“I am surprised I haven't heard of this place before. Based on the former (and few) reviews, this place was called something else. So maybe perhaps it's under new management now? Anyways, I came here for a friend's Nikah (engagement ceremony) and I could tell it easily accommodated 150 people. It's not too far from Bellozino, a different banquet hall where my sister's wedding was held. I wish I had known about this place before. I liked the high ceilings and price per head is supposedly cheaper than the Bellozino. There's a big stage that can accommodate large group pictures. The only downside (not really though) is that there is no valet parking, at least not that I know of. However, I realized through experience that most attendees tend to avoid the valet parking anyway. Food was really tasty too.“
“Ruma's Kitchen, specializing in Bengali food, is a gem that I recently discovered while catering an event. I was pleasantly surprised by the reasonable prices, which made it an excellent choice for our event. Beyond the affordability, the food surpassed our expectations, delivering a delightful and flavorful experience. Ruma's Kitchen delivered a delightful catering experience, and I couldn't be happier with their service. Five stars all the way!“
“Amazing Indian food in a relaxing and chic setting. Great price for a Michelin star restaurant and service is fantastic. My favorites were the dosa and the mung beans. The squash kurma was a bit bland compared to the other dishes. The cocktails were also incredible.“
“Out of this world creative Indian cuisine. The atmosphere is perfect setting for friend, couples, and families. With a diverse bar selection you can find amazing mixed drinks and local brewed beers on tap. From Fermented Dosa to Lamb Chapli Kebab the starters are brilliant. As you make your way to the main courses the Sea Bream Ssam is so tasty, if you’re in the mood go for the seared prawns or maybe even the Mushroom Uttapam. To finish off the night they have a nice selection of desserts like cashew baklava or the ganache cake is amazing with warm chocolate sauce, rose ice cream, and cardamom salt. To top off the experience the staff are warm welcoming and very kind! Come on by, right on 7th Avenue in the heart of Park Slope, Brooklyn NY!“
“Everything was great! This is my second time coming here with my girlfriend and the food was just as great as the first time. Everything was full of flavor and the service was top tier. The place is also very clean and the staff are all friendly. This is a must-visit. I highly recommend the cheese naan, butter chicken, goat briyani and mango lassi of course.“
“Great new place! Entrée's were pretty good. Really authentic. We had bhendi masala, vegetable jalfreji, and yellow dal. All were really yummy! Rotis were great too. Appetizers could have been a bit better. Service was really top class. Loved the ambiance.“
“Recently moved to Williamsburg, and as a vegetarian, I’ve been so excited to try a variety of restaurants. We made a reservation and when we arrive, there was about a five minute wait. We had absolutely no problem with that as typically there are weights at restaurants, even with a reservation, but a man who I believe was the manager brought us water and an appetizer to snack on while we waited and apologized more times than necessary. Best part is when we did sit down and have dinner. This ended up being the best Indian food I’ve ever had! Excited to come back and try the rest of the menu!“
“This restaurant was fantastic and we are so happy leaving there. They went out of their way for us, especially Monzu who went especially above and beyond to meet our needs. I had a weird request that they didn’t normally have on the menu and he made it with such pleasure and utmost hospitality. The food was fresh, delicious and plentiful. We will definitely be returning. Homey, cozy vibes and comfortable atmosphere. Quality food and amazing service- can’t ask for more. GO HERE!“
“I was on a work trip and have very special eating needs and Hemant and staff really came through for me on very short notice!!! I will forever remember and HIGHLY recommend to anyone!!! Thank you Hemant and Staff for going above and beyond for me!! Darcy T.“
“Man what an experience. I never felt pain all over my face until I had the Rouge Big Rowdy Sandwich. If you can handle spice get medium because Rouge genuinely made it impossible to enjoy the Sandwich. After a long break I tried my friend’s sandwich, and it was delicious. Mango lassi was sweet and cold and perfect for when my face was burning.8.5/10“
“Harsh was educational and kind about the different dishes we were served from beginning to end. This was my first time at Vatan. At the end, as a dairy free consumer, a dessert was given to me that was dairy free dessert, that’s call soan papi and I appreciated that soo much!“
“My favorite takeout Indian in the area! I usually go Chicken 65 for an appetizer which has (in my opinion) the perfect spicy level between flavor and spicy. For meals, you can’t go wrong with the Chicken Tikka Masala (or Vindaloo) + Garlic “
“I had the chicken Tikka, garlic Naan and mango lassi. Everything was decent. Tikka masala has a decent amount of chicken and was seasoned. Garlic Naan wasn't too garlicy There is a promotion for free mango lassi with a Google review. Restaurant is clean. Service could be improved. I entered the restaurant and no one inquired about seating. It also took them some time before they came over to take our order. They did not come to check on us throughout our meal.“
“Came here with a large group of friends and had an incredible time! Everything I ate and drank was absolutely delicious and tasted so authentic. I would definitely recommend the Golgappa as an appetizer and the Lotan ke Chole as an entree! Add the Pipli cocktail and it’s a perfect night :)“
“Decent food, but I was expecting more as it is a Michelin Star restaurant. We choose the Executive Lunch, Kashmir special. Food was good, but nothing that would blow your mind. The ambience was nice, staff was attentive and the drinks menu was good. A satisfying experience but makes you expect more.“
“Great food and drinks!! The first bite of our appetizer took me back to India. One of the best Indian places I have tried in NYC. Below are the drinks, appetizers and entrees that we tried and can’t recommend them enough.Drinks: Drop the Beet, Silk Road, Old Fashioned, The Golden ChariotAppetizers: Nilgiri chicken and kalonji paneerEntree: Rajwadi Paneer, chicken tikka masala, garlic naan and onion- chilli naanMy husband and I can’t wait to be back and try more items from their menu. Hoping we can try their brunch as well!“
“From outside it looks like Small boutique Restaurant specializing in Indian cuisine & I just found it while roaming around streets of New York during recent visit & this accidental discovery didn't let me down, food quality & quantity both are amazing, owner is present almost from 11 am to 11 pm & staff is courteous, highly recommended as I visited all the sought after restaurants in town but this one stands out for the gourmet Indian food.“
“We've ordered delivery from here many times in the past. This was our first time eating here. Food is even better fresh. Staff was very friendly and service was excellent. We were lucky to walk in and get a table for 2 at 6pm Friday as the place was full.“
“Hands down one of the best authentic Indian food we had in NYC. Everything was so fresh. The owner was very welcoming and truly showcased “atithi devo bhava”. It felt like home. They customized the paneer tikka for my kid and she loved it. Would absolutely visit this place again.. and again.. kudos!!“
“Baingan bartha & Dal tadka are 10/10. The baingan bartha is easily their top dish, super rich, with the right amount of sour + sweet + spice. The dal tadka is so wholesome, a little high on garlic. I would recommend the “desi spice” level as the flavors can be a bit mellow otherwise. The paneer was okay - not the softest and the flavors are pretty typical. 20% tip is mandatory and included.“
“Food is deeply flavored amazing classic Indian food, coconut naan is extra delicious, lovely calm music, soft lighting nice art and comfy chairs, corkage fee for wine is only €5 bring for yourself a nice dry riesling this place is amazing!“
“The best kebabs in the US so far! I had the Goat Doori kebab sheermal and it melted in the mouth with so many flavors. Its a must eat here. The Andhra Chilli Chicken is really hot and spicy. Do mention spice level for chilli chicken if not you will experience the spice level like never before. I loved the saffron pancakes with the dry ice on it with beautiful presetation. The sweet potato chat was good too. Overall Super tasty food items on the menu. I would defintiely try others next time.“
“Came for momos, left extremely satisfied! Their steamed chicken momos taste authentically Nepali, and the aachar (sauce) is the right amount of savory and spicy. Excellent service and great atmosphere and music. I'll be back to try the chili and jhol momos!“
“Diminutive space with down-at-heel appearance —but the urban decay is part of the charm. The samosa and aloo tikki were good. Both are potato heavy but herb seasoning is present and noted and flavorful. They’re large, hot and filling. Great option for cheap filling hot snack if you have cash. $3/ each. Cash only. The English spoken here is barebones strictly transactional English.Vegetarian options: Pretty sure everything here is vegetarian.“
“Chill to the max and proper Indian. I feel transported back to India when I am there.The garlic naan as good as in Delhi. When I need cheering up and great food I make it there. The music in the background is not bad and not too loud.The service is stellar as Miguel is cool and he tells you what to get and he is always right on point. If you are in the mood for some libation, it is BYOB.I must admit also love the cheese naan. Can never get to the desert as I order too much to start.See you in the neighborhood.Vegetarian options: All that you could ever want and even vegan options.“
“It's not easy to find Goan food, so this was more than a pleasant surprise. Beautifully balanced flavors and seasonings. Highly recommend the coconut shrimp appetizer as well as the jackfruit biryani. Might be too spicy for some, especially children. Attentive staff, and nice atmosphere.“
“The food and service here were pretty spectacular! The Achari mushrooms and Cauliflower Manchurian were my favorite appetizers! (I'm a meat lover so I'm amazed at how they made Cauliflower taste like Sesame Chicken!!) For entrees, I would highly recommend the Lamb Rogan Josh, so tender and juicy and bursting with flavor! Also, the Tandoori Salmon is a must have because it was seasoned, smoked and cooked to perfection!! Beba was our server and she was so patient and kind with a group who couldn't make up their minds! And lastly, please check out the bartender (I think his name was Sean, but I could be way off :/...I blame the a-a-alcohol..) He makes a mean cocktail and he is not at all stingy with the good stuff ?.“
“Amazingly DELICIOUS very great menu alot to choose from I wanted it all so I started with the salmon tikka I’ll be back to try everything else !!!Tanmay our server was very helpful and hooked us up with mango desert, he’s super cool and welcoming !!!!“
“I came in today and honestly I have never tasted such a delicious and tasty briani. From every bite that I was taking I could feel the passion and care behind this dish and the sauces completed the dish perfectly ! It’s an amazing restaurant I highly recommend and will be back soon !“
“Ordered the Charred Chicken Bowl, and I must say, it was phenomenal. It had a flavour that was unbeknownst to me in a bowl. The coconut ranch mixed with the habanero sauce, really do create a unique flavour profile. Also, the chicken marination was something that was brand new to me. Do give it a try!“
“I visit Veeray da Dhaba with not very high expectations because frankly speaking it’s very difficult to find good Indian food outside South Asia. But I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of food at this place. I had ordered saag paneer which was flavorful and had a freshness to it that is rare to find in curries in Indian restaurants. The lime soda was refreshing too with just the right amount of tanginess and spiciness to it. Serving size was pretty decent. Rotis were hot and crispy. Service was friendly and efficient. I found the ambience warm and unpretentious. And above all, that pretty decent meal with a drink costed me just 20+ bucks — so easy on the pocket too. I look forward to visiting it again on my next visit to the town.“
“Loved my time here! Amazing and authentic food. We ordered the off-menu Goan mega Thali’s that you have to call two days in advance for. We got the king fish thali, boneless salmon thali, vegetable thali, lobster tikka masala and the best chai in nyc. Beautiful decor as well!“
“Curry and Handi has delicious, truly fresh, and flavorful food. I think it is the best Indian food I have had since visiting India 2 years ago. As a vegetarian I appreciate the offerings and highly recommend the broccoli tandori. The service is excellent as well.“
“I came toward the end of their service hours, about 9:20 and was greeted warmly. Service was impeccable and the food was so delicious. I usually get Indian food in Astoria along 30th Ave. None compare to Cardamom. They are not huge and doesn’t seat many, but it is clean, well decorated and the staff is friendly and attentive.I had the lamb methi curry, vegetable samosa, naan and mango lassi. All were perfectly delicious and beautifully presented.If I were to have one complaint it would be that the methi curry could’ve been spicier since I ordered at the highest spice level and found it to be just mild. Still delicious though.I will come here instead of my usual haunts.“
“My favorite restaurant of all time. I've gone through at least half the menu and you can't go wrong with anything you order. Would most strongly recommend the daal as an accompaniment and the treacle for dessert, those are my two "musts" every visit.“
“This was my first time trying Indian Food Ever, so I was a little nervous and scared! I arrived, and I was greeted by the lovely manager Tina, she geared us to the bar while our table was ready, and recommended some great drinks, it was less than a 5 minute wait! When I say the eggplant and garlic appetizer was out of this world! The flavors were so unique, and just outright delicious. We then ordered the tiger prawns, which was a surprisingly large serving, topped off by the mint and cilantro cream, I was licking my fingers, after, the pot of lamb with basmati rice, felt like we were eating in someones home eatings moms cooking, topped off by delicious milk dessert, I couldn't have picked a better place to dine. The service was great, all my food arrived right after the other, the servers were so helpful describing every dish, and breaking it down for me. The manager Tina checked on our table, always made sure we were having excellent time.Just the ambiance of the entire restaurant, everyone enjoying the food/music, makes you remember why NYC is so great!“
“This restaurant was very good and the servers were very sweet and diligent. The curry was delicious and filling just how we like it. It is a beautiful upscale restaurant but still has reasonable prices for the food and drinks. We would definitely recommend this place“
“I went here with my dad, it was nice, quiet, room temperature and well lit.The service was great ?? they came to check on us every few long minutes and we’re very friendly and kind.The food was so good!! If you don’t know what to order they can recommend things for you based on your taste. The garlic Nan was SO YUMMMy flavorful and soft !! And the rice was soft and the meat was well cooked and spiced. I ordered chicken Korma And my dad got salmon mansala. We both ordered a mango lassi and it’s sweetAnd smooth Everything was great I definitely will be coming back!“
“We came here for on a weekday for lunch and got seated right away. Initially we wanted to order off the lunch special menu but be advised the lunch special menu is for take-out only! We ended up ordering the Tikka Masala, Mango Lassi, and Lamb Vindaloo. The food was very flavorful and delicious! Our server was great and friendly. Highly recommend!“
“This place is an amazing find so close to Times Square! If you are in the are don't miss the opportunity to have dinner, or lunch here. The ambiance is great for a date night, the food is so flavorful and delicious, and the staff are so friendly and attentive.“
“5 stars is not enoughLove the breakfast specialThe Haleem is made with beef not lamb. Everything so flavorful.Seekh kebab very well spicedGreat samosas. Daal puri good when fresh.Don't care for the rolls, biryani, or lollipopVegetarian options: Daal puri fresh hot delicious“
“The owners are amazing The inside is amazing you have to come there with your family very delicious beautiful food and I don't go out to a lot of restaurants but this is one of the best I've been to hospitality is awesome trust me.“
“Wow, this was one of the best meals I've ever had. Every dish was perfectly cooked, seasoned and presented. The flavors were subtle and delicate and each bite was exquisite, you could tell the chefs cared deeply about their food. I am blown away.“
“We always get seated immediately and the server, Christopher, has always shown us kindness. Christopher's warmth and hospitality always make dining here a memorable experience. Christopher's genuine care and attention to detail elevate the dining experience, as he always remembers our orders. Every visit to this restaurant feels like coming home.“
“At first glance, you would think this shop is just a wholesaler, but to my surprise you can actually buy boxes too!! They have a wide array/variety of sweets and all of them looked heavenyl. The gentleman whowas running the place is extremely professional and helpful. He allowed me to sample 4-5 pieces of the sweet itself. I ended up buying 4 small boxes and 2 big boxes. Toally affordable priced as well! My favorite was definitely the “Mango barfi” which is a milk based sweet. I finally have a place i can go to for all my sweet needs! Especially since it is Ramadan and sweets are necessary for every iftaar.“
“Hands down best dosa, idli, vada, chutney, upma, pongal, mysore pak, and madras coffee. You can do Abhishek in Ganesh temple upstairs on a full stomach. Very satisfying and may improve your karma! Just not on a weekend though when it's crazy packed.“
“Actually looked for a good indian restaurant near macys and so happy we dined here. It definitely was very delicious and the owner helped us with our orders. We loved our appetizer that he suggested and when we commented on how good it was, he brought us another. Butter chicken was great along with garlic naan. Can't wait for the next time we can visit again. Iris and emilyVegetarian options: Serves lots of veggie choice including the use of delicious pomegranates“
“Win Win Win! Finding this place was a win, we now have our official go-to Indian restaurant. They did everything right, the atmosphere is one of a simple, authentic Indian restaurant on the lower east side. As soon as you walk in you smell the amazing aromas, the place was packed, and they were very attentive to us. We placed and order and EVERYTHING tasted amazing. The naan was so so so good, but really everything was. The service was really personal and friendly. We had a great time, we ate and drank well we left happy. Give this place a shot.“
“This was a delivery order. They nailed it. The dish I ordered said spicy and I asked for it not to be spicy. Perfectly prepared ?. The food was nice and hot and the delivery man was so sweet. I will definitely eat here again. Thank you for making my night. Money well spent.“
“Me and my girlfriend always enjoy getting takeout here. It is tucked away in a quieter part of Woodside and they serve high quality Nepalese food. We especially like the Thali's which consists of different kinds of food on a platter (think Banchan but larger portions). They consist of: protein (typically in a curry), lentils, vegetable curry, rice, raw red onion/lemon/slightly bitter green vegetable/chili pepper. The combination of all of these ingredients make the dish so appetizing as there are different textures and tastes.“
