My friends and I love spicy food, and PC made sure to check with us about our spice preference and made sure we were comfortable with it. We really appreciated the attention to detail, especially on such a busy day. (Forgot to take pics since we were hungry) The food and service were both amazing, and PC was incredibly kind, attentive, and accommodating throughout our meal. I also got the Aam Panna, which was so refreshing and the perfect drink to have with our meal. It's always nice to come back to a restaurant where you know you're going to get great food and great service. We had such a wonderful experience and will definitely be coming back again. Thank you, PC, for making our visit even more enjoyable! Highly recommend this place!

We were really excited to try all the different dishes since we kept seeing them on Instagram. But…read morewe're really disappointed when we tried everything. The taste was not authentic Indian flavors, we aren't sure if we came during later hours and the food didn't seem fresh except for the naan that they made fresh for the roll. The service was slow. Again, it was just us in the store. This location is shared jointly with a chicken shack. Unfortunately, we wouldn't be going back again.

Since this restaurant is close to the Rutgers-Newark campus, I frequent this establishment at least…read morea few times during the semester. For my prior visits, I would have given Sigri four stars, but a recent visit was quite disappointing and caused me to leave this three star review. For a recent lunch takeout, I ordered a platter that comes with rice, protein, sauce, salad, samosa, and naan. While placing the order, I had to repeat myself multiple times -- this in itself is not a bad thing, maybe the employee was hard of hearing or maybe I was speaking softer than usual that day. However, the issue was that the employee acknowledged that I requested a garlic naan, but when I opened my takeout order, there was nothing on the naan -- no garlic or butter -- and it was burnt in various places and crispy, rather than being soft and chewy. (I confirmed with an Indian friend that properly made naan is never burnt and crispy.) Although it is too soon to judge Sigri on this one negative experience compared to many positive experiences, I am now hesitant to return to Sigri for lunch. I will give it at least one more go and update with another review at that time. Until then, I can only offer a half-hearted recommendation of this restaurant.

This is my happy place. Such amazing tasty egg dishes are made here. Accompanied by breads and…read moretoasts cooked with real butter. They are open late, so there's always lots crowd in the evening hours. The restaurant has lots of tables. There's some wait time for dining in. Take orders are done within 15-20 minutes during peak hours. My favorites here are Surati Gotala, Egg Curry, Boiled egg and mango lassi. If I take them to go, easily it lasts me 2-3 days to finish couple of them. The masala, sauce, egg, curry all are authentic, made with excellent ingredients. Parking around the restaurant is difficult. Most street parking spots and parking lots are always full. Might have to drive around or park little far to find a spot.

Reasons why I need to take 3 stars away - 1. For marketing…read moreyourself as upscale with NYC prices, the ambiance and experience are definitely not up to par for the price. 2. The quality of the food is very much similar to all the other indian restaurants that are good so not sure they charge 2x the price. Maybe for making some non-creative things like naan pizza - people just want quality and it missed the mark. 3. Service is blah - not what you expect for charging 30-40$ entrees - seems so lazy! It's fine - do what you want - just don't expect return customers.

The food received also was wrong and didn't taste fresh, the chicken was dry and unable to enjoy. I usually always pick up the food because the location itself doesn't call my name to sit down. I get a bit nervous with restaurants that have carpet inside them lol, so I can't speak about a full dining experience.

Came here for lunch with my family and Chatni totally delivered. Their weekday lunch special (12-3…read morePM) is such a steal! $11 per plate, and you get to pick two veggie dishes plus rice. I let our server know the whole meal would be vegan, and he said no problem. We went with chana masala, baingan bharta, mushroom matar, and aloo gobi. All perfectly spiced! Flavorful without setting your mouth on fire (Chatni gets it). They swapped naan for roti (vegan option) and brought out the food fast. I did ask for the chutney and crackers after the meal came out -- last time they served it first, so now I know to request it upfront. No biggie to me! Everything tasted authentic, you can tell they don't cut corners. The decor has that real Indian charm too; idols, warm colors, the whole vibe. It stayed quiet during lunch which was actually nice. And honestly, lunch for two adults and a kid in Montclair for $23? In this economy?? Wild. The food looked and smelled so good we dove right in before taking photos (no regrets). I'll 100% be back, either with my family or solo when I need a good, comforting meal. Chatni's officially in my Montclair rotation!

For me Memo Workend. Used to come here with my insane ex monster years ago. Food was not very good this time. Doughy cracker crusted lamb samosas and tepid white rice and unpleasant naan on the stale side. chai tea had a chewy film on top of the liquid like some sort of skin. Service was atrocious. Horrible. so bad it was almost a joke. i wanted one of the samosas wrapped for home (God knows why). Mr. Casual comes out and i kid you not: cavalierly tossed a sheet of tinfoil at the samosa. i asked "so i just wrap it myself and stuff it in my pocket?" So he left - not to get a container or a plastic bag as asked (rain) but just went in the back to get me off his non-working back with my horrid demands. place was empty. from time i mistakenly entered to time i gladly left. before that he brought out my coke - or was it? a can that said "Bro" on it. And when he sauntered out much later, post-samosa, i had to ask for a glass. I was supposed to slurp out of a can? after eating one doughy samosa and putting the dirty plate on the other side of the table, i watched as he later came to toss the rice bowl and chicken tikka marsala on the table. Doesn't remove filthy dishes (see pic) and i had to say "whoa hold on! Can i have a plate?" Annoyed, he turned to another of the all other empty tables, snatched a table off that and clatter dropped it on my table. Twenty years ago, that would have escalated to more than this post. So bland food and lousy service. Chianti can't ni seem to get either right for. $52. But at least my crazy ex wasn't there - just her irritating spirit,
