17 Best Indian Restaurants near Mahwah

“We absolutely love this place!! The food is 5 stars delicious. The owners/waiters are very polite and do the best they can on a busy Friday night. I really enjoy the music and mood lighting and find the table and chairs to be comfortable. Sometimes the food/lassi does not come all at once but we usually share so we don’t mind. Highly recommend if you like indian food“

“We found this restaurant after a visit to the nearby Mahwah temple on a Sunday night given most other restaurants were closing or shut around 7.30pm. we were very impressed with the quality and taste of food. We ordered chola bathura, naan, roti, chapati , Dal tadka, paneer etc and all of them were very good. The food was reasonably priced too, definitely lower than most Indian restaurants these days.“

“Absolutely amazing food, the goat sukka & boneless chicken biryani is our go to order. Various other dishes that we have tried are also delicious. The quality & taste of food is always consistent both when we have done a takeout and catered at a party. The husband (chef) and wife (at the counter) are so cheerful & pleasant, always a pleasure to interact with. Excellent addition to the neighborhood“

“Nirvana Indian Kitchen exceeded all my expectations! The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, and the food was out of this world. From the tender tandoori chicken to the rich and creamy paneer tikka masala, every dish was bursting with flavor. Can't wait to visit again!“

“Hands down best Indian food around! Delicious, flavourful, great, and generous portions! The atmosphere is so chill and modern. Love the music they're playing. What's even more impressive is their amazing service and hospitality. I've been in the hospitality industry for decades as a worker and customer, and I have not seen such top-notch service in a while! Always welcoming and attentive, always offering us a freebie dessert or something to that liking (which I don't expect or feel entitled to at all, but wow, what a gesture). It's always a pleasure to dine here.“

“We had an excellent selection of Indian cuisine. Trying many appetizers and sharing our entrees. The staff was attentive, the food quite memorable. We will certainly return.Vegetarian options: Sadly, none of us were vegetarians, but knowing my daughter, she would be happy here.“

“I have not been here yet, but I went through many of the reviews and also have the pleasure to know someone personally that could not say anything else BUT WONDERFUL things about the flavorful food and spices.I am also looking forward to meeting Alok seems to be the #️⃣1 employee ??“

“Food is amazing! The only thing that we did not like much is the server/waitress. It was our first time trying out Indian food and would've like us to have a better guidance for choosing . We did receive a good choice of food just because we were constantly asking about what's in it but i dont think she would have narrow it down for us the first time we said "it's our first time trying the food.". I wish she was more attentive especially for first timers. But overall, great food, we loved it! Especially the Pepper garlic shrimp , it was spicy but really good.“

“This place is a bit confusing because it's advertised online as an Indian restaurant and a diner but it's not either of those things. The inside atmosphere and the menu options are that of a restaurant, not a diner, and none of it is Indian. The food is excellent - many good salad and burger options, and great dinner entrees. Everything I've ever ordered from here has been good, is ready super fast, has always been correct, and packed well with condiments, etc for a to-go order. The hardest part of ordering/visiting here is there is never any parking. The parking lot next to the entrance is owned by another company and blocked off prohibiting access. Any time I have to pick up an order to go, I have to park down at the post office (about two blocks away), but the food has been consistently good so I will continue to order from here as long as I'm not in a rush.“

“One of the best India lunch I’ve had in a long time. Highly recommend it!! Going to soon visit the place. Wow incredible chicken tikka, dal, veggie, naan, rice and rice pudding. I felt nostalgic about the food, reminded me of India Mumbai. (Regret eating the food without taking picture) :)“

“A Flavorful Experience at Manjal Indian RestaurantI recently dined at Manjal Indian Restaurant and was thoroughly impressed by the culinary delights it had to offer. From the moment we stepped in, the warm ambiance welcomed us, setting the stage for a memorable dining experience.We started our culinary journey with the Chicken Biriyani and King Fish Fry, and both dishes exceeded our expectations. The Chicken Biriyani was fragrant, with perfectly cooked rice and tender chicken, while the King Fish Fry boasted a delightful crunch and burst of flavor with every bite.The attentive service further enhanced our experience, with the staff going above and beyond to ensure our satisfaction.To top off our meal, we indulged in two cups of Madras coffee, which were nothing short of perfection. Rich, aromatic, and with just the right balance of sweetness, it was the perfect conclusion to our dining experience.Overall, our visit to Manjal Indian Restaurant was nothing short of exceptional. With delicious food, impeccable service, and a welcoming atmosphere, it's a culinary gem that I would highly recommend to anyone seeking an authentic Indian dining experience.“

“My family and I have been coming here for years. This is the BEST restaurant in the area. The host Sridhar is the best, always on point, and accommodating to my daughter’s needs. The food has always been consistently awesome and will continue to come in the future.“

“So, so good. Great selection of food. The food came out quickly and was amazing. The servers were all very kind and hospitable. The restaurant itself was clean and nicely decorated. Definitely feels "fancy" without being insanely pricey. The chili cheese naan was definitely my favorite item, perfectly soft and wonderfully cheesy and spicy, but everything we ordered was fantastic.Vegetarian options: Indian restaurants never disappoint with delicious, flavorful veggie options, and this was no exception. There's a generous, clearly labelled vegetarian section, which I very much appreciate.“

“No offense intended. Food is excellent; however I'm not pleased with the convenience fee ($1.50) and carryout fee ($1.50)... what is up with that? So let me get this straight, you're going to charge me $1.50 to pack up an order which, by no option, is carryout because you're not a sit down restaurant? This is on top of the 3.5% credit card surcharge, and taxes. Not cool.Let's finish with the pricing of Bombay's menu. You're seriously getting outta hand with the pricing... pretty soon you'll price every dish in the mid $30 range. It's easy to drop $100 on two people for little in the quantity of food. This is why I decreased my patronage with you; but who cares about one person.Thanks“

“A+++ food. Highly recommend butter chicken (mild) for "beginners," but my favorite is the lamb rogan josh (medium). Onion kulcha and garlic naan are great for dipping. For a rice dish, I always get chicken or lamb biryani. For appetizers, we love veggie and lamb samosas, onion bhaji, and cauliflower pakora. In the past 12+ years, we've never had anything we didn't love, and this is what I chose for my birthday meal this year!Parking: Typical strip mall parking with plenty of room.“

“A personable, high quality and wonderful experience from the minute we walked in. Aditya was taking care of our table and he did a phenomenal job in taking care of all the individual requests pertaining to diet restrictions, choices and requirements. The owner took his time to come to our table and speak with us which was a genuine approach and care for their customers.Talking about food, I was shocked at the quality in a good way. While dal Bukhara is their famous dal, dal fry was not far behind either. It was well cooked and flavorful. The palak chaat is definitely a must try as well. A ton of variety to choose from. Highly recommend booking a reservation before going in because the place is packed especially on weekends.“
