“We had an event catered out of state and can’t say how wonderful and professional Abhi and his team were. Not only was the food great and spot on but the service, smiles and positive vibes from his entire staff was amazing. The event was seamless thanks in large part b/c absolutely no hassles from the caterer. The appetizers were fantastic especially the Raj Kachori which was a hit! Dessert was also unique with outstanding mithai which I have not seen elsewhere.
We would cater again from Abhi and his team“

“One of best street food I ever had. Owner was very friendly and nice too us. I asked the owner what dish is popular and well known and he said bhakri pizza and indo Chinese. So we got bhakri pizza, Dahi Puri, peri peri fries and chilli paneer. Everything was fantastic and my personal favorite was the peri peri fries. We ended our meal with milkshake and it was so yummy. The owner was very nice to us and he made sure we were doin great. I highly recommend this place if u are missing choice in India.

“It’s one of the hidden secrets of this town . Quality homemade Indian food for folks who just want the authentic experience of Gujrati cuisine. Would also recommend their Dosas. It’s freshly made and the masala is delicious!!!!!

Ask for their Gujrati menu for one of the best potato curries I had in NJ !!!“

“Service was excellent, really enjoyed the food.“

“I have been here more than 10 times now, and this place never fails to impress! The portions are generous, and the flavors are always spot on. My favorites remain the Talapakattu Biryani and all ghee items (paneer ghee roast, chicken ghee roast,shrimp Ghee roast, Mutton Ghee roast) but honestly, all their curries are packed with vibrant, bold flavors.

A fantastic destination for anyone craving flavorful, spicy food with hearty portions. The place is mostly bustling with takeaway orders, especially on Fridays and weekends. The Boneless chicken Fry Biryani is a highlight of this place, featuring a perfect blend of spices and tender meat, making it a delightful treat.last but not least butter milk is so good.Excellent customer service.

This spot has truly become a go-to for me, and I'll keep coming back to explore more dishes. If you love spice, this is the place for you!“
