Masala Cafe

Randomly visited this place for lunch, first of all this place is not good for dine in because of its ambience. They have washroom in the dining area and dining area stinks. I asked manager to spray room freshener!! Talking about food we ordered chicken 65, Gobi Manchurian dry and chicken biryani. Take was good enough 3/5 rating.

One word review : Disaster We ordered Indochinese schz fried rice , mysore dosa , chicken biryani , pomfret , tea and can of coke and gulajamun Indo chinese schz fried rice : This is just a slap in the name of indo chinese. This was served with peas mutter in it. Please stop ruining indo chinese food with peas in it.. they served it with a so called schz chutney which was tomato and water Chicken biryani : it was a pulav with 2 chicken pieces , and low on salt Pomfret was low on masala and low on salt as well The dosa was edible. Although the chutney weren't fresh but the dosa one of the items which were edible.. samber was hot water with boiled daal.. Chai teA : it was just boiled water with powdered tea and trust me I am not even exaggerating Gulab jamun : although they tasted good , they were at least 2 days old and not hot. Just warmed up in the microwave oven I think .. The only good thing about our food was the coke.. No wonder the restaurant was empty on a busy night Please take these criticisms positively and improve.. Stay away as far as you can . Trust me and stay away

My friends and I randomly came here and the food was honestly amazing. I got the spicy boneless chicken biryani and it was definitely a 10/10. My friends got the chicken vindaloo and lamb masala which they loved. The garlic naan was nice and soft with crispy edges. We’re not Indian so we’re unable to speak on the authenticity of the taste but the cooks and servers are Indian so I doubt the food isn’t also authentically Indian. The bowls may look a bit small from the pictures but the portions were extremely reasonable for the price. The three of us were able to share each dish equally. The service was also amazing.

The food was not particularly memorable. I wouldn't bother leaving a review except I'm annoyed that they garnished the food with cilantro, despite my calling and specifically asking them not to. If you have allergies or strong food preferences you might want to try somewhere a little more attentive.

We are ordered 3 things. 1. Samosa - It does not taste like it does back in india but the red sweet chutney was good. The green spicy chutney was very bad it was frozen. 2. Chhole bhature - I did not expect to have such an amazing chhole. It looked great and tasted much better. 3. Mysore Masala Dosa - The dosa was good with the masala, but the chutney's and the sambhar did not have any taste. The hotel was untidy, and we were not even offered water to drink. Not sure if the norms in NYC are different. But I have never been to a hotel were I have not been offered water/drink with the menu.

Nice restaurant. Pretty decent tasting food. Friendly staff. Best thing was very quick service!

Placed an order for pickup after work. Unfortunately when I got there, the door was locked despite the hours saying open, and everyone just stared at me. I understand the need for a meal break, but maybe don't accept orders within that time frame. I'm just glad their website doesn't have you pay for your order ahead of time.

Best dosa I had! Give it a try, worth it.

I order from here often though Uber eats and this place is amazing! You get chicken 65 + biryani combo for $20 which is such a great price, huge portions and delicious!! I also get the dosas here and it’s also large, tasty portions ,and fresh. I get the dosa with butter, Kara podi and potato masala and it is da BOMB!! I have ordered Dosa from every Indian restaurant in Jersey City, and this is the best one. Both my partner and I love this place and will continue ordering from here. Here in JC, we have lot of options and this place is a solid option!

Went there with my lovely lady today... We was craving Masala Dosa.. Never been to this place before.. Servers are nice, the meals were prepped very well. Food was delicious! I had Chicken 65 w/ plain Naan, 2 Masala Dosa, idly with the samba sauce.. Awesome! O and Chicken Samosa... Everything I ordered came out fresh and tasty.. Will go back again very soon with more people...
