An authentic Indian sweets/mithaai shop right in our own backyard - Edison. They have a plethora of fresh sweets selection on display right from Chumchum, rasgulla, gulag jamun to variety of ladoos to many more. They have a convenient seating for food and snacks that you can order for a dining experience or take a carry-out. Their chaat selections is pretty good and offer good taste. The parking area has never been a hassle and is located in a prime area of the Oak Tree road. read more

We stopped by to pick up food to go. As usual, lots of variety. Food was ready in 15' even though it was a large order for 7 adults. The packaging was disappointing. The chutneys were mixed in the dahi, so not possible to personalize. Maybe we had to ask for them to be packaged separately?, Overall, good food made to order. read more

A craving for chole bhature made us stop by here. We were not disappointed. Although the chole were a little saltier than expected the bhature were nice and fluffy served with raw onion and achar. We followed this up with masala chai. Good ambiance and service. Would revisit. read more

chaat is one of my favorite foods, and i love going to bikanervala. it's always super busy and has an incredible assortment of desserts and sweets on display. however, what really stands out to me is their chaat selection. my overall favorite is their samosa chaat--i absolutely adore the yogurt sauce and the perfect blend of spicy and sweet chutney they use, along with the crunchy, perfectly seasoned potato filling in the samosas. the service is decently quick; i usually get my food within 20 minutes. there's plenty of seating inside, and i really enjoy taking food to go too, since they carefully separate each item so nothing gets soggy. the staff is very nice and accommodating. totally recommend checking out the spot. read more

In search for a good chaat spot on oak tree road back n forth, we found Bikanervala in a corner of a shopping strip. I was going to order our go to items: Bhel puri, dahi puri and chaat papri; however the manager on duty suggested couple of other items, which we did. We ordered Raj kachori, Chole bature and Chaat papri. Raj kachori was very good. Very savory and flavorful. It was the first time I had it. The chaat papri was pretty good too. Excellent blend of spices and seasoning and the presentation was pretty good. The Chole bature was good too. I thought the puri was excellent, but the Chole themselves were ok. I mean, I've had better. They were still good taste but i didn't care for the paneer that was in the dish. Overall, I will return to try other items on their me read more

I love the selection of sweets here. The malai roll is my favorite because it's not very sweet.

We had Chole Batura and pani puri! I would say pani puri tasted average! But the chole batura is excellent! Service is extremely good! Everyone who works there are the sweetest! read more

So we had few friends from London and Texas and want to try authentic North Indian food . I told them about Bikanevala and they got excited as this is one of the fav restaurant in North India(I have been to this place number of times and always love it).. We went their and ambience was so authentic.. it's like sitting in Bikanevala in Noida,India. We ordered chola bhatura, Delux Thali, Rabri falooda and kesar badam milkshake.. Pros : food was amazing and we can choose what we can have as vegetable in Thali which was new and good Service was quick and I like the personal touch from owner/manager.. Cons: none found read more

This place has amazing authentic Indian street food! The Raj Kachori was refreshing and delicious and the deluxe thaali was absolutely amazing (they give you multiple paneer options to choose from as well which I loved!) My favorite was definitely the Rabri Falooda which is unlike any I've had; it's definitely a MUST HAVE! The Masala chai was really good too. Highly recommend stopping by! read more

We were here on a weekday for lunch and the service was extremely slow. There was a big confusion on which server will wait us. Order placed took 25mins to arrive. We ordered cholay baturay to share. The food came hot and tasted delicious. Then we ordered kulfi falooda which was disappointing. Whilst the desert was decorated well and looked very appealing it didn't taste that good. Also, it took us three calls to the wait staff to remind them that we are waiting for our desert. They were busy talking to each other. In fact, the check also took time to arrive. The dine-in experience was just 2 stars, but we did take desert to-go which was delicious. There was just one person behind the counter and was trying to serve multiple people at the same time. They charge deserts by the wtg. It seemed a bit expensive but delicious. read more

I used to love love this place when they opened. We stopped here on our way back from New York to savor some Edison level indian food. We ordered chole bhature and kulfi falooda. Service was slow. It took time for the guy to come get the order even though the restaurant was pretty empty. Chole bhature was pretty good taste wise. Kulfi falooda was a lot better when we had it last time. Their quality is going down. Bathrooms were very dirty and the place overall did not look very clean. I'll still stop by to pick indian mithais whenever I'm in Edison but I might not eat here again. read more

Worst Indian food I ever had in NJ. We ordered masala dosa which was dry, had 2 spoons of mashed tasteless potatoes with raw onions & no spice or herbs. The paneer tikka wasn't even marinated & was soggy. They are spoiling Bikanervala's brand name by sellling tasteless food. I wouldn't recommend this place. read more

We tried the south Brunswick location and wanted to also try Edison branch . Sweets are kinda good .. there are other sweets shop nearby , like mithaas , that we normally go to, but wanted to also try something new. Price is almost similar and taste was good. We ate some chat items - samosa was good .. but others were a little average . Parking available in the front and rear side of this shop. Customer service could be better . The lady at the counter is very customer focused and talks gently.. the guy could be better towards customers . Thought of giving a 4 , but the customer service pulled it down to a 3.. thumbs up to the owners and management ... read more

Malai pau is too good but the sweets are sooo bad. I recommend this place for Malai Pau only.

The much waited $14 thali was extremely disappointing. The quantity of the thali for the buck will win over any other thali served, but the quality was def a letdown. I took the Deluxe thali with Dal Makhani, Paneer Butter Masala, and Mix veg. It came with the greasiest Naan, rice, boondi raita, salad (cucumber&onion) + packed pickle (the one that you get in long haul flights) and extra sweet Gulab Jamun. The PBM tasted exactly like store-bought frozen I mean, the resemblance was uncanny. The rice served was not just beyond my appetite capability, but was greasy as well. All their vegetables were reeking of fat. I definitely needed a palate cleanser after that. Took the leftovers home, but couldn't eat another morsel of fat the day after. I love Bikanervala for their Samosas and other chaat items. Samosas are perfectly crispy; made in ghee - at least they taste so - the chutneys are so good and heavenly. Their festival sweets are on point. Probably I should just explore their chaats and continue my search for a perfect thali somewhere else ! Phew! read more

Came here for some snacks but ended up being a bit disappointed. We got chai but they only had Splenda sugar out for sweetener. The papri chaat was pretty ok but the chole bature was also ok. We had high hopes. It just didn't have a lot of flavor and service was just ok. Just a bit underwhelming. read more

It's our go to place for Indian sweets in Edison, my husband gets malai rasgulla from here n i like ghevar and rabri is decent too. We had lunch here this time, has a plate of khandvi, it was really flavorful, a plate of pyaz kachori it was good too and a stuffed onion kulcha, kulcha was fine but chhole had flavor of soda that i dislike and dahi of raita had gone bad, we did complain about raita. The chatnis etc and overall chaats/streetfood here is good read more

The best place in New Jersey if you're looking for Delhi waale chole Bhature. It reminds of the taste that you get in Purani Delhi. Also I love this place because of the awesome thali they have which has delicious Veg curries like Paneer Makhni, Palak Paneer, Daal Makhni, Naan, Baasmati Rice and complimentary sweets and Pickle also. I can't stop talking about the items here, I belong to Darjeeling and I am a fan of Momos. The momos that we get here reminds me of home made Momos, its delicious Also try their Pyaaz Kachori and Daal kachori, you will not find traditional taste like Kachoris anywhere else except Bikanervala. Whenever I stop by at Bikanervala, I always gets tons of different sweets packed coz I simply cannot choose one over another. I am a big fan of Bikanervala's Rasmali, try their Gud Rasmalai as well it's something different that you'll only get here. So if you're in New Jersey and fan of Indian sweets and snacks don't miss to go to Bikanervala. read more

Had heard from friends about Bikanervala opening in New Jersey. So decided to visit during my last visit to Edison. Don't go expecting the variety that India stores have. For some reason, Indian chains when they open shop in USA, can't replicate the variety available there. Maybe the expert cooks are not available here. It is a mini-version. I found lot of namkeen varieties. Sweets were very few. On asking was told, that sweet variety frequently changes. Some of the items are constant, but they do bring out 'specials'. I bought a bengali sweet (hadn't heard the name before...now don't remember what it was). Tried it at home and it was very good. They have a snack shop attached, which I didn't get to try. Maybe next time. read more

The food is pretty good and the decor is spot on (totally has that India feel). The service on the other hand is extremely slow. All the servers are extremely polite, but they def need to do a better job in expediting the food orders. Things to order: Def their kulchas Samosa chaat Skip: Papdi chaat Haldi milk read more

Went today to the Jersey City branch. I can see the total disaster in making. Doesn't look like they know 2 shit about running a restaurant. 4 people taking order at the self serve billing counter and just one scrambling and putting together food, that too at a snails place. For an extremely limited menu it took over half an hour to be served shoddily put together dishes. Newark Avenue has a high turnover and if they don't up their game, Ta Ta Bye Bye! read more

Good food no doubt on that and their speciality is sweet a must try thing. However, the reason besides 3 stars was they have outdated message service. As per the cashier he mentioned that you will receive a message once the food is ready. Which came after an hour but lucky me I went to check in after 25 minutes and the food was ready About food it was a bit cold especially dosa and the expectation was Mysore masala dosa so the dosa should be coated with garlic but it was plain and the masala was more or less like a normal dosa so nothing special. Raj kachodi was pretty good you def can go for it They have decent packing but the chutney wasn't packed properly and was all over the rest containers Thanks for reading! read more

Relatively new location with excellent mithai and Farsaan. We got Ghevar, Kaju Katli, Rasgulla, Kaju Kesar stuffed pots, roasted black Chana, sev and cocktail samosas. All mithai and Farsaan were fantastic and a wonderful reminder of Ahmedabad in your mouth. A full 5/5. For in house dining we got the dosa, thaali and tandoori sampler. The tandoor sampler (comes on a sizzler plate but doesn't sizzle) is unique with an assortment of a Paneer tikka sizzler, stuffed potatoes and a dry veg seeks Kabab. It comes with Dal Makhni and tandoori butter naan and green chutney. All around a win with maybe a 4/5 rating. Negative points for the dry mealy seekh Kabab. Dosa was crisp, buttery and delicious. Largest in the area for portion size and truly a delight. The thaali is a combination of 2 kinds of Paneer curries, Dal Makhni, papad, Rasgulla, pickle, paratha, papad and Naan. Hands down the paratha and naan are perfection. All curries (Paneer butter masala and Mutter Paneer) are mediocre and overly salty. The lack of authenticity in the curry flavors cost them a rating here. They also had sweet fresh paan at $8:50 for 3 pieces which were pretty nice. My opinion is- Farsaan, sweets and appetizers here rock. For real entrees- look elsewhere. Ambience is modern yet very Indian. Staff on the counter is very efficient. Serving staff is a little too easy going and would do better with efficiency. Take your time here. They don't hurry. read more

Been here few times. Low rating for the swindling customer service. Otherwise food is MEH!

Saw this place while driving by and decided to stop and give it a try. Walked in and it was not what we expected, it was very nice, clean and a very modern type of decor. On the outside it's a bit dirty I guess just because of the plaza itself. Walked in and took up a time to get seated and order food. The service was superb, the food was great and ambience was amazing as well. Or you can pay right at your seat so it definitely is modern. For Indian food since it can vary among's north south east or even west. We found this food to be a very good mix for people over India. We got dahi puri it was 9/10 honestly great. Pav bhaaji was 8/10, really good Idli sambaar was 6/10. Wasn't bad but sambaar could be better plus idli was a bit hard not super hard but just a bit. We will definitely be back since it was great food for a great price. read more

Both the Raj kachori and papri chaat were excellent - just perfectly done and we highly recommend them. The bhatura in the chole bhatura was just perfectly done. The chole could be tender, but tasted good. The serving size was inadequate for the bhatura that accompanied them. Be warned if you are going to order the kulcha - they take a while before they get to the table. The first order of onion kulcha came with three quarters - very unique experience. No comments, explanations were offered when it was delivered. They came with other items from our order so the lack of the complete order was not immediately apparent to us. When we questioned them, they had to go back and check and came back and said the 4th quarter was overdone/burnt/crispy and hence it was not given to us. To their credit - at this point, they offered a refund but we opted to get another order which came in whole :-). The raita accompanying the gobhi paratha was outstanding in taste and flavor. The gobhi paratha was exactly the opposite. Insipid to say the least - please avoid. The dal accompanying the gobhi paratha was very good but could use less cream. The paneer kulcha was better than the onion kulcha in terms of it's stuffing and is worth the wait as long as you don't compare it to Amritsari kulcha's. Overall, if I had to go back, I would do so only for the chaat. read more

Great food and nice staff!! Like the chole bhature and samosas. Definitely worth a try!!

You can never go wrong with Bikanervala ! Their food is outstanding every time and undoubtedly one of the best Indian foods in Edison . Chole bhature and their veg thali are worth a mention and also their mango lassi. Service can be hit and miss sometimes though read more

Great Indian food! Definitely recommend the Chhole Bhature that we had, dosas and mango lassi. The staff was very friendly and tried to give us the best possible service even though we went on a busy Saturday evening on the day of a popular Indian festival (Ganesh Chaturthi). Would definitely recommend this place. read more

Samosa and Kachoris were stale and refried, extremely oily. Will not visit again.

Mithai, dosas, and Chana bhatura! What else do you need for an amazing Indian restaurant? Seriously this place has great all veg Indian food, especially the dosas and Chana bhatura. There is a cute mithai shop in front as well where we bought things for an engagement party. Since COVID, there is an all-online ordering system through an app that is very convenient and available at all of the tables. the food is served very promptly with large but reasonable portions. Highly recommend ! read more

Undoubtedly the fresh and best sweets in Edison name any , specifically Gulab Jamun Rasmalai Milk cakes Or the chat options available or be the dinner or lunch menu, everything is good with great ambiance One thing I couldn't understand why did they reduced the size of the gulabjamuns and increased the price of the rasmalai .This is America and I am not sure which price inflated Milk ,Sugar or Mawa,in my knowledge none .Or it was a marketing strategy to get better sized sweets initially and strategically reducing the portion/ size or increasing price. Would like to know more about this !! read more
