South Asian Food in Greenwich Village

“Cute, yummy, and cozy! Mint Masala is one of my regular go-to restaurants in the area. The different curries are creamy and delicious, and they can adjust the level of spiciness to your needs. Their vegetable samosas are great and their lentil soup is perfect for a winter day. They have a vegetarian section and other options that can be made vegetarian. It’s a small spot, so I recommend checking in before heading there!”

“It was a wonderful experience. I got the lunch special with chicken tikka masala. The portion size was very good (It could honestly be split between two people if you are not super super hungry). Great atmosphere, there was some light music playing in the background. My server, Puja, was awesome and made sure my friend and I were well taken care of. The wait time was minimal (3:30pm on a Monday).”

“The food was delicious! Our server, James, was very hospitable and attentive. We loved the chicken saag and samsosa chaat!”

“We loved the food. It has one of the best naans in Newyork and samosas too. The malai kofta was also mouthwatering. We visited twice in 15 days because this restaurant served great taste at a reasonable rate. Not to forget, the supervisor James was an amazing host. The Bollywood playlist that in the background was addictive 🤩”

“Freshly prepared delicious, authentic, and moderately priced Indian food! Need I say more?”

“We followed the Indian food delivery guys into this lovely little hole in the wall on MacDougal Street as they sat down to eat. Suman, our waiter, was friendly and very informative. Our order of Dal Gosht lamb and lentil curry and lamb biryani were delicious and freshly prepared to order. The check for a meal of this quality was so reasonable that we felt that we were the ones who had made a profit after enjoying such a delectable dinner.”

“Great little spot. The food was good -- really good chicken biriyani & shrimp curry. The service was so friendly on top of it!”

“Very delicious Indian food. I’ve tried to order something new every single time and I’ve never been disappointed here. The quality of everything is very consistent which isn’t always guaranteed at any restaurant. On one occasion I went in for their lunch special and I got a good amount of food for a very good price. I almost always order delivery and the food travels very well and arrives at my door pretty quickly.”

“Best Indian restaurant in nyc, kunga is the waitress to ask for. Food is amazing here. Make sure to do a reservation”

“My favorite local Indian spot! Service is great, food is delicious. Delivery is also quick, and food arrived hot. They have a great lunch special too. Prices are fair, especially given the large portions. I can often get two meals out of one entree! Definitely give it a try! Chana masala, palak paneer, veggie samosa, aloo Gobi and garlic naan are my favorites. Oh, and many great vegetarian options too!”

“Authentic bhindi sabji perfect for a nostalgic student looking for some home cooked style food.”

“Every dish was excellent, especially the palak paneer and chicken samosas. The staff was kind and caring.”

“Tried this small restaurant first time after a busy day in the city for dinner. We ordered Roghani Josh lamb and Daal Tadka with Naan and mangoe lassi. Everything was well prepared and freshly done. The service was awesome and the waitress Lobsang was prompt and extremely knowledgeable about the food and suggested good dishes. Topped off the dinner with some warm and moist Gulab jamun. Awesome food. We will be back.”

“I recently visited this restaurant with my friends and I must say that this is the best Indian restaurant in the area. We tried butter chicken with Kulcha, veg biryani and paneer masala. The food was so yummy 😋 The owners are so involved with every customer to provide the best food and services. I am definitely visiting the restaurant whenever I want to try Indian food. Oops! I forgot about the Mango lassi and Rasmalai which was home made😋😋”
