Moghul Express serves really solid Indian food overall. I ordered the chicken tikka masala and chicken biryani, and both hit the mark in terms of flavor and portion. The yogurt sauce was a bit of a miss for me, it felt too watered down and would be much better with a thicker consistency. The hot sauce was decent, but not nearly as spicy as I'd expect from an Indian spot. Service, unfortunately, was the weakest part of the experience. I was dining with one other person and there was only one other table of three, yet things moved pretty slowly. There were a few employees around, but the service just wasn't very attentive, and communication was a bit tough at times. They also offer Chinese dishes, which is interesting and something I'd consider trying next time. Overall, the food is definitely worth it, but the service could use some improvement. read more

Tried Moghul Express recently and had a great experience overall. We ordered sweet corn and Manchow soups. I loved the sweet corn soup though Manchow was little spicy as per my taste buds. We also ordered Fried rice and they were really good. For deserts we ordered Rasmalai which was soft and not overly sweet. And fresh lime soda was refreshing and great way to end the meal. The place was clean and well-maintained and the service was good--prompt and courteous read more

Food is generally good here. We had steamed chicken dumplings, express mix noodles, malai kofta and garlic naan. dumplings were served with peanut sauce which is bad combo it needs hot sauce/dumpling sauce, dumpling itself was good but lack of right sauce made it mediocre, Malai kofta and naan were good, Could be better part, we decided to dine in today with family, and it was a mistake, either this place does not have heating or their windows are leaky, every single person dining at restaurant was miserable and had their winter coats on and still not comfortable! Dinning must be comfortable, if not, just limit to takeouts on bad weathers until you've control of situation. Service was equally bad, we had to ask for water, constantly remind of order, we literally had piece meal here that further ruined our experience, our server was on high horse for some reason, absolutely cold, and was not et all interested in his work. I would absolutely not recommend dining at this place during winters, stick to takeouts. read more

The quality of the food has deteriorated significantly, making it the worst I have ever encountered. We ordered catering for a party, and the food was of poor quality. The chicken tandoori had a texture reminiscent of chewing gum, and it was so unpalatable that we were compelled to discard the entire tray. Attached pics! I cannot recommend Mughal Express for catering services; it was absolutely terrible. read more

One of my favorite restaurants! I've been going there as long as I can remember and the info Chinese is SO good. My favorite dishes are the Aloo papri Chaat, Chicken Hakka Noodles, Thai green Curry with veggies and tofu, coriander garlic shrimp. The service is always great here. The staff is very attentive both for seating and takeout. It can get a bit crowded there, so at times it's a bit loud inside the restaurant. Additionally, parking is tight so I'd plan accordingly! read more

When it comes to bold flavors, Moghul Express delivers. From street-food favorites like Aloo Papdi Chaat and Chicken 65 to rich classics like Butter Chicken and Goat Biryani, every bite is packed with authentic taste. And don't forget to end on a sweet note with their Bake Shop goodies! Everyone who works here is kind and courteous. And the ambiance is lovely! read more

For an Indian Restaurant in Edison where there is so much competition, this place is just average, especially when it comes to Indian Entrées. Their snacks and Indo-Chinese dishes are pretty good, but Biryani was a letdown. read more

I just had a very nice quick meal at Moghul Express. I got the Samosa Channa Chaat to start and it was a very good portion. It could easily be a light lunch on its own or an app shared between two or three people with a light appetite. I also got the Mysore dosa which is served with sambar, and a coconut and tomato chutney. I personally love the coconut and the server noticed and kindly gave me an extra serving of it. The restaurant is a good size with a large quick service takeout counter and waiter service for dine in. read more

This place is a consistent hit everytime I go! I've ordered a variety of things each time I've gone: Chaat, Palak Paneer, Lamb Biryani, Chicken Tikka Pizza -- it has all been good! Service is quick and food comes out hot. (I personally found that when I went for lunch, the palak paneer felt a little fresher probably because they just started and the spinach wasn't super duper cooked down - still delicious either way!) Will absolutely be coming back. It's always a successful staple! read more

food was sooo yummy!! and easy seating! we got paneer tikka masala, spring rolls, hakka noodles, mango lassi and butter naan! it all was soo yummy and didn't disappoint! service was quick and responsive! read more

I visited Moghul Express half an hour after it opened on a Sunday afternoon. We were allowed to sit anywhere we wanted and the staff was extremely helpful with the menu. When he saw me looking things up, he came over to explain the menu items and whether or not they were spicy. We ordered the veg samosas, masala dosa, and tandoori paneer makhani pizza. The samosas came out first and they were crispy with a filling that had a nice kick to it. Everything about the masala dosa was really good, from the dosa itself, the insides, and the curry. I also really liked the pizza which looked amazing when it first arrived. The crust was nice and thick and the pizza itself had slices of paneer along with onions and bell pepper. Instead of tomato sauce there was makhani curry (i think) which was a nice replacement. The pizza was relatively large, so i took away the other half to go. We got two mango lassis to go which were really good in the beginning and became quite sweet near the end. I noticed a lot of takeout orders while I was there so it seems to be popular for that. Overall, I really enjoyed my time at Moghul Express and would come back! read more

My go to Indian Restaurant on Oak Tree Road. Has a bit of everything and the food is consistent. Butter chicken, chicken Tikka masala, and Dosa here is very good. They also serve pretty good pizza with a Indian twist !! They do charge extra 3% if you use a Credit card so bring cash to save a little bit of money. Also they have plenty of parking in the front and back of restaurant too. Seating is ample too , you can bring a group here easily and be comfortable. Solid Indian Restaurant whenever I crave it. read more

Pretty standard Indian food...north, south fusion along with indo-chinese. Being on oak tree rd...this has to compete with a lot of Indian restaurants...so having indo Chinese, North Indian and South Indian cuisine all together under one roof along with indianized pizza is a nice edge. read more

My go-to anytime we want to grab Indian food to go. The food is well packed and consistently tastes great.

We were in Woodbridge to meet our cousin and if you are here, of course we will feast ourselves in one of the restaurants from the Mehtani group. (bw they have honored Mehtani by naming one of the streets after that, great to see that) Rightly placed on the oak street where you can find tons of options, We chose Moghul express due to both Indian and Indo-Chinese options, also We did not have much time in hand. We got the table and settled ourselves. it was a weekday evening and it was packed. can't imagine how it would be on weekends. We ordered- 1) Chicken Hakka Noodles - little blunt in taste, but good 2) Veg chili Garlic noodles (we asked for chicken one and asked can they make it without mixing egg due to allergy issues), they could not oblige the request, anyway - it was good 3) Chicken Drums of heaven - finally found the good chicken lollypops. 4) Home-style chicken curry - ( we asked what is their best chicken dish in the main course, and the server suggested this- but nope, I would rate it 2.5/5. 5) Garlic Naan, Lachha paratha, and Tandoori roti - good apart from Chicken (home style) - everything was good. Ambiance- it's good, this is not fine dining though. by giving it a glance, it looks like everything running in an automated way. Service - yeah, it was good too. nothing to complain about there. We also tried their dessert, specially rasmalai and chocolate milk cake. Wow!! I am glad Moghul express coming to the Parsippany area. Welcome..!! read more

Mogul is king of Indian Chinese in NJ . Time tested and consistent , They never goes wrong . Veg Hakka noodles , Chili Garlic fried rice with side of Coriander Garlic chicken & Veg Manchurian gravy . No description or detailed write-up needed . Hakka Noodles , Fried rice and the Chick & Veg gravy ,complemented one another with perfect blend of the sauce , spices and oil . Nothing was overwhelming or overpowering . Appetizing Hot and tasty food served hot in their brightly lit restaurant. Their Oak tree road location also has a Pizza section with variety of Indian toppings . We shared couple of Indian street food dishes Samosa Chaat & Bhel puri. Both were finger licking good . Chased it with Masala soda to wash it all down .. Don't think twice .. Walk in or call to place your takeout order . read more

Tasty fast casual Indian restaurant, which is also connected with a bakery and Papa Pancho's pizzeria. I haven't been by here in a long time, and was pleasantly surprised to see such nice, modern updates to their indoor space. I stopped by for a weekend lunch and it was quite busy! We aren't as familiar with all the menu items, but the servers were friendly and helped answer any questions we had. We actually ordered off the app via the QR code at our table, and everything arrived quickly. Each dish was flavorful, and spice levels can be adjusted to your liking - I especially loved the samosa channa chaat and huge plain dosa, but I'd happily order everything again. Servings were generous and we brought leftover tandoori paneer makhani pizza home, which was still good the day after when we heated it back up. We also got dessert takeout from the bakery (rasmalai tres leches and mango tres leches), and they were fantastic little sweet treats. Looking forward to coming back again! read more

worst food taste butter chicken and biryani (dont know who makes goat biryani sweet and tasteless) ... Please don't go to this restaurant there are many other restaurants. Starters- good, but curry and biryani are not recommended read more

The naan here is unrivalled. You will find no finer naan. So delicate. Everything else I had was pretty good too.

1/1 Ambience; 1.5/2 Food + Beverages; 1/1 Service; 0.5/1 Value My friend and I visited Moghul Express for a no-frills quick snack. The ambience is very casual and family friendly with a spacious, bright, well lit interior. On a Saturday afternoon, the restaurant was really full, but we were still seated and served immediately. The service is fast, efficient, and friendly. We were served within minutes of ordering, so if you're in a hurry, this seems like a great spot to grab a meal. We shared a gobi (cauliflower) manchurian from the appetizer menu. It was the perfect amount of spicy, savory and stickiness, served sizzling hot and fresh. The gobi was soft and well seasoned on the inside, but I wish it was crispier on the outside. Of note, the serving size ran smaller than expected relative to the price ($12). In all, Mogul Express provides solid grub at decent enough prices, and I would definitely come back to try other dishes from a very extensive menu that caters to non-veg and vegetarian eaters alike. read more

Mogul express has to be one of the best places on oak tree road. We actually like it more than Moghul. The pizza shop connected to it has great Desi pizzas. Moghul express has very good butter chicken and malai kofta. I've only done takeout from here so cannot comment on the service. read more

I'm not Indian and rarely eat Indian food, but being from Louisiana, I love my meals to be spicy hot and for it to bite back. Out with two Indian friends we all went here for the first time. The Chilli Paneer Dry was outstanding! Can't say enough about the presentation, ingredients and spiciness. We also shared the Podi Idil, Schezwan Fried Rice Vegetarian, Paneer Makhani, Baingan Bharta, Naan, plain rice and washed it all down with Marsala sodas, plus Madras coffee at the end. I recommend it all. Very good and very fresh. Waitstaff was prompt and polite and the restaurant clean. I recommend Moghul Express to all Indians and non-Indians alike. read more

We've been to Moghul today (had takeout food from here multiple times). We ordered samosa chana chat (good), drums of heaven (must try), chicken fried rice (must try), garlic sauce chicken (average). Lime soda and masala sad were good. The deserts from the bake shop are good too. My favorite is rasmalai tres leches. The service is super quick because they have a wait time about 20-30 mins for any guest. They can start taking reservations to avoid customer wait time. I would appreciate it if the servers don't make us feel rushed to finish food and leave. These are the two things that I wasn't quite pleased with. Other than that, this place has amazing pizzas and Indo-Chinese food. read more

Amazing spot. 1) They have the best modern Indian fusion items ever. 2) I for sure recommend their butter chicken pizza. Amazing! 3) Their desserts are out of this world. Their chai tiramisu, gulab jamun cake, ras malai tres leches cake, and chai Brulé are out of this world. MUST GET/TRY! read more

This is my FAVORITE Indian restaurant! They have amazing North Indian, South Indian, and Indochinese dishes, the BEST mango lassi I ever had anywhere (and I've had many!), and they also have an adjacent Indian sweets bakery on the same premises as well. Food is always fresh and delicious, has that comforting homemade quality, is served in generous portions, and the service is always timely and friendly as well. Highly recommended! read more

Find a better way to make money and not making a fool of your customers. We are used to eating out and 99.99 % of the restaurants charge a convenience fee for a party of 6 or more. Who charges a fee for a party of 4 because in Moghul Express a party of 3 is normal and anything above is a large party. Which average family has 3 people. There's a limit to greed! read more

I used to go to Moghul express in Iselin and found it to be great. Recently they took over a local restaurant on Stelton Road and my daughter took us there for father's day. I had the Tandoori Lamb and my wife had a chicken curry. Both were amazing. Service was attentive, quick and helpful. Bathroom was clean. There used to be a place across the street (a bit) called Sunshine. It was wonderful but when the owner passed away, it took a quality dive and I believe went out of business. Have great Indian food in Piscataway is great, while I can't afford to go crazy at Delhi Express in Edison every week. This is a worthy alternative. I only wish they had the indo/Chinese dumplings that they serve at the oak tree road location. Will definitely be adding this place to our short list of Indian favorites! read more

Coming for 20 plus years still the best place in town!! Not sure how some place can maintain the quality of food.

My daughter has a severe egg allergy. Today, we were at the Mughal Express restaurant in Edison, and I specifically mentioned that my daughter is allergic to egg. Despite this, they served her Hakka noodle dish with eggs. When we asked if it was egg, they insisted it was chicken. However, it was very obviously scrambled eggs. As a result, my daughter had a severe allergic reaction, and we had to take her to urgent care. I was shocked that the manager did not come immediately to address the situation and did not apologize. Our waiter did not provide any assistance or admit fault. Instead, the manager, Nitin, and the waiter argued with us, claiming the eggs were chicken. The only thing the manager did was say he wouldn't charge for the dish. I called him from urgent care, and only then did he apologize. Please be cautious--this restaurant is extremely careless with food allergies. This was a major health concern. read more

I gave this restaurant 5 stars nearly 2 years ago. Now I am giving it two stars. The food is still just as good as it was 2 years ago, but the prices have gone up significantly. I am aware food prices have been going up everywhere, but this restaurant in particular has also significantly reduced their portion sizes. Any non-veg main dish has 3-4 cubes of meat drowned in sauce. That is barely the equivalent of one chicken thigh. The samosa chaat that used to have 3-4 samosas mixed in now has ONE samosa. and the prices have only gone up. I will not be ordering from this restaurant again unless their portion sizes go back up and their prices stop increasing. read more
