As a frequent traveler who lives in New York City with access to many top Indian restaurants, I am quite fortunate to be a regular at Taste of India, where authentic dishes are created by natives who are expert in the cuisine. I start with a cocktail, and my wife and I have had many great ones, which is one of the surprises that awaits you at the restaurant. In the photos, you can see my chocolate martini, replete with chocolate powder, chilled, and a cookie. It’s delicious every time. When I finish it, and I do so rather fast, I am always asked if I want another, yet It’s strong enough that I have to stop at one, since I’m the driver. I’m a lightweight! I then shift to appetizers, beginning with Nan. I can assert with great confidence that a few if any make it better. I’ve tried nan everywhere and none compare. It’s crispy, it’s hot, it’s buttery, it’s flavorful, there are many flavors to choose from. It’s seasoned perfectly. Another favorite appetizer — shown here in the photos, is vegetable Samosa. It is always served hot it is sort of an amazing Indian version of a knish. Delicious! For dinner, I typically get the tandoori chicken, which is hearty, perfectly cooked, and seated on a bed of onions and peppers, served sizzling hot on a skillet. Another version of tabdoori that I get salmon and it’s flavored perfectly, with the fishy taste baked away and seasoned deliciously, served on a skillet rather hot as fish should be. The dining room feels as you want it to feel at an Indian restaurant, with seating and ornaments that give you all of the feels an Indian restaurant and certainly not a cafeteria as some do. The staff is genuinely friendly, helpful, attended, and thoughtful. On my latest visit, my waiter, who is always so kind and welcoming, rattled off everything I wanted even before I said it, Because he knows what I like. That he remembers is a great thing isn’t it? Then he suggested a new dish, which you see here in the photos and I loved it, the reshmi chicken, which was tender, juicy, and seasoned perfectly. Taste of India is my go-to for Indian cuisine, and I hit pay dirt having it just blocks from me.

Amazing Indian Restaurant!! Everything here is very yummy. Great service. I highly recommend the biryani and the lamb chops. So delicious. My family orders out from here all the time.
