I have been eating Polash since they first opened 15+ years ago on 119 & 3rd and their food is just as good now as it was back then! Highly recommend the samosas, tikka, tandoori, shrimp madras (ask for it spicy) & cheese poori but we have had so many dishes over the years and everything is always delicious so try it all
I visited Polash last month with some girlfriends and had the most delicious dinner in central Harlem. They have the softest, tastiest meat dishes. All the food exceeded expectations!
Ordered their chicken tikka masala and cheese naan for delivery. The tikka masala was super hearty, as opposed to other Indian restaurants, where it can often be thin/runny. Also, they give you a small container of delicious pea soup as a bonus. Definitely a bang for your buck, I’ll be ordering from them again.
The best Indian food I had in very long time a d the service was on point and awesome I would recommend everyone to try out their food
Apparently moved to this new location after 18 years a few blocks up. Have to say I was impressed with both the food and the service I received. The staff was extremely friendly and went out of their way to make you feel comfortable . I ordered chickpeas with spinach and garlic nan. Both very good and on par with other good Indian food in the city. Comes with a small container of rice and a soup. The soup was outstanding. A yellow lentil or pea soup hard to tell but spiced very well with the appropriate amount of seasoning. Only two tables on site but Pro Tip: There is a park with a bathroom and tables at the school on 118th between 1st and 2nd ( Not Open Sundays ). I ate there in the bright sunlight. Very nice lunch. Price was fair for what you get. Recommended.
Love this spot, some of my fav comfort food by far in the neighborhood. Staff are always friendly.
I remember maybe 10 years ago when they had their restaurant location on third Avenue, I came here with my mom and grandma and sat inside to eat their lunch buffet. Now that they’re on first Avenue, they’re more of a takeout location but the ingredients are just as I remembered them and now they’re even closer to my home! This is what I describe as comfort food for the SOUL! This place always puts a smile on my face with the delicious tastes, fresh ingredients and price. My favorites by far are the chicken tikka masala, the fried rice, and the samosas, both veggie and chicken. The only thing I wish they had was pani puri but it’s amazing nonetheless. I wish I had photos to show you but I DEVOURED my order so I have nothing to show for it! Hahahahha! Don’t walk, RUN to Polash for amazing Indian cuisine.
