“Rudra Indian Bistro on Cedar Lane is authentic as it gets. We have been here so many times and will always keep coming back because the food is high quality, healthy, and very delicious. We always start with the House Salad which is a great way to begin your meal. The Tandoori chicken is so juicy and succulent, and the Lamb Korma is one of our favorites. I highly recommend Rudra Indian Bistro! One of the best restaurants of Teaneck...“

“This was an amazing find on Main Street in Hackensack. The food was delicious and their pioneer Indian cuisine in a quick eat restaurant model. Loved their wraps, Naans and bowls. Would definitely recommend and will come back for more 🤩

Modern cozy ambience too to hangout with friends & family.“

“The Respectable Woman walked the food out the door to our vehicle. The food was a benediction to my soul. It brought my will in tune with deific will. I could tell by the staff they uphold the integrity of taste. Also, the atmosphere & decor demonstrated both Spiritual and Terrestrial consciousness. If any of my Moorish family sees this comment and need to know if they shouldl eat here ISLAM FAMILY. Eat here and you will not be disappointed, as they keep in line with necessity (hear me talkin?). 5 on the right. Peace.“

“I've tried the lunch buffet on weekday/weekend and really enjoyed it. I like all the selections and appreciate that the spice level is mild on most dishes. They serve the best Garlic Naan! Decent atmosphere and friendly staff. Have recommended to friends and co-workers since its near my job!“

“First timer since i just moved to Palisades park couple month ago. I got to know the chef and owner by name, the first day i came in. Very nice people, atmosphere and mostly, Food! chicken is seasoned just right, def has southern kick. Love it. Highly recommended.“

“I ordered mild. MILD. And yet my taste buds were personally visited by the ghost of every spice in existence. Was it spicy? A little. Did I care? Absolutely not, because the lamb biryani was so good I had to sit quietly for a moment and reflect on my life choices.

The butter chicken was silky, rich, and deeply unfair to every other butter chicken I’ve ever had. The garlic naan showed up like it had something to prove — and it did. I ate way too many pieces and I would do it again without hesitation.

The mango lassi was the cooldown I didn’t deserve but desperately needed.

Upahar, you have ruined me for other restaurants. 10/10, sending everyone I know.“

“I just took my friend to Downtown Dhaba for her birthday lunch. We both agree the food was wonderful. And we both had leftovers to have later. Service was very attentive, but not overbearing. My first time here, but I will be back.“

“We popped in last night without a booking, before our movie viewing. The staff were so accomodating and friendly! The restaurant is candle lit and cozy, with quiet, ambient music. I often struggle with sound levels in busy restaurants, but I found the lighting and the sound level were really really pleasant. We ordered, and our starter was in front of us really quickly.

The food was delicious. Complex and rich flavours. Chicken tikka BBQ was so juicy and fresh. The lamb pasanda was the star of the show, even the gravy was mouth watering. The daal, in comparison, was a little bland, we might try a different vegetarian curry next time. The naan are HUGE, fluffy and authentic. Definitely share one between two. The challenge of the lassi was not drinking it in one go, it was so yummy.“

“My favorite Indian food in the area. So delicious, with amazing service!“

“I just ordered the Lamb Biryani and it was phenomenal!!!!! The lamb was super tender and the rice very aromatic, and spicy as I asked for it be. The restaurant was very clean, always a good thing, and the people were super helpful and polite. I will definitely be back! Thank you for a fantastic experience!“

“Just found it on the way to our hotel when we stop at dominoes pizza ,so I just enter the restaurant and order burns road chutney paratha roll and mayo garlic roll and falooda for me and my husband. And don’t regret at all . Amazing food. And having authentic falooda after so long. I must say falooda was actually the hit better than Toronto. (We are visiting newyork from toronto.) very near by to our uncle’s home. So we will definitely stop by next visit to newyork for falooda for sure.“

“The vegetable platter was delicious, we ordered four different curries, two vegetarian and two regular ones. The mixed vegetable curry was okay, the string bean flavor was too prominent. The baingan bharta, chicken curry, and mango curry chicken was pretty good, but be warned the spicy is quite spicy. We also order mango juice and lassi, which were both very refreshing.

Vegetarian options: There is an entire section on the menu for vegetarian“

“I love this place, food is so good, I like seekh kabab, my wife she likes Pakoda kadhi, their aloo paratha, goat karahi, chicken karahi is so good, what i like is that they make fresh kabab as you order, not pre cooked kababs. and those two girls working there I don't know their names are so efficient, always smiling and very attentive. Thank you guys for being awesome.“

“Best mix platers in town“

“We loved having Star Restaurant provide the catering for a recent Indian wedding here at Riverview Ballroom in Cliffside Park. Their team was highly professional to work with behind the scenes, and they served very good, authentic dishes that the guests thoroughly enjoyed. We always appreciate reliable vendors who help make our couples' celebrations a great success!“

“Everything was amazing! Some of the best Indian food I’ve ever had. Dosa was perfect and the filling was amazing. Vegetable pakoras were fresh and fried perfectly. Chicken tikka masala was unbeatable, the chicken was done perfectly as well. 12/10.“

“Food: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Food is excellent. Reminds me of Bangladesh town in the Bronx. Vegetable samosa (singhara) needs some salt. Chicken patty (puff) needs more filling (hardly 2 small pieces of chicken in them. Chicken biryani was delicious. Tandoori chicken was good as well. None of them were served with condiments (sad). The best of all is the Chai, it was spot on.

Service: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Upon arrival the cashier didn't greet or welcome, however, the server was welcoming. The server was able to speak in English and Hindi which was nice. He was patient and answered all the questions. On purpose I asked the server to pack different things randomly to see his service and he was impeccable. Good customer service.

Atmosphere: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
The restaurant is in a sketchy area, not the best of places, however, the restaurant/bakery captured the essence of the area and brought beauty to it. The ambience is very south Asian and reads the area well. Music and clearly labeled menu items with prices would help.“

“Loved the food here! We got takeout for a cozy Valentine’s dinner at home and it was delicious!!! The goat and chicken biryani were great portions and so flavorful without being overly spicy; the samosas were crisp and the aloo tikki (which I’ve never had before) were incredible!! The garlic naan was a bit pricy but also thicker and larger than any I’ve had in any other South Asian restaurant. Cant wait to come back here for more!!“
