“Best kathiyavadi thaali. I dont think I’ve had a better kathiyavadi thaali before. This is my go to spot for some really good kathiyavadi vegetarian food. Unlimited refills and the garlic chutny on the side is so so good. They also replace bajara no rotlo with rotli if you ask them. Bengan bharthu and sev tomato is my all time favorite!! There are some places you have to go every so often, and for me this is it!! If you like kathiyavadi food, you must go here!! Service is A+“
“We had a good time. Service was good very courteous. The bangara baingan was delicious. This was our first visit to the restaurant. They were very accommodating and adjusted the spice level to our needs. Nidhi Saini was on top of everything from service to food.“
“This is the place if you are looking for South Indian food!!

“Last weekend I visited this restaurant and I must say it's a great place that offers delicious South Indian food. I stopped by for breakfast and really impressed by the quality of food and service was even better. The menu had a great variety, and being a core South Indian cuisine fan I found the food very delicious. The feast: Medhu vadai (Serves with sambhar and 2 chutney)- 10/10 Ghee Podi Idli - 9/10 Onion Rava Dosai - 8/10 Mysore Masala dosa - 9/10 (was told to make extra spicy and it was prepared exactly as specified) Rasam - 10/10 (This was super hit. I craved for a good rasam in the US and the search ends here) Overall - 10/10 If you are looking for a place with reliable good food (specially South Indian) and a nice ambience, I highly recommend A2B. P.s: It is almost full always hence plan your visit accordingly. They also have a ample parking space for the convenience.“
“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).“
“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 “
“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. I will go there again. The other gentleman was knowledgeable and accommodating. It was a truly great pleasure being served at Vasanth Bhavan.Vegetarian options: Curry rices were nice“
“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. The interiors are also really good.Chaas- 5/5( loved it )Vada pav-4/5( felt like the vada was refried but taste was good)Rava fried prawns- 4/5( prawns felts a little undercooked for my taste)Tandoori promfret - 5/5( fish was juicy and good)Jeera rice-5/5Garlic rice-5/5Dal kanda- 3/5(was spicy for me and as well the garam masala taste was overpowering)Chicken xacuti- 4/5( chicken felt little undercooked otherwise was close to a xacuti curry)“
“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.“
“Wanted to try a local Indian place and this place came up in my search. I got the butter chicken with basmati rice and paratha. I am so happy I gave this restaurant a go! Food was excellent! Butter chicken was so flavorful. I was nervous it would be too spicy for me bc I don’t like too too spicy but this was just the right amount of kick for me. I can’t wait to order from them again! The rice and paratha were delicious too! Thank you so much!!“
“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.“
“I decided to go out for Indian and picked this place. The food is absolutely INCREDIBLE. We started with a few appetizers. Chicken samosas, vegetable spring rolls and paneer pakoda . They were excellent! Everything came out hot and fresh! For our entrees we desired to go with goat Tikka marsala, butter chicken marsala and chicken jalfrezi. The goat was tender and succulent. The butter chicken was delicious and creamy. We paired that with garlic naan and roti. It also comes with rice. The rice was soft and fluffy absolutely delicious just on its own! The waiter was super friendly and helpful, even suggesting items we might like to try in the future. Don't forget to treat yourself to a Mango lasssi! I will absolutely be back. If you are looking for an intimate local restaurant for top notch Indian cuisine! I highly recommend you try this place for yourself!“
“I am here on a weekly basis for the most part and I have never been disappointed. I would highly recommend this restaurant. The staff is always super helpful and friendly. I can’t find a lighter to light the candle, but thank you so much for the birthday brownie. You guys are awesome.“
“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.“
“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.“
“Lets Start Here..... The website has an issue, The menu has the wrong days they are open, and the prices are different. But those are small things and I would just suggest giving them a call to make sure they are open. Ambiance of his place is what you would expect. You are not going there for a 5 star luxury experience. This is a local family owned Indian spot with great food. It is very clean but it is not going to be on the cover of Restaurant Interiors anytime soon. Service was great. The gentleman apologized for the information being incorrect, was very polite and my food was ready on time. Now the Food. As my cohorts opened their containers every dish looked correct. Not too creamy, just enough Ghee floating on top. The consistency of each meal was what you would expect. Flavor was excellent, rice was fresh, we couldn't have asked for anything more. This will become our new Indian lunch spot moving forward.“
“I just love their food! They really set a great atmosphere as they serve us with great food and great hospitality. Some of my favorite dishes are Hakka Noodles, Momos, Lamb Chop, Salmon Tikka, Masala Fries, Paneer Tikka Sizzler, Kesar Pista Kulfi, and Gajjar Halwa.“
“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!“
“The food is really good, well portioned, and fairly priced.I ordered:1. Vegetable Samosas.They are very large in size, but they are very tasty and served with mint chutney. The chutney is fresh w/ a hint of spice.2. Lamb Gyro.Very tender and flavorful. I would definitely order again.3. Vegetable Kachalou.The potato filling is delicious. My complaints are that the outer part of the deep fried shell was a bit overcooked and that it is deep fried.4. Falafel, although deep fried, is light and fresh. Has a very nice flavor.Pros:1. They have no problem giving you extra sauces on the side, and they are delicious.2. Good portions and fair prices.3. Nice selection of desserts4. I am looking forward to trying more of their food.“
“Masala Bay is a fast casual dining offering a blend of Indian and Middle Eastern-inspired bowls and burritos (wrapped in naan bread). Its unique naan variations paired with spicy spreads create an intriguing experience.Vegetarian options: Has a whole bunch of Naan Options, Falafel and Samosa chaat“
“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.“
“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“
“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!“
“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 for indian food Good veg & non veg options great sea food the food tasted amazing good flavor for all the dishes ordered. They are able to provide the spice level as you desire for all the dishes .The service was good and price are reasonable. Decent ambience & great food variety .overall a nice place to visit with family & friends .“
“Great place for Desi food. You get your order pretty quickly and everything tastes great. The selection of mithai (sweets) is also quite expansive and they are amazing, especially the Goolab Jaman. Get it with some chai, it hits the spot. I do think they could improve the interior of the restaurant though as I felt the lighting was a bit raggedy/dull and the floors looked dirty and needed some cleaning.“
“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.“
“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.“
“House of Biryani and Kebabs serves authentic flavors with a modern twist. Each dish bursts with aromatic spices, and the kebabs are tender and flavorful. A definite go-to for anyone craving delicious Indian cuisine! Ambience is not so great.“
“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!“
“Amazing sumptuous South Indian dishes. We were 2 families here for dinner and this is one of the best in the recent exploration of chettinad flavors. Vinesh helped us get the right level of Xtra spice and courteous in enquiring anything that could be improved. Overall great choice for an evening meal. I hear their weekend banana leaf meals is one to look forward to. Will come back sometime.“
“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“
“The food here was exceptionally yummy. I've recently been hesitant about ordering fish due to consistent disappointments elsewhere, but this place surpassed my expectations. Their flavor profile took me right back to the Goan style dishes I once loved. Definitely a must-visit restaurant!“
“The food was very fresh and tasty! Good portion sizes too. I got the chicken tikka with butter sauce platter and it was amazing a little spicy but just enough to be flavorful. I also tried the dessert item they offered and it was my favorite part it was still warm when they brought it out.“
“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!“
“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.“
“Chopsticks never disappoints. The food amazing and the closest to the Indo Chinese taste we were used to India. The owners are very friendly and accommodating and prices are competitive. What more could you ask for?!!Chilli Chicken is my favorite and highly recommended.“
“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.“
“We were craving Indian food and googled restaurants near us. We were NOT disappointed when stumbled upon this little gem. We were treated so Nicely and the food was amazing! We will absolutely come back. Please go… support this restaurant. It was very quiet for them the night we were there. They deserve to be busier. Such nice people and such great food!(They even brought out complimentary cold appetizer and dessert) above and beyond ❤️ support local small businesses“

“Place bit away from the temple building but within the same complex. There is separate parking lot with covered parking. Prices are nominal ($5 each for any food). We had pongal, dosa, vada, coffee, tamarind rice, etc., We moderately liked the food we ordered, specially the coconut chutney was very good. Service was fast, staffs are friendly, clean area, restrooms are clean/well maintained. One thing i find issue here is they don't display the price, but mostly all food are $5 except tea/coffee $2. Food served here is VEGAN (so don't expect ghee, milk based food ingredients). For coffee/tea they use oatmilk(personally i did not liked it). But all in all good price at nominal price.“
“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)“
“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.“
“Something about living abroad but still having the motherland feeling when I step into Nirvanis. The food here is spectacular and the vibes are super immaculate. With fast service and the cleanliness of the restaurant. My cravings for Nirvanis increase day by day. I would highly suggest to eat here and to try their malai kofta and their chicken Hakka noodles. Which are items to die for!!!!“

“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!“
“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 .“
“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.
