First, this review is ONLY for their cooked food not the store nor staff. I go to this store for my own Indian grocery needs but I don't like the food (and I'm Punjabi). A friend ordered food from here as a nice gesture. However, it was very salty and the masala / spices were too overpowering. Again, store is great, people are great, but I would not eat here (or at least eat what was delivered to me) again. read more

I had heard about this spot and visited for the first time recently. I bought a surprise bag from Too Good To Go, containing buffet leftovers. They have parking on both sides of their business: one by the store and the other by the restaurant. There were a few people inside shopping and I picked up my food. I decided to look around the store for a bit, they have a good variety of Indian spices, snacks, cookies and other dry goods. I also bought some veggie samosas for $1.50 each, a good deal. They also had a display case of desserts and pastries. The food I received included rice, chicken tandoori, some curry, and fried bread. The chicken was spicy and tasted good, but some of the rice was undercooked and the curry wasn't great. The samosas were pretty simple but good, and I love the mint chutney and tamarind sauce that come with it. This is a neat place to peruse and pick up some items to cook Indian food. Maybe their lunch buffet is better fresh but I don't think the bag met the anticipated value. read more

This place has both the restaurant and grocery store. My review is on both. First thing on the food, this is more like a quick order style of food but they do have dine in option with lot of tables. The place is kept ok clean, and restroom is maintained ok as well. The parking lot is shared with other stores. Ordered Chicken Biryani and it was prepared quick and tasted okay for a late evening dinner. I see at least 3 other tables were occupied and some of them were regulars and seem to enjoy the food. The Lady does a good job in getting the orders in and handing food out. The Grocery store is definitely a good one and you will feel little congested in the aisle spacing but got all the items you would expect in an Indian store. read more

Ambiance score zero. I've been in nicer dining facilities in Afghanistan. Service..he was there and got our naan which was slightly overcooked. The food wasn't mediocre, it was better than that. But not by much. But the parking was easy. One side note. 3 Americans eating and the server turns on utube tv and goes to the Indiana gangsta rap channel then leaves the room. Seriously dude, the silence was ok with all of us. read more

Price Gouging Terrible pricing. Cashier said $24 for 20lb rice but charged us $26.99. Be aware of no pricing on rice. Don't waste your time asking for the price when they can manipulate the price and charge more plus they ask for a tip when you use a card to pay. read more

This is a little hole in the wall grocery store that sells products, clothing, decor, hot foods and sweets. Mostly to go no sitting area. I was there about 20 min chatting with another patron and their door was constantly opening and closing with people picking up hot food. I tried one of their meals I told him to surprise me. I would recommend trying them. I would love a personal shopper here who can explain their items and how to cook with them. Lots of fascinating items. read more

I decided to stop at the New India Bazaar. I have driven by on several occasions and wanted to review another local restaurant & grocery store specializing in products from India they have an ample selection of dry goods, spices, Himalayan desserts, and frozen foods. They also serve a lunchtime buffet and dinner entree with seating in the back. They are open for 11am-9pm daily.I missed the lunch buffet put took some butter chicken to go, and it was delish. read more

This was probably my most underwhelming experience dining out in Phoenix. I went with the Indian buffet. I appreciated the water having lemon slices, cucumber slices, and mint in a water dispenser. On the buffet was both veg and non-veg items. I went with the Samosa, veggie spring roll, rice pilaf, Chana Masala, Gobi Manchuarian aka Indo Chinese cauliflower, and a daal. Also on offer were Papadam, various chutney, and a salad. Some room for improvements and henceforth the two stars was they had real plates yet had plastic forks and plastic spoons. Adding real silverware would be a much needed improvement. They didn't have glasses because they had styrofoam cups. A much needed improvement would be to have real glasses or real cups. When dining out besides eating low on the food chain aka I follow a plant based diet and have been vegan 25 years I feel eschewing plastic silverware and styrofoam cups is essential to leave a light footprint on Mamma Earth. Had I known that they had plastic cups and styrofoam cups I would have gone elsewhere. I think adding at least one more veg dish to the buffet would have been nice such as aloo aka potatoes or baingan aka eggplant dish. Lastly there was a hiccup. Fresh naan apparently came with the buffet and didn't find that out until I checked out. Would have been nice to get an order of plain fresh naan to begin the meal. All in all I am giving two stars for what I felt could have been better and noted my suggested room for improvements to the restaurant on how to bring its game up several notches higher! read more

Clean quick service buffet that offers above average tastes of India. They do Veteran discount and have a store to check out after eating. Buffet under$15 with a variety of dishes. The locals know of this place. Courteous staff and best goat curry I tried since moving to AZ. Chicken masala verry good, free garlic naan to enjoy. I'll stop back next VA visit. Desert counter is in store, but they did have 3 deserts by buffet. I sopped in around 2 pm and it was still busy. Food is great with veggie and fish options too! I gave menu's to VA after my break. I let them know a mile down street and pricing. They do a variety of dinners too! I'll b back. read more

I like cardamom and ginger in my coffee. I've bought green cardamom pods from many sources. New India Bazaar has the freshest, largest, highest quality cardamom I've found. My family likes cardamom and ginger in their coffee. They do not know why it tastes so good. The service here is Family Human all the way. The sweet selection is vast. The $15 buffet excellent. read more

I ordered chicken tikka masala via Uber eat from new India bazaar. First time visitor, picked up additional items at the market as well to bring home. The portion size of the chicken tikka masala was generous, flavorful. Staff was friendly overall. I'd be totally down to try the buffet Located in the back restaurant in the future. read more

First off the place is no frills for the market, but selection wise it's top tier for at home cooking . The spices are exceptionally priced and they have one heck of a variety in general. Attached to it there's an authentic Indian restaurant/buffet style. It looks delicious and fresh, I have eaten there before but it was owned by a different proprietor.. it definitely had the best tandoori chicken I've ever had ( and I'm a nut case for India cuisine) once I try it again with the new owner I'll update my review. In the market itself they have many many flavors of Indian sweets , excellent prices and phenomenal quality. Their vegetable samosas are 100% delicious and even come with 2 different dipping sauces.. ( tamarind sauce and a green cilantro sauce which is to die for) read more

Absolutely delicious chicken tikka masala! On the spicy side but with garlic naan flatbread very tasty! Good and fast service. read more

The place is not clean on the restaurant side the health department needs to shut it down bathrooms dirty roaches were seen !

The food has good authentic flavor try the tortillas wraps if you want to spice your mouth and it has the strongest green chili and cheese the spring rolls are mouthwatering and the samosas are fill u uppers read more

Tasty Indian food. Recommend takeout. Seating is limited. Smaller grocery store location too.

Best Indian food I have found in Phoenix since living here! I love the paneer tikka masala. Spice level at hot was fantastic too. Love the naan of course too read more

I came here for jumbo samosas and left with desserts too. The store is quaint and the grocery has just enough of what you need. I didn't try the restaurant but maybe next time. I got four random desserts that looked good and loved two and the others were harder and sweeter than I thought they'd be. I'd definitely recommend them for desserts and jumbo samosas. They also had some fresh samosas for take out for $1. I would have loved to try them if I hadn't just eaten. read more

Go here for their samosas and kachori. It is just $1 each and tastes so good. It is an Indian store with a restaurant at the back as well. We usually go here for snack items including sweets. Never tried food in their restaurant but prices are so damn reasonably here for everything. I would highly recommend this place. Don't expect a very welcoming greeting from the uncle at the counter but they are nice people. The store is small and very congested, however, they have so many things to be considered. read more

Food was amazing. Cannot wait to go back. We had the garlic naan with our dishes. Great family environment and service. Everything was made fresh. Only feedback was wishing the naan came out with our main dishes but it was worth the wait. read more

New Management! (If you know, you know). Went there for dinner tonight and had the paneer tikka masala and it was delicious. The customer service was excellent. The lunch buffet isn't open yet, but the nice gentleman said soon. Word on the street is it's the old Owners of Flame of India on 16th St. And I'm so happy they're back. 10/10 will come back for dinner and lunch. read more

I would like to start by saying , this place feels like a home ! The atmosphere just gives u mom and pop and it felt great ! And The food was soooooo damn good! I got the butter chicken spicy ! And when i say that baby had a KICK to it! I was so surprised because i love spicy ! The garlic not was perfect , airy and flavorful! Also y the service the sweat young lady up front was so kind , and helpful! I think i just found my weekly spot !!! read more

The young woman checking me out looking me in my eyes and shorted me on my change, giving herself/the business a two dollar tip. There were old and empty food containers on the counter, which was off putting. To top it off there was hair (something like an eyelash) in my main entree so I tossed it and my naan was undercooked. Visit to see the ambience beforehand, if I had, I would not have ordered. I unfortunately paid in cash so I can't dispute this regrettable trip. read more

Love this place! Food is always great and prices are decent! Small grocery in the front and restaurant in the back!

Came here again looking for sweets late one night, did not disappoint. Still haven't given the restaurant a try but it's on my to do list. Indian food just intimidates me and I haven't worked up the courage to try it. Our all time favorite jalebi is still as good as I remember. I imagine it tastes identical to the tea cups on the original Willie Wonka movie; delicately crisp and crunchy on the outside but as soon as you bite, gooey sweet syrup floats everywhere. They have a brown sugar one and a regular sugar flavor. The brown sugar one has a stronger flavor, very similar to raw honey. We walked away with a half pound of each. We also tried barfi, they have so many flavors. If you have tried Mexican jamoncillo candy, it's basically the same thing but less sweet. It's made from condensed milk and sugar like jamoncillo is. The store clerk was very friendly and courteous, we took our sweet time looking at all their grocery items and candy and not once did he make us feel rushed or unwelcome. I was so happy that they have indigo dye, it's half the price of what I get it for from amazon, that in it of itself is enough to make the drive here worthwhile. Can't wait to go back for more jalebi. Maybe next time we will try the food as well. read more

Tiny shop in a strip mall close to downtown Phoenix They have a few groceries, Indian spices and other Knick knacks the deli sells fresh samosas, kachori and an impressive variety of Indian sweets like jalebi, milk cake, fancy variations of gulab jamun, kaju roll etc which one cannot find anywhere else in the valley. They also operate a small restaurant next door where you can buy curries by the oz starting from $4.99 (which is unbeatable price wise) I have tried a lot of the items some of them are good while others are just okay The chicken tikka Masala was very mediocre. One thing I will say is order ahead they are very slow and I have had to wait on numerous occasions even after placing my order well in advance Customer service is not great and I feel the store could be cleaner They sell Indian pizzas which are quite delicious Cheers! read more

DoorDash lunch..... absolutely delicious. I enjoy India food but a good restaurant is hard to come by. I have to say I'm in a happy place with todays lunch !!! Mouth is popping with flavor read more

The prepared food side of the place has delicious basic fare. Lots of vegan options. Some things are far too spicy for me, so if spicy is your thing, you'll be very happy. Samosas are $1and they have an inexpensive buffet. The thing that pushed my review to 5 stars is the grocery side. The aisles are filled with spices, preserves, seeds, nuts, pickled things,dried beans, dried fruit, grain, snacks and household goods. they have health goods like oils, otc remedies, skincare, balms and henna. They have frozen veggies and fruit too. I like the frozen breads. The last and most interesting area of the store is the sweets counter. They have different kinds of milk based fudge in so many flavors. They have sweets made of cheese or beans, or grains, or carrots soaked in cardemom syrup or sweet rosewater. My favorite Kaju is made of cashew flour and simple syrup. read more

Very Small Portion Of Food For 20 Dollar & I Ordered A Mango Lassi It Was So Watery !!!! Do Not Recommend This Place At All !!!

This is one of my favorite Indian places in Phoenix- I have been ordering a lot of Indian food through Postmates recently and I must say, this one is the one I keep coming back to. The food items are consistently delicious and affordable. I keep coming back to the Tikka Masala curry! They provide good spice and generous portions. read more

For the market side alone, it has most anything you could want to prepare your own Indian food, except for meats and vegetables. Some really interesting items and fun to browse. They did not disappoint by having paneer, fenugreek, curry leaves and multiple chutneys. I do not know about the restaurant side. Service seems to be an issue. The younger man was reasonably helpful, although not overly enthusiastic, and an old man was helpful but quite distant. Maybe not warm and fuzzy, but it worked. I understand the food service may be entirely different. read more

New India Bazaar is my go to Indian grocery shopping place in Phoenix. They also have hidden indian restaurant in the back and make really good indian street snacks, sweets and curries. I love their samosas and aaloo tikki chaat. They have recently renovated the restaurant under the new management and take proper care of hygiene. Owner is very respectful, friendly and always ready to help you find whatever your mom wrote on your grocery list read more

I don't understand why the men working here, with customers and food, feel that they don't need to wear masks. They are also incredibly rude and the food takes so long. There are better Indian restaurants in the valley. read more

New India Bazaar - No mask at register - Grocery Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

This place is pathetic. They reuse old leftover food to cook food just to save some money and don't bother about customers getting sick because of that. I was eating homemade fresh food from last couple of days but one friend got samosas from this place. Samosas taste wo so pathetic and clearly looked like potato filling inside was not fresh and few days old. Me and my wife were so hungry that we still ate that samosa. I didn't get a good feeling after eating that and next morning only we both got sore throat / body ache / fever / tummy upset. Thank god our kids refused to eat those samosas and they are healthy. I am 200% positive it happened because of samosas from this store. I used to like their sweets but i would never go to this store in future for sure and highly recommend others (specially my friends) not to go to this store. read more

Mmmmm curry. I stopped in to this place by accident. Honestly, I was looking for another restaurant and found it was no longer in business. Driving up the 7th Street Corridor in Phoenix, I found New India Bazaar. When I get the urge for curry I have another go to Indian food place but it always left me with heartburn. Not New India Bazaar. Don't let the outside deter you from trying this place. The strip bar next door is de classe but the food here is worth it. I was excited to see that they had a lunch buffet with several options. Butter chicken, tandori, curry, masala, curried black lentils and curry chickpeas, fragrant white rice and Nann all you can eat for the low price of $10. I'm adventurous and like to try all the various options so i pile some rice in the middle of my plate and add the various options on the side. Chicken in all the options was moist and flavorful except the tandori. I found the tandori chicken dry. The nann was delicious and warm. Nann is constantly being made fresh. There was a second buffet with dessert options that I did no try. I have been back once and still find the food tastey without the heartburn. If you're into fine dinning and frills and thrills keep driving. This place is all about the food. The service is okay. They ask you if you're dinning in or to go, take your money and get you on your way. read more

Four stars based purely on the paneer tikka pizza. It's a great fusion pizza and I was pleasantly surprised by how well all the flavors blended together! One star removed bc unfortunately I did order a side of paneer tikka masala and it was not good at all. Another review mentioned the consistency and flavor being that of a salty tomato soup and I have to agree. This pizza though.. so good, will def order it again! read more

Worst Indian food ever.. if I could give negative star I would.. I was traveling from Chicago with my whole family and llittle kids and we were all starving and could eat anything but this food.

Overall we slept hungry after spending 87.50 USD for 3 adults.. thankfullly I tasted the food myself before giving to my toddlers , this food could make them sick. read more
