Contrary to popular opinion, this is actually my favorite place in Georgia (and specifically this location because their quantity and quality is top tier). I always make a trip here whenever I am visiting home. It's not the finest dining establishment, but the food is delicious. The place itself is a little dingy with odd seating, but I love it. You order at the front and they bring the food out to you. They also have a pani puri station which I have never tried but looks like it was super popular. My go to order is the paneer 65 ($10). I have never found a place that makes paneer 65 the way they do! It is cooked perfectly and the flavors with the onion and chutneys is delicious. We usually always order the chole bhatura ($12) as well, and it is a great classic. Their pakoras ($8) are so good too, and somehow taste amazing after the fridge as well. My brother always gets samosas ($5) here, so if you are a samosa fan, you should def order one. The only thing I am not obsessed with is their dosa ($12), but I'm quite picky with my dosas, so that's probably just a me problem. The highlight of our trip this time was their new menu item - Paneer 65 ($11) wrap!! It was slightly hidden on their menu, and I wouldn't have noticed if my brother didn't point it out, but we ordered it and it's my new favorite menu item. They didn't skimp on the amount of paneer inside, and the wrap was deliciously soft with onions and chutneys inside, as well as a creamy sauce, I'm not sure what it was but it was delicious. It also comes with masala fries yummm read more

I had an OK time in this place some things were overpriced and the desserts tasted good for the most part. It's one of the few places that has indian drin style dessert. read more

Had a craving for some classic Indian foods and went to Gokul Sweets since we were grocery shopping nearby! Got the pani puri, Gokul special chaat, and falooda to go. Tbh they all held up pretty well; good portions too. If you get pani puri or a chaat to go, you will have to assemble them at home on your own so it doesn't get soggy en route; but this is part of the fun haha! Pani puri comes with cilantro water, tamarind chutney, diced white onion, potato & pea mixture and a big bag of puris (crunchy shells). This was the perfect balance of sweet, spicy, savory, & refreshing, definitely get this. The chaat was decent; comes with puris, yogurt mixed with cilantro & tamarind chutney, chickpea mixture, sev (crunchy topping), diced mango, pomegranate, and a lentil donut covered in yogurt. Falooda (creamy rose flavored drink with toppings like nuts, vermicelli, & chia) always hits, even when the ice cream has melted lol. Service & ambiance are fine, could be better. 7/10 would recommend! read more

Gokul Sweets - Gokul Special Chaat, Pani Puri, Falooda - Indian Near Me - Decatur, Georgia

Entrees come with NO rice or bread. I spend 20 dollars on 2 entrees, when I get home NO rice! I wish I could leave zero stars.

Delicious assortment of Desi desserts and vegetarian dishes. This is a very casual spot with styrofoam dishes and plastic ware but the staff are friendly and there is large variety of things to choose from. I like the kadai paneer and samosa chaat, chai (unsweetened), with some jalebi, gulab jamun, malai jam and mango barfi. They also have several different flavored kulfis, Indian Chinese dishes and curries! Prices are fair for the portions. read more

This place has great selection of sweets but the customer service needs work. They weren't the friendliest people but they helped out. One this that was not good was exposed sweets. I saw a gnat flying around inside the fridge but I got distracted and forgot to mention it and didn't remember until i came back. There is a small paan shop which had good sweet paans. read more

I try to avoid rating Indian food joints. I'm somehow apprehensive in not being balanced and too critical. I grewup in India which possibly has the best street food in the world. At gokul I tried some of the popular dishes i.e. samosa chat and cauliflower Manchurian. Manchurian is not a Chinese dish but an Indian starter. I would rate the Manchurian slightly better than samosa chat. Overall the food is between 3 to 3.5 stars. I miss indian Street food so may come here again, but only if I'm missing it a lot. read more

Gokul Sweets - Samosa chat and gobhi manchurian - Indian Near Me - Decatur, Georgia

Our family favorite for Indian food! Authentic Indian food. Not fancy but very good quality.

Gokul Sweets in Decatur is an absolute disgrace to the culinary industry. We went there based on reviews and being a vegetarian restaurant. The food was so inedible that it ended up in the trash can even though we were hungry. The hygiene standards were shockingly low, with a server blatantly ignoring basic cleanliness protocols by serving food after eating without washing their hands. The sight of the restaurant's AC duct dripping onto served food areas was simply nauseating. read more

The worst chat I have ever had. Then tried their chole-bhature which were also horrible with no taste or spice. Good service though! read more

Their sweets are better than their food. Not all their sweets are great though so it's trial and error to get it right. My favs that I keep getting from here are (the others are lackluster IMO): * Kaju Roll - those who like Cashews. Dense but delicious. * Barfi - dense milk sweet in various flavors (milky fudge) * Peda - also a milk sweet but less "fudgy" than barfi * Milk Cake - as the name suggests, just a different preparation and taste * Anjeer Roll - made with dates and sugar You enter and you see a display of sweets. Usually, you can ask for help and taste a few sweets, or ask them to mix and match a box for you. Price is very reasonable and I think their fresh sweets are better than any store bought box. If you are looking to order food, there is a separate section within the shop to do so. At peak busy times, it can get chaotic so make sure you find your way around. In general, this is still my go to place for the sweets I listed above. If I was looking to get some Indian food, I would probably pick some of the other restaurants around. read more

ATL is lucky to have a Gokul Sweets in town. Overall the food at Gokul is solid but the one dish that my family and I love is the Pani Puri. The reason we enjoy it so much is because it's basically like a stand back in India, it also helps that the lady who served us was super nice. Pani Puri is bursting with flavor with the different spiced waters - you eat it whole and when you bite into it's just a ton of flavor flowing in. Check out this awesome experience you can have in ATL - but fair warning this is for advanced Indian food eaters.. many friends of mine who love Indian food have tried this and thought it was too much so perhaps start with one before you get a whole order of 6! read more

Gokul Sweets - Pani Puri stand - Indian Near Me - Decatur, Georgia

I don't know how you could love anywhere else more. I come here when I'm celebrating, when I'm sad, when I'm angry-- doesn't matter. This food will make me smile no matter what. The panEer tikka masala will make you sing. The Mysore masala dosa will have your mouth water. The chole batura is so good I think I shed a tear. The batura was the size of my body. The price is slightly on the more expensive side but it's worth every penny. They have a pani purii by the door. They have a small paan shop. It doesn't get better than this. Anytime anyone from out of town comes, I take them here. You HAVE to try it. The best part is that it's in an Indian complex so you can go experience tHe places around and grocery shop read more

Gokul Sweets - Indian Near Me - Decatur, Georgia

Gokul Sweets is an humble joint featuring vegetarian Indian dishes and various traditional desserts with booth seating. The first location of Gokul Sweets was established in the year 2002. The name Gokul Sweets was derived from Lord Krishna's birth place in the village of Gokul, located in district of Mathura in Uttar Pradesh, India. All Indians missing their delicious sweets from their native country, can feel at home by making them a visit. They have amazing food that will fill your heart with joy. They provide sweets for all occasions and also accept online orders. With more than 200 varieties of delicious sweets, you will be able to purchase products from their web-store and have them delivered directly to your door-step. The quality of services offered to the customers are unique and first class. They provide the best food, with fast and friendly service. Here are some of my favorite dishes that you should try: 1) Wada Pav - Spicy mashed potato ball, dipped in chickpea flour batter and deep fried to perfection, stuffed in an Indian bread topped with our special combination of chutneys. 2) Gokul Special Thali - A serving of three vegetables, three rotis, dal, rice, dessert, farsan, raita, achar and papadoms. Served weekends only. 3) Pav Bhaji - A specialty from bombay of uniquely curried mixed vegetable served with a special Indian bread and finely sliced onions. 4) Pani Puri - Crunchy puries with boiled potato bits, chick peas, moong and topped with a special pani puri masala and served with a tongue tickling tangy flavored mint water. They do have ample free parking in front of their restaurant and it is conveniently located in Patel Plaza. The food is amazing. The service is great. They keep the place very clean. They were very nice and helpful. Kind of a cafeteria/bakery feel but the food is more home cooked. Definitely brings memories of India back every time I eat there. I always walked out of this place with 100% satisfaction. If you are in the area, please do give a try and you will not be disappointed. I will be going back soon to try more from their extended menu. read more

It's a vegetarian restaurant, but you will not feel the absence of any meat--authentic Indian Street Food, delicious and decently priced. The restaurant is packed with tables and people at all times. Great for a quick bite. Also, the paan was awesome. read more

Hard pass. First mistake, ordering South Indian food (masala dosa) at a North Indian restaurant. If you want masala dosa I prefer the cafe inside cherians. They had a weird red coloring inside which looked like hot Cheetos powder. My friend ordered chana bhature, not highly recommend either. She recommended the chaat next door for a better chana bhature. I probably won't come back. I ate maybe a 1/3 of my dosa and threw the rest away. I hate wasting food but I'm not going to force myself to eat that. read more

Lot of options to choose from but only vegeterian. Dont have much to say but food wasnt the best. The place next to it serves better food. Also some menu items are over priced. We tried their hakka noodles, scheuan noodles, manchuria, falooda. None of them were good. Also one of the service guy working there wouldnt listen if you had any questions. Wouldnt recommend this place at all. read more

Worst customer service. Food is not fresh. Check the food before you leave the store. Waste of money.

Really love their food. Eat there about once a month. It is always busy so go before 6pm for dinner or order ahead for take out.

Every time we come to Atlanta we always have to come to buy some yummy yummy sweet from here!very yummy! read more

I do not generally go to Gokul to have a meal. I generally go to buy Sev noodles (they make the best ones in the area). I use the sev noodles at home in place of other things made of grains. I also sometimes buy other snack food or boxes of sweets to take to parties. You really can't go wrong with any of those snack items stacked up along the wall. There are many ways to exploit your tastebuds here. Five stars for the sweets and the snacks. For their vegetarian meal options, three stars. I have eaten here before, but there are other places nearby that get more of my attention. Among their winners are the falooda, the pani puri, dahi puri, and the bhel. I know other people like their dhosa and the uttapham. I have never been a fan of their saag paneer. And for those of you who are into the whole Indo-Sino fusion thing, they do have some "Manchurian" influenced items on the menu, too. read more

Good food , thali and pani puri stall is the best. The food is not to spicy like in other nearby restaurants and are packed and served well. they also have good selection of chaat. Dahi puri and raj kachori are yumm! read more

If you like vegetarian, sometimes clear your sinus spicy, Indian food that good...well... come here! This place is big, it has many items you could eat, I've tried my fair share of stuff: dosa, club sandwich, vada pav, samosas etc and most things are good! Everything isn't great but I feel a solid 4 Stars. My parents also love this place and go here when they come to town. The falooda is some of the best I've had. They have a wide selection of sweets too which I have not really tried except the jilebi and ice cream. It's located near Patel brothers and there is parking but be warned on weekends it gets packed. Lots of other places to try around there too. Go check it out. read more

One of the best Indian restaurants I've ever been too, outside of India and perhaps the UK. I highly recommend it!

Best Indian street food and purely vegetarian food. It is a dream place for vegetarians. If you are looking or craving for Indian street food then you should definitely try this place. The place gets crowded as it is near to an Indian grocery store. Our favorite is Chole Bature and Raj Kachori. The size of the batura is very very big. The Pav Bhaji and Kesar Falooda kulfi are other favorites at this place. They also have a live Pani Puri stand which you can try. They also serve Indian sweets aka Mithai and Namkeens Once you are done with the meal you can enjoy the Pan. Overall a decent place to try Indian street food. read more

This place is located in a the Patel Brothers Plaza, an area with tons of Indian food and goodies! There's a lot of Indian restaurants and places that sell sweets just like Gokul. As soon as I walked in, I was overwhelmed with the amount of food they had for sale at their counter/bakery. So colorful and full of foods that you're able to choose from... so awesome! We ended up going to the counter to order a masala dosa. This thing is huge! I didn't think it would be that big but it was a lot to share for 2 people and we were both full. The dosa is stuffed with curried potatoes and they give you two sauces/soup to dip it with and both are super tasty. Overall, I had a good experience and thoroughly enjoyed the dosa! read more

True to it's name, when you take a step inside gokul sweets, there's just walls of sweets and snacks all over the place. Amazingly I didn't get any of them, but still managed to really enjoy myself. I actually came here because I was waiting on an order next door at Chat Pati, but wanted something to drink while I waited. Customer service was super friendly and not only went through their drinks with me and gave me recommendations, but they were able to custom my drink by leaving seeds out when I bought the Rose Lassi ($2.99). While I waited, I also got an order of garlic naan ($1.87) The Rose Lassi looks like two scoops of ice cream swimming in a cup of rose falooda. Inside the drink also were noodles, which i've never had in a drink, but didn't bother me. This was more of a drink than dessert, but man it was delicious! The garlic naan came with two pieces, was slightly thicker than what i'm used to, and wasn't just a flat piece. Naan here was much softer, thicker, and pretty flavorful! Located next to Chat Pati, in the popular Patel Plaza, anchored by Patel brothers, parking at this vegetarian Indian bakery is pretty easy to find. Getting out of the plaza by car onto Church street is also pretty easy It's another great find with fresh and plentiful flavors with quick and helpful customer service. I gotta try this place again when i'm looking for some more snacks. For now, everything so far has been great! Hopefully that continues! read more

This place is so dirty and run down. Zero ambience! The trash can was overflowing and there is absolutely no maintenance.

The best Indian sweet/bakery and food you'll find in Decatur Georgia. Whenever me and my family come to this side of town this Store is a mess for us.

Terrible food, bad attitude. Why Atlanta people even bother? Dosa and Uttapam batter over fermented. Wada Pav' wada potatoes gone bad. Despite telling the counter there was only shrugged shoulders. And I wasn't asking for replacement. We do not like food wasting, but this all was inedible. read more

great sweets - they have amazing collections and very fresh sweets. However, I am not 100% sure how to rate their cafe - its 100% south indian.

HOWEVER - sweets are GREAT and 5 STAR read more

This is hands down my favorite spot for Indian food in Atlanta. I have been here so many times and the food never disappoints. Make sure you tell them if you don't want it spicy, because everything is made pretty spicy! All the chaats are prepared very similar to the chaats I've had in India. My few favorite dishes are paneer 65, schezuan fried rice, paneer tikka masala, mysore masala dosa, dabeli and the samosa chaat. If you like paneer, you have to try the paneer 65 because it is amazing! I have not tried the sweets, but I do like the kulfis they have in the small freezer. It's usually busy, but it's a laid back place that now has a pani puri stall in case you want to snack on some pani puri while waiting for your delicious meal. I highly recommend Gokul to everyone! read more

Worst Indian fast food place. I ordered paneer tikka masala and garlic Naan. The curry was not fresh and tasted like it was made couple of days ago,and the Garlic Naan is frozen Deep garlic naan which we get in grocery stores. If i want to eat frozen naan I would eat at home , even the frozen naan sucked ,didn't toast or reheat it properly. I DON'T RECOMMEND IT , PLEASE GO TO HONEST Restaurent right beside it. HONEST IS 100% better than this ,in terms of ambiance and food. WORST INDIAN FAST FOOD RESTAURENT IN ATLANTA AREA. THERE ARE MANY OTHER PLACES THAN THIS !!!!!!!! read more

My bf decided to bring me to this Indian place based on his previous experience with his Indian colleagues. This is a very casual Indian dining place. We were probably the only non-Indians in there, but we felt fine since we love Indian food. We walked up to the counter to place our order and found a booth seating while we waited for our orders to get called out. We didn't bring an Indian friend along, so after MUCH thinking and discussing and asking the cashier person, we decided to get these three. Ordered: 1) Gobi manchurian - tastes great at first but then the spice catches up to you and it became TOO SPICY!! We had to eat it with the dahi puri to be edible, but eventually I even dunked it in water to remove surface oils/spices. So beware and/or avoid eating this as your first dish. 2) Dahi puri - a very cool, tasty and refreshing dish to complement the gobi manchurian. The flavor of the yogurt and stuff  was a bit too sweet and flavorful for my bf, and these two dishes caused him to prematurely lose his appetite... 3) Mutter paneer - My bf was disappointed that it was not as tasty as the kadai paneer, which is what he had when he went with his group mates on a previous visit. It was OK, but he thought the peas were oddly still "solid". Our experience may have sounded terrible, but everything is very flavorful, just not in a way that our palate was mature enough to appreciate yet. Our adventurous side got the best of us, and we learned out lesson. We definitely still want to go back there again to try as the food seems very authentic, but with an Indian friend or two. There's a bakery to the side for you to check out some Indian sweets. There's also a small shop attached near the entrance that sells CD/DVDs and other miscellaneous things. read more
