    Veg Hakka Noodles

    Enjoyed a good Indian Chinese food after a long time. The food was well cooked cooked, it was crispy as it should be. Thank you for the good service.

    The flavors here really blew me away! We ordered medium spice for our entrees but their medium level packs quite a bit of heat - be warned! Easily would come back here again to get the same dishes, but also to try their lamb/goat Chicken Lollipops ($10): the color looks so artificial here but this was delicious. Breading was perfect - light and crunchy, and the chicken inside was still very juicy. The red sauce that came with this was also really spicy and went so well with the chicken Chicken Mughlai Biryani ($13): SO spicy! They were very generous with the pieces of chicken and those were chunky pieces as well. Rice was so fluffy and the spices/flavor to this made me fall in love. Kadai Chicken ($13): WOW! Unfortunately, this only came with four pieces of meat (seriously???) but the sauce was amazing. Perfect amount of spiciness, and I could've easily just had two bowls of rice with the sauce alone. Chicken was tender and flavorful as well. Garlic Naan ($4): comes with four buttery, garlicky pieces of bread that could've used more salt but was so good with the white sauce.

    Love this Indian restaurant, they have the best service. Food is delicious and perfectly spiced. Great for vegetarians and meat eaters. Btw, If you know how busy "little Indian" is, it's almost impossible to find parking in the area. And so this restaurant has its own small parking lot, halfway down Newark ave so you can park for free if dining there 1 hour!

    That's not how the bartender served the same drinks to his peoples.

    Food is excellent service ok, but I say ok because I never witness racism like this b 4! I ordered food that was great but when me n my lady friend ordered drinks it was served half full than their people show up n as God as my witness the ordered the same 2 drinks we ordered along with others their drinks was full to the rim. I should have taken pics, but it would have seemed wiered asking the next table to take a pic . So out of a 10, they get a 2. N I will never go back.

    They serve best pomfret fry in town.. It was a garba night and Indian st was full of enthusiastic Indians. We had a wonderful time and then we dine out here. It was crowded, but we got the table. They do offer BYOB so we brought a bottle of whiskey with us. We ordered a martini and some appetizers, what I remember is, pomfret fry was awesome. We ordered the main course as well. They were good too. We were there for close to 2 hours. Drinks-food chit chat and garba night. Good time.

    Desi Chicken Curry

    The chicken curry we ordered was the worst ever! The chicken pieces were so hard, it wasn't cooked at all, not even 1%. I felt like I had raw chicken. The taste was so bad, also since we ordered it to be spicy. They just sprinkled some chilli powder and green chillies into it! The chilly weren't cooked either! I used to love this place and was a regular customer but since last couple of times they never fail to disappoint :(

    Lunch buffet

    I went to their lunch buffet and it was good! They had fish curry, chicken curry, buttermilk, naan, Hakka noodles, Manchurian, tandoori chicken, and rajma. The desserts they had were kheer and mango ras. Everything was very tasty.

    Located in Jersey City's bustling India Square, I came here with a friend to try their $21 weekend…read morebuffet. Upon entering the colorful and spacious interior, we were given booth seating. There were a large variety of choices for the buffet, and I tried a little bit of everything. It was all cooked well and wonderfully flavorful with tons of warm seasonings. Stand outs included butter chicken, noodles, curry, and tandoori. I would have liked more seafood options and meat other than chicken though. The Naan was served warm and slightly crisp, while still being soft. I decided to also order a drink called Shahi Falooda. Since I never tried it, I didn't know how it was supposed to look, even though I thought the presentation was a bit weird, as there were pieces of toast dredged in the liquid. When I tried it, there seemed to be all the flavors described, including rose almond milk, tutti frutti, and vanilla ice cream. It tasted creamy, sweet, and unique, with the ingredients mingling well together. Service was definitely lacking. When the bill came, it was listed as a dessert, so I inquired about it. The waiter responded that they did not have the beverage available, so served me something else instead. This really irked me that the waiter would knowingly do this without mentioning up front that they were out of the beverage, allowing me the free choice to either order another drink or not get one at all. The waiter then told us it would be taken off the bill, but a different waiter came out to inform us that the manager would not allow that. While the food was actually pretty good, this was a very upsetting experience and I will not be returning. At least this taught me to always speak up when I have a doubt or question about anything I order.

These Chicken drumsticks are tossed in a sweet, spicy sauce that's a total flavor bomb and incredibly addictive. It really borders on too much spice and just really meaty too. A shareable appetizer with a friend. The Butter Chicken is also a favorite of mine. Rich chunky cubes of chicken, in a spiced tomato and butter-based curry (makhan) gravy. Butter chicken is typically known for a creamy, rich texture and that's a definite check box here. This gravy over rice is a hit for sure. I always get a plate of Garlic Naan here as well. This is the perfect vessel to shovel that rich Butter Chicken gravy into my mouth! Street parking is ridiculous. The spaces are so narrow, you'll be doing the D and R tango 4-5 times to park. Add the fact that mass transit buses go up and down this block as well and you've got a recipe for a lot of horn blowing and aggravation. And that's if you get lucky and find a spot!

We got Fish Masala, Chicken Makhani, Navratna Korma, and Lachha Paratha. The Fish Masala had a rich sauce with perfectly cooked and very tender fish. They used salmon, which was interesting as I was expecting some sort of white fish. It did make the dish a bit fishy, but nonetheless, delicious. The Chicken Makhani was my favorite. The sauce was rich, tomatoey, creamy, and complex in spices, but the chicken was very dry, unfortunately. The Navratna Korma was also creamy and slightly sweet. Everything went amazing with the white rice, but even better with the Lachha Paratha. It was so buttery and crispy with a slight chew. Overall, great experience and highly recommend. I still think about the Chicken Makhani and would love to go back and try their other dishes.

    I don't know why people would say Dahi Puri Chaat is good here---I saw that in reviews on Google…read moremaps and so ordered via DoorDash since I had ordered food from a nearby kebab place. Anyway they didn't even actually make the dahi puri! They just put the puri with some potatoes dry in a container and then on the side gave tiny chutney containers for the yogurt, tamarind sauce & green chutney. Ok if you're putting it separately to avoid sogginess then at least give enough for the dish. It was laughable how stingy they were. Dahi puri is supposed to have LOTS of yogurt and instead this minuscule container of completely watery "yogurt" was not even enough to fill 2 of the puri. $10 plus tax & tip for this?? Also since they didn't make anything why did they keep the driver waiting for SO long? What a complete waste of money & time.
