    Dal Makhani
    Shubhi M.

    Absolutely fantastic place! Everything we got tasted very fresh and less oil and heavy cream, which some restaurants use to mask lack of flavor. The prices are also reasonable. - paneer tikka app: super soft and fresh and had a mustardy char on top sauce on top - dal makhani: very good and perfectly stewed lentils, and just the right amount of butter - saag paneer and Malala kofta : surprisingly very little oil and butter and cream because they tend to be more heavy - garlic and rosemary naan; although good flavors, they were a tad under cooked A nice touch they did at the end was provide hot toilettes to clean your hands at the table! The service was great also, our waiter was running around but somehow quick to fill up waters, check in on us, and clear away dishes. The owner also came over twice to check in on us and walk us out. Ambiance - beautiful decor but the place is a little small A great addition to the UWS food scene!!

    Indian food executed really well. The malai kofta was good, the naan was good, the pani puri was good, the mango lassi was good. I would definitely come back.

    After I ate the food at Rudraks Fine Indian Cuisine I swear I died and went to Heaven. We really miss the vegetarian Indian restaurant that was there before them, but we were more than happy to give this restaurant a shot too. My sister and I split two different chicken dishes. We had the Chicken Tikka Masala and the chicken saag. We also had naan, papadam, and a lot of rice on the side. I was a huge fan of the chicken tikka masala. That is my absolute favorite dish. I love the sauce and the chicken was the perfect texture. I also loved the chicken saag, but favored the masala. Rudraks also packed a dessert for us as well. We had dinner as a group of four and we all really loved our meals. We each got to try a little bit of each other's food and we were all deeply satisfied. I can see this being our new number one Indian restaurant in the neighborhood. Even my dad who doesn't love spice said this would be our default Indian takeout place.

    The food here is AMAZING. Service is great as well. A tiny bit slow at times but they're very polite and kind. It was slightly warm inside. Otherwise, the food came quick, it was hot and fresh, and the ambience was beautiful with comfortable seating. Highly recommend this place!

After a rather…read moredisappointing recent experience at a poke shop in Fort Lee, I decided to give them a try and I was happy that I did! First, the name - I was wondering if this was a chain since I know one in Fort Lee, and a new one sprang up on 9W/Sylvan Ave. in Englewood Cliffs... and the lady told me they're all independently owned under same "theme/name." Ok, now that we got that out of the way... (asked nobody ever but still) THEY ARE BACK after closing for a month due to Coronavirus, now for a week. The owner lady told me people still think they're closed, so I wanna get the word out there to come SUPPORT your local business! PLACE - Bright and meticulously clean with well laid out menu items. Poke isn't on their circulated menu so took a picture with updated pricing. FOOD - I ordered Tuna poke and Spicy Salmon poke ($14 ea.) and I was not disappointed. There was a sushi chef on premise working with chunks of sashimi fish preparing orders. When I got home to eat, I noticed the fish was really fresh, with sensible usual poke toppings, and I love the fact that they actually use fresh chunks of salmon for their "Spicy Salmon" unlike many joints that cut corner by using the mashed up stuff with less fresh fish and fillers. They also veered towards light in terms of sriracha mayo and shoyu which preserved the taste just right, and I poured a bit of ponzu to suit my own taste. Portion was generous and came with a bowl of hot miso soup which was just perfect. Only minor feedback would be that rice was a bit blocky-cooler than I'd have liked so took wee bit more effort to eat together with the toppings... but not a big deal. With recent rise in delivery apps you might be tempted to (not even sure if they participate), but you know how they kill the restaurant's margin... So get off your butt and just go pick it up yourself... you need fresh air / groceries anyway right? :) Thank you for a delicious dinner and we'll be back.

    I have driven throughout Edgewater for years and have not seen Madison Café and Grill. Thanks to…read moreYelp, my curiosity was piqued and I'm so glad that I visited. The restaurant has an interesting history. Even though the original opened in Cresskill, NJ, it unfortunately has permanently closed. However, not only is the Edgewater location amazing, but it had the guts to open during COVID (2022), survived, and is succeeding. The restaurant is beautiful inside and outside. Their decorations are tasteful, the presentation of the food is award winning, and the service is stellar. I started with a Mocha Cappuccino and it was so good. Served in a large mug, an airy/creamy top, and had the perfect amount of mocha happiness throughout. Before the meal even started, we were graciously given Za'atar (a popular Middle Eastern spice blend with an earthy, tangy, and nutty flavor, toasted sesame seeds, and sumac, with salt). It was crunchy, drizzled with oil, and I enjoyed how each thin pita bite made the spices explode all over the table. The entrees were: Strawberry French Toast. The next was the Falafel Platter (chickpeas and fava bean balls, served with tahini sauce, pickles, turnips, tomato, and mint). The last selection was the Avocado Toast (Citrus cured salmon over multigrain bread, tomatoes, onions, capers & citrus vinaigrette). Not only were all of these dishes beautifully presented, but all were filling, as well. My Avocado Toast kept me full for the rest of the day and the salmon was enjoyably salty, thin, and delicious. I noticed a dessert in their display case and ordered it. The dessert was the Riz Bil Ashta (Lebanese rice cream, infused with orange blossom water, blended with milk and cheese, and topped with crushed pistachios). This dessert tasted like a regal custard and the pistachios added an enjoyable texture that makes it recommended. Of course, I had to cap the meal with a Mocchiato. This amazing beverage followed the rest of the meal..... delicious, eyes closed good, and every sip was full-flavored. Thank you, Madison Café and Grill, for presenting a memorable meal and I wish you continued success.

We had high expectations but when the salad and the half of a deviled egg arrived I was honestly surprised. The presentation felt cheap and the portion was super small. The salad barely had any dressing. The main dish I got was lobster - good flavor but overcooked and rubbery. Tiny portion that left me wanting more food. Hubby had the steak, they did not give option how you would like it and it arrived medium/well done. The portions were so tiny I was still hungry, for the price I honestly wish we went to omakase instead. Oh. And they automatically add 25% service. Owner is very friendly and service was polite but for the price it felt like we got robbed. Not sure we'll be back, really wanted to like it but the only memorable thing was the music and ambience. I felt compelled to review because I really wanted the owners to see this and make changes. The potential is there but with many restaurants around, there simply wasn't anything special. Pls be transparent to your guests and include info about prix fixe menu on reservation next time, and perhaps give your guests more value for the money. $150 should at least be 4-5 course for the size that was provided.. I'm so sad that we didn't like it bc we live so close :(

I had the cookies and cream shake twice and the smores once. My gf's sister had the chocolate shake. They all tasted more like ice cream with toppings, and the s'mores shake oddly had a strawberry flavor to it--maybe a machine mix-up. Luckily, my girlfriend likes strawberry, so it worked out! We all tasted the strawberry and thought it was strange. My gf's sister agreed the chocolate shake just tasted like ice cream blended with milk. The shakes could be better. I am a big burger and shake fan so that's a little disappointing. Overall, this place is great and definitely worth coming back to. I'll probably skip the shakes next time, but I'm looking forward to trying more of their desserts.
