Would love to recommend, but unfortunately they are closed for good. I miss their samosas and selections of chivda. Their freshly made Kenyan Chivda was excellent. They were great. read more

Samosas to die for! If you miss samosas from 'Havemor restaurants' then this is the place to get it. All sweets are low in sugar, freshly made. Are you from Africa? Then you must try African chevda here. Ice creams have good unique flavors. It's a show off & retail place for their wholesale business. If you have eat sweets in weddings then mostly it's from this place. -Get 'to go' is easy and suggested.- Service & suggestions was nice and the manager was friendly and attentive. The one star I cut is for COVID-19 assurance. We got the chutney in open to share big container to self serve and give it back to serve others, small disposable container would be better choice for chutneys to serve it. We got open straws to mix chai, individually wrapped spoons would be better option. :( read more

The name says it all. It is really ROYAL Sweets. I have been to this place many times. It is my favorite evening snack place. I have tried almost everything on their menu from snacks, chaats, sweets, ice creams, and many more. Its the most amazing sweet shop I have ever been in the town. Atlanta's best chaat provider with freshly made samosas everyday. Specializing in namkeen snacks, mithai (Indian sweets), and other authentic Indian food dishes. My best and favorite item on the menu is Pani Puri. It is a common street snack in several regions of the Indian subcontinent. In east India, it is known as Phuchhka while in North India, it is called Golgappa. The main ingredients go with this dish are Flour, Spiced water, Onions, Potatoes, and Chickpeas. It is little tricky how to eat Pani Puri but try this way and you will enjoy them. Carefully stuff the Puri with chickpeas and potatoes from the plate. Dip the whole thing into the spicy mint water and make sure some gets in through the hole. Then quickly pop it into your mouth and eat. Few of my favorite sweets are Pista Burfee, Almond Burfee, Kalakand, Dry Fruit Halwa, Kesari Peda, Kaju Katli, Anjir Roll, Yellow Jalebi, Yellow Ladoo, Gulab Jamun, and Rasgula. Few of my favorite Namkeens are African Chevda, Papdi Gathia, Dal Moth, Spicy Sev, Bombay Mix, and Banana Chips. The samosas here are to die for. They are hands down the best Indian samosas I have eaten so far with a warning, they can get spicy so keep that Thums-Up cool drink handy. Service is excellent as the samosas are freshly fried. They have Decorative Boxes to choose from there large selection of simple to elegant decorated sweet boxes for any occasions, available in variety of shapes, sizes, and designs perfect for holidays, gifts, favors, and weddings events. You can also do the custom assortment which is to customize any one or two pound assortment from our large selection of freshly made sweets, mix and match all the favorites to satisfy any sweet tooth or craving. Funky decor, a cool owner, and tons of interesting and tasty treats. The chat is delicious. Inside look is really awesome with great wall painting, reminds me my home town. The ice creams are amazing. The flavors stood out the most against many other restaurants. The employees are all great and its such a nice atmosphere. I plan to keep coming here, I love it a lot. read more

This used to be good with original owners. Now that son and wife are running the place... awful service. About 3 months I bought $50 worth of different sweets ... he had the audacity to charge me 50cents for each tasting. 2nd time recently they created a ruckus because I bought 5 bags of African chewda which come in plastic bags and I asked for plastic containers to ship items to a friend. WOW! They finally after 10 mins back and forth gave me 3 containers begrudgingly making it sound they were doing a big favor! Sorry but such service is unacceptable. read more

Jalebi ( indian dessert ) - Best jalebi in whole complex. Enough amount of sweetness. No oil smell like others do .Once I brought jalebi from gokul sweets . It tasted bitter. Later i came to kw ,Bitter taste will come due to overused oil . Anyways good jalebi by Royal Sweets. One star less for color . Hope they will mk colorless jalebi soon . Paid 6$ /1 pond . read more

Royal Sweets - Jalebi- best jalebi in whole complex. - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Decatur, Georgia

After a heavy dinner down the street at Spice Root, we wandered into Royal Sweets for something light and different for dessert. Royal Sweets was completely empty on a Saturday night, as it was 30 minutes to closing. We strolled in and admired the large truck inside (how did they get it in and how will they ever drive it out?!) before approaching the glass display case. Honestly, everything inside was a huge mystery to me, but all I wanted was the gulab jamun, which I knew in my mind as honey soaked balls. The boo wanted mango sorbet. Both were excellent! The owner and the worker were patient with our ignorance, and helped us pick out the ice cream and the gulab jamun. I love fried dough and I love sugar, so the fried balls of dough soaked in honey was delicious. They even warmed it up for me! The mango sorbet was sweet and tasty. I was disappointed that they ran out of the chai ice cream, but I guess it was the end of the night. It seems like there are quite a few Indian dessert places in the area, but I like how quiet Royal Sweets was on a Saturday night. Not to mention that our both of desserts totaled to under $5! I will definitely be back to try the chai ice cream. read more

What a nice little find! After doing some shopping at Patel brothers, but not wanting dinner, I found myself walking into Royal sweets. You might think there's been an accident when you walk in, but no, that food truck sitting in the store is there on purpose! Royal sweets has all kinds of sweets traditional to indian cuisine, but I had my sights set on ice cream, and got myself the pistachion icecream scoop as well as scoop of Falooda (Rose water flavored). Both scoops cost $2.95 total, and for the flavor, that's a great deal! The Pistachio had little chunks of pistachio layered throughout the ice cream, and had a very creamy flavor that tasted great! The Falooda truly does have the taste of the way roses smell, which you wont get until you try a spoonful. It worked and I loved that flavor too! Not even planning it, I noticed the dirt cheap Samosa prices and ordered two veggie samosas ($2.50 for 2) and one chicken samosa ($0.89). Staff happily heated the samosas by throwing them in the fryer again to heat them (ask for this...they're REALLY good nice and hot). The chicken samosa was fairly small, but was packed with a ground chicken, and every bite was really delicious! The Veggie samosas were much larger, also packed with tons of flavor, and were spiced just right. I may have found a solid go to for affordable and tasty samosas! Staff were very friendly and happy to see me trying their foods. There's a good amount of seating in Royal sweets, and parking is shared, since Royal sweets is in the same parking space as Patel Brothers. Translation? You have nothing to worry about on parking. I really enjoyed myself, and i'd actually give them a 4.5...they're that good! Definitely show Royal Sweets some love the next time you're in the area. read more

I bought Jalebi from Royal sweets this weekend. jalebi was not crisp. looks like it was sitting on the counter for long before it was sold. I am not going to visit this place again. read more

I can eat the samosas all day. So flavorful. Ask for the sauce when you get them. The spicy green sauce is so good.

I give it 4.5 stars. Great place! The falooda is fantastic and it has a cute decor. My BF and I go here for falooda a lot and enjoy it every time. Check it out! read more

Although Royal Sweets sounds like this place just specializes in dessert, it is actually my go-to spot for samosas in the Patel Brothers Plaza. If you come on any old day, most places in the plaza will be crowded, but Royal typically does more pick up orders, so you will definitely have a place to sit. Royal serves the best value samosas I have found-- let me know if you find better! The food comes out quick and is deliciously textured each time! read more

Royally bad a**. I wandered into Royal Sweets after dining next door at Tava, and I couldn't believe what I saw: a stacked Indian bakery with a visually mesmerizing interior. Here's my take: ***** I. FOOD & DRINK They have several different kinds of entrees and drinks, but I just feasted on a couple plastic containers-worth of sweets. One container had various types of barfis (sugar, milk, flour, coconut, fruit, nuts) and the other consisted of various iterations of small syrup-soaked bread bites. All were very tasty. All gave me plenty of carbs. All made my belly larger. II. SERVICE I asked a lot of questions, and they were super nice. III. ATMOSPHERE & DÉCOR There's a small, colorful food truck inside the store, and a large, beautiful painted mural resides on the right wall. Pretty awesome. There are plenty of tables, for small groups. IV. PRICES I can't really recall how much the noms set me back, but I don't think it was much. I don't think the desserts had clearly labeled prices. V. OVERALL Pretty amazing Indian dessert shop that anyone should drop by while in Decatur! read more

So this place moved and I finally got to check them out. I wrote a review for the original location almost two years ago (http://www.yelp.com/biz/royal-sweets-decatur-3) and I feel that the business has kept up the quality while giving patrons a comfy spot to enjoy whatever treats they get. Seriously, what a difference from the other location, which was more of a pick-up kinda joint. This place has tables and benches and interesting wall art for you to eat your savory pastries and delicious sweets. Having been craving deliciousness from Royal Sweets for a while, I dragged AT with me and after I ordered a bunch of burfi and some rasmalai to chomp on in-house before leaving. Well, he had a trick up his sleeve and right as I was about to pay, he cleared his throat and started pointing at a bunch of savory pastries in the warm case. The girl who was helping me ran down to grab what he asked for and she packed them to-go. As we got rang up, I couldn't help but wander over to the ice cream case. Holy crap. I had never tried the kulfi at the other place but as I looked over the available flavors, I promised myself (and AT) that I would surely come back to try some out, especially the saffron pistachio kind. There was also a plain pistachio one, as well as a rose-flavored ice cream (which I bet AT would love and was secretly thinking about trying himself, which is why he didn't protest when I said I wanted to come back). We ate the rasmalai before leaving and I was immensely pleased and surprised to see saffron threads floating about. I'm not sure if I have never had this milky goodness with saffron but it was amazing. Maybe the best one I have ever had. The chicken and potato pastries weren't consumed a day or two later, but even after being refrigerated and reheated (in the oven though, rather than the microwave), they were very tasty. Great to grab on the go to get in some food in your belly, if you're in the area. They are very flaky, so don't blame me if your car seat is full of the pastry after you have finished eating it. Come here and experience the awesomeness. That's all. read more

The ice cream here is so delicious that it blast Busters Ice cream and all other ice cream parlor out of the water. I had chikoo ice cream and saffron ice cream. It was perfectly balance between sweet and cream. Come try it. I highly recommend it. read more

Customer service here is exceptionally good. They greet once you stroll through the door and immediately want to take care of all your needs. The selection of goodies are always amazing and one thing that they carry which most of the other Indian restaurants don't carry is DABELI. I can definitely say that have one of the best if not the best dabeli's in town. I also think of the the best things about Royal sweets is how clean they keep it unlike some other local shops (which I won't throw shade on), but they really take pride in maintaining a polished restaurant. They also pay attention to detail so once you walk in you will realize its not like any other shop around I don't want to spoil it but you will see once you get there. Finally my favorite thing they carry is the ice which is made in house. The Flavors are exactly what they are striving for Flaooda, Paan, Chai, and Kulfi. All of them are amazing; however, some might require you have an acquired taste to them so you've been warned. I've been going here for about a year now and can't seem to get enough. Keep it up guys. read more

Avoid this place if possible. I'm from Dallas, where our Royal Sweets is much bigger and has a huge variety of sweets, savories, and snacks, as well as at least 4 staff at the counter. This location only has pre-packaged sweets and savories, which are pretty expensive considering you don't get to customize your box of sweets. There is also only one person at the counter and one cook. I ordered the chole bhature to eat on site, which was the worst mistake ever. I will compliment the restaurant for bringing both items out hot. That's the only upside about the dish. The bhature was actually a couple of very greasy puris... not at all what bhature should be. The chole were barely seasoned, canned chickpeas. I was sick for two days after eating the chole... not the best experience when you're on a business trip. If you ask for a glass of water, you will be handed a small styrofoam cup and directed to the water fountain on the wall. The service was also terrible. First of all, they don't take American Express and neither does any other Indian shop in the entire shopping strip. I did not see the cashier again once she rang up my order. Other customers came in and she was still laughing with the cook in the kitchen, oblivious that someone else was waiting to be served. There are a lot of other great Indian places in Atlanta to catch a quick bite... go there instead. read more

Great snacks! Good prices and the best chat in Atlanta area.. I come there again and again just for the chat!

They have delicious samosas. They're definitely spicy, but when they come out fresh... OMGeezers! I don't have much of a sweet tooth, so I actually haven't tried their sweets yet. The woman at the front is also very nice in answering questions. read more

The best chaat place in Patel Plaza. Hands down. There are quite a few in this plaza, but none is as clean, with friendlier of service, and fairer price points. I'm a chaat connoisseur, and these folks know how to do it right. The samosas are large and cost $2.49 for 2!! You can get a fulfilling meal for under $15 with an awesome lassi. For once, non desi folks can come in and count on staff who are happy to explain the different types of sweets and chaats, how they are made, what they are, etc. Unlike the other ones here, you don't feel conscious about asking questions. Overall, from a service, price, cleanliness, and quality perspective this places gets 5 stars. I usually never give out 5s, but thus place deserves it. read more

Stopped in for tea while I was waiting for my take out order at Zyka to be ready. I was pleasantly surprised by the new little spot. They have awesome decor (a large Indian truck is literally parked INSIDE). The service is friendly and not rude like some Indian fast food spots can be. I bought some banana chips to try and let's just say finished the entire bag in a week. I can't wait to return and try the snacks! read more

I used to go to this indian sweets store at its former location. I just visited the store today for the first time and I was impressed. Clean and more spacious the the original. The selection of sweets were all fresh. Orange julabi takes me back to my childhood and I was instantly teleported to this moment of my life and I couldn't help but smile. I tried the yellow ludoos and barfi-- all very fresh and delicious. The cashew based sweets were also very good and I found myself savoring each and every bite. Interestingly, they also had a selection of snack foods known as "chat" at a reasonable price. Some tried and true favorites but I went for the pani puri. These puffed rice balls with spiced water inside exploded with flavor on my mouth and was delicious! I would highly recommend this place and I will be back often. read more

I can describe this place in many, many words but to put together~~ Delicious food, clean and neat and really prompt service! This place has never ceased to amaze me! Good food every time.. especially a fan of their chhola bhatura, sev batata puri and ragda pattice! Go, try for yourself :) read more

This place looks amazing! The indoor food truck and the enlarged Indian street themed portrait on the wall is bringing my attention! I got a chance to try their chaat dishes for dinner, and boy was I surprised! I loved the samosas! These are the best I've ever tried. The paneer pakoras and bhel puri was equally delicious. After dinner I tried some of their in-house made ice creams. I was incredible pleased! The paan masala and mango ice creams were awesome! I will definitely recommend this place to all my friends and family! read more

Randomly came across this place and so glad I did! They make homemade ice cream! They have cool unique flavors like gulab jaman flavored ice cream. I had the falooda ice cream and it was seriously delish, way better than kulfi which I don't really like. This was really creamy and tasted fresh. They had just made it when we walked in. The people who work here are really nice and it's a clean place with some nice décor. read more

Good food, clean decor, and good service. Would recommend over the other places in this shopping center.

I checked this place out today during my lunch break and it was absolutely delicious-- THE BEST INDIAN FOOD I've tasted! They have a huge menu that everyone from my team was excited about tasting-- we tried a variety of their chaat dishes with samosas being everyone's favorite! Their big display of sweets was well organized and looked absolutely tasting as well but we decided to check out their exotic ice creams- The Mango and coconut were authentic in flavor and so creamy! We will definitely be coming here on more of our lunches out of the office! If you're in the area-- we all strongly recommend trying them out! Super nice employee too! read more

Absolutely 'NO COURTESY' shown when food doesn't meet customer's EXPECTATIONS. We ordered 'Pani Puri' and let us strongly admit that it is not the first time we ever had 'Pani Puri'. We have had it multiple times in other states, back home and made at home as well . On the first bite, we found it extremely opposite of our expectations. Brought that up to the host's/manager's attention and he even saw that we ate only 5% (just enough to tell that it is not made right). Despite the fact that customer had a very DISAPPOINTING EXPERIENCE with the order and left 95% of the order on the table, we were charged full price. When asked on why we were being charged, only one word was delivered, 'sorry'. If you are really sorry then why are you even charging full price... Disappointed... read more

This place is surely authentic and is definitely my go-to place. The food and environment reminds one of India and the service is so clean, and yes very fast. While all treats are delicious, the veggie samosas and their chicken pastries are to die for! read more

I went there after reading a yelp review about how good the ice cream is. My opinion, it was the worst ice cream I ever had. No texture or creaminess even taste was nothing but way too sweet. Frankly they don't know how to make ice cream. The kulfis were no better with too much sugary flavor. For great ice cream I will go back to Butter & Cream or Jeni's ice cream in downtown Decatur. Ice cream making is an art that consist of getting the base to the right texture but this place has no clue on this. Finally I bought one of the packaged nasta which was also stale in taste. The only saving grace is the service. The young girls working there wished & thanked you. This kind of service is not even part of the equation at the other 3 similar stores in Patel Plaza (Chatpatti & Chowpaati or Gokul). read more

OK food, pathetic service. Staff doesn't know how to greet customers. Pleasantry would add great value.
