Mughlai Indian Cuisine

As a British Male, living in the USA, trying to find genuine Indian cuisine that is close to anything we have back in the UK (I am talking regular weekly visits to Brick Lane) I have to lower my expectations when trying "Indian Cuisine" in the US. MUGHLAI HIT THE SPOT! Chicken 65 to start, fantastic. So good I didn't want to spoil my main of Lamb Vindaloo. The Vindaloo was thick, rich and full of flavour. Nothing watery or runny as I have experienced with many other imitation Indian restaurants. Mughlai is the real deal. The host was very warm and welcoming. So much so she got an appreciation hug from me because my experience was the closest to my UK experiences to date! Thank you to all at Mughlai. I will 110% be returning and will recommend to anyone visiting NYC.

We came here on Saturday for lunch, ordering garlic naan to share and chicken vindaloo. Garlic naan was quite tasty, chicken vindaloo was a nice balance of spicy, tangy, and creamy. The servers were also quite nice - attentive without being overbearing. I also appreciated that there wasn’t any line and was very reasonably priced.

Had a wonderful meal at Mughali (55th St). Warm environment, clean and stylishly decorated. Quaint and Cozy. Sid, our server was a highlight. Great personality and gave great recommendations. Food came out quickly and was hot and well presented and prepared. I got the chicken tikka masala, and my friend got the goat briyani. Highly recommend both. Well seasoned and hot. The briyani did have some spice on the end but was not overwhelming. Definitely hit this spot if you're looking for good Indian at an extremely reasonable price.

we love this restaurant so much. The owner and the waiters were so kind to us and so down to earth for us. The food as well was absolutely delicious and we loved every single review that our server gave us. Talking about our server we had a man named Siddharth and he was so nice he gave us such fun, lighthearted jokes, and he also took pictures for us, so nice. if you’re looking for a recommendation, please go here and get the chicken tikka masala.

Amazing food and extremely friendly staff. I had a spicy lamb biriyani. My recommendation is to take it milder than your regular spicy level. The chef here takes their spiciness seriously and I love that.

Authentic indian cuisine, super nice staff, and good price. I really enjoyed this dinner and will definitly go there again.

During our trip from Denmark to NYC, my wife and I, both originally from Sri Lanka, were craving some Indian food. After trying a few places, we discovered Mughlai Indian Cuisine, and it was a lovely experience. This cozy restaurant near Times Square delivered everything we hoped for—authentic, flavorful dishes that reminded us of home. From the perfectly spiced curries to the lovely indian desserts, every bite was a delight. The service was outstanding, with a warm and attentive staff who made us feel welcome and cared for. Combined with its convenient location and inviting atmosphere, Mughlai Indian Cuisine is a must-visit for anyone seeking authentic Indian food in NYC.
