So... this was voted 'Best Indian Food in NJ' ?
I don't think so...!
First, if you saw a Website, that featured a photo of a dining room, set up as a Buffet... one might think it's a 'dine in' Restaurant ... it's not...
The storefront you see, has no access to 'indoors'
You order outside! ( or call ahead)
So , OK, I asked for their menu... and he placed the QR Code for me to access...
Oddly, and I did find it questionable... the next person to approach, who was of the same cultural persuasion as the 'host', asked to see a menu, and was given an actual menu!
We ordered, 20 minute wait... we were # 80...
After a sit in our car, I went to fetch the already paid for food, and was told "coming up soon"...
As I stood there, observing... I saw all the takeout bags lined up, and people were picking up orders... but I saw where this occurred, and suddenly he went to an area where the bags were, and picked one that had been sitting there... and it was ours... and it was ready when I came back.. but he made me wait! Wtf?
As he handed it to me, I inquired "why when I asked for a menu, you gave me a QR Code... the person after me asked, and you gave gladly him an actual menu, why?"
Well, he gave it his best "homina homina", and shrugged his shoulders... I said , "yeah, OK, I get it"
I could have overlooked all of it, except when we got home, the food was crap.
Mostly reheated older samosa, pakoras, and overall just awful !
I've been a fan of, and have eaten Indian food, for well over 30 years, and can actually prepare some dishes myself...
We live in Piscataway, close to Edison, and Iselin, which all are Meccas for Indian...
I would never go back, my partner found it inedible, I ate it, out of hunger, but it was terribly sub-standard, and would never go back, nor would I recommend it.
Not to mention, it went right through me this morning!
Horrible experience!
