“Took my Rutgers student to dinner tonight as a midweek treat. Had a delicious dinner! He was craving butter chicken, and I enjoyed the kadai chicken. Both dishes were beautifully seasoned, the chicken was very moist, and the portions were just right. We finished with gulab jamun, a perfect ending. Will definitely be back! Service was great, very casual atmosphere, not fancy but worth a visit! Sadly, they were out of many of the specialty drinks because of a delivery issue, but it did not make our meal less enjoyable.“

What stood out the most was the service. We were served by a female staff member she was extremely welcoming from the moment we arrived. She was attentive, approachable. Her friendly attitude made our visit even more enjoyable.

“Very few restaurants truly capture the essence of Indian street food — the bold flavors, the nostalgia and this is definitely one of them. The selection is refreshing and impressively vast, covering all the classics you crave.

I especially loved their Bedmi Poori, crisp, flavorful, and paired beautifully with the sabzi. Everything we tried was good, but the street food items truly stood out. The flavors are authentic, well-balanced just the way they should be.“

“better than last always great place to chilling“

“Service was excellent, really enjoyed the food.“

“Nice and cozy place with a welcoming, homey vibe. Staff and waitress were super friendly and cheerful. Tables could’ve been a bit cleaner, but overall a good atmosphere. We tried the Peri Peri Vada Pav — vadas were great, but the pav and chutney could be better. Bhel was fresh and tasty. We even ordered Chinese Bhel, which had nice bits of Manchurian and paneer — the Manchurian pieces were a bit stiff, but overall it tasted good. We ordered Chole Kulcha but got Chole Naan instead, which was unexpected. Food overall is better than the competition, and definitely a place worth visiting!“

Highly recommended!“

“For many of us longing for that traditional wedding feast served on a banana leaf, a visit to The Park Indian Restaurant is a must. The feast is served just like weddings back home with so many veg and non-veg dishes and most importantly with such warm hospitality that one feels like part of the family. It would be an injustice to pick a top dish because each one is a star in its category. Unlimited food at such an affordable price! We will be returning every time this fabulous feast is offered.“

“Authentic and delicious food for Indian food lovers. Great service and very humble staff. Very competitive prices as compared to other Indian restaurants with better service and food. We enjoyed it a lot.“

“Best, most authentic Misal Pav and Kanda Bhaji! brought back memories of me growing up in Bombay. today was the perfect day for something like this and to walk down memory lane! The muggy cloudy rainy days only mean garmagarm Kanda Bhaji Garmagarm Chai! thank You thank You thank You!“

“Good and best quality Indian Food“

“First time in 30 plus years, I ordered in Onasadya from Aroma in Warren….it was amazing! The curries tasted exceptional and the payasams were yum yummy! We loved it! Thank you Sheelachechi for making it happen even though my request was completely last minute….thank you Sreekumar and the entire Aroma restaurant team, you guys were awesome. Thank you 🙏🏻“

“This is a nice restaurant. Their Chana are out of the world. We did catering with them twice. Our guests keep asking where we got Chana from.. it’s a real authentic Punjabi style Indian restaurant.

Only thing they can improve on to offer more types of Indian rotis other than Naan.. like lacha paratha or tandoori roti. I had to cater my poori/ breads from the different restaurant.“

“The Bharta was amazing. We loved the ambience and everything we ordered. Chintan was great at serving and also accommodated our special requests in food. Would definitely recommend this place.“

“Indo-Chinese food is delicious. Very clean place and nice service. Worth it. Definitely will come next time..“

“Horrible food and catering. Avoid the Cafe Nicole at Holiday Inn as well as Shimla Catering.“

“I ordered the Chicken Chettinadu, veg momo, and veg lunch combo — all were absolutely delicious! The Chicken Chettinadu had the perfect balance of spice and savory, and the veg momo were fresh, flavorful, and filled with a nice variety of vegetables. The veg lunch combo was satisfying and well-portioned, and the kheer dessert was fresh and mildly sweet — a perfect way to end the meal. Everything was packaged neatly and arrived warm. Highly recommend for anyone looking for flavorful, well-prepared Indian cuisine. I’ll definitely be ordering again!“

“Food and service was really great. Quality of food was great too ... had a great time .. Parul and other staff helped us ordering food to their best special dishes as we were new to this restaurant. Their all dishes were that we order were mouth watering. Cant say which was good or best or bestest. For us it was all bestest. Cherry on the top Anjeer walnut halwa that we never had it. But they say try it and if we dont like it they will not charge but it was so delicious we ordered for take out👍👌🙏“

“Not a huge fan of spicy food because my stomach doesn't handle it too well but I must say that the food is good. I got a butter chicken bowl with rice and veggies and it had a tiny kick to it. It was delicious and I handled the spice just fine. Also like the vibe of the place and the friendly service.“

“We are lucky to have a Banquet hall like Rasoi in the town. It is perfect to have a small or big party. We recently had our Diwali get-together at Rasoi. The Food and service were top-class. The manager Prasad Kadam ensures all goes well and all guests are happy. The staff members are very warmth and welcoming. Once this place is renovated in the coming months, it will have a brand-new Banquet hall to host the parties. I hope Chefs will introduce and add new food dishes to the catering menu.“

“Love the authentic south Indian telugu tiffin dishes you get here , it is exactly like eating at any good breakfast restaurant in Andhra or Telangana ,the same local flavor ,it is one of the very few restaurants here which retains the local flavors, highly recommended.“

“Definitely recommend This restaurant food is so delicious everything taste fresh.👍“

“Thanjai Mess in New Jersey is a real gem if you’re into authentic South Indian food. The place keeps things simple — no fancy setup, just delicious, homestyle meals that taste straight out of Tamil Nadu. The food is fresh, flavorful, and super satisfying. The dosas are crisp and golden, the idlis are soft and fluffy, and the sambar hits that perfect tangy note. It feels like you’re eating in someone’s home kitchen rather than a restaurant.

Portions are generous and prices are really fair for the quality you get. The thali meals are a must-try — great variety, with enough spice and comfort to keep you coming back. Service is friendly and quick, and even when it’s busy, the staff handle everything with a smile. Parking is easy and the vibe stays casual, which makes it great for both quick lunch stops and weekend family meals. Thanjai Mess is easily one of my favorite spots for a true South Indian fix in NJ.“

“Dosa Grill has hands down the best Indian food in the Syracuse area. As soon as you enter, you begin enjoying the rich aromas and friendly atmosphere. All their dishes are perfectly seasoned and carefully prepared. The buffet is extensive, with many of my favorites. We have been return customers there since it opened and I can honestly say it contributes to our quality of life.“

“We love Delhi Garden! Best Indian food we’ve had out of many many different places and great service too. Apparently our 13 month old approves as well! 😜 Highly recommend!“

“Rude owner and worse customer service! When we are with big group there is food quality change. Not giving onion or chutney. Poor service.“

“Their prices are reasonable and we love to order takeout from here. The food is delicious. I wish they would start dine-in again. We used to have so much fun dining there. Their customer service is awesome and the owner is very kind-hearted.“

“Best and affordable vegan restaurant downtown.“

“Great place for good food“

“It's my 1st time @ an Indian restaurant like this 1. The service is great and friendly. Also, the food is so delicious. Especially the Alu Samosa and the Mango Lassi because they're officially my favorite stuff.“

“An absolutely delightful dining experience! From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was warm and inviting. The food was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor, and the service was attentive without being intrusive. Every detail was thoughtfully curated. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a memorable meal.“

“I ate here a few years ago - don't recall my whole meal but i remember it was good - love mint chuntey. The manager / staff was friendly. The space is small but organized and clean. Recently i ordered through uber eats - they had a buy one get one free promo on the chicken tikka. I also got a few orders of garlic naan. The chicken tikka with rice was good - moist chicken, good flavor and not too spicy. However the garlic naan was disappointing - it was a tad bit salty but mostly the bread was flat and dense - it should be a little more fluffy with a nice chew. Hope they read this and improve it - would give it another try.“

““I recently catered from Persis Biryani (Piscataway)for a special event, and I am beyond impressed! From the moment I contacted them Prasad, Ashok and Shekar, their team was professional, responsive, and attentive to my needs. The menu options were diverse and customizable, and they helped me create the perfect spread for our guests. On the day of the event, the food was not only beautifully presented but also absolutely delicious. Every dish was bursting with flavor and made with fresh ingredients. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about how amazing the food was! I highly recommend Persis Biryani (Piscataway) for any event — they truly went above and beyond to make our occasion memorable. I have catered with them for several occasions and will definitely be using their services again for future events! Thanks Persis !!! Randall“

“Must try Raj Gari Bhojanam and wednesday buffet“

“Menu Taste Service Ambiance Nice Gesture Love ❤️“

“They have amazing biryanis and authentic flavors. Good selection of vegetarian menu. Chicken 65, Apolo fish and tandoori grill are my favourite dishes in their menu. They take catering orders for small and big events too. Whatever the occasion they serve you with warmth and comfort food. The best Indian food in this Dayton New Jersey area.“

“Best authentic food in the area! We got lucky today with the traditional serving style and it was a great surprise !! Perfect traditional Preparation 🙏🏻“
