“If you’re from Maharashtra and are tired of substandard pav bhaji and vada pav at every Indian restaurant, then behold - this is the greatest pav bhaji you’ll find in the state.First up - they have the pav that is the closest to what you can get in Maharashtra. Soft and flatter - none of the buffed up nonsense being served up everywhere else.The bhaji itself is excellent and buttery.I’m going to have dreams about this dinner!Highly recommend trying out the gulab jamun as well. It’s made fresh and served hot! Excellent food and thoroughly enjoyed.“

“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“

The food and service were both exceptional. I would highly recommend the restaurant. Will definitely come back and bring the kids.“

“I really like Kebab and Kurries, the food is authentic and great, and service is warm and friendly. I particularly like their mixed chicken tandoor platter, the sarson ka saag, and the goat curry (punjabi style).During the last visit also had a nice chat with the chef, Anwar, who does an amazing job with his team in making authentic indian dishes.“

“Honestly didn't know what to expect before arriving since I'm not too familiar with Indian food in general and it was just a random spot we chose to eat before flying back home.We ended up getting the lamb chop, goat curry and chicken tikka masala and I was really impressed with the food. My favorite was the goat curry actually. The flavor is reminiscing of a goat dish my family would make sometime as well which was a pleasant surprised.It was strange though to see the place basically empty on a Friday lunch even though it's already a small restaurant but I would definitely recommend this place and I'd come back again if I get the chance.“

“Very nice upscale restaurant. Food was very good, bursting with flavors!Paneer Fusion Tacos: Highlight of the food we ordered. Out of this world tacos. These were a perfect fusion of cuisines. Highly recommend.Pahadi Paneer: On the pricey side, but best tandoori paneer I have had from any restaurant. Very good texture, many vegetables included.Veg Momos- Tandoori flavored: Very nice fusion. Delicious flavor, excellent crunchy AND chewy texture.Spicy veggie pizza: Very good flavor, but a bit too much cheese. Baked perfectly.Guava Delight: Very nice mocktail, lots of interesting flavors.Vegetarian options: Clearly labeled vegetarian sections and tabs.“

“Recently we (me and my husband) were visiting Morristown for work and it was our 10th Wedding Anniversary. We decided to make it special by trying out Indian and Indo-Chinese Buffet at Spice Route. We were warmly welcomed by the host and really loved their hospitality. The choice of appetizers was amazing. Indo chinese did not disappoint. Only suggestion I can provide is to increase number of vegetarian items a bit. Overall our experience was great and would certainly recommend it to someone who needs a change and skip cooking over a weekend.“

“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. She is very nice and helpful with recommendations. All said with a very sweet smile and the most welcoming feeling.Vegetarian options: There’s plenty of really good vegetarian choices. The chap is a must if you never had it.“

“I always saw this restaurant walking or driving by and always wanted to go in For apps we got the jalapeno samosa and they were amazing. We also tried the cauliflower bites and this spinach chaat which were amazing. We also got the achari chicken as an app and with the chutneys it was probably the best thing on the menu. For main course we got a butter chicken and a paneer tikka masala and were solid options. Service was good. Everyone was attentive. Kinda small place but loved the decor and the mural on the wall.“

“We love this woman owned, Pakistani /Indian restaurant that recently opened. Food is typical street food. Kathi rolls, chaat. Yumm! Clientele is diverse, service is excellent. We love that you will see the owner herself there all the time. That makes a huge difference. Can’t wait to go again!“

“I can only have Indian food once in a while for stomach issues but I love it! Part of getting older lol. This place is my go to. We drive out of our way as we don't live in the area anymore. The owners are nice, the food is always fresh and amazing, they catered a work event for me as well, just wonderful. I'm a clean freak so it's very clean. I don't really care about ambiance personally, as long as the food is good, but the place is very aesthetically pleasing not just for a date, but to be causal and bring the family as well. If you're in the mood for Indian, I highly recommend! Like I said I don't even live close and drive past 2 other Indian places to come here.“

“I have been here a few times now and everyone is so friendly and helpful. The food here is soooo good!The butter chicken, garlic naan, lamb roganjosh (I have ordered a lot from here and they all are great!)Will definitely always be coming back! ?Thanks for your great service and great food!“

“I’m a chef in Italian, American, Cuban and German Cuisines. I’m also a first timer to try Chand Palace. I found the staff to be on point in both service and explaining the various dishes on the buffet. The food was varied enough that I feel most would enjoy several of the offerings. There was a balance of savory, spicy and sweet offerings. Everything was fresh! The bread out of this world. Naan was brought to the table with an endless amount of chai tea. We were here for lunch. It was a value for the quality of food, service and attention to detail. I’ll return.“

“food is delicious, i try to order here everytime i crave it…. But DAMN .. i never knew an order for one person under 25 dollars would take more than an hour at most almost two hours …It’s everytime i order too!! especially when i live right down the street! Literally one block away. I can’t drive , so i do doordash ..i don’t blame doordash but jeez .. theyre either slacking or really making it fresh on the spot. Either way i shouldnt be waiting an hour and a half EVERYTIME i order from here when i live 2 mins away drive. Delicious but not the best service when i eat there either .. still good though.Vegetarian options: im vegetarian. has a lot of options“

“Visited this place in Jan 2024 on a Sat evening, was very shocked at the decline in food quality,- Had visited restaurant in Dec 2023 - and food was excellent!Not sure why quality of cooking declined so fast -- it had consistently been one of the best Indian restaurants in the area for year, in the past.“

“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.

“I’ve been going here for at least 10 years. The food and service are always great. If going for the buffet, getting there earlier is best. They shut the buffet down at 2:30 so don’t arrive at 2 expecting staff to still be replenishing at that time. I’ve never had an issue or complaint.“

“I’m a little confused why the rating is not higher, because i’m happy to report that we’ve tried different dishes about 3-4 times now, and each time was pretty good!So far we’ve eaten lamb dishes and paneer dishes. All have been delicious. The only thing is that the person who answers the calls doesn’t know the differences of taste in each curry.“
