I just recently got into Indian food. My wife has always loved it and she lives this restaurant as do I. My favorite dish so far is the garlic chicken. It is so flavorful, what I imagined garlic chicken should taste like.
This was an accidental find as we were heading back to NJ. We had the Onam buffet…as recommended by the manager Mr Jeren Jacob. It was outstanding food- the goat curry and the payasam were the best we had eaten. The nans were hot and fresh… and the staff was very polite and had smiles as they served us. All in all, a great experience and totally worth repeating.
My first time at Sitar with my husband on a Saturday lunch buffet. Tried other places but this place was different, atmosphere, the servers. Food was amazing. A lot of variety plus a nice salad bar. Naan, dessert pudding, delicious. Will definitely be back!
Ouch. Ordered biryani, fish curry and naan. The biryani looks like white biryani rice unevenly spiced, with dry chicken breast thrown in after the fact. Definitely not a traditionally prepared dish, and was frankly pretty inedible. The fish curry was also overly oily, and didn't taste like any curry I've ever had. Overly salty/sour. The stir fried veggies were surprisingly extremely sour and also inedible. The naan and white rice became the majority of my meal. It's possible these folks may know how to cook, but just aren't trying very hard. I'd stay away unless they make some major changes in the kitchen.
This is my go-to for Indian. I love their buffet lunch, I get to experience dishes I have never tried, so this is great for anyone that wants to explore, venture and try things they have never tried. I love everything here, have never been disappointed by any dish. I especially love their goat, I think it's curry style. Delicious! Service is always amazing, been coming here for years and will continue to do so. Almost forgot, their naan is the best, best, best!
BUYER BEWARE! *NEVER* GO TO THIS RESTAURANT! As others have mentioned, you get charged more than the prices on the menu. It is the restaurant's responsibility to inform the patron of the price and normally that is done with the menu. If the menu prices are wrong, then the staff needs to tell the patron. The price factors into the patron's decision on what to eat and whether they eat it with you and violating that trust is a huge mistake. Basically they can make up whatever prices they want, but lying about the prices by providing outdated menus and then omitting the truth about the prices IS lying to the customer. Interestingly, after my wife and I were discussing the bill and the pricing, we heard the group the next table over who were equally shocked by the prices they were charged and upset that the restaurant didn't tell them about the prices. Frankly the price difference was appalling, we were charged nearly 50% more than the prices on the menu. My wife and I STRONGLY urge anyone considering visiting this restaurant to find an HONEST business that isn't trying to scam the customer. There are far better restaurants and even better Indian restaurants than this one, go anywhere else but this place.
Service is slow but the food is sooo good! Dined in twice so far. The food was served hot both times. Delicious both times. Edit : man... I cannot rave about this place enough!! I order take out from here a lot now. And the food is always so damn good

This is one of my favorite restaurants ever! I love the food here. I'm vegan and I feel that there are many options for me, my partner and I usually get the Gobi Manchurian and Chana Masala with a side of 2 Pooris. SOOOO GOOD!! It is also very affordable and the portions are HUGE. I love the customer service here as well, they are very sweet! After the first couple of times they remembered my name and order :
