We ordered takeout over the phone from this place this past Wednesday; butter Chicken (mild), Palak paneer (mild), and a bread basket with 1 garlic naan, 1 plain naan and a paratha. Before I ordered over the phone, I checked online and saw that we would get a free dessert with the entrees. However, we didn't get it when we ordered over the phone. The bread basket/ order we got was 1 garlic naan and 2 plain naan. We didn't receive the paratha; not sure what happened. The food was alright. The chicken in the butter Chicken was tough not tender but the sauce was good. Palak paneer was good. The garlic naan didn't have much garlic taste; it had more cilantro than garlic. I was excited to orderfrom this place because we ordered food from them before. I was a bit disappointed this time. I think the food could have been better. read more

Manhattan Valley Indian Restaurant - Indian Near Me - New York, New York

Random walk-in to try their lunch buffet on a Sat afternoon got us here. Old skool Indian restaurant; dated interiors, old bar that still serves Indian classic cocktails, and a buffet that surprisingly manages to justify its $21 price tag (half-priced for kids under 6). Poonam, our hostess got us seated and we went straight to grabbing our food, Their buffet selection was limited, but felt perfect. Snacks included Samosa's and Chicken Pakoras with a tasty green chutney, and mains focused on dependable classics like Aloo Gobi, Saag Paneer, and a rather bland Dal Makhni. They had one Indo-Chinese mains - Fish Chilly, and non-veg mains included Chicken Tikka Masala, Goat Curry, Chicken Kali-Mirch. They also had Biryani Rice and Choley Bhature, but the Bhatura's were very thick and disappointing. They served naan and rotis on the table and the staff was friendly. Restaurant had a good amount of foot traffic throughout our stay! Will definitely be our local go-to-Indian restaurant in the neighborhood! read more

We came to manhattan valley to celebrate Diwali with our friends. It's a small and quiet restaurant, mostly families enjoying dinner. The service was great and the staff was super friendly. We started with the vegetable samosas which were delicious because it wasn't too veggie. The salad had a great dressing with a light kick. I ordered the shrimp tikka masala and the sauce was perfect, not too creamy. It came was 5 large pieces of jumbo shrimp. For dessert, the staff sang happy birthday to my daughter with a plate of pistachio kulfi. That was surprisingly so yummy and the mango as well! read more

I was invited here by a friend and a loyal customer. He is Indian, and said this is one of his favorite spots, that represents comfort food. Of course he also explained that this is Americanized Indian cuisine, but it's still wonderful. We came for the lunch buffet, and the choices were amazing. I couldn't take pictures out of respect but I can tell you everything was delicious. My favorite was an appetizer fried chicken pieces and of course the goat. I would definitely return. Also, the staff is caring and the restaurant is cozy and well spaced. read more

Met a friend at this lovely, cozy restaurant for their Indian lunch buffet, which was only around $20. The place was spacious, full of artwork, along with a very peaceful ambiance. For my drink, I inquired if they have Rose Lassi, and they made it for me. It was too much artificial rose flavor. I should have stuck with Mango Lassi. The buffet had a little bit of everything: Crispy fish, lamb, chicken, goat, mixed vegetables, lentils, curry potatoes, spinach with paneer cheese, samosas, naan bread, chickpeas with poori (puffy), biryani rice, as well as 3 desserts, including Indian Vermicelli (thin, sweet noodles in a creamy, milky, syrupy soup), Gulab jamun, and rice pudding. I really enjoyed the taste of each dish, especially the lightly breaded and perfectly crunchy fish, the tender and well seasoned lamb, fresh veggies, and the soft, fluffy, still warm poori. Out of the dessert, I liked the vermicelli best. I found the Gulab Jamun to be overly sweet, though the balls were well made and just the right consistency. Service was good. Our waiter was welcoming and on top of it, making sure we were well taken care of during our time here. read more

The smell of authentic Indian incense and spices hit our noses upon entry. The calming and inviting atmosphere was immediately welcoming. Our table was in a corner with each dinner linen folded to perfection at each place setting. We shared many dishes for the table including chutney Raita, Pakoras, garlic shrimp, Barry Kebab, Lamb biryani, Malabar (salmon) Fish Masala, basmati rice, garlic naan (baked to perfection). All of the sauces for each dish were creamy, rich, flavorful, with just enough spice to savor every bite. The drinks were incredible. Mango margarita was smooth and delicious. The spicy mango margarita was made to order and spicy how I like it. And the Sauvignon blanc was crisp and dry for dinner. Delicious. Always a guarantee at Manhattan Valley. Always. read more

The food was delicious and it was a good amount for lunch. The service was great, the hostess was the main person that we saw and she was super nice especially since we were with a baby. The ambiance was better inside, the tables were really nice but the tables were a little cramped. We had to move the table a little to be able to sit properly. read more

The ambiance was great. They had warm lights, flowers, and cute paintings. The service was also pretty great, I went alone and the server kept coming to ask how the food was which I appreciated. The food itself was pretty good. I am used to authentic food so it wasn't perfect. If I could change something, it would be the Chicken Tikka being cut into smaller pieces and less sweetness in the curry. read more

Delicious food, good service, and a comfortable atmosphere. They will also accommodate spicy hot level.

This spot offers an experience more valuable than most. Service - very good - friendly and attentive. The prices are fair for what you receive. Five stars seems like underrating this remarkable place. Another experience is completely necessary. read more

The lunch buffet was not tasty at all. The people are nice - but the chicken tikka had a sweet ketchup flavor YUCK! The dal was watery and they didn't even have yogurt in y he condiments. I would save your money and buy the Trader Joe's frozen - much better. Service was fine but don't bother with this buffet read more

Manhattan Valley is a great Indian restaurant on the corner of 100th St and Broadway. The ambiance was wonderful, with upscale decor and large tables with white table cloths. It's the perfect spot for a date night or a nice family dinner. We ordered: - Lamb Chops ($22.95+) - Chicken Tikka Masala ($16.95+) - Naan Bread ($3+) The food was well-presented, tasty and reasonably priced. I loved the naan, but the rice that came with the Chicken Tikka Masala was nice, too. If you're looking for a solid Indian place in the neighborhood, I would highly recommend it. read more

Really fragrant curries, soft naan, and great value! The server was very nice and the ambience is cozy.

I have only had delivery from here, but the food was so good, I can only imagine how much better it could be eating at the restaurant. Absolutely everything I have had there has been exceptional. Being a traditional list I enjoy dishes such as Buna goat and goat stews, and I would put these against any similar dish I have had across the country. The bel pouri is also exceptional, especially if one adds more tamarind sauce. The vegetable dishes we're all notable, especially the bengen barta. This place is a must go (well, must order)! read more

Delicious food. Good portion size. Friendly service. Reasonably priced. Highly recommend.

I got delivery, which was pretty quick and with large portions. However, the chicken tikka masala that I ordered was subpar and oddly enough, sweet... being a South Asian, I've had my fair share of chicken, tikka masala, and it is never sweet. I have leftovers, though I don't know if they're edible without reheating them on the stove / adding some ingredients to cut the sweetness. Overall, kind of disappointing :/ read more

My family and I have been regulars at multiple iterations of this Indian restaurant. The food has always been excellent as was the service, until tonight. I walked into the restaurant, where all but one of the tables were empty, at 9:15 pm. They close at 10 pm. As the waiter tried to seat me at a small, blind from the street, table and while handing me the menu he said "You know we close at 10 pm, and waited there while I ordered. My food was out by 10:27 pm and the bill was paid by 10:47 pm. This is not the way a struggling neighborhood business should treat loyal customers as they're trying to recover from the pandemic. I love the food, I want to support local businesses. I don't want to be expected to tip 25% when it is made known to me that my presence isn't welcome. read more

I came here at the suggestion of an associate who said the food was very much worthwhile. I was hesitant at first, considering the number of disappointing Indian food options in the neighborhood, but decided to risk it. The day before a major event, I ordered a lunch special with a friend. I knew that I wanted to try their lamb and garlic naan. For lunch, there is an assortment of options from a buffet although you can also order a la carte items well. I went with the lamb kali mirch lunch special which included rice, side vegetable, dal, chutney and naan. There is an additional fee if you prefer the garlic naan over plain. My lunch buddy opted for the lamb curry. Both dishes were delicious, filling, and had a decent--but tolerable-- spice level. They also offer vegetarian dishes. The flavor of the food is delicious and authentic as far as that the vegetables were clearly fresh and thoughtfully prepared. Their takeout packaging is reusable and more than appropriate. Best of all portions are generous, and the price point for the quality is adequate. I'm so glad that I got over my initial hesitation!! This place is legitimately good. read more

Had the lunch special $14 incl. appetizer, main entree, nan & dessert. Started with papadam and 3 dipping sauces (also part of the special). My partner & I both chose the vegie samosas. Beautifully presented on a bed of lettuce in its own metal serving dish. They were hot and yummy. Next my order tandoori chicken tika, lentils, curry vegies, small salad, rice & roti. Presented in a metal tray. My partner had tika masala & plain naan. Lots of food. My first piece of chicken was very tough. The other 2 were much better. I informed the server that this was a problem. The rest of the food was very good. I chose the ginger ice cream. Very hard but tasty. The gulab was warm, small and singular. Overall had lots of leftovers which we doggy bagged home. I had been a previous customer a few years back. Looks like new owners will win me back. read more

First time here & I loved this place for many reasons. We got carry out last night & they packaged everything so perfect, they gave us plenty of sauces & we're very generous on the portions. The food was phenomenal. They have a takeout deal which is at a fantastic price for what you get. Staff was friendly & although we did takeout the inside the restaurant was beautiful. I loved everything about this place. read more

REALLY BAD EXPERIENCE & I'll never repeat it. I came for a lunch special just one minutes pass the 3:00 pm and he came to me 10 minutes later and ask for my order. I said I came for lunch special he said the chef already left!! another chef just came and you have to order from main menu. I said Ok while I already set there why not give it a try. I got Chicken masala and it was like Sweet Chicken I feel like I'm eating candy never enjoy or have that MASALA feeling and taste. I asked him again excuse me sir why is it sooo sweet he said oh you want it spicy?!! I said not really spicy but I'm talking about how taste is. He then take it back with zero change but make it more spicy and uneatable I didn't even take a two bits and he was looking at me I thought he may ask again but never do it! he went to another lady setting next to me and asked her if everything was OK. I was really disappointed but I said ok one time to make you far from this restaurant and cost you $21 for nothing it's a moment to forget. I cleaned my hand then go to him trying to tell him what he needs to make it perfect or at least he understand what I felt. YOU KNOW WHAT HE Immediately respond? He said Ok sir tell how you want next time and I do it for you that was the only words and left. All I can say stay away from this restaurant there's alot of others is waaaaay better and more respect to costumers. Note: The appetizer was way better than the main dish read more

On a rainy day, lunch at Manhattan Valley was the perfect choice. The windowed space is quite roomy and bright. We were so pleased with the lunch special, served on a metal platter, something like a bento box. The Vegetable Samosas, Lamb Vindalu, Chicken Tikka Masala, side vegetable and lentil dishes were all delicious. The pistachio & mango kulfi topped it all off. Making it a definite recommendation was the service which was very attentive and friendly. Oh, didn't mention what a deal the lunch special ($12.95-14.95) is, can't beat it! read more

A very solid, reasonably priced Indian spot. Was pleased by their lunch special offerings, and wow was I impressed. The food was nicely packaged, hot, and soo flavorful.

My fiancé got the chicken toma masala lunch platter. I can't wait to try something else next time! read more

A good value lunch special, especially for this area. For $14 you get a large to-go container with chicken tikka masala or curry, rice, chicken samosa or salad, 2 vegetables of the day, nan bread, and a shot glass of smoothie for dessert. It's all pretty good, not spicy, and reheats well. Plus I don't have to call since I get a discount for ordering on their website and their system works. read more

Delicious food ! I have enjoyed this food on two separate occasions, & it was quite good. My dear friend hosts a lovely Christmas dinner at her west side home, and 2015 Xmas dinner was entirely from this Indian restaurant. (In past years my friend has cooked a home-made, delicious, dinner; this year was a FUN change & really wonderful & delicious as well. All the guests LOVED THE FOOD. The appetizers were great!!! I'm sorry, I can't recall the names, but all were really good. There were many dishes, but I can only remember the name of one dish, & I loved it--The Chicken Tikka Masala. I loved the assorted breads that were ordered. There was a shrimp dish in a same color, light sauce as the color of the sauce in the chicken tikka masala dish. I love garlic, so I enjoyed the garlic naan, & all the breads. All of the assorted sauces were OUTRAGEOUSLY DELICIOUS!!!! I love cilantro, & the green sauce was great. Another fav sauce was the sweet & hot reddish sauce--might be tamarind, but I'm not sure. Just The other night, enjoyed a spinach & chick pea dish, & once again, the Chicken Tikka Masala. & Garlic Naan. Although, at Xmas dinner, it seemed like there was more garlic on the naan. The rice with the dishes is very good--basmati rice. SEE MY PHOTOS. I love this chicken tikka masala dish very much-- yummy good. Love the sauces. Eventually, I will dine inside the restaurant, & I look forward to that experience. Note: This restaurant used to be called "Indus Valley", but is now called MANHATTAN VALLEY. You can see other reviews on that listing too. I recommend this restaurant called Manhattan Valley. I look forward to a meal inside the restaurant. I know the take-out has been great. Enjoy!! read more

Came here to meet a friend on a hot day during their all you can eat lunch special. If you can't do spicy food, this is not the time for you to come in. I had to try stuff and figure out what I could and could not eat. The naan was plentiful, though & it was yummy. I also didn't like the lack of air conditioning on a hot day but the ambiance inside was very nice and it seems like it'd be a nice date spot if you went in the evening on a cooler day. The staff we interacted with was friendly and they were on top of the water glasses. I didn't get to choose from the full menu and I'm somewhat particular so I can't evaluate that. As far as I know, my friend didn't have any complaints. read more

Ordered food for delivery here. The food is soooooooooooo good. They offer 4 different types of sauces. White sauce, green sauce, a chutney and a dark red very sweet type of sauce. Tandoori lunch platter, let's you pick an entrée, with vegetables of the day, daal, rice and naan/roti. THAT IS A LOT OF FOOD FOR $11. The food was 20 mins late, but that wasn't too much of an issue considering the quality and quantity of food you're getting. I'd order again. read more

Came here for a weekend brunch buffet. 2-3 meat dishes, 2-3 veggie dishes, salads, samosa and naan and rice and desserts. Even if it doesn't seem like a whole lotta choices, the food is super high quality. I love this fried onion snack which tastes very crispy and does not has any of the stinky raw onion smell at all. Nice choice for brunch if u r into indian. You can order off the menu as well during weekdays but buffets is weekend only. read more

This restaurant is in my neighborhood and I was so upset to learn that the restaurant owes $700,000 in wages to its employees. Former workers protested today against rampant wage theft.

Manhattan Valley Indian Restaurant - Photo posted by twitter user on Nov 14 2019 - Indian Near Me - New York, New York

If you love Indian food and buffets, this place is a dream come true for you. They have all the popular Indian dishes like tiki masala and naan bread. My favorite was the chili chicken, it was sweet and spicy and salty and so good with the basmati rice. They even have dessert (although I have had better in other places). With the price and to have all the unlimited food, it is definitely worth it! What they need to work on their hospitality, the layout and seating. We were seated near the bathroom and they seated someone right next to us where it would be tight coming in and out. There were so many open seats available (no reserved signs) that they could easily spread all their customers to make them more comfortable to move in and out. Since they have brunch, you would expect they might have some standard brunch/breakfast drinks like regular coffee, but they did not. This is definitely an authentic Indian place with all the authentic food and drinks for a great price! read more

Yum :) got take out from here - naan was great, chicken tikka was delicious. Prices were reasonable!

Delicious food, one of the best mango lassis I have ever had and great service all at a reasonable price!

Poor experience with order. Manager unhelpful. I live on the UWS, and I will stop ordering from Manhattan Valley. You've lost a lifetime customer because you were unwilling to fix a simple issue. read more

Food is subpar, mains are sweet and the fish curry was foul, bad smelling. There was no manager available for any feedback.

Impeccable service and delicious food! Clean and spacious for our graduation lunch. The naan was brought out quickly and food was served in record time. Malai kofta and chicken tikka masala were my favorite. Bathrooms were clean. Thank you for the complimentary dessert abc the wonderful experience for our momentous occasion. Truly delightful in every way. Yeehaw read more
