When you enter, there are two seating areas. We were a party of 4, so we sat in the larger area. We were seated right away. Our server was very nice and kept checking in on us to see if we enjoyed the food or needed anything else. The menu is extensive. There is something for everyone. One of the reasons I chose this place. The food is delicious and they give you ample food. You won't leave hungry and will have enough for leftovers. We ordered the wings, butter chicken, chicken tikka masala, shrimp vindaloo, Rogan Josh, and shrimp biryani. The wings could use more seasoning/salt but otherwise everything else was great. The biryani is delicious and had a good amount of large shrimp. If you order it spicy, you won't be disappointed. Goes well with the vindaloo. The Rogan Josh, I ordered it medium spicy and it was the spicy level was perfect and not overpowerful. The naan were really good as well. We ordered the garlic and rosemary garlic one. They only serve beer and wine for alcoholic drinks. The prices are average. I definitely will be coming back to try more dishes. My niece really enjoyed her first experience trying Indian food. Come here if you want some good Indian food with so many options.

Both times we walked in without a reservation and got seated easily. There's also a nice bar area that adds to the charm. We ordered Tandoori Paneer Tikka and Papdi Chaat to start -- both were flavorful and delicious. For the main course, we had Garlic Naan (soft and garlicky) with Baingan Bharta, which had that perfect smoky, roasted taste. Ended our meal with Gulab Jamun, soft and sweet just right. They also have a banquet hall for small events -- I once saw an Indian celebration happening there, which was a nice touch. Overall, amazing food, great service, and lovely ambiance -- a place worth revisiting!

Service was great and the food was delicious! Portions are a bit on the small side, but still filling. Okra fries were so yummy and different as an appetizer. We also had the classic chicken tikka masala (well seasoned and not too heavy), chicken malai kebab (super soft and tender!) and baigan bharta (delish!). The cherry on top was they made a small turkey and sides for anyone in the restaurant to share so we still got to have some yummy Thanksgiving food on the side of our meal (and I got my stuffing fix which was the only thing I was missing that day!).

This restaurant was recommended by a friend who grew up in India, and so we had to visit! He said…read morethis spot is as good as what you can get in India. One thing you need to get here is a rava dosa. We got the Cheese Onion Rava Masala Dosa, which was so so good. Super crispy and flavorful--it's the best feeling when you get hear the crunch after ripping a piece of dosa off to eat. Many of the components of the South Indian Thali were also very yummy too, and was also a good size portion. I'm usually not a fan of chickpeas, but this was great! Service was decent and filled up pretty quickly, even had a wait on a different day that we went, which says a lot about a restaurant in Hicksville (and how you know it's good too).

My only complaint? My stomach has a limit…read more My family and I have been coming to Diwan for years, and this is hands down our go-to spot for Indian all-you-can-eat. I used to frequent the Indian buffets in Jackson Heights, and honestly, Diwan is just as good, if not better! One thing I really appreciate is that they have their own parking lot, the dining room is spacious, and as a parent, I was thrilled to see they have baby high chairs. Those little details make a big difference. We stopped by for their weekday AYCE special at just $15 per adult, which is an incredible value! My plate always ends up looking the same because I can't resist the chicken biryani, palak paneer, and that rich, creamy butter chicken. Oh, and they mostly use chicken thighs! So tender and moist! I keep telling myself I'll try something different... then I walk back with the exact same favorites. No regrets. We also ordered the mango lassi, and it was fantastic! Just a little tip: it comes with ice by default, so if you prefer it without ice, just let them know when ordering. The food quality has been consistently excellent every time we've visited, and the service has always been warm and attentive. Another thing I enjoy is how peaceful the dining room is. It's not loud or chaotic. Everyone seems completely focused on the important business of enjoying their food. A couple of helpful tips: the buffet is dine-in only, so you can't pack up buffet food to take home. If you're ordering takeout, you'll need to order from the regular menu instead. They also offer children's pricing for the buffet, so if you're unsure about the details, just give them a quick call. If you're craving great Indian food without emptying your wallet, Diwan continues to be one of my favorite AYCE spots. Highly recommended!

I went back today to order takeout because they had a sign that said original management is back. Not true! The nan I got was completely burnt black on the bottom and the biryani was just awful.

We came on a Friday night at 6:30pm. One spot left in the parking lot. We entered the restaurant…read moreand one table was eating and another was just sat, looking like deer in headlights. No one greeted us so the people without food said "we think you just sit yourself" So we did. And we waited. A few minutes later another couple came in and did the same thing we did - popped their heads in, confused as to whether this was an actual restaurant or just a live play of people sitting at tables with no food and no menus and no staff in sight. Finally a frazzled young man came out from the kitchen and yelled "it's just me working, it's only me!" That was all we needed to know about this restaurant and we booked it out there. As we were leaving the parking lot we noticed the other people were also leaving. I have no idea what was actually going on. Why was it only one non-Indian person working on a Friday night? I was excited to try Mango but this experience really soured me. We went to Atithi in Hicksville instead and had an authentic, delicious meal. I would not recommend Mango.

I was really impressed with the high ratings for this restaurant...until I realized that most of…read morethe high ratings were from non-Indian patrons. So, I automatically lowered my expectations before going to Mango. We are, after all, in Long Island. My expectations were correct. The food here is very Americanized; extremely mild flavors (bordering on bland). I also ordered my entree "spicy" but what I received was very mild (both in flavor and spiciness). On a positive note, customer service and hospitality was very warm and friendly. The restaurant was decorated very nicely and was very inviting. Parking is available in the shared lot in front of the restaurant but the spots are limited. Mango does have a large menu with a nice variety of dishes. I just wish the food was prepared more authentically. Bolder flavors would do wonders for Mango!

Wow! This place checks all the boxes for the best Indian restaurant in town!…read more Atithi is a family-owned, pure vegetarian spot offering delicious dishes with a creative twist. The staff is knowledgeable about the menu and willing to offer recommendations when needed. The best part is that the menu has very detailed descriptions of each item so even if you're not super familiar with this cuisine, you'll know how to order. My husband and I started with samosas which were the best I've ever had! If you're a fan, please go and try this and let me know if I'm being hyperbolic, but they were insanely good! I had the Aloo Gobi Masala which was out of this world. The flavors were well balanced and tasty. My husband had the veg biryani. The portions were plenty and the ingredients super fresh! We're so excited to have found a great purely vegetarian Indian restaurant so close to home. We will absolutely be back!

I was so happy to hear that they opened another restaurant in Glen Cove! Plenty of street parking is available, and they even have a shared parking lot in back of the restaurant! I parked in the back, and entered the restaurant via the backdoor! Note that there are stairs at the back entrance, so if you can't do stairs, it's best to park in front of the restaurant. This Glen Cove locations is lovely; beautiful murals and great vibes. I was shocked and sad to see it so empty on a Saturday evening! I hope more people give this place a chance because the food and service is great! This was our Shared Menu (plenty for 2ppl, and we had leftovers): -- Water Buffalo Momos w.Chili Sauce (8pcs/$18): the Momos were tasty; the meat was very lean. I would skip the Chili sauce next time. I didn't like the sweet and sour taste of the sauce, so next time I'd like to try the steamed Momos with Johl sauce instead. -- Choila Roti "Not a Taco" with Jackfruit (2pcs/$12): Not a Taco but similar to a taco. This was delicious and I'd get this again. We choice the Jackfruit version but they also have a chicken version. -- Masala Wings (Sauteed wet version) (4pcs/$11): I remember really liking the wings when I was at the Ridgewood location but couldn't recall which wings we had. On this visit, we had the wet version which was good but I realized that I like their dry version better. -- Grilled Lamb Chops w.Timur Sauce, Veggies & white rice (2pcs/$25): Surprisingly, this was my least fave dish of the night. I normally love lamb chops but these chops didn't really have a nice seared taste to them. The texture was a little off for me. Also, it was very boney with not much meat. I would try another entree next time. All in all, a good meal! I found the large selection of appetizers more interesting than the entrees, and would have been happy just sharing a bunch of appetizers and small plates.
