We loved the food here! We got an assortment of takeout: goat curry, fried chicken mom, naan. The lamb shishkebab was my favorite. I recommend calling to confirm your order- we ordered online and they lost the order, but made up for it by preparing the food quickly and throwing in some samosas. Overall great option for Nepalese and Indian fare in central NJ! read more

Delivery Order - This is from a GrubHub order on 8/23, and overall experience was not good. Definitely not one of the many authentic Indian Restaurants in NJ. Order was after the recent name change to Aganja Kitchen Chicken Biryani barely had any salt, not sure whether they forgot to add or it was too little since rice did not have any salt but chicken had some salt. Even after adding salt, overall flavor was not great. Mutton Masala tasted fine but the meat was tough and chewy, so I ended up just using the masala and throwing out the meat. Samosas were pretty good. read more

Providing an updated review since the business changed their name from Clove Garden to Aganja kitchen. I had the tamarind eggplant again which I really enjoyed- though I will say the eggplant is truly crispy if you eat in- but if you take out then it will get soggy and lose the crisp (understandable given the sauces). Definitely a dish you should eat in to get the crispness that is so good and chip like. I tried the palak kofta (spinach and paneer balls) and a chickpea dish- both were tasty though my friend though there was too much oil on the chickpea dish. They also made the mild- mild enough for me. Don't skip the rasmalai for dessert! read more

Picked up takeout tonight from what used to be called Clove Garden, now renamed Aganja Kitchen. The food was just awful, nothing like the Clove Garden mentioned in the reviews. Must be new ownership/management/chef. I have travelled to India many times, eaten Indian in London and here in the NYC area and this doesn't resemble Indian food in the least. I will stick with Red Pepper in Scotch Plains and suggest others do the same read more

Ordered lunch special of Chicken Tika Masala ( I know very boring of me!) but everything was so delicious! The chicken! The chutney and the naan were yum! The restaurant is take out only which is really unfortunate but I do wish they would make the space more attractive. It's basically a curtain and for the area it doesn't fit. Parking is across the street or along North Ave. If I had one thing that shocked me was the price, for a lunch special it was very expensive. I guess I'm used to the prices in nearby towns with large Indian populations like Iselin or Edison. At this restaurant, I paid over $35 for two lunch specials. Restaurants in the area usually charge $10-12 for a lunch special and that even comes with a canned soda. There is so much variety of food in this area I think the price would dissuade someone from here. I know it's another cuisine but still $35+ for 2 lunch specials is a lot. If that's a lunch special I can't imagine regular price. I would come here again, absolutely. Food was delicious and the lady was very nice! For a treat, though not on a regular basis. I just wouldn't make this a regular spot it's not in the budget. read more

Heading through Wakefield you could easily miss this gem on busy Old Tower Hill Rd. Don't let the small exterior stop you from trying the big flavors that await you inside. I hadn't even heard of Clove Garden until a friend suggested we meet there for dinner and I am so we did!! The staff took excellent care of us ensuring that we ordered the spice level we preferred and happily answered questions. The lamb spinach and chicken tikka dishes were perfection, tender and flavorful and accompanied by a delicious garlic naan. Clove Garden is an easy drive from URI, and from any destination via Rt 1 it's a quick trip. Be sure to give them a try, you will be so glad you did!! Looking forward to another amazing meal at Clove Garden! read more

Then the Spring Rolls were a pleasant recovery from that, nice sized, several with the order, and tasted good. The Chicken Pakora (battered fried chicken nuggets) was middle of the road, not too crispy, but the chicken was tender and enjoyable with the spicy dipping sauce. The Onion Kulcha (soft flatbread with onions, herbs and spices in it) was not bad, and went well with the main dish, which was Chicken Nargisi. This is chicken chunks in a spicy coconut milk sauce which was very good. This came with a very generous portion of basmati rice (huge portion, enough for 3-4 people as a side). The rice was aromatic, cooked correctly,not gummy at all. The coconut chicken was seasoned well, the chicken was tender with plenty of sauce. Also a large enough portion to make 2 meals out of it. The Samosas were the standout of the meal, highly recommended.

We stopped by Four Monkeys on a busy Friday night, and the place was packed, always a promising sign. Even with the crowd, parking wasn't an issue at all; Lot 3 is right nearby and there's plenty of street parking, which made getting in and out painless. Inside, the restaurant is on the smaller side, but they've managed to fit in a surprising number of tables without making it feel cramped. The lighting is dim and moody in a way that works well for the space, and the subtle monkey-themed decor is genuinely charming- playful but tasteful. Menus are all via QR code, and even the cutlery feels upgraded and fancy, adding a nice touch. Service was a highlight. The staff is friendly, helpful, and refreshingly honest as they guided us through the menu, prevented us from over-ordering, and offered thoughtful recommendations. For water, they give you options: tap, sparkling, or still. What we ordered: * Pili Mirch Paneer Tikka (appetizer) * Bandar Butter Chicken * Homestyle Bhuna Chicken * Garlic Naan (pro tip: the naans are huge, one is easily enough for two people) The paneer app was really solid, think paneer tikka with a definite kick, paired with some tasty dipping sauce, chutney, and even grilled pineapple. A fun combo and definitely one of the stronger dishes. The mains, though, both the butter chicken and homestyle bhuna chicken, leaned very much on the milder side. The sauces were more liquidy than expected, and they felt geared toward diners who prefer Indian food without the heat. With slightly less gravy and a bit more spice, both dishes could've been standouts. The garlic naan was fine, though more firm than the soft, melt-in-your-mouth style I usually prefer. Overall, I'd say Four Monkeys is a good try and a nice addition to Summit, but probably not my go-to Indian spot for the food alone. That said, the ambiance is great, the staff is wonderful, and it's worth a visit, especially if you're into milder Indian flavors or want a cozy, lively night out.

Inconsistent. Last time was too salty (and I love salt!) and spicy when asked for mild but when…read moreit's good, it's great! Also, this place has a real issue with time: The one occasion we dined there we sat at the table for over an hour after ordering, waiting. All the while Uber eats etc drivers were gathering and standing, hovering in the dining area waiting too with some were getting downright uncouth. Not a pleasant experience. I can understand why some restaurants won't deal with these drivers at all. At least the employees maintained decorum. My tip: order and pickup but wait a half hour longer than they tell you. Sticky floors and a noticeable odor hit you at the entrance. Hopefully, they'll clean it instead of just hiding it under a rug

We were first timers recently but certainly not last timers…read more Heads up, there is parking in the back and even an entrance in the back. The door in the back is just a solid white door with no glass or any way to see in but trust me it takes you into the restaurant For apps we had the pakora basket. It came with a samosa and beetroot tikki as well. The samosa was great and the beetroot tikki had promise but was a little free with the fennel seeds. The spinach pakora - please just offer me this by the basketful! The rest of the pakora (caulflower, onion and potato) were good but after a few we had our share of besan. Also to start was the lasooni gobhi 65. Our son is selectively spice-averse so we asked for the sauce on the side. The cauliflower was fried in what seemed like a thinner besan (chickpea) batter and was red. While it was piping hot, I did not find it too crispy and the sauce in the bowl on the side lacked that garlic oomph. No worries at least the kid loved it. The Paneer Tikka was next. This is where the flavor resides! One of the best paneer tikkas we have had. Edges slightly crisp and flavor still intact with a soft paneer. No cheating with the torch like some restaurants do. Star of the night. Vegetable Jalfrezi - Packed with fresh veggies, savory flavor and not cut with potatoes. This is was blanketed with the tandoori roti we ordered. We will be back, and next time I am heading straight to the same mains we ordered. The food comes out hot and fast, so be ready!
