is a must if you never had it.“

I was would like to recommend my friends and colleagues to visit the restaurant if you are near New Jersey area. Ask for a NAbin as a server. We will definitely visit the place again in future.Thanks!!“
“HEY - NOW THEY OFFER LUNCH-BUFFET! We were pleasantly surprised when we found that they offer lunch buffets on Wed and Thu, and unlike some other buffet places their buffet food does not taste anything like mass produced. Great spread also! And because we were a big group who had made advanced reservations, they even catered to our dietary restrictions and preferences. Everything about this place is amazing, the food quality, the service (very courteous staff) and the ambience! I highly recommend trying their buffet that definitely is Mahrashtrian/Konkani/Malvani. delicious ‘खेकडा’ भजी, fried सुरमई …list goes on and on. Good for big group (we were 21 of us) for sure as we had a great time.“
“Its a hidden gem on busy oak tree road, the ambience of this place tells it all, this is the most exotic party place in New Jersey, we did my daughter's sweet sixteen here, the food, service, cleanliness, staff, ambience, everything was beyond expectations, I would recommend 100%, Raj is the best.“
“Clean and comfortable restaurant. Srava the waitress will take the time to explain the menu. He is kind. The food is authentic. I recommend the tilapia dish. It is spice,rich and healthy. 100 stats to this restaurantKid-friendliness: Srava is very friendly“
“This is undoubtedly the #1 desi ( Indian + Pakistani+ Bangladeshi ) food place in NJ -- hands down. None of the super-hyped places like Mughal etc. come anywhere close, We ordered party trays of Lamb Bhuna and Bihari Chicken Kabab yesterday -- it was amazing -- out of the world.“
“We love Indian food & ordered from Clove Garden to give a new local business a try. Not only was the order perfect, but the food was excellent. They even added a desert for us to try, which was also really good. Happy to have you in Garwood!“
“Food is always top notch here. My usual go to is the goat biryani medium spicy, which is the perfect level of heat. Hot but not flaming. If you’re lucky, you’ll also get a bit of marrow which, if you’re like me, you’ll love.Their chicken biryani (boneless and bone in varieties) and hariyali kebabs are also great. Get the chicken 65 for a good starter and wash it all down with a mango lassi!“
“Tried out this place recently and the food there was delicious.aloo paratha here is just amazing super flavorful amristsari kulcha We also ordered their item daal makhni and mix vegetables it was the best decision because every bite felt scrumptious.Definitely worth visiting!“
“Probably the best Goat and lamb curry dishes in the area. Love the sizzling BBQ grilled dishes also. All dishes have lots of flavor with their own specialty spices. For the most part it's not crowded, only on weekends during evening hours. Seemed like I got slightly more food when I did takeout vs dining in. Food is piping hot even after bringing it home. I still prefer to dine in. Fast service and prices are good.Vegetarian options: Vegetarian options are OK. This restaurant specializes in the majority of non-vegetarians.Kid-friendliness: Brought both my kids, they enjoyed it. I've seen many kids there, friendly environment.“
“Begum Palace is a hidden gem that never fails to impress. The food is always fresh and flavorful, and the service is top-notch. The restaurant itself is beautifully decorated, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. I highly recommend the chicken biryani and the palak paneer. You won't be disappointed!“
“I’d give 10 starts if I could. This is the best hole in the wall type of restaurant. Quick service, affordable price, and THE BEST food in Edison! I moved out of NJ, but every time I’m in NJ, I eat here over any other fancy restaurants. Highly recommend this place!“
“Nice place, conveniently located by the Short Hills Station. Highly recommend coming here before 2 and checking out their lunch boxes - generous portions, not too expensive, and of course delicious.Also love their Malai Chicken Kebabs and Samosa Chaat.“
“I spoke to the owner about an issue l, I had found with one of the dishes. The owner apologized and expressed his concern. He emphasized the fact they do their best to offer best food to their customers.Although I didn't demand any compensation l, they didn't charge me for a dish equal to the price of the dish, I had complaint about.I am glad that owner took my complaint seriously and tried to compensate me then and there.There is a reason why shalimar is one of the best Pakistani restaurants in New Jersey. Highly recommended“
“Our very first time visiting Mughal. Valentine was great! He was extremely attentive to us and we enjoyed our family dinner. The food was great but most importantly Valentine made our day special by taking care of all the details. All in all wonderful experience.“
“Delicious twist on fusion food, with standout dishes like the tangy Manchurian. The atmosphere is casual yet inviting, perfect for a laid-back meal. Quick service and generous portions make it a hit. Definitely worth a visit for a taste of something uniquely flavorful!“
“This place is a gem! We came here because our initial plan of eating at tribos periperi fell through when they were suddenly closed on Saturday (maps said it was open). I had heard of Indian inspired burgers and fried chicken before in Manhattan, so we decided to try this place out.\\n\\nThe place has 1 table by the window, then a bar with some chairs along the counter, and finally an area with several more tables.\\n\\nYou order at the counter, they'll ask your name, so I thought it was self pick-up, but in our case they brought the food to us.\\n\\nWe weren't sure what sauce to use on the chicken wings so we asked about the masala and the walla, as those two sounded the most special/distinct. They let us taste the sauces and we went with the walla, it's super good!\\n\\nThey didn't take long to prepare our lamb burger, beef burger (medium cooked ?) and our chicken wings, along with a side order of fries and a side order of sweet potato tots.\\n\\nThe burgers were delicious, juicy but not too messy, with a very nicely cooked thin patty full of flavor. The fries and tots were both incredible too, couldn't stop eating them! The tots are more interesting, but I do prefer the fries because well made fries are always the best side.\\n\\nThe chicken wings were small but packed with flavor (we also did get 7 instead of 6, probably because of the size? Or maybe they were just that nice). I only tried one because my husband is the one that loves wings the most, but I really enjoyed this one too!\\n\\nService was great! I expected it to be more self service, but they were very involved and made sure to explain what needed to be explained, and to ask about our meal.\\n\\nI'm not doing great at explaining, so I'll let the photos speak for themselves!“
“If you love Indian street food, this is the place to be. It has various sub- shops serving dosas, manchurian, gol gappas, jalebis, paranthas, moms and meetha paan at a resonable price. I am happy that I do not live there, otherwise I would be visiting it on a daily basis.“
“Quality of Dosas and Idlis is good. However, masala was not properly cooked in Dosa and Sambhar had less salt than usual.Filter coffee and chai are good as well but can be better for sure.The dish that we liked best is Bhajji, definitely a must try for anyone new to this place.Also, the place is big enough to accommodate large groups of 6, 8, or even 10 people at once“
“Really great restaurant with an awesome variety of 100% Vegetarian Thalis. I highly recommend their Kesar Special Thali along with their Papdi Chaat Thali! They let you share plates and honestly 1 thali with saabzis would suffice 2 people, you may just have to order another separate Naan. Their special saabzi of the day was amazing, the rest of the saabzis varied from 'generic to alright'. Surprisingly, their ambiance is very upscale for a restaurant that is known for their Thalis. Highly recommend bringing the whole family and the service was super quick!“
“I'm not gonna lie. You got the best food at the restaurant and the best employees.They are so helpful and friendly. I also met this girl at the restaurant.Her name is NAYAN. She was very sweet and kind and she helped me choose the best food in the menu Keep up the good work and if you want to have the best experience in the restaurant come especially on Friday's.“

“No frills, amazing food and service at reasonable price. This is our go to place whenever we are craving for south Indian food especially dosas, uttapam, idly and vada. It's located off the Oak tree road and have a large parking lot in front of the restaurant. I recently went on Sunday afternoon and was able to grab a table right away. We ordered myysore masala, mint, gongura and Rava Dosa, filter coffee and buttermilk. Sambhar is self-serve and unlimited kept in a hotpot so it's always warm. Everything came out quickly and was really tasty and satisfying.“
“I ordered the butter chicken tacos. They were delicious, very soft tender meat and succulent sauce paired with a veggie assortment . The atmosphere is very laid back and casual. The lady who took my order was very kind and incredibly helpful in placing my order. Im a repeat customer. Definitely will be back again. If you're looking for great Indian fusion dishes this restaurant is perfect. They also have some amazing Indian and American desserts as well.Vegetarian options: They have a large vegetarian menu and they are able to customize orders to a great extent.“
“Enjoyed authentic Sri Lankan cuisine today which reminded us of the food we had on our Sri Lanka vacation beforeWe had the fish and shrimp combo platters for lunchVery reasonable price and excellent service by owner Mr. Pushpa Kumar! Would def come again“
“To be honest, I’ve ordered here time and time again. It’s CONSTANTLY delicious like omg (I’ve had the butter chicken, naan, rasmalai, samosa)? (boutta order the palak paneer and chicken kabaab) for the price of everything the quality is just perfection tbh (especially the chicken)“
“This Sri Lankan restaurant in Staten Island is truly one of the gems! The food is not just delicious, but also has that healthy twist we all appreciate. What makes the experience even more special is the amazing owner and staff. They're just incredible people who go out of their way to make you feel welcome. It's a place where the food warms your stomach, and the people warm your heart.“
“Swagath Restaurant has closed in Edison and now Kesar Restaurant has opened in the same location at 1700 oak tree road. Kesar is a 5 star restaurant with fantastic Punjabi thali. We had a fantastic lunch at Kesar and it has been open only 3 months.“
“This place is amazing and best part is BYOB. Great upscale Indian food with tremendous flavor - you'll not be disappointed. I love the service and the ambiance of this place. I been here twice and I have nothing but good things to write about this spot. Come try it because the pictures describe the food exactly. Keep up the great work.“
“We planned to visit Haveli Punjab Di for buffet on Sunday however, the variety of food was so less. Especially for vegetarians there was barely anything and ended up having A la Carte. Majority of dishes in veg and non veg were really good.I would recommend it for A la Carte.Vegetarian options: Try Bharta it was great!“
“One of the best place for Indian food especially if you are missing Indian street food in US! One of the best vadapao and Dabeli you can find here.. don't forget to try the UNLIMITED PANIPURI while you are here! Must visit place!Will definitely recommend to everyone.. must try place!“
“Love the ambience and the staff!Food is super tasty, my favorites must try recommendations has to be:Bhel puri, Dal makhani, malai kofta, pav bhaji, raj kachori and vada pav. A combo, filling, money saver and the best in area option would be Punjabi thali- which m is amazing.This is my to-go place any day. Service is great at the restaurant especially Jeetu bhai, he is always lively and Jolly.“
“This spot is very good . It was a bit busy but got a seat fast . I got the chicken tikka which had great flavor also the staff is super friendly and helpful I think every person in the restaurant came to check on despite it being busy , will definitely be coming back .“
“I ordered online a received a phone call confirming my order right away. Food was done fast and it was all delicious. It’s great having this restaurant in the neighborhood will most definitely be ordering again. Had the chicken curry, plain rice and plain naan bread and chicken “
“The food is excellent and specifically the Tokri Chat , it's so crispy and to add to our amazement, we came to know that the papdis and the tokris are all made by Sejal , the lady who will make your chaat whenever you visit Dhaba . She is a pleasant woman with equally pleasant smile . Her daughter Kajal met us at the register helped us with check ins and at checkout , for her age she had an assertive politeness and demeanor. Our server Ravi was the best part , as he apparently was covering up for his colleagues absence and seemed overwhelmed, yet he was attentive and jet speed. Any restaurant stands for its food but as a guest I believe the people who host you matter a lot more and today our experience was very entertaining ! I truly recommend the place and the people .“
“Pleasant, enjoyable dining experience! Our group was the first to arrive for dinner on a weekday. The lady at the reception was gracious with service. Food arrived quickly, and the vegetarian dishes were delicious. Tandoori Corn had a kick of spice and got better with lime juice. Spinach pakora was crispy. Sarson ka Saag and Daal Makhani were done well, too.The first impression with the interiors wasn't wow, but the food and service were on point. Extensive menu. Plenty of free parking outside. Would go again.“
