This review comes from a New Yorker who has had his fair share of Indian food. Living in Jackson Heights, working near "Curry Hill," I can safely say this was some of the best Indian food I've had in NYC. Ingredients were fresh, spices were flavorful and enhanced both of my dishes (Chana Saag & Kadai Chicken), and delivery was fast to Park Slope. Will definitely be ordering from these guys again! read more

My friend and I stopped by to get takeout. Nice place. Smelled amazing even before we stepped in. The staff was kind and the waiter bagged and brought our order outside. We got the potato samosas and I got the samosa chaat, both of which tasted great. I'm not sure what I expected for the samosa chaat but it did not disappoint. We both got Tikka Masala dishes, she got chicken and I got paneer. Probably the best paneer I've tasted as a vegetarian that really likes Indian food. It was actually really flavorful and had a nice bite to. The garlic naan is incredible too. The service was fast. Took one star off because the waiter forgot to give us forks and napkins. Otherwise would recommend, just make sure to ask for utensils. read more

Always great. Food has a lot of flavor and they can turn up the heat if you ask. Give this place a try.

The food was absolutely delicious. The place was extremely clean, great interior design and vibe was laid back. Staff was attentive and polite. We had the three dishes from the vegetarian menu, the chicken tika, and mango chutney. EVERYTHING WAS AMAZING! Definitely coming back! read more

Granted I only tried a few appetizers but finally delicious Indian food in the Crown Heights/Prospect Heights area. Welcome to the neighborhood! Very happy you're here. Can't wait to come back for dinner soon. read more

Dine in. A life saver in this area - top notch Indian. This place just opened and they aim to please. 3 things set this place apart: 1 large portions. We had a samosa appetizer which came with 3 samosas and dipping sauces (mint, tamarind, tomato, all spicy). The 1 order of garlic naan was enough for 2. We were full after each having an entree. 2 the food is spicy and flavorful. Chicken korma and lamb rogan josh are not known for their heat but had a pleasant tingle. 3 25% off if you dine in. Whole meal was 30 bucks! Service was excellent and attentive. They are really focused on the customer experience. We got free soup and dessert. Again, 30 bucks for 2! They have a price fixe if you take out which comes with an entree, naan, and an appetizer for 15.95. This place is the bomb read more

Best Indian place in the area. Food is delicious, people are nice. We mostly order take out as we live closeby and it's always ready in 15 minutes. The Samosa Chaat is to die for. The Naan breads are delicious, definitely try the almond one. read more

Food was good, especially enjoyed the Lamb Cochin, which was very flavorful and something different than standard indian restaurant fare. The staff is friendly, and really went out of their way to make sure we had a good time. No liquor license yet, but they let us BYOB and even brought out fresh glasses when we switched from red to white wine. They're doing a 50% off grand opening special, so dinner for 4 people with three appetizers and desert came out to around $40! At those prices it's an ridiculously good deal, and still seems reasonable at full price. read more

I ordered delivery from here. My food was over an hour late, and any attempts at contacting the restaurant were in vain. I eventually had to contact seamless, and even THEY could not get ahold of the restaurant, as they had closed before the order ever arrived. I HIGHLY recommend against ordering delivery from this restaurant. No idea how they have such a high rating everywhere - perhaps eating in is a different experience. read more

Love me some Nimbooda! This place is pretty new and it unseated India Place for my number one Indian restaurant in the neighborhood. I am a creature of habit so I pretty much only get chicken tikka masala. Finally! Chicken that is not rubbery and without unexpected chunks of fat glommed on! Sauce that is of excellent consistency, perfect temperature (if you go to the physical storefront, of course), and wonderfully tasty! All I have to say is this place was cool enough to abet my celebratory rave after finishing the bar exam; we BYOB'd champagne and the waiter provided us champagne flutes and helped us make mango lassie-mosas! Made my boyfriend's b-day delicious, too! read more

Food was absolutely amazing. Fresh, aromatic, full of flavor but not overpowering. We had the samosas, cauliflower (must have), okra and eggplant to start. As our main we shared the tandoori mix with lamb, chicken and salmon. Lovely quiet setting with nice background desi tunes. It was perfect. Will come again!! read more

Came for a nice evening out with the wife and stumbled upon this nice little Indian restaurant in Brooklyn. As soon as we stepped in we were greeted and seated right away. The waiter was very professional and made sure we had everything we needed. The food was exquisite and definitely one of the best I have ever had. The chef is very talented and will definitely come back again read more

Great food. Excellent quality and flavor , whether you like your food spicy or mild. However delivery time has consistently disappointed. Need to provide an accurate ETA or show up when you are supposed to. Showing up after an hour for a 30 minute ETA is not ok. Again, food is great, one of the best Indian options in Brooklyn. But need to work on delivery logistics. read more

This is my go to Indian restaurant. Everything is delicious, always hot, delivery is on time, and they give you plenty of mint sauce. The Manchurian Cauliflower is amazing! read more

Love this place. Have eaten both at the restaurant and ordered delivery and the quality has never been less than consistently excellent. These guys have some of the best Saag Paneer out there. The service is attentive without being overbearing and the BYOB policy is great. Hot tip: the bathroom has blue lighting and is great for moody selfies. read more

At last a quality Indian in the area! I went for a meal with 2 friends on a Sunday night and we were beyond pleased with our meal. I had the paneer tikka masala and chana saag with rice, plus naans and chutneys. The food was so so SO delicious! Honestly I can't wait to go back, my mouth is watering haha. Also the staff accidentally made us the wrong dish but they insisted we keep it in addition to our other dishes - such a nice gesture. They were all very pleasant and attentive and kept our water topped up (it's BYOB so we bought a bottle of wine). Also the decor was lovely and the atmosphere was very relaxed and warm. So happy to have found this gem and will be taking my family when they visit next month! read more

just some okay flavor, kinda sweet, sort of like something u wld like to heat up at home. in this neighborhood it seems typical.

Had the aloo gobi special. Id say overall the food was fine the delivery was fast enough. The food was a bit spicer than I would expect when choosing the levels so just watch out for that if youre really sensitive to hot foods. I wouldnt say this place is a must visit when youre in the area. I think there are better places around but if youre craving indian food then it works. read more

I often order food from here and am usually very happy with their fish tika --although the portion is quite small. Vegetables with paneer as a side are also yummy. And their yellow lentils are delicious but have recently been watered down a lot so are almost like a soup... read more

I ordered the chicken tikka masala, paneer tikka masala, and garlic naan for delivery. First, the two masala curries tasted completely different! Second, the garlic naan was not a good value given its small size. I would give a 3.5 if possible, but will round up. read more

Was wandering past on my way elsewhere and saw that they just opened (they were literally still installing some shelving as I was being served), so I decided to give it a try. Solid Indian food, friendly and helpful staff, and decent/average prices (particularly great price with 50% off for the grand opening). I live in the neighborhood, so chances are high that I'll be back. read more

Worst delivery ever. 1.5 hour late, "The driver just left" 3 times on the phone, and drenched wet food. I understand if the weather is bad and the delivery will be held up, tell me that instead of lying and saying that food is 5 minutes away. Also, perhaps a waterproof bag for rainy days? My food was soaked and inedible by the time it got to me. On top of that, portion sizes were small. Awful experience. Never again. read more

Have eaten here four times already..they def know what the are doing - this is their second restaurant - first is in Williamsburg near the bridge. Fresh ingredients, excellent service, delicious food, and very reasonable prices make this place a winner and I'm very thankful we now have a top notch Indian place around! read more

Found this little gem right on Bergen St off Washington and I must say I give this place a full 5 stars. Service is great, food is awesome, and ambience gives off a nice and intimate feel yet comfortable with great music and nice decor. Definitely recommend trying this place out. read more

Small, dark, quiet place. Food was very good ! Mango lassi was perfect! It's close to the Brooklyn museum and botanical gardens so next rim I'll make a family day out of it. read more

Really good chicken curry. Dahl was poorly spiced with way too much cinnamon. Nan bread was excellent. BYOB a great idea. Good service.

I was very excited to order from Nimbooda after reading the reviews. However, I am very disappointed with the quality of the food I received. The malai kofta was great but the samosa was bland and the saag paneer was the worst food I've ever ordered. The sauce was overcooked, the paneer was hard and I ended up throwing out the dish instead of eating it. I will not be ordering from this restaurant again. read more

My new favorite Indian place in the neighborhood. Love the eggplant chaat! Have taken a few people here and all loved it too. So happy I can order from them any time! read more

This Place was great. The food was really good...the atmosphere was cool...and VERY clean...and our server was great as well. This is definitely on top of my list for an Indian Food chill spot.....very good for weeknight dinner and you just wanna chill with a friend or 2 read more

This place is a gem. If you check in, they give you free mango lassis (and they definitely don't skimp on the amount! They're delicious and plentiful). Thank you to our waitress Annie for your kindness and helpfulness when we had questions. The food is great and pretty fair-priced; good portions, too! Would recommend as a date spot. And it's B read more

Mediocre at best, but they did give us free dessert which was tasty enough. Place was empty when we went. Also they charge extra for nan bread. read more

Best Indian i've had of late. Get the mushroom appetizer! The paneer was fresh and plentiful and the texture was perfectly creamy n chewy. Lamb rogan josh was tender n tangy n super flavorful. Did i mention the mushroom appetizer? Many veg options. Yumza! read more

Absolutely love this place ! The staff was so friendly and service was amazing . The food was so delicious. I got the chana saag and it was one of the best Indian dishes I have ever had . I cannot recommend this place enough read more

I was a bombay masala loyalist until this place opened up. The food here tastes healthier, the meat was really tender, and if you call the order it's cheaper than seamless read more

Good naan. Not greasy. Fresh flavors. Fried okra salad was unexpected and nice. Very friendly people too. Happy to have a legit Indian restaurant in the neighborhood! read more

My favorite Indian food. The chef uses fresh ingredients, nothing canned, no gross fillers, and you can taste the difference. Everything is so fresh and tasty. I live a few blocks away so I usually eat-in. They've been A grade since they opened and it shows: everything is clean and the bathroom is nice. Love the 25% lunch discount too. I have ordered delivery on those rainy nights and they were at my door in the blink of an eye. Some of my favorite things to order: chicken chettinad, malai kofta, corn saag, coconut naan, and of course mango lassi. I always have a hard time choosing because everything is so good. I've been going since they opened and wanted to keep it a secret, but now that I know the people who run it, I want to get the word out on how great this place is. Enjoy! read more

Some of the best indian food i've ever had in the country, the lobster curry is absolutely stunning. They give you not two but THREE samosas in an order, which is very generous. The chutneys are fresh and fragrant, the service is so fast and friendly. The delivery is awesome but I love eating in the restaurant. Try the Cauliflower Manchurian and Khandari Naan, also the Sag Paneer is the freshest and most delicious i've had. read more

Came last night for dinner. The ambience of the restaurant was really nice, and we'll worth eating there. The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, even giving a little extra food on the house. As food the food, it's rare that I find Indian food that does things better than average, but this place really did. The lamb vindaloo, cauliflower manchurian, and navaratran korma were all excellent. I especially want to highlight the chicken chettinad, which was both unusual and delicious. If I had any criticism, I'd say the samosas were a little bland, but overall an excellent find. Highly recommended. read more

The food, service, cleanliness and ambiance are top level. The entire delicious and interesting experience is one that makes me want to keep coming back. read more

We wanted Indian and didn't know of place in the area. This place had mostly 4- and 5-star reviews (and the 1-star reviews are for slow delivery, which wasn't a relevant issue for us) so we gave it a shot. We ordered the samosa appetizer, paneer tikka masala, chicken vindaloo, and naan. Basmati rice with a little shredded carrot and peas was included with the meal. Everything tasted fresh and well-prepared. I was also very pleased that they did not skimp on the paneer in my dish! I've been to many places that only give a few pieces of paneer, and it's always disappointing. The waiter was attentive and the food was brought out promptly. He also brought out a small, complimentary sample of the house-made rice pudding at the end. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal here! read more
