Ambiance (5/5): The inside is very pristine with an elevated feel. The staff wear suits! Service (5/5): To circumvent the Friday night wait time without a reservation, we chose to sit at the bar top seating. It was uncomfortable since our knees bumped into the table. However, we did not have to wait! We had immediate service any time we wanted it because someone was always behind the bar. Food (5/5): This is the best Indian food I've had in Queens!! Every since dish is packed with flavor, depth in the sauce and meats, and reasonably priced!! I liked how much sauce was in every dish. Samosa was perfect. The Goat Mandras was my favorite with a sauce that has spice but not super spicy considering the red chili symbol. Chicken Tikka was also very good. My garlic naan was SO good, has a crunch on one side but airy soft to bite. Unlimited little rice bowls?! This will be our go-to Indian after our first experience. read more

Needed to find a new spot for Indian cuisine. Wow what a find. Let's start with The nann- holy moley- light and crispy. Which is so good as you don't feel heavy eating it and maybe less carbs. The service was good, took the time to address our allergies, likes etc . Make a reservation if you can, or get there right after work because it's going to be packed. Ambiance is cool. Definitely will be going back to try more things. read more

Angel Indian Restaurant - Indian Near Me - Jackson Heights, New York

One of the best spots in Jackson heights and it gets crowded. Prepare to wait. The new location is an upgrade over their old one. Butter chicken was flavorful and amazing gravy. The garlic naan was also solid and the service is quick and good. The lassi was not good but other than that solid spot but on the expensive side read more

I came to Angel for dinner, and we had a good time! We did have to wait a while for a table to open up, but service throughout our experience was so kind. All the workers here are welcoming and fun! Inside has a decent amount of tables with moodier lighting and a bar. We placed our order, and the food came out very quick! The Seekh Kebabs were good! Not gamey and was a good tender kebab. The goat biryani was also flavorful and I actually loved the bread layer on top. The pairing with the raita makes the whole dish so delicious. read more

Angel Indian Restaurant - 6. Goat Dum Biryani - Indian Near Me - Jackson Heights, New York

Angel Indian is one of my all-time favorite restaurants. EXCELLENT Indian food, made by real Indian people and without the hubbub of being in Manhattan. In the heart of Jackson Heights, Angel Indian is a quintessential pillar of the food scene in the neighborhood and gave me some of the best bites of that year. By the way they make their own paneer - delish! Their special that includes paneer-stuffed naan is a MUST have. It comes with a bunch of sides you eat together for a perfect marriage of spices, seasonings, fresh paneer, delicious butter, lightly sour yogurt and all these different textures with soft, crumble, crunch. Their goat dum biryani is also excellent and has such tender meat with flavorful rice. Their saag paneer was also delicious! read more

Food was amazing! The chicken saag was so tender and so flavorful. It came with basmati rice. The samosa chaat had a great mix of flavors and texture, and was noticeably sweet. I thought the staff was attentive, but I found the restaurant to be very loud with a lot going on. I definitely see myself coming back for the food. read more

Angel is hands down the best Indian food I've ever had -- and honestly better than any Michelin-star Indian restaurant I've been to. The flavors here are just on another level. We ordered the goat dum biryani ($25.99) *a MUST get in my opinion* veg pakoda ($10.99), lamb vindaloo ($21.99), and garlic naan ($5). Every single dish was incredible. The biryani was perfectly cooked and the right spice level as well as the lamb vindaloo, and even the veg pakoda was crispy and super flavorful. If you're anywhere near Jackson Heights, this place is absolutely worth the trip. Waits can get pretty long on the weekends but it's worth it. I'm already thinking about when I can go back. read more

In a neighborhood saturated with South Asian cuisine options, Angel truly stands out as a gem. I first visited Angel before the pandemic when it was at it's old corner side location with just a few tables, but it has since exploded from making its way to the Michelin guide and having many influencers spotlight their menu. The attention is well deserved, but you will need to plan ahead for meals--especially weekends. You can make a reservation on Resy.com, which is not listed on their Google page or their website. Their new location is more upscale now, with suited up servers and ambient lighting. This is quite the change from the small kitchen wok storefront vibe from their first location. The portions are still generous and a great bang for your buck! There is a decadent shock value to each entree's presentation that has been thoughtfully curated by the chefs. It is apparent that the dishes are prepared with detail and the staff is always attentive to customers. The food comes out fresh, spicy, flavorful and is consistent in quality. The menu is also very accommodating to all dietary needs. Some must-trys are the dum biriyani--the star of the show that has baked naan seared over piping hot biriyani; one of my favorites is the batata puri appetizer--a yogurt and chutney filled crunchy appetizer with potato and chickpea--a literal explosion of flavor and yogurt; I also love the saag, which uses a hearty portion of spinach and mustard greens and you can't go wrong with the tandoori chicken or fish. I highly recommend this place for an unforgettable Indian dining experience! https://resy.com/cities/new-york-ny/venues/angel-indian-restaurant-ny?extlink=ps-US-Resy-Brand-Conversion-Evergreen&gclsrc=aw.ds&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=11097833704&gclid=CjwKCAiA95fLBhBPEiwATXUsxMR72M4_6P07Jne5yqkx-njuYBz53NDPoXm2w_l7_6iPlthtVCjIoBoCSRoQAvD_BwE&date=2026-01-13&seats=2 read more

We were seated immediately and even though the restaurant had a solid crowd, the service was attentive and genuinely warm the entire time. We started with the samosas and WOW. We were so close to ordering a second round but had to practice self-control to save room for our entrées. I ordered the butter chicken with roti, and it was everything you want butter chicken to be.. rich, creamy, deeply spiced without being overpowering. My fiancé ordered the goat biryani, and the presentation alone was stunning. The flavor. The tenderness. The layers of spice. So, so, so good. We were already talking about when we're coming back before we even paid the bill. And I have to shout out the staff, when we were packing up leftovers, they kindly added a small container of yogurt sauce for us to take home without us even asking. Highly recommend. Another Jackson Heights gem added to the rotation! read more

Came for lunch on a weekday and were seated right away. We tried the goat madras curry and fish moilee. I liked the goat better and felt the fish was ok. The goat pieces were fairly tender and fell off the bone. We also had their garlic naan which was good. I tried their chai and felt it tasted almost medicinal instead of the usual aromatic spices in chai which I wasn't a fan of. For dessert we had the Gulab jamun which was good as well. read more

Happy to see that Angel's has expanded without compromising their delicious food. The new location is much larger/newer/less of a "hole in the wall" vibe compared to the original location. We reordered dishes that we've typically enjoyed (lamb madras, garlic naan, goat dum biryani) and all were excellent. We also tried the samosa chaat app which was full of flavor. Service is polite, accommodating, and apps/entrees are brought out at the perfect pace. Also, they are BYOB. read more

On the evening of 10/15/25, I ate dinner at Angel Indian Restaurant with about 10 other Yelpers. Yelp Elite Andie organized the group dinner. My favorite dish was the Goat Dum Biryani because of the way it was presented. The server cut open a puffed bread "balloon" on top, revealing layers of onions, herbs, rice, and goat. Another favorite of mine was the appetizer Mumba Bhei Puri . It is a rice dish that is so fragrant and perfectly seasoned, it could be a meal on its own. I also enjoyed the Dahl Patata Puri, which looked like meatballs but were actually a fried melange of potatoes, chickpeas, sweetened yoghurt and various spices, shaped into a ball. And that black cumin naan? Addictive doesn't even begin to describe it. I had three pieces and had to stop myself from eating more! A special shout-out to Azai, the general manager, who graciously offered me a complimentary mango lassi after my TAJ beer spilled a bit while the server was opening it. The mango lassi was a delicious milkshake. This is a BYOB restaurant because they do not have a liquor license. I plan to return to try other dishes. I highly recommend Angel Indian Restaurant. read more

I truly had an amazing time at Angel Indian Restaurant dining with wonderful Yelpers. I was able to meet new Yelpers which is always nice. This was actually my first time trying Indian cuisine and I actually enjoyed it. We started our dining experience with two appetizers, Mumbai Bhal Puri and Dahi Batata Puri, both which are popular Indian street food snacks. They both were very delicious. Our entrees included Goat Dum Biryani, Chicken Tikka Masala, Lamb Madras,Lotus Root Kofta, Kalonji Naan and Basmati Rice. It was a wonderful dining experience for me and I'm glad that I was able to spend it with fellow Yelpers. Angel Indian Restaurant has been in operation for six years at the previous location. However, they've been operating at this new upscale restaurant for two months now. Angel Indian Restaurant provided an incredible experience for us all and made sure that we were taken care of. It seems to be quite popular in the neighborhood because there were many people waiting to get inside. Stop by, you won't be disappointed. Thank you Angel Indian Restaurant for a wonderful 1st experience read more

I've dined at the old location and tonight I was able to join a fantastic group dinner at the new location. The new space is larger and has a more modern, upscale feel that I appreciated. I waited a bit to review Angel because I felt I didn't have too much experience with Indian cuisine. Over the past year I've been exploring more, but still by no means an expert. With that disclaimer in place it is fairly easy to appreciate the quality of the food from Angel. In each of the dishes we ordered the meats were all tender and flavorful. Our menu for the evening included: Mumbai Bhal Puri - Tomatoes, onion, green & tamarind chutney, sev papdi. I found this very refreshing. There was still some after we got our mains and it was nice to switch back to this dish. Dahi Batata Puri - I thoroughly enjoyed these one bite snacks (although some find them large try your best to do it one go or you will have a mess on your hands and probably mouth) crispy outside, refreshing potatoes, tamarind mint chutney yogurt fills the inside. Lamb Madras - Lamb, onion, turmeric, tomatoes. Lamb is very tender, but honestly this can be almost any meat. I usually enjoy the distinctive lamb flavor but the flavorful sauce truly is the focus. Chicken Tikka Masala - Marinated chicken, red chilli powder, garam masala. How can chicken be this tender? Truly delicious chunks in a satisfying flavorful sauce. Goat Dum Biryani - Goat, basmati rice, saffron served with raita. This dish is presented with a flourish as the server breaks open the bread dome to mix the steaming biryani inside. Perhaps because this dish was served with other strongly flavored dishes with sauces at our meal that it lessens it's impact. It comes off a little on the dry side. Lotus Root Kofta - This dish was a surprise. I forgot I recommended to our host (shoutout to Andie!) and I thought this was a meatball - a testament to Angel's flavorful curry. Basmati Rice and Kalonji Naan (black cumin naan) rounded out the dishes. I would probably be at 5 stars, but same as in the old location soon after you put the last bite (or sometime while you still are about to put the last bite in your mouth) the servers start to give you the bum rush out of the place. "Would you like anything wrapped? Are you done with this?" I understand, restaurants need to make a buck but when a large group (like ours of 12) is dropping a few hundred dollars on a meal I think a little grace and courtesy would be welcomed instead of trying to get us out after just an hour. read more

Wow, just wow. If you are looking for delicious Indian food along with even better service, look no further than Angel Indian Restaurant. The menu is quite extensive and fortunately our server took the time to walk us through its entirety, pointing out his favorites by calling out the number listed on the menu and name of the dish (this was helpful as I was trying to follow along!). They bring every table a thin crisp bread with cumin seeds but you also must order the piping hot naan! Ordered: Garlic naan ($5)- this was super garlicky and served warm. It accompanied the other dishes perfectly. Butter chicken ($20)- this was phenomenal! One of the best butter chickens I've had. The chicken was tender, the sauce was nice and the portion was generous. I would order this again for sure. Dahi Batata Puri ($9)- this was also very tasty! It had potatoes and tamarind mint chutney. Our server recommended it! I can't wait for my next visit! read more

Angel Indian Restaurant - 2. Butter Chicken - Indian Near Me - Jackson Heights, New York

Came by on a Saturday night and the restaurant was full although only a brief wait. Interior was lively but a little cramped, and the tables are very close to each other. Even late at night, more parties came streaming in. Definitely a hotspot in the Jackson Heights area! The food here doesn't taste as much like "restaurant" Indian food and more home-made tasting. The curries are chunkier and have more vegetable texture in the base than a smooth blended curry, which adds to the charm. They can seriously pick up the spice if you ask for it! Chaats were another standout, with a lovely blend of flavors. The starches stayed crispy while the chutneys stayed distinct. Would definitely recommend any of the chaats in addition to the curries. Service was prompt but unobtrusive. Note the location on Google isn't quite correct - they moved to a new location read more

Tried their new location on 37th ave on a Thursday evening. I must say it's a busy restaurant, but you won't have problem finding a table. They have more tables than their old location and much cleaner. Their music is still loud but we were able to hear each other this time. Service is fast. Few men in suits go around like a bouncer. Idk what their job is but looked itimidating to me. We ordered samosa chat, mango lassi, lamb chops and chicken biryani. Food was nothing special. Lamb chop was good. Biryani was lacking flavor, not as good as it was in their old location, maybe because we got goat biryani last time. I must say Little pricey for the location,food portion and taste read more

Had the Mumbai Puri, Chicken Tikka, Goat Biryani, Garlic Naan and Butter Chicken. The food was delicious and spicy, however, the chicken Tikka was a bit too salty. Price is a bit on the expensive side. The place was very packed with lots of people and the ambiance is dark almost bar like. There is only one room bathroom which should be expanded since the place is kind of popular. read more

Pulled up to Angel Indian Restaurant in Jackson Heights -- where the food hits harder than the 7 train brakes. Convenient to every subway in the neighborhood, so you really have no excuse not to eat like a king. Started off with the Pani Puri, aka "crispy little flavor grenades." Hollow shells stuffed with potatoes, chickpeas, onions, and then BOOM -- that spicy tangy water. One bite and my taste buds started doing bhangra. Then came the pastry-topped goat dum biryani... bro... this thing was slow-cooked like it was training for a marathon. Layers of rice and marinated goat sealed under pastry like a treasure chest. I opened it and legit heard angels sing. Also their homemade paneer? Yeah, they don't play. But the MVP of the night? My guy Abdur. Funniest waiter I've ever met. Man was out here giving elite recommendations like a Michelin-star coach. Told me to get the goat biryani AND a mango lassi... changed my whole mood. The lassi hit smoother than a Sunday nap. And shoutout to them for the new expansion -- more room for me to eat like a menace. read more

So good - probably the best chicken tikka masala we've had. The goat dum biryani was also solid. It was pretty loud and busy on a Sunday night but they got us in and out pretty quickly. The tables are pretty close to each other so it can also get a little bit loud. read more

Great food. Restaurant was kind of small and very busy so definitely recommend making a reservation. The service was super good and the servers were dresser very very nicely. The garlic naan was very garlicky and was so good. The saag was kind of chunky and was different from saag I'm used to but this must just be a regional thing. The paneer was on the firmer side which I like more than soft paneer. My friend got a dish called chole something lol and she said it's hard to find at restaurants and was super good. Food is very authentic and was a great experience. read more

Legendary indian food - quite literally one of the best of the best. The chicken masala and lamb vindaloo were so incredibly flavorful, especially when you dip in the cooked-to-perfection naan bread. But the star? The vegetarian dish - Aloo Baingan. As a carnivore, I cannot explain why this dish was so addicting, but all I know is I gotta have it again next time I'm in the area. Only thing I surprisingly didn't enjoy was the pani puris. Service was a bit slow and ambiance is standard. The NYTimes should reevaluated who they give the top indian restaurant award to! read more

Got a goat biryani for takeout. We came on a Sunday evening and it was about a 30 min wait for the food, so I definitely recommend ordering in advance. The portion size was reasonable, and obviously the presentation is different given that the food was not served table side. Keep in mind my review is based on the takeout version, so it may be better/fresher in person. The raita wasn't very well seasoned, and it wasn't my favorite taste. I did enjoy the meat itself as it was pretty tender and flavorful. I would try other menu items, but I have other restaurant preferences for biryani. Ty for reading :^) read more

Ate here today with my mom for lunch and dinner trying this place out for the first time.

Angel Indian Restaurant - 1. Mango Lassi - Indian Near Me - Jackson Heights, New York

Delicious! I haven't been in awhile and was looking forward to visiting. It moved to its current location on 37th Avenue, and we visited at around 1:20P on a Saturday and the place was packed. Without a reservation, we were quoted a 25-30 minute wait so we (party of two) sat at the bar, which was fine. It was a little tight behind us as people came in and stood right next to me to check in, so that was a little bit annoying but overall fine. The ambience is nice; the restaurant is well-appointed, and the music is upbeat. Service was also great. The food was delicious! I ordered the chicken biryani *spicy*, and they brought the heat! Whoo I cut the heat with mango lassi and needed a refill! Delicious meal, I will definitely come back. read more

This is the slightly more formal experience of its more well known, casual-dining, sibling restaurant, which shares the same name. Deep flavors, spice levels, and heat are all great, layered, and exciting. Service is attentive and happily willing to answer questions. Seating/space can accommodate larger (6-8 people) parties. Price is standard for a NYC restaurant in this bracket of dining experience. Would I come back? Probably, and only for an occasion. But this place has made me more excited and curious to try the original, more casual spot. read more

5 Stars for the wonderful and true " Angel" Andie( Yelp Elite Extraordinaire) who put so much time and energy into introducing this new restaurant that she had been to us lucky Yelpers from Queens, from Brooklyn, from the Bronx and Long Island. She brought us together. Angel is a sweet and intimate Indian restaurant with a warm interior, very attentive and caring staff and some really nice food. It is always great to go back to the original " Little India of NY from the 70's" to see a new establishment that is 2 blocks away from the original " main area" ie 74th Street offering up some amazing dishes like the Dum Biryani, tasty and tangy appetizers like the bhel puri and delicious garlic naan to dip into the chicken tikka masala. Andie picked the perfect dinner menu. Our group of twelve had a pre set menu and we loved every single item including the fantastic masala chai and the mango lassis. It was BYOB and my new friend Gail brought some beer which she generously offered to all. Reservations are tough to get for this new hot spot. Andie thank you again for all of this. This was a beautiful evening. I left with a happy belly, a bigger smile and 4 new beautiful Yelp friends. read more

I'm extremely particular about Indian food in restaurants, but this was genuinely delicious. The paneer tikka was melt in your mouth delicious. My sister and I went for a project for her class, so we got to interview the owner. He was very kind and explained to us how he got where he is today! I definitely recommend this place. We were doing a food tour of Jackson heights, so we didn't get to eat more. However, if I went back today, i definitely would order more dishes! read more

I came on a Friday night and it can definitely get busy so reservations are recommended. As we sat down, they gave complimentary papad, which is a thin and flat Indian cracker with chutney. I found it to be really unique! For appetizers I had pani puri (deep fried crunchy ball with fillings). It was also filled with chutney to my liking. I also had fish amritsari, which is deep fried fish bites. I liked both. For entree I had butter chicken and goat biryani. I really enjoyed both, but I felt like the goat biryani was the best biryani I had. The biryani also came sealed in a bread. Although the butter chicken came with rice, I also had two naans. I had the cheese naan and the garlic naan. The cheese naan was extremely cheesy almost like a pizza - it was probably the best cheese naan I've had! However, the garlic naan felt more like a sesame naan, there wasn't any garlic taste to it. read more

I had a wonderful event with a bunch of elite yelpers attending a UYE at Angel Indian Restuarant located at 75-18 37th Ave in Jackson Heights NY 11372 which is up the street from its old location. This new location specializes in serving groups. We had a group of 12 people and the staff function well while still being able to focus on groups of smaller sizes. The menu is as follows: Appetizers were Mumbai Bhal Puri and Dahi Batata Puri both were very new for me, and I enjoyed them tremendously. Entrees: Lamb Madras- this was a very good dish especially if you eat lamb. This was very tender and delicious and cooked to perfection. Chicken Tikka Masala- this was also delicious and my favorite. It has a smooth taste, and the chicken was very tasty. Goat Dum Biryani- Very delicious while the meat was falling off of the bone. Lotus Root Kofta, Basmati Rice, and the Kalonji Naan (black cumin naan) are also delicious. The Basmati Rice seemed lighter that than the normal rice. I arrived very late therefore I did not have time to take pics and notice the aesthetics. The service was tier 1. We had someone at our table the entire time we were there providing exceptional service. There is a parking lot located just past 37th Rd on 75th street not too far from the corner just in case you can't find parking. Reservations is a must and there is a penalty fee of $25 for no show, credit card information confirms the reservation. read more

Set up a little get together at the new location of Angel now on 37th ave and the food was as good as I remembered. Last time I was there I was with a group of 12, now they don't do reservations above 6 people which is fine because the space really isn't that large but it is nicer than the previous location. Oh, we ordered like kings and had non alcoholic drinks as well, bill only came out to with tax and tip $36 per. Steal! The food: Veg Pakoda- Got this dish the first time and felt this needed to be ordered again and again it was so damn good, perfectly fried and not greasy at all. This was a table favorite. Dahi Batata Puri- This was so unique, it was like fresh yogurt in a chickpea shell, it was fun to eat and very refreshing. Samosa- Pretty safe, it was a good samosa. Butter Chicken- Oh man was this good, the chicken was cooked perfectly and the sauce had so much flavor. Dark meat chicken for the win! Paneer Kadai- Oh man this is the paneer to get here, it was like a Chinese stir fry paneer with heat and peppers. I really liked this one a lot. Lamb Bhuna- Got this on the previous visit and still a go to, awesome sauce, great lamb with a touch of heat. Goat Dum Biryani- This was better than I remember but still don't love the wet rice. The goat was delicious though, super tender and had good flavor. Saag Paneer- While this was Ok, it wasn't as exciting as the other dishes. It was fine but I think I have had better versions else where. Garlic Naan- Makes everything better, this was no different. read more

As always, The food was outstanding! The best paneer in town. We had a reservation and were seated quickly. I went with a friend & we were both very surprised how loud the music was. It was difficult to carry on a conversation and by the time we were leaving we were running out the door because it was even louder! 5 stars for food 5 stars for service 2 stars for ambience (I like the new space but the loud muffled club music doesn't fit) read more

I've enjoyed my previous visits to the original Angel Indian Restaurant on 37th Road but I'm so happy that they have moved to this larger space on 37th Ave! (Don't confuse the addresses!). Yes they are fine-dining now, and prices have risen (as to be expected) but the food is still incredible! Punjabi cuisine at it's finest! Fantastic customer service and hospitality. *** Make reservations!! You can call them to make reservations or reserve via Resy. Note that there is a $25 per person charge for late cancellations and no-shows, so reserve responsibly! *** It's BYOB!! Tonight's MENU (shared by 5ppl): ~ Dahi Batata Puri ($9/6pcs): potatoes, tamarind, mint chutney & yogurt). Puri (also called Fuska in Bangladeshi restaurants) is my favorite street food. They come in so many varieties of filling. This version, with the slightly sweet yogurt was a flavor bomb in my mouth. Loved it. Don't try to cut these in half. Just pop the whole sphere of goodness into your mouth, and enjoy! ~ Goat Dum Biryani ($26): Goat, basmati rice saffron served with raita. Excellent dish! Get this! This was probably our fave dish of the night. So flavorful and tender. ~ Lamb Madras ($22): Lamb w.onion, turmeric tomatoes. So good. The lamb was nice and tender. ~ Chicken Saag ($20): Chicken w.spinach, garlic chilli. This was the most "ordinary" dish we had. Not a bad dish but also not anything special. I would skip this next time, and order something a little more interesting. ~ Paneer Bhurji Lajawab ($22): homemade Indian cheese, onion, tomato, spices. I usually like paneer cheese but the texture of this dish wasn't enjoyable for me. Instead of chunks of paneer, the paneer seemed minced. Someone in my group thought it was eggs. Chunkier paneer would have been better. ~ Kalonji Naan ($5/4 pcs): Naan w.black cumin. I've never had this before, and loved it. They offer unique varieties of Naan; not just plain & garlic. ~ Basmati Rice: complimentary with each entree. I'm already plotting my next visit, to try other dishes. Can't wait for a return visit! read more
