50 Best Indian Restaurants near Sunnyside

“It's good, but, since I am a Nepali and have tried their food back home, I'd say it's not the same as it was back home. But, then again, ingredients change the taste, so, I would say this place is worth trying and you never know you might love the food. :)“

“It was a wonderful experience after quite a shitty day. Elie was super helpful with her recommendations. The sea bass special was delicious (kiss the chef!). It was busy, but the service was fast and prices reasonable. We even received gulab jamun on the house in the end. We really needed that gesture, lol. Would highly recommend.“

“The gentleman that waited on our table was excellent! The food was flavorful and delicious!!“

“After eating so much (pizza etc )we needed to eat something different, spicy and booked this gem,as it as near to our hotel. It was also our 40th wedding anniversary. We are from U.K. This was amazing perfectly cooked tasty home made authentic Indian cuisine. We had mocktails ( lavender was refreshing ). The tandoori lamb chops x4 were full meat seasoned beautifully and delicious. All other sides perfect too. Now in U.K. we hate restaurant Indian puddings they are usually bought in and awful/failure. After finding out the chef is the owner and a recipient Michelin star we were convinced to stay,try and this was the first time we have had authentic home made puddings; try Kulfi with rose water & also Indian rice pudding. The whole meal was exceptional great value and we will recommend this restaurant to anyone else visiting New York. Easy to find off Times Square /Broadway. Thanks for the rendition “ congratulations “ for our 40th. You are great ! A little gem of authenticity in big New York !“

“We got the triple schewan rice and noodles mix and vegetable manchurian gravy, both were delicious! It satisfied our indo-chinese cravings!
The service was prompt and ambience is good!
The only minus is the quantity of dishes which is pretty less for the price we pay.“

“Went here on a recent trip and had a good time. The Sharabi chicken tikka and ajwaini prawns were amazing and set the expectations really high for the main course. Sadly the Butter Chicken and Aloo Gobhi kofta were quite mid. I have had better at other regular non descript spots. Also ordered the Dal Makhani which was really good. Would definitely go back for the cocktails and appetizers but would skip the main course next time around.“

“I had such a wonderful dining experience here recently. Everything we ordered arrived fresh and full of flavor. The steam rising off the hot skillet was a perfect welcome to the meal, and the lemon slice on top was a nice touch.

The rice and naan were both excellent accompaniments to the main dishes. I especially enjoyed the vibrant green peas in the curry and the beautiful texture of the topped appetizers. It is a fantastic spot to grab a great meal on Grand Street.“

“Incredible restaurant and food! Chandu had great service and overall highly recommend!“

“The staff is genuinely welcoming attentive. We ordered butter chicken which was creamy and rich with just the right kick of spice. highly recommend“

“Veerays isn't just a restaurant. It's a story.

Treat yourself to this atmospheric speakeasy space that also has magnificent food.

Sit in the red velvet booths, enjoying fresh Naan and spectacular paneer.

The drinks are lovely and so special.

The flavors and atmosphere will add to your own story.

Want something extra divine?

Go during lunch. At one point, we had private dining.

Oh what a story!“

“Great food , specially the veg curry, non veg curry and nan . We took Kadhai chicken, nizami paneer and both were excellent. House special Boneless chicken biryani and paneer biryani were average. overall great clean place, ample seating space , great service and very decent price. Will recommend to anyone looking for authentic and tasty Indian food in manhattan“

“BEST FOOD AND SERVICE!! the naan was the best naan i’ve ever had in my life, it was soooo fluffy and doughy. chicken tikka masala was a genuine 10/10 and i can’t wait to eat my leftovers. my meal had me weak in the knees after bruh. my king anuj brought us great food and delivered amazing service. he asked me after i put on my sweater if i was cold and then he turned off the ac that was going directly on my table (which was much much appreciated). i can’t wait to come back“

“Good People - Great Food - just Go! Food so Fresh!“

I am glad we came to this restaurant. We are gonna come again. My date night, ended with the best food I had in NY so far. Cheers for the restaurant, and double cheers for Amandeep“

“We’ve been a few times, Masalawala and Sons is a really good Indian restaurant. They have a lot of great dishes executed well, the butter chicken, saag paneer, and chennar dalna were all very tasty. Their bread selection is outstanding. Also, they do really nice cocktails. Everything we ate from the menu was great. My problems with Masalawala are two things. It suffers from this restaurant groups approach to customer service. We ordered, the food started coming out well before our drinks, just after we finally received our drinks, everything we ordered was on the within minutes. Then the waiter disappears. No offer of a cocktail or beer refill until we’re nearly done eating. This is not a place to enjoy a long meal or relaxed conversation. It felt like we were in a timer and they wanted us out as quickly as possible. And the restaurant is smallish with close set tables, and does a lot of delivery. If you are sitting up front, you’re likely to spend most of your meal with a delivery person standing right over your table, they are in and out constantly and makes the space feel hectic and a little stressful. Overall, I think Masalawala and Sons is a place we might order delivery since the food is quite good. But we might head elsewhere for a more relaxed, customer focused dining experience.“

“Semma in New York City is widely celebrated for its heritage-focused approach, bringing rare and authentic Southern Indian flavors to a stylish, relaxed setting.“

“When I walked in the restaurant the delicious aromas let me know I made a good choice. The food was absolutely amazing with vegan/vegetarian options and even a complimentary gluten free appetizer. The staff was welcoming and the service great. The prices were reasonable, but the best part was the delicious food!!“

“Very good food quality like the taste“

“Excellent hospitality looks like you entered your home. Food was extraordinary very yummy especially pineapple curry. Every dishes amazing and very tasty. After main course we didn’t have room to eat dessert but they offered to taste some it’s delicious. I recommended please visit excellent food and excellent service you didn’t disappoint for that. Good value of money. Definitely we will go again.“

“I had a wonderful experience at Veeray da Dhaba. The food was packed with authentic Punjabi flavors and tasted just like a home-cooked meal. The butter chicken was rich and flavorful, the biryani was perfectly seasoned, and the naan was fresh and soft. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the staff was attentive and friendly. A fantastic spot for anyone craving delicious North Indian cuisine in NYC.“

“the customer service was amazing! I’ll definitely be recommending this place to others“

“Really enjoyed my experience here. The food was delicious, flavorful, and well-balanced, with just the right amount of spice. The staff were warm and welcoming, and the service was excellent. They even kindly offered a complimentary dessert, which was a lovely touch. Overall, a great experience with tasty food and friendly service. Would definitely come back!“

“Great food, great service and value for the money. Great atmosphere“

“An absolute must-visit for anyone craving authentic Maharashtrian flavors! My best friends and I recently dined here, and it was an incredible experience from start to finish.

The standout star of the meal was undoubtedly the **Ghati chicken**—it was packed with rich, bold, fiery spices that delivered an unforgettable kick. The **chicken chili** was equally delicious, offering a savory, well-balanced flavor that complemented the spread perfectly.

If you are visiting, especially for anyone looking for true local Maharashtrian cuisine, you simply have to try their **vadapav** and **misal**. The authenticity in every dish shines through. Highly recommended for food lovers looking for a genuine culinary treat with friends!“

“Truely Homely Indian food“

“waiter was good food was too good.not expensive..like it“

“Naan was lightly buttered and crispy, perfect for accompanying the flavorful curry, highly recommended“

“It’s usually pretty quiet here when I tend to go for lunch. The service has always been great and attentive. The portions are big I can rarely finish what I order. The best part is the pricing - I typically order a main with rice & naan and a couple glasses of wine and I always feel like I’m getting a deal. Definitely recommend!“

“Butter chicken, goat doori kebab is to die for. Roomali Roti - just had it after ages. No doubt NYC has an Indian restaurant which can compete with the likes of Dum Pukht in India.“

“Delicious authentic Indian cuisine with flavours actually doing a dhamaka - explosion of flavors as you eat it. Great service. One feedback - for such a happening restaurant the restroom is quite shoddy“

“Location : Right on the corner but park king is difficult to find just as it is in NY

Food : Relishing food with wide menu of veg & nob veg and drinks ( cocktails & mocktails), well prepared and presented
Staff : Courteous and prompt service

Wheelchair accessible

Good for all age groups

“I order from here regularly. Their biryani is probably one of the best in Brooklyn arguably.“

“Siddharth took great care of us and recommended great options for our dietary restrictions. We loved the chicken seekh kebab, lychee ceviche, bhindi, and paneer razala. The paan negroni was strong and tasty. Venue is beautiful and well decorated.“

“Hidden gem for authentic South Indian food! Located in the basement of the Hindu Temple Society of North America in Flushing, NY, this cafeteria-style spot serves incredible, fresh vegetarian comfort food like crispy dosas, soft idli, and flavorful sambar at unbeatable prices. A deeply comforting and unique NYC experience!“

“What an incredible experience! We ordered the Ka-chori, chicken korma, and chicken Bhuna. 10/10 ! The flavors are rich and comforting. Our server was so sweet! I really loved the little onions they served with the Ka-chori and he was kind enough to bring me more for the entreee. Will definitely return when I’m back in the area!“

“Food was fabulous. We had a large party and tried their lamb chops, Okra, daal and bbq chicken with real charcoal flavor. Fresh tandoori roti just made everything better.show stopper was the gulab jamun créme burlee. I visit aroqa eventide I am in NYC. Their drinks are next level, taste and presentation both.“

“They have amazingly tasty food 😉 food 🥘 and specially love their buffet“

“One of the best restaurant I have ever tried in the NYC, really enjoyed the food there. We tried chicken tikka, chicken chettinad curry, naan everything, especially the chicken biryani. I had original Hyderabadi chicken biryani taste here, loved it! Also, the price was very reasonable, not much expensive. Must try if you’re traveling to NYC and want to eat Indian dishes.“

“Amazing and Awesome Food.“

“Excellent food and friendly service“

“Had dinner here with a friend and really enjoyed the meal. Saag Panner and chicken Korma were especially terrific. We ordered on appetizer that wasn’t what we expected and the owner and the chef came over and explained the dish and suggested an alternative which they gladly swapped out. Service was terrific. Personal and attentive. Definitely recommended.“

“First time visited Jersey City My goodness the food was so delicious, the server was amazing and friendly feels so much like home. Highly recommended for you guys to try.“

“The Indian food is really great! Had Saag Paneer, Butter chicken, butter rice and naan. Everything was really delicious

They also have several options to customize for spice

Tried the chicken tikka masala cheesesteak and didn’t think the the flavors went well together. But would recommend this place for the Indian food

The service is very great, waiters are attentive, friendly and greet you warmly when you come in“

“Between the confusing menu and the long time that I waited for my roll, I was ready to write this place off, but the food is delicious. I had the ghost chicken roll and it's more flavorful than spicy. They could add more sides to the menu - something with a vegetable in it, so that I can make it a full meal. Otherwise, it's a bit pricey for a product that seems like it's in the snack category.

Really good though, I'd come back.“
