Dropped by Dimple's for a quick lunch while in Iselin on a shopping trip. It's a no-frills spot but the food comes out fast. Service is quick and attentive. - Bombay Sandwich (4.5/5) - Missed this from my last visit to India. It was nicely toasted/grilled with a flavoral mix of potato, tomato, cucumber and chutneys. Came with a side of chips. - Chole Bhature (4.5/5) - super tasty, good spice, very warm fresh bread. It's one of my favorite comfort foods and done well here It's a reliable spot for quick authentic Indian street food. read more

5 stars- Based on my expectations for Indian Street food! It was quick, simple, and a tasty lunch. It's far from fancy, the food had great flavor, the staff was friendly, accommodating and explained the dishes. No fancy plates, just paper plates, plastic, spoons, knives and forks. It's vegetarian and the food had excellent spices and flavor. Everything is to the spicy hot side. We have the vegetable samosa, you get two. The Kati roll which wax delicious and the veg Britain rice which was my favorite. They have a wide variety of appetizers, rice dishes, entree size portions and you can share everything. They have a good selection of beverages as well. There is outdoor seating under umbrellas, and parking within walking distance. I would highly recommend them while in the Iselin and Woodbridge New Jersey area. read more

One of the early Indian restaurants in the Edison region that grew popular and expanded! Came around 1230 on a Saturday and was very easy to get a table. Light, area with indoor and outdoor seating! Tried the following, all very yummy to me but I'm no judge of Indian food! Kala Khatta drink Bombay chat Gobi manchuria Chole bhature read more

Omg, this food is the bomb! It's the stuff Gujarati food dreams are made of! The outdoor patio was perfect. The day we went because the weather was gorgeous and the service was great, they brought food out continuously and refilled our water. The staff never complained or fuss and it's so good. Enjoyed the choke batture, bhel puri, pani puri, Dahi vada, masala dosa and more! I can't wait to go back! read more

So good! We came here to take a break from shopping and it was delicious. I was a fan of the paneer khati roll and the vada pav. Definetly recommend the veggie grilled sandwich as well. The mango lassi was yummy, tad on the sweet side. I wouldn't recommend the chai however as it tasted kind of bitter and just like milk. read more

We were quite disappointed with our visit, especially after seeing this place usually full. It fell way below our expectations. We ordered the following items: Masala Dosa. 3/5 Perhaps was the best thing we ordered. The potatoes inside the dosa were good, but not seasoned enough. We didn't care for the other fixings that came, such as sambar, etc Tokri Chaat 3/5. It was ok. Didn't care for the ingredients that were served. Perhaps it was the yogurt that didn't taste good. Bombay chaat 1/5. By far the worst item we ordered. Fell way below. It had dahi badas in it which were hard and they broke down in the chaat making the texture very mushy and unappetizing. Service was good. And ambiance was your typical snack spot. I do believe items were overpriced. This is a closed chapter. read more

Went back to dimples today and ordered some food . Disappointed ! We always loved dimple but today was not good ! Oh my god - American chipsey was such a flop ! Not even 10% as good as what we used to have before . Even the veg manchow soup was a bit watery ! Not the same taste . Not sure if the chef changed . Paneer was bad too :( I can only taste paneer and not anything f else . It was kinda raw. Veg rice was awesomeeeeee .. might have to take dimples off my list now :( read more

This is our go-to vegetarian Indian spot whenever we are in Iselin. Have been coming here for years. I always order the chole bhatura but they also have delicious dosa, indochine food, samosa, drinks & more. Don't be surprised if there are long lines on the weekend. Luckily things move fast & it's def worth the wait! Please support your local businesses! read more

The ongoing pandemic has definitely taken a toll on a lot of businesses and public places since a consumer's mindset to buy anything outside of essentials or to visit a public place like a park or beach, has crippled down significantly. Now by living with what has become the new normal, it is commendable on how these businesses and public places continue to remain open and cater to the general public by following the safety standards. It is now all the more important that we as customers, support these heroes during these dark hours to mankind. We went there on a relative's recommendation who was visiting us from NC. Due to the pandemic, they have a mandatory temperature check before letting us in but there was no one person assigned for the job and we had to wait for few minutes even after the staff was aware that we were waiting behind the doors. After we passed it, we were offered a table distanced from rest of the crowd. They don't have a hard copy of the menu card and you need to scan the QR code label that was stuck on every table. Unluckily none of us had the feature to scan it, but luckily had taken a pic of the menu card that was stuck on one of the walls near the entrance for our reference. They have a nice staff in Rhea who was an all rounder running around waiting the table, answering to questions patiently, taking orders over phone and checking out guests who had come to take their carry out. She was very courteous in knowing when to bring what and let us know in advance. Now to the main attraction, FOOD. The taste was so authentic that it transported me back to the days I spent in Bombay(Mumbai) 12 years back. We ordered Tokri chat, Cutlet chat, Pani puri and Bombay chat. All the dishes were tremendously native and tasty. The creamy Rasamalaai for a dessert was a treat to end the meal. If you are visiting NJ/Edison and are a fan of Chat, you can definitely tip your money here. read more

I've been here a few times and this restaurant is always buzzing with people coming in and out. I'm not that familiar with Indian food, but I always think the food here is great! A few of my favorite dishes include their tokri chat, samosa chat, and paper masala dosa. Note that the dining area is small and the tables are lined up against each other, so it can feel crowded, especially during peak lunch/dinner hours. It's not that ideal for larger groups, but probably do-able if you come early or come during off peak hours. Service is consistently friendly, but it can be chaotic trying to flag down a waiter when the restaurant gets busy. During my last visit, I really appreciated our server who helped make some of the dishes less spicy, especially since the group I came with was new to Indian food and couldn't handle too much spices. One thing I noticed was that all the dishes were served on styrofoam plates/bowls with plastic utensils. It seems wasteful, and I hope they can move towards being more sustainable and environmentally friendly. read more

Dimple's Bombay Talk is about as real as it gets outside of Calcutta or New Delhi. If you've ever spent any time in Iselin or Edison then you know how similar India is to New Jersey. The parallels between India and New Jersey are uncanny! This restaurant is owned and operated by Indian Americans who know authentic Indian cuisine. Unfortunately they don't offer mulligatawny soup. They have a separate version in India called something else which they informed me about. I will come back for hybrid Indian Chinese food whenever I'm back in the area. read more

Dimple's Bombay Talk can be found in the Indian food capital of the east coast: Oak Tree Rd in Edison, NJ. They have a wide variety of dishes, all tuned to their own specific flavors. We decided to try some of their bites (chaat style dishes), which they are known the most for. We ordered the samosa chat and khasta kachori. Both were good and packed with flavor, however there was no "wow" factor. It felt as if the same foods could be made at home. However, I do look forward to trying more of their dishes at my next visit! read more

Trip to NYC/NJ means it a must stop in Edison - Oak Tree road! I have been here many times now and it's been pretty much the same overall. Tokri chaat - I usually get the khasta Katchori but this time got the tokri chaat. I think the khasta Katchori might be better as the tokri is made out of potatoes and is hard to break it when trying to eat. Whereas the khasta Katchori breaks reaily. Also this one was filled with a lot dry Indian snacks like dal, boondhi, posh chevdo, etc. 2.5/5 Manchao soup - tried for the first time and will be the last time. 1/5 Dry Gobi Manchurian - was really good! Just one thing I with they did was have smaller pieces of Goni instead of really large. 4/5 Hakka noodles - average and as usual. 4/5 read more

It's a small chaat shop, so pretty small and cramped (think of a dive bar). It's a little grimy and the parking lot is small but we found a spot nearby. The staff was friendly. The food is pretty okay, but pricey for the portion size. There's better value down the street. All of the utensils and cutlery was plastic or styrofoam which is unnecessarily wasteful (the kitchen looked more than big enough to wash plates like every other restaurant). read more

This place needs a big overhaul in terms of crowd management and proper execution of Covid precautions. This tiny restaurant, on a normal day, would've been a nice spot to eat your favorite meal and catch up with friends and family, but during this ongoing pandemic, the staff needs to do more to ensure the safety of the people dining in, and more so, their own safety. This restaurant is located street side with very limited parking. I had ordered take out from this place during a very rainy weekend and my experience was frustrating, and frankly, a little overwhelming. The place was operating at almost full capacity, the take out process was a mess as we were told to wait outside on the common area, which is a small place as you open the door but not inside the restaurant, and oh boy, the waiting was just soooo long. People were scrambling to be seated, and as I stood there, waiting for my take out order, more and more kept coming to get a table indoors. They had a few tables arranged outside but the rain just didn't help this cause. All this being said, the food that I had ordered was amazing! I got - dry gobi manchurian, cutlet chat and chatpatti chat. The gobi manchurian was fantastic and had punchy flavor, the cutlet chat had a big cutlet as the base and chole (beans) as the topping which paired well and the charpatti chat had a blend of flavors which would entice your taste buds. Key takeaways- Limited parking, messy take out process, questionable Covid precautions in place with respect to indoor dining but, the food was YUM. read more

I came with my 'Indian Mafia' lunch buddies for lunch. I liked that there was a parking. I'd hate to street park in Iselin. I got grilled veg sandwich, Rava masala dosa, and a Indian hallo Halo sorry I forgot what the name of that tasty drink. My friends got the samosa, dosa, and some stuff I don't know the name but they told me many times. My dosa was pretty good, I still like Sri dosa over here. The veg sandwich tasted what it would be. I was expecting it to taste better. But it tasted like a salad in between buttered toast. My flatool? Was the dried out version. It was very refreshing. I didn't like the noodles. It's like having corn in Halo Halo. That's an abomination to sweet cold dessert. Discount when you pay in cash. We threw the money lady for a loop because all 6 of us wanted to pay separately. She hunkered down and got all items paid for. My 3 items cost $25. Really pricey for street veg food. I'd go back to try the Indian Chinese food. If there are recommendations. Let me know. I'm still learning. read more

I was disappointed with this place. We got lots of things to go since we heard so much about this place but we were really disappointed. We tried their hakka potatoes, tokri chaat, noodles, mango lassi and rose falooda and few other items. Tokri chat was decent but everything else was slightly disappointing. read more

I've only ordered their tokri (bowl) chaat. It's soooo good. Is the best chaat we've had. Now they have nice outdoor seating due to covid; it's actually better then the cramped inside look which made me always opt for takeout versus dine in. Tokri chaat... it can be too sweet so ask for the sweet chutney on the side do you can control the sugar! The yogurt is also sweet. It's inconsistent in sugar so just a heads up that although this is my favorite, I did feel some sugar poisoning last time lol. read more

Dimple's is a staple fast food place on Oak Tree Rd. I have been here more times than I can honestly remember over the course of 25 years. Most recently, I went in February for something with my mom. Since we were there around dinner time, we decided to grab a quick bite at Dimple's. Luckily, we were there on a weekday otherwise if it was the weekend? Forget about it!! They were quick to bring our food, but one thing I hate is when it comes time to pay, you don't know if they're gonna bring the check to you or you have to go to the front to pay. A lot of places on Oak Tree are pay at the front type places, and the waiters don't come to you unless you flag them down. It's annoying, but a point I can forgive them for. Overall a great indian fast food joint, definitely recommend. read more
