“My family wanted indian after apple picking and we couldn’t find a place until I looked up Indian and found them. It said 5 stars and the ratings were not wrong. This restaurant was absolutely amazing. The food was excellent and there were so many choices. All of the food was worth it. I’ve been to many Indian restaurants and this place is in my top 3. The owner is such an amazing, hardworking, and sweet woman. She told us her story about for 20 years she’s wanted to have a restaurant yet she took the time to support and take care of her kids. It was heartwarming. She also told us a story of a father and a daughter who were starving and came to the door after close hoping they didn’t close yet. The chefs left, but she didn’t want them hungry. She still let them in and she cooked dinner for them and didn’t let them pay. It was for free. She expresses how being able to give food is a blessing and the biggest reward is being able to give food for people in need and feeding the people. She deserves this restaurant. Not only is she an amazing woman, but the bigger plus is the food is absolutely amazing. The naan, aloo papri chaat, chicken tikka masala, lamb rogan josh, lamb tikka masala, paneer tikka masala. All of it was amazing and so flavorful. For the spice levels my brother and I got medium and my parents got medium plus and the spice levels were perfect.”

“I’ve been about 5 times so far and LOVE Emelio’s! The food is fresh and delicious and the portions generous. Even their simple side salad is something special - delicious, light dressing. And the service is great, which is hard to come by these days. It’s clearly a family-run place where Everyone cares about the quality. Also impeccably clean!”

“Great food comida con mucho sabor 🥘”

“During a short weekend visit to Atlantic Highlands, I had a great conversation with Steven (I am pretty sure that was his name). In our chat I really had a sense for his love of coffee and his passion for the technical and analytical aspects of craft roasting and pulling truly dialed in espresso shots. We picked up a bag of Dominican Republic medium roast. I really look forward to the shots from this coffee. Thanks again for the great shot, bag of DR and great conversation...and enjoy your bike rides!”

“What an absolute delight and surprise! Chef Salil personally brought the day's special dish for us to try. Remarkable and memorable. Explained the menu to perfection. The food so fresh and made daily in their kitchen. We will be going back often.”
