Came here to try their food and buffet on a Sunday and I was pleasantly impressed at the selection of food they had to offer. I have never seen so many options at an Indian buffet so that was huge plus. The food was very fresh and tasted great. There's also a lot of vegetarian options for people with dietary restrictions. I had the chili chicken, chicken tikka, noodles, biryani, and shrimp fried rice and all of them were delicious! The resturant was clean and well kept and the food was being refreshed regularly. The only bad thing was the service was very slow, even though there wasn't that many people in the restaurant. Anytime we needed anything we always had to grab the attention of the wait staff to come help as they weren't regularly checking up on tables. Overall a great experience and for the price it's a very good bargain, would definitely be back and would recommend to anyone that want to try good Indian food buffet. read more

Pro: a good option to satisfy your southern Asian cravings. My star of the show was the chicken biryani. This plate was so PACKED with chicken, I fear the rice may have been a little lonely! :) Jokes aside, the dish was aromatic and enjoyable. But not to be undersold was the lamb vindaloo. This is a dish meant for those who prefer a strong dash of spice in their life! The meat itself was fork tender and the heat level did not disappoint! Add some naan to your order and you are set! Con: I've only done delivery orders, so no feedback on service and ambiance...yet! Bottom Line: come for the flavors, stay for the spice (if you want it!) read more

Food very good, service awful. It was like I was invisible. They forgot my soda, it took a while to get my food, nobody came to check on me. It took forever for me to get my check. While I love good Indian food, the service is a big part of the dining experience, and it was very lacking. The chaat was delicious as was the chicken tikka dosa (a real treat!). But feeling invisible, really spoiled the whole experience for me. The dining area also lacks a lot of ambience, but I could get past that if everything else fell into place. And, as I was leaving, they were tacky enough to ask me to leave my tip in cash. If you have to go here, ordering takeout might be your best bet. read more

Since working at an Indian-owned firm in the late 90s, I've been a fan of Indian food. Many members of my work team have been raving about the Pepper House and recently our boss took all of us there for lunch. People who really know the food did the ordering and we feasted on dishes like Gongura chicken, Andhra chicken curry, and of course Chicken Tikka Masala. As half our team is Vegetarian, we also had Saag Paneer, Dal Makhani, Paneer Tikka Masala and one of the Biryanis. All were stunningly good, with far more delicate flavors than I've experienced anywhere else. We ordered everything at the medium spice level which is legitimately quite hot. As sides we had both the buttered and garlic Naan, both of which are also just amazing. I didn't get to take any pictures because with such a large group it was quite the feeding frenzy. Service was excellent for our large group, The ambiance is strictly strip-mall restaurant. That's fine because the food more than makes up for it and I can't wait to go back! read more

The food was good but the two cockroaches that joined us for our meal were not. They seem to do a good takeout business so you wouldn't see that. Also the booth seats were torn. read more

We had Chicken Tikka Masala, Chicken 65, Lamb Korma, Aloo Samosa, Butter Naan, and Mango Lassi. They were all amazing and we are very satisfied. Ordered takeout and waited less than 20 minutes. This will probably be our go-to Indian place. read more

Pepper House - a table full of food and drinks - Indian Near Me - Mount Laurel, New Jersey

It's shocking how much this place has deteriorated in quality and standards even with the same management. The food used to be very good a few years ago. But sadly not anymore. The dosas were soggy and sambar & chutney were tasteless. Aloo parantha didn't have anything with it - buyer or dahi or pickle would have been nicer. And it didn't taste anything. I keep going back to this place in hopes may be it was just one time. But twice has that happen. I would not go back to this place. read more

Stopped by on a weekend lunch and tried their lunch buffet - there were 5 types of rice be 3-4 types of chicken - all of which a need to have the base. The lack of variety in the buffet was striking and the reason why a return is less likely. Clean enough place that gets the basics right with an Andhra-style cuisine that is offered. Better options at that price point abound. Service was minimal and didn't see anything that would be compelling enough to give their A La Carte options a shot read more

Pepper House - Appetizers in their weekend lunch buffet with a rasam. - Indian Near Me - Mount Laurel, New Jersey

I came to Pepperhouse with my parents and fiancé at the end of December on a Sunday night for a quick dinner, and Pepperhouse DELIVERED! Outstanding food with no wait time. We were nervous at first, because Pepperhouse took over a restaurant that was there before they are what they are now. I can't even remember what it used to be called. But a new name, new management, and a new look is just what this place needed. We ordered so many different dishes from Hakka Noodles, to Samosa Chaat, Gobi Manchurian, and a Dosa, and everything was fantastic. I am not big on buffets so I wouldn't be able to comment on that. As a restaurant with you ordering food to the table, I can definitely vouch for that! They also have a banquet hall next door which is a huge plus! I can't wait to be back. read more

Pepper House - Delish - Indian Near Me - Mount Laurel, New Jersey

We tried the Hyderabadi chicken dum biryani and the Kakinada chicken biryani here for the first time. It was a take out order and we loved it! The dum biryani was authentic and the Kakinada biryani is more like bone-in chicken fry/roast dum biryani. Both the biryanis had their own distinct taste and was super delicious. The best part was the quantity. Each dish can easily serve two individuals. We were just visiting NJ and would have been regulars here if we stayed close by. read more

Stopped in here real quick for dinner while my kid is at a dance class. Since it was just me, I didn't order much but I loved what I ordered. Loved their aloo samosa and chicken tikka masala (like it how we can adjust the spice, of course I went with spicy). Totally recommend this place! read more

Food was great . We had chicken 65 , chilli chicken. Paneer jalfrezi , dosa . Everything was good . Service was good too . Ambiance is ok .

My fiancé and I love Indian food. We have eaten at dozens of Indian restaurants in and out of NJ. For us, especially around this area, this is the place to go. There are many new or well known options close by but I promise you, they do not compare to the flavors of Pepper House. This is not fine, fancy dining. The service is so-so, nothing stellar to note. However, if you're looking for really flavorful Indian food at a reasonable price for the quantity of food, look no further. We have tried a lot of the menu and have never been disappointed. Our favorite appetizer is the Gobi Manchurian. Another highlight is the Saag Paneer and Veggie/paneer Biryani. Their dosas are also delicious. My fiancé enjoys the Lamb Rogan Josh and gets it most visits. I took off one star due to them forgetting condiments (when we do take out) and the naan has shrunk in size (I'd rather be charged more and get a regular sized naan). My biggest complaint and frustration is they are totally inconsistent with their spice levels. There have been many times I order "mild" and get "medium" or "hot". If you're not wanting more than a mild spice level I suggest asking for "extra mild". My fiancé loves and can tolerate extremely spicy foods so he always asks for the highest heat level. He reports that it is usually "hot" but that sometimes it seems more "medium" or even so hot he could barely tolerate the spice level. Overall, this is the place to go for all of your Indian food cravings! read more

Food was good. Price was appropriate, but Naan was not included, as is in many Indian restaurants. Service was good. Ambience was fine. A little short on wait staff, but waitress was friendly and efficient. read more

Since they can no longer do a buffet due to covid, we ordered takeout. Everything was really good and portion size was great! Rice was included in our order, too. We ended up going back the next day to get a couple more orders of naan to go with our leftovers, as well as another order of samosa chat. Employees are friendly and following covid guidelines. read more

The person who is in the front desk is very rude. The ambience is normal and the food is also okay.

We tried Sunday buffet on 7/22/2024 & found it awful. The food seems like leftovers from previous night. They have got a banquet hall & I think most of the leftovers are being sold on Sunday buffet. The price $18/person is absolutely NOT WORTH IT. Wish there was a negative rating available. We will never ever visit this place. We pretty much tossed our money there. read more

The food is really good. A small, family staff leads to some communication issues, but nothing that can't be worked around. The location near Rowan makes it a perfect place to meet family, and everybody loves this place. Authentic means spicy around here, so medium is PLENTY for me. The samosa chat is an appetizer we always get - it's fantastic. I've not been disappointed in any dish in several trips, and I plan to return. They take credit cards, but for some reason, they want tips in cash, so be aware of that. read more

Great authentic Indian food. I ordered delivery through Uber Eats and not only was it packaged well it was still hot. For dinner my family and I got the Samosa Chaat, Butter Chicken., Curry Goat, and Garlic Naan. Firstly the naan was one of the best I ever had and actually had a strong garlic flavor which I loved. Naan order is pretty small so I would reccomend getting 1 order per person. The portions were large even for the Samosa chaat which had all the authentic flavors and the right amount of spice. The Butter Chicken was good but I picked the wrong spice level, I wanted it to be spicier than it was. Overall, food was great and full of flavor. read more

I ordered goat biryani last week and it was the worst. Not only that cut mirchi is also worst read more

I don't know if it's a matter of new ownership or shear arrogance. Their prices have gone up, serving sizes have become smaller, and you receive an embarrassingly small amount of meat in meat dishes. The worst cuts as well, mostly bones. This is not a one-off incident, we are regulars. No more, however. Poor customer service, high prices and low quality are the 3 strikes we needed. read more

The food here is excellent; I've tried a variety of dishes and each one has been great. Each dish comes with a generous portion, and is much more reasonably priced than other Indian-style restaurants in the area. Service is always friendly and usually takes 10-20 mins after placing my order over the phone. If you are ordering via Grubhub, they will default to mild spice level; comment if you would like it to be spicy. My only complaint is that during the pandemic, one of the employees who takes payment/hands over food does not wear a mask inside, which I have observed on 2 or 3 pickups. It makes me uneasy to be inside paying for my takeout food when the employee doesn't wear a mask in close contact to me (even though there's a sign on the door saying masks required). Im not going to rate below 5 stars during this time for this minor and temporary issue, but I hope that the staff is taking precautions especially in preparing the food. read more

Zero stars. As I was eating my chicken tikka Masala I realized there was a roach in it. I literally threw up. Unacceptable. How do you not inspect the food you send out to your customers?. NEVER AGAIN. read more

Pepper House - ROACH IN CHICKEN TIKKA MASALA - Indian Near Me - Mount Laurel, New Jersey

When we went in to the Plainsboro location there was no one to greet us. It took several minutes before an employee seated us. Chillie gobi appetizer was good. The entree Veg hyderabad dum biriyani was steamy hot but we could see it was not mixed well and was almost tasteless, appears to be reheated rather than freshly prepared. Service was extremely awful.. Overall I will not visit again. read more

I'm not sure what happened to this place they upped the price on food and give you way less! I order Lamb vindaloo and I a container of sauce with small pieces of lamb for $19!! I feel like I got robbed! read more

I'm from California and had Indian food all the time, when I moved to the Midwest I missed it like crazy. I just moved to the east coast and I couldn't wait to find a place with good tikka masala and I think I've found it at pepper house. It's the first Indian restaurant I've tried here and I really enjoyed it. I got an order of garlic naan with paneer tikka masala and that first bite was heaven. Definitely going back. read more

We couldn't possibly be happier. The food was hot, even for Indian IMO, but it was delicious and they really care about making customers happy here. The service was amazing, they really went above and beyond to make us happy! My wife and I stopped in with our kids (3, 6 and 8) who love Indian food but are a bit picky about new things and can't handle spice yet. Some of the food here was way spicier than we were expecting (even the egg dosa and the tandoori chicken!) and the kids were upset. We didn't even complain but our waitress (who I think was a manager also) saw the kids' reactions and insisted on fixing it for us. She replaced two of our dishes and continued to check up on us afterward. read more

tried almost after a year since i didn't like it the first time. Ordered 2 different biryani's and both of them were really good. Will order more. Thanks read more

The food is excellent and authentic, however for taking out menu is unorganized, we were waiting for one hour and half instead of half hour and there were more than ten people were waiting as same. One lady had cancelled her food, she couldn't wait after an hour waiting and one couple walked out the door after seen people in the line waiting for To Go food. They might had short staffed in the kitchen. We went there for the first time on the Friday, a week before this Friday and the food was ready in half hour and was very good, but this Friday was a mess. Hoping they solve the issues. read more

Pepper House - Tandoori Chicken - Indian Near Me - Mount Laurel, New Jersey

Absolutely delicious-- it was our first time trying and will be a monthly staple going forward. We ordered the butter chicken with garlic naan and in HOT and it was just enough spice. Such good flavor/portions. read more

At last an Indian restaurant that actually uses a variety of spices in sufficient quantities to make a difference! Samosas great with lots of filling and minimal pastry. Onion pakora very flavorful without a lot of breading. Garlic Naan actually tasted of garlic. My wife had Chicken Chettinad, which had a an excellent mix of spices and was quite hot. I ordered the butter chicken which also was flavorful and mild. I actually ordered the butter chicken to hot, but it wasn't, so I suspect the heat level may have been reversed (though the invoice showed the order the way I placed it) Nevertheless, this will be our go to Indian restaurant. read more

Food was amazing(kadhai paneer was almost the same taste as I grew up in india). Staff wasn't very friendly, they acted very unusual when we walked in and kept avoiding us for some reason when we needed to request something. read more

Chicken Vindaloo and garlic naan were superb. Some of the best I've had across the country. Will be back when I can.

Today we visited again ~6:20 pm order 2 starters 2 main course. One of the main course they gave us at 7:20 pm that too we had to force them to make it togo. We planned for dine in ended up togo. I don't blame they staff only 2 people they can't manage so many orders. It complete negligence of management. read more

Pepper House is one of the best Indian Restaurants I have been to. I always get the Goat Biryani, which is very delish! Faisal who is takes the orders and prepares the meals, he is very pleasant and always takes cares of my Mom and I. He pays attention to details. I go so often that he knows what I like and what I always order. Because of Faisal the Customer Service at Pepper House is amazing ! I would highly recommend this Indian restaurant, if you're in the area. read more

Big cheats.Stay away!!. Called them to place an order for chicken biryani, a curry and an appetizer.Went to pick up the order and was charged about 5 dollars more than what it adds up to on their website.Tital adds up to $45+tax.Instead was charged $52.Called them and asked them to explain.I am told there is additional charge for protein of $2 though I ordered chicken biryani.In addition, the person tells me there is. Surcharge of $2 for paying by card vs if I place an order online.Unbelievable!!.She didn't tell me any of this while placing the order. Sounds like they scam people by charging them 4-5 dollars more hoping that they don't notice.What a bunch of cheaters.Stay away from this restaurant. read more
