To clarify, this review is specifically for the Thali. The butter chicken was good, but the curry chicken was a bit bland. We would consider going back to try their other dishes, but probably not on a weekday during a lunch break. If you're coming from work and need to get back quickly, this may not be the best spot for a quick lunch.

In spite of good reviews and a second change in decor, that business was not able to survive very long. As I walked in to pick up my order I had mixed feelings. Sad about the fact that another very good and unique European restaurant was gone, and wondering about the future success of the new business. I noticed that the place had been painted and redecorated once again . This I guess could be called an Indian fusion house, offering many common dishes along with some I had not heard of. They also have Indo Chinese options. My first visit was so good that I thought I would return once more before reviewing. I tried the garlic naan and aloo paratha, both good to very good. The paratha was very thin and had a delicately spiced potato mixture inside, I wished there was more filling but enjoyed as it was. The chicken 65 tasted very good, but had too much sauce as I would have preferred the pieces of meat to be crispy. Chicken Radha was a rustic curry with about half of a bone in chicken. I loved this dish and the portion was 2 meals. Chicken biryani was equally tasty and came with very good raita. Chicken Manchow soup was new to me, think hot and sour soup and then add copious amounts of ginger and garlic. You have to like garlic to appreciate this soup, and I do and did! Service was friendly on both visits and orders were packed up very well, with additional onion, lime and peppers for the biryani and crispy noodles to top the soup with. A good friend went to dine in and had a great meal too, taking advantage of the all you can eat lunch Thali. I'm at about 4.5 stars for now....

I can only speak to my take out experience as I never actually eat in their dining room. For take out, we ordered butter chicken, chicken tikka and chicken biyani.

I love spicy food and I still find it very spicy. But I can't help it to keep going back for more. I will continue to order from persis as I haven't had any issue with their food or service.

The staff was helpful and attentive. The owner came by and spoke to us for a while - he has experience cooking various cuisines besides Indian, and has worked on cruise ships. Their specialty is in South Indian cuisine and they've been in business for 6 months. The garlic naan was thin and crispy, different than the thicker, breadier naan we usually see. The flavor on the chicken tikka masala was outstanding. We liked the lentil spinach dish, low flavor but more natural tasting. Very reasonable prices too! We had the rosemilk, asked for no added sugar. A great find and we will be back. Love supporting local businesses!

They had unique flavors such as haldi ki subzi as part of their winter menu. We took that as take out. The food was a bit oily to our liking. But tasted very well. For thali, some of subzi felt refrigerated and not properly reheated and hence one star less. But over all I do recommend this place for some nice Indian food.

I hadn't even left my number. Truly wonderful customer service! Thank you for making our Thanksgiving so memorable with your delicious cakes. We will be back!

We ordered from Indian Hut through GrubHub on one of those nights when nobody wanted to cook and hapiness seemed balanced entirely on whether or not naan would arrive warm. My wife got butter chicken because some people discover a thing they love and wisely refuse to gamble with happiness. It was genuinely good. Rich, comforting, sweet in the proper way. The sort of dish that makes you sit quietly for a moment and forgive the world for inventing email. I ordered the malai kofta. The sauce was lovely, silky and fragrant, but the kofta itself had the texture of damp gravel held together by optimism. Gritty and loosely packed. Every bite felt like it had been assembled during a minor labor dispute. Then came the revelation that neither entrée included rice, it was an add on. This struck me as somewhat unsettling. Serving Indian curries without rice feels like giving someone a violin without strings. Yes, technically the object exists, but now everybody is sad and confused. The naan also didn't rescue the evening. It emerged from it's foil cocoon gummy and tired, like it had already lived a long and difficult life before reaching our doorstep. The tragedy here is geographic. Lawrenceville and the surrounding area are overflowing with excellent Indian restaurants. Places where the spices sing hymns and the bread seems blessed by small and benevolent gods. Against that competition, this meal just sort of sat there under the kitchen light wondering what happened. Not terrible. Not memorable. Just one more delivery bag entering the great American night.

We would have been grateful enough for a warm restaurant and decent food, but I certainly didn't expect to find my favorite Indian food in New Jersey here (I know that's a big claim; it was just that good). Let's address the elephant in the room here: sometimes Indian food doesn't look camera-ready. For instance, my absolute favorite thing here was the chana palak, an extremely flavor-packed curry with chickpeas and spinach. What shows up (regretfully) as a greenish mud in pictures is actually an absolute flavor bomb in the mouth. Truly, I still have dreams about this dish. If looks matter to you, I also highly recommend the salmon tandoori special. It arrived on a sizzling platter (the kind that makes heads turn and eyes lock as it approaches the lucky table). There was more flavor to be had here, and I adore a dish that's hot enough to carry a blister risk while eating...especially in the middle of an icy snowstorm. Service was incredibly warm, welcoming, and efficient. Our server checked in with us the exact right number of times, and he repeatedly asked about whether we wanted to take leftovers home, the way a friend or kind auntie might after you've dined sumptuously at her table.
