I went in around 4:30 pm Friday afternoon. Guy was very attentive, I already knew what I wanted when I walked in, so I ordered. (Chicken tika Masala) food was amazing!!! Only down side about this place is I could have had more. But NYC isn't a cheap place, so I get it.
Monir is a wonderful, friendly host. I come all the way over to this location even though there are other Indian restaurants in the upper east side that I live closer to, because of the delectable quality of the food, and much of it being to the friendliness and environment. Wonderful restaurant, many thanks to Monir for making it a great environment. Every item that I’ve ordered here has left me very fulfilled - as someone who’s explored Indian Cuisine in all places. The music playing is a line above other restaurants, using pre-2000s Indian classics, along with the dark wood and stone ambiance inside. Beautiful restaurant.
Food was great tasting. The staff were attentive but too be fair we were the only ones there. Spicy is spicy so if your not advanced in spicy food keep it mild. I would have certainly preferred/ expected more food for the price. Fancy presentation of the food also. Great for a date night.
Very nice inside, the food was very delicious, I asked them to give me their spiciest lamb meal, and it was super delicious. The waiter was very respectful with us Monir was his name, talked about his culture, and gave us everything we needed. This place is very much a nice Indian cuisine. 20$ - 30$ meals which is very affordable for New York City. I would love to come again here, the food was very good. The atmosphere overall was very relaxing. 11/10 stars (Lamb Vindaloo is what I got, and it was delicious)
If you want to taste the authentic indian dish this place is a gem!! Worth it every penny. They gave us fresh food during our visit. The owner treats us like a family. Spice level are tolerable for a non spice person like me. Best indian restaurants I have ever experienced!!! Will visit again.
I found this hidden Gem from the aroma of great food from the street. The chicken tikka masala and butter Nann was delicious. I would send a friend here.
Really enjoyed Anand! Had Samosas, cheese-filled paratha, mango chicken and the mushroom mattar. All excellent, and the chutneys that came with the samosas were particularly good. Would recommend!
