Honest Restaurant East Windsor
I recently visited this Indian restaurant with moderate expectations, and I left feeling generally satisfied. The service was top-notch our server was attentive, knowledgeable, and friendly. The food, while not particularly memorable, was honest and authentic. The portions were generous, and the prices were reasonable. We ordered the Pav Bhaji, Tawa pulav, Chinese bhel, masala dosa and dahi puri, all of which were just ok and well-prepared. While the restaurant's ambiance was special, the warm and welcoming atmosphere made up for it. Recommended for: Casual dining, families, and those seeking Indian food.
Amazing and authentic Indian taste and experience. Pav bhaji is simply superb quality and taste! Every dish here is worth ordering. Clean and nice environment.
Zheng's Chinese Restaurant
One of the worst Chinese spots I've ever had. They're nothing like the ones back in New York. New York Chinese so fat, is exponentially better !! The general tso's chicken is too big to bite when hot and it's kinda mushy. It should be kinda crunchy !! The yellow rice I had looked off. I didn't like how it looked. Take my advice and down size your general tsos chicken, then make it crunchy !!
Really great food for a great price!!! Guy at the front is always polite and friendly with customers. He even brought the food out to the car for my grandmother. Food is really tasty and you get what you pay for.
Bawarchi Biryani Point
Overall it was just ok. Nothing really wrong, maybe not just my taste but nothing special that I’d go out of my way for. We tried a few dishes, food flavoring was a bit off. Dosa was very salty, chole was extremely spicy probably due to the green chilies used. (I understand individual peppers are just sometimes hotter so not always predictable) idly were good and tasted fresh, soft and spongy. Pakora were good as well. Biryani was also just ok, heavy on the potatoes vs other vegetables. Service was fine, a bit slow as they had a lot of takeout orders being worked on. (Always frustrating to hear that vs prioritizing customers dining in!) and it was clean and somewhat ordinary decor. All in all, perfectly fine meal but as I noted don’t feel it was anything special. YMMV.
This is a casual Indian restaurant that's popped up relatively recently. My parents love the biryani here, but we feel it's a bit weak when it comes to dosas. My mom's chicken tikka dosa came with small portions of sambar, and my chocolate dosa came with not quite enough chocolate sauce. The dosas weren't crispy and tasted a bit dry, if that makes sense, like there was too much flour (I realize dosas aren't made of flour, but whatever the equivalent is in the recipe) and not enough shortening and other things. The baby corn Manchurian was okay, and the mango lassi was good. I realize that since this is a biryani place, it's not strange that their biryani would be great while their other dishes would be weaker. However, I do expect that when going to a restaurant, all the dishes will taste decent enough, even if they're stronger in some areas than others. Because the dosas were really not great, and it was rather cold in the restaurant, I'm giving a 2.
Baguette Bistro Pho & Banh Mi
This is a self-service restaurant, order at the counter, pour yourself a cup of iced water, put the order number on your table. They will bring the food to your table, and they will clean up after you. Tip is optional and appreciate it. Food were good, staffs were friendly. Comfortable dining area. We like it.
Food is wonderful. The service is good and the price is excellent for the high quality of food you receive.
Khasiyat
Good place to have some indian food and try different stuffed parathas they offer, atleast they have around 80 types of parathas. We tried Jalapeno with Mint one its awesome. We also tried chole bhatura one of the best places to have chole bhatura, Masala pav is full of indian flavors
The make your own paratha with 5 toppings which is a great idea. You get the basic north indian and south indian food. You can also get a platter with roti n veggies. The food is excellent and i suggest you mix n match food to get a the flavor of the foods.
Dosa Grill
The food was amazing! Specially loved the gunpowder dosa and masala chai. Took 1 star off because I didn't quite like the sambar that tasted like simple daal mostly. We ordered: 1. Gunpowder dosa 2. Chilly Onion Masala Dosa 3. Mix bajji (Pakoras) 4. Masala chai
I now have to add Dosas to my lunch/dinner rotation. All of my South Indian former classmates and colleagues have been holding out on me and never told me about Dosas. Went in this place completely open minded without any expectations about Dosas. Has their top end Mumbai Street Dosa filed w potatoes and veggies and accompanied by some Chutneys and a dipping curry. Beats the usual occasional routine of a vegetarian gyro/wrap/taco/burrito. Nice crispy exterior ultra thin crepe exterior contrasted by the curry infused veggies inside. Glad I went in open minded to try something new since I have never travelled in my life to South Asia.
Mahzu Japanese Restaurant East Windsor
Delicious food! Everyone enjoyed their meals and cleaned their plates. Enormous portions if ordering the hibachi! They prepared food first for someone in our group that has a shellfish allergy!
Had a horrible experience. Went on a Friday night for table seating, not hibachi. It took 20 minutes for us to be even acknowledged once we sat down. My water glass was dirty 3 times, with caked on black gunk inside the glass. After the third time, I gave us asking for a new one. My food tasted a bit burnt, but my partner enjoyed his. The table next to us also could not get a server to take their order. Overall a poor experience. I will not be back. My partner may be for take out sushi, but will not dine in again.
Spice Wok
This is a casual Indo-Chinese restaurant with floor-to-ceiling glass windows, providing a nice view of the exterior. Orders are taken by a waiter, as normal, but the food is served with a robot server. The robot goes very slowly, so there's no reason to be scared of it. This place is great for families, friends, and large groups. The food comes in huge portions for a good price, and is very tasty. The tempura ice cream is enough for two, and as our server mentioned, 2 entrees are about 25 oz, so enough for a family of three like us, especially with appetizers. We ordered the drums of Heaven (chicken drumsticks), crispy chilli baby corn, stir fry beef, combo fried rice, Manchurian shrimp, and fried ice cream, which came out to $113 including the service charge. We ended up packing one entree and one appetizer, and were insanely full by the end, so you could definitely just order fewer dishes and have a bill closer to $70 for three people. On the day we went, several of the dishes were unavailable, e.g. they were out of paneer. Since we came before the dinner rush and were the only people there, I felt this didn't reflect the best planning or inventory strategy. If a restaurant ends up out of a certain item, I'd expect it to be midway through dinner, not before dinner has even started. Still, the menu is expansive, and the food (especially the baby corn and chicken drumsticks) was great, so I'd recommend a visit anyway. One thing to note: I'd highly recommend bringing your own water bottles, as there's no tap water, only bottled water that you have to pay for. I didn't know this, as it was my first time, but we saw that most other families brought their own water bottles.
Ignore all the negative reviews, We are a group of 12 and we still chose Spice wok because of the large seating, and we are glad. Thanks for the good service and yummy food. Lollipop chicken was talked about a lot in the reviews, but it's Just different than the normal lollipop chicken it's great. Otherwise, the Momos, Mongolian beef, chili shrimp, chicken 65, orange chicken, etc, were all scrumptious.
Yummy Fusion 蜀香阁
Came for dinner with my son. The food was pretty good, fish was fresh. Service was very attentive. Nice selection of rolls. Enjoyed appetizers the most.
Came here with a big groups and our server was so patient with us. All food that we ordered were sooo good. Highly recommended this place!
Biryani Pot East Windsor
Had been to restaurant for a Friday evening- had good expectations on appetizers but all the appetizers are bland and not much as expected. Though the suggested dishes are said to be good but it was-bland. Not so good. People who want to have bland food this is suggested otherwise a BIG NO.
Food was great. We had Karvapaku chicken and Kaaram Podi chicken for appetizer, and a few Hyderabadi Biryani for entree. Food was amazing, flavor was excellent.
Asian Halal Meat & Kebab House
Small place nothing special. Meat prices much higher compared to other halal butcher shops. Closed on Monday or Tuesday? Mixed messaging. Not sure.
We ordered from the Asian Halal Meant & Kebab House three times already (via GrubHub) and on all three occasions we were quite satisfied with our orders. The kebabs (both Seekh lamb kebab and Afghan chicken kebab) were delicious. The mixed vegetables were very good too. The restaurant follows its customers' requests with utmost attention; when we asked for double wrapping (for the food to stay warm), it was duly noted and properly executed. Unlike many other Indian or Pakistani area restaurants, rice is not included and have to be purchased separately. However, much lower prices (e.g. some kebabs are priced $7.99 vs $13.99 offered at other restaurants) do fully make up for it.
Vatan Indian Vegetarian Cuisine & Bakery, East Windsor, NJ
Khaman dhokla is a must try here, pillowy soft, very fresh & right balance of taste & flavors Naan, tandoori roti - good 👍🏻 They have an extensive menu & no bread basket which is disappointing 🤦🏻♀️ Quantity of Chhole served with 2 bhature is less Paneer makhani was okay Methi matar malai - sabzi taste is good - but peas was barely 50% cooked which killed the taste of the sabzi Some of the methi gota had raw batter inside It wasn’t a busy day - we were the only ones ordering food .. and yet this blunder .. If they improve their sabzi portion sizes & check for doneness, they could do better! Menu is extensive .. but dishes are a hit or miss .. so it’s important to read reviews of what to order
Before I begin my review, I want to give a huge shoutout to Shawn (employee) for going above and beyond. He handles a busy restaurant so well and shows love for what he does. His customer service is amazing and we look forward to seeing him anytime we come to Vatan. I hope he gets recognized because he truly deserves it. As for the food, it was delicious. The wait times were slightly long but again, Shawn came and apologized, which went a long way. We didn’t mind waiting. There were some unique finds that we don’t see at typical Indian restaurants, which I loved! Below are some pictures of what we ate! Highly recommend checking it out. We drive an hour just for Vatan!
