| Deeply Disappointed -- What Happened to Baithakh?…read more Baithakh used to be one of our favorite go-to spots in North Brunswick. We've always enjoyed the food, but unfortunately, something has definitely changed since our last visit -- and not for the better. We ordered several dishes, including the Baithakh Seekh Kebab Roll, Crispy Fried Chicken Burger, Beef Paya, Beef Nihari, Peshawari Mutton Karahi, and Chicken Malai Boti. To our surprise, nearly everything was a letdown. The Beef Paya and Peshawari Mutton Karahi were both swimming in oil and severely lacked flavor, which was shocking considering how good they used to be. The Fried Chicken Burger had decent seasoning, but the chicken itself was tough and rubbery -- almost inedible. The Chicken Malai Boti was okay, but even that wasn't as tender or flavorful as we've had here before. Maybe they've changed chefs or recipes, but the quality just isn't the same anymore. Baithakh had never failed us before, but this visit was a major disappointment. Sadly, we're giving it a 2 out of 5 stars. We hope they find their way back to the standard that once made them great.

I engaged GFBU for my son's wedding reception after attending one of the events they catered. I was…read morepleasantly surprised with their professionalism and services. Because of our multicultural guests and serious food allergies, I worked very closely with Majid Mahmood. Since my venue was a standalone location, I relied heavily on Majid who not only helped me with food selection but also with setup and serving. GFBU team worked seamlessly behind the scenes to make your event a true success. They are not there to steal the limelight or make noise or divert the attention to food. They came early for our labor day weekend event in CT from Central Jersey along with their team who immediately started to help with various tasks. I have never seen a more professional, polite and courteous south asian caterer whose goal is to make you shine as a host. Highly Recommended.

We have been regular customers at Good Food by Uzma. In the beginning, the food quality and portion…read moresizes were excellent, and we truly enjoyed visiting on weekends. However, over our last three visits, we've noticed several concerns: The taste of the food has changed, and some dishes were not properly cooked. The karahi gosht is no longer prepared the way it used to be, and the portion size has also been reduced. The seating arrangement feels too cramped for the space, making it difficult to move around comfortably. When concerns are raised, the standard response is simply, "we will let them know," without any visible follow-up. We genuinely enjoy dining here and would like to continue visiting. However, the inconsistency in food quality, along with pricing and portion concerns, has been disappointing and is making us reconsider. I would greatly appreciate it if the owner could give attention to these issues, particularly ensuring consistency in food quality and taste.

We came on a Sunday morning around 10am and there was only one worker out front. We ordered at the kiosk and he got right to work on our drink order. Our food came out before our drinks. Good service! What we ordered: - CHICKEN TIKKA QUESADILLA (Chicken Tikka, Three Cheese Blend, Chipotle Aioli on Flour Tortilla) - BANANA PUDDING MATCHA LATTE (Ceremonial Grade Matcha, Banana Syrup, Milk, Banana Pudding Cream, Crushed Nilla Wafers) - SPANISH MATCHA LATTE (Ceremonial Grade Matcha, Sweet Condensed Milk, Milk) Everything was made fresh and it was all tasty. The banana pudding matcha latte was very good, the banana aspect didn't taste like artificial banana syrup. We've been to places where it literally tasted like a Banana Runtz Candy. I would recommend this place.

Chai Chenak is separated into a restaurant area that specializes in classic street food items like bun kebab, and a cafe section next door. I've enjoyed the Kathi rolls here, but the main reason to visit is for the Kashmiri chai, which is prepared in large quantities and always ready to go. The chai has a slight buttery saltiness that adds to the richness, especially when you pair it with a healthy dose of sugar.

I ordered the Gulberg Special Chicken Karahi, some naan, and a Beef Bihari Roll. The biggest disappointment was the karahi. It didn't really taste like a traditional karahi and felt more like a chicken salan served in a karahi dish. I've had this exact item here before, and it was fantastic, so I know the kitchen is capable of much better. The Beef Bihari Roll, on the other hand, was delicious. My only suggestion would be to improve the presentation a bit. Adding some fries or a side would make the plate feel more complete and visually appealing. When we mentioned the karahi to our server, he handled it very professionally. He immediately offered to have a fresh one made, which was appreciated. By that point, the kids were getting restless, so we decided not to wait. He was also kind enough to adjust our bill, which was a very nice gesture and showed great customer service. Overall, while the karahi missed the mark this time, the staff made up for it with their attentiveness and willingness to make things right. Everyone has an off night, especially with two big events going on. I'd definitely come back and give it another shot.

Terrible experience. I paid by credit card and then paid the same amount again in cash after the…read moremerchant promised the card charge would be refunded. Since the store was closing, they said they couldn't print a receipt but assured me the refund would be processed. Two weeks later, there was still no refund. When I contacted them, they denied knowing anything about the cash payment. I asked them to review the security camera above the register, which should confirm exactly what happened, but they kept avoiding the issue and giving me the runaround. I have now opened a dispute with my credit card company. If this is not resolved, I am prepared to take further legal action if necessary. I paid twice for the same purchase and have still not received my money back. Extremely unprofessional and unacceptable. I would strongly advise anyone dealing with this business to get a receipt for every payment and carefully check their statements.

The crispy chicken sandwich was perfectly cooked, with a super crispy coating that stayed intact (always a good sign!). The masala fries were seasoned just right. When we ordered the paratha pulled beef roll, the staff gave us a heads-up that it was a bit spicy but it turned out to be really spicy, so keep that in mind if you're sensitive to heat. The restaurant itself was well-maintained, and the staff did a great job keeping everything clean and tidy.

When I approached the register, the employee asked who I was picking up for. I showed her the order information on my phone, and she checked it before walking away. The problem was that she never came back or gave me any update. I was left standing there waiting, assuming the order was still being prepared. After waiting longer than necessary, I had to approach another employee to find out what was happening. I was then told that my food had actually been ready for several minutes. That was frustrating because a simple update or acknowledgment would have avoided the entire situation. What bothered me most was that when I finally brought up the issue, instead of acknowledging the inconvenience, I felt like I was being brushed off with a quick "have a good night." I understand that restaurants can get busy, and I'm not expecting perfect service every time. However, basic communication, attentiveness, and respect go a long way especially when someone is simply trying to pick up an order. I'm leaving this review because the pickup process needs improvement. Management should make sure employees are communicating with customers and following through after asking them for their order information. A little better customer service would make a big difference.

We ordered Gol Gappay, lamb biryani, Gosht Karahi, and a naan. The Gol Gappay was interesting. Crispy shells filled with chickpeas and potato, with a tangy, salty, savory flavor. Adding a little yogurt balanced it out nicely. Definitely something different. The lamb biryani was around the low teens price-wise and came in a huge portion with plenty of meat. The lamb was slightly dry -- felt like it may have been prepared earlier and kept warm -- but still flavorful and within expectations for the price. The standout for us was the Gosht Karahi. Tender but slightly chewy lamb, very savory and well seasoned, with lots of large chunks of meat. It looks a bit pricey at first, but considering how much meat you actually get, it felt like a solid value. We packed up half of it and still thought the leftovers were more generous than some restaurants' fresh servings. The naan was massive. Good flavor, although it didn't have that super fresh-out-of-the-tandoor smoky char. Funny enough, reheating it in the air fryer at home made it even better. One thing to know: every dish here runs large, so this place is better with a group. There are parking spots in front, but not many.

Inedible Signature Dish, Shockingly Unprofessional Service, and Zero Empathy…read more ​We visited this restaurant based on strong recommendations, hoping for a memorable family dinner. Unfortunately, after paying a $221 bill, this turned out to be one of the worst dining experiences we have ever had. ​While the karai was a redeeming bright spot, the signature nihari was completely disappointing--resembling a heavy, generic spicy curry rather than traditional nihari, and ultimately left uneaten. ​However, the food was secondary to the appalling level of service. In all our years of dining out, we have never witnessed staff physically clearing plates and food from a table while guests were still in the middle of eating. It is a fundamental breach of basic hospitality and respect. ​Compounding this, we were dining with our children, including a child with autism who was having a genuinely difficult moment. Given that management is reportedly well aware of these parenting challenges, the complete lack of patience, empathy, or professional grace from the staff was deeply disheartening. ​A $221 bill should at the very least guarantee a baseline standard of customer care and human decency. Regrettably, due to the total failure in service and professionalism, this was our first and last visit.

We tried the Tikkaville sandwich and medium-spicy tenders, and both were good -- crunchy, spicy with a very manageable kick, and filled with tender, juicy chicken. There are a few areas that could make the food even better. The tenders have a dry, crunchy breading that tends to fall off the chicken, and since most of the seasoning is concentrated in the coating, the chicken itself can taste a little bland. The chipotle dipping sauce definitely helps. The Tikkaville sandwich has a great concept, but the tikka sauce could use some refinement. It leans a little acidic; I think a creamier, smokier, butter-chicken-style sauce could make the sandwich richer and much more crave-worthy. Prices are reasonable and the ambiance is nice, although you can constantly hear the fryer running in the background. It's a self serve concept so not much to report here. I really admire what Namkeen is trying to do -- it's a creative concept with plenty of potential. With a little more refinement and consistency, I think it could go from "good" to something you genuinely crave and keep coming back for.
