New York Habitat

Awesomely quirky interior, cheap prices, and great food make this one of our Greenwich favorites. Get the chicken tikka roll or the paneer burji. Look out, the food here is spicy !

Nelly Magoo

Delicious Indian food with a large selection, including kebabs and succulent chicken tikka . Friendly and relaxed environment . Water is not readily available so being your own if eating in.

Amy Chen

I got the lamb curry box. The proportions are definitely good to split for two meals. It tasted delicious, though I definitely think they took it easy on me with spice level.

Rewan Parti

The chicken bhuna roll and paneer bhurji are the favorites. Late night snacks with Bollywood music blaring occasionally. You would see a lot of your drunk desi friends here at night.

Shrikant Shanbhag

This place is a great little joint for reviving nostalgic after college cafe bites around india. Most things on the menu are top notch but the kheema pav truly stands out.

Ajay Soni

Love this place.Excellent service . Awesome food. Love the paneer bhurji pav here and aam pana.

Zeba Siddiqi

Best place in macdougal! Bollywood music & amazing chicken malai roll. Try their paneer bhujri and also pav bhajii

Samantha Coulson

We had the chicken vindaloo and the chicken tikka masala , both were excellent! Vindaloo is super spicy , excellent!

Serious Eats

Cheap and satisfying kati roll spot. Paneer bhurji is a good vegetetarian option; the chicken bhuna roll carries more heat.

Kabir de Leeuw

Best Indian I've had in the neighborhood , and they do not shy away from making it spicy , unlike most places.

Jeff Solomon

The thought and anticipation of lamb bhuna roll at 3am on Saturday nights is what gets keeps me going throughout the rest of the week

Neilson Abeel

My favorites are the chana masala , chicken or lamb bhuna and the pav bhaji but I've never had anything bad here.

Andrew C

Came on a food tour , so we only tasted some egg dish and was just okay... but the menu looked authentic and the place smelled like curry , so I'd definitely want to visit and try other foods!!!

Manasi Gandotra

The kheema pav is so good! And if you ask them to make it spicy they actually do, like proper indian spicy ! It's awesome

Thomas Mo

Big portions . Chicken bhuna roll is a great choice. If you like spicy , dont forget to ask for 2 of the green chutneys .

The guy on the phone is hilariously rude but the chicken tikka is reallyy tasty. Too bad you can only get it accompanied with rice and sides (which are meh and take up a ton of packaging).
