We ordered spring dosa, masala dosa, pani puri and chaas. Both the dosas were tasteless. They had no salt or spice. The only good thing about them was the Sambhar. The pani puri at the stall was good. The chaas was full of pudina(mint). The taste was so weird. I make much better chaas at home. It was a waste of $50 for us. We should have just gone somewhere else. read more

Its has more of an Indian street side food vibe. I love the desi pan shop in it. Just so authentic. :)

This place hit the spot when I was craving chaat. I tried some of the sev puri chaat and papdi chaat. Both were really good. I also had the mango lassi. The lassi could have been a little bit better as I don't think it had much yogurt. I'll definitely come back and try their other items. Also make sure if you're meeting friends, it's established which one you're going to as the other location is nearby and you can get confused. read more

Two sides to the store. One sweet and savory side. I only tried the sweet side. They had a variety of indian sweets to choose from. each are colorful and decorative. I'd come back to buy some more indian sweets, especially the mango ice cream they have on the side. yuum read more

I don't think I've ever been to a place that consistently has such a large variety of mithai (Indian sweets). The first thing that hits you upon entering is the huge store-length display cases filled with pastries every color of the rainbow. I'm pretty sure the first time I entered Gokul, glorious music and cherubs popped up around me, in celebration of the sweet gorging that was shortly going to occur. I love this place for chaats mainly, but I've also had the veg manchurian and hakka noodles off of the indo-chinese menu. They were pretty good, if not a bit too oily for my taste. I'm not the biggest dosa eater, but my friends love the spring dosa and masala dosa. The service is fast, and I inevitably end up taking home a box of assorted mithai when I leave (damn you self control!). It's definitely not a place to come for any sort of ambiance. Trust me, date night here would not score any points. There are basic vinyl booths, white tiled floors, fluorescent lighting, and styrofoam tableware. Also, there's a distinct feeling of things not being clean. Not dirty either, but just not being clean. The chaat and mithai are still damn amazing though, so nothing is going to stop me from coming back. read more

This place is good for few things... like chat, chole bhature, Pav Bhaji... I mean al chat pat things.. Exuberantly costly for sweets. Ambiance is OK, not very great and not very hygienic, but worth if you wanna go for food. - CrazyBoy read more

I had to stop at Gokul Sweets yesterday to buy a whole tray of laddus (round Indian sweets composed of besan and rava) for a family event and while there picked up a to go box of bhel puri (it's a savory Indian chaat snack). My mom has raved about this place and she told me they have high quality food. She was right (and mom's typically are!). The second I took a bite of the bhel puri, a burst of flavor erupted in my mouth and there was a dance of sweet and savory! It was harmonious! The bhel puri there was one of THE best bhel puris I've had and I couldn't control myself from shoveling every last bit into my mouth! Both my parents think their food is fantastic and they've recommended I try their dosas the next time I go. After experiencing the power of the bhel puri I cannot wait! read more

I just moved to Atlanta and Gokul Sweets is the first time I have ever seen pav bhaji dosa on a menu.. its a genius idea! No more having to choose between getting pav bhaji or a dosa.. It was much better than just a normal masala dosa. As others mentioned the dishes can be on the oily side. read more

My wife and I love this place! We were just wondering in the area when we ran across it and have been back at least 6 times with friends in the last few months, everyone loves it. This is legit Indian food and it's all vegetarian. I'm not a big fan of veggies but man, this stuff is amazing. I ate a whole plate of cauliflower today before I realized what it was. I hate cauliflower but it was amazing! I've tried a dozen dishes here and haven't had a bad one yet. AND, to top it off, they have about a hundred foot case full of ridiculously wonderful Indian sweets waiting for you when you're done. My recommendation is to go for the more chewy nutty sweets, but my wife likes the others that I'm not crazy about. Also, Indian palettes are more tolerable to serious spiciness I think, so ask if a dish is spicy before you order it. I'm not a wuss but I've had a few that were really intense. If you ask them, they can prepare any dish to your level of spice preference. Everyone who works there is Indian and they're wonderful folks. The lady who's always running the register noticed that I cut myself on a lid and remembered my name and had a band-aid waiting for me when I went to drop off my plate. Can't recommend this place enough to anyone who wants amazing Indian food or delectable treats! read more

Gokul Sweets is the most authentic Indian restaurant I've been into since leaving India. This place touches all my senses. You have to realize, not only do I prefer seriously authentic cuisine, I crave serious people watching. I realize most people are not very uncomfortable doing this, but not me. It makes makes my dining experience complete. I have ordered quite a bit on the menu, always experimenting. My favorites seem to be the masala dosa and the samosa chaat. The sweets counter is pretty impressive as well. The ONLY complaint I have is this- Why the Styrofoam plates? To have the real feeling of being in India? Non biodegradable garbage and all? So yes, this place is the real deal. But I wonder if I could bring my own to go containers... read more

This place has AMZING sweets selection. I came for lunch. I ordered the paneer tikka masala, and it was served on a NASTY tray. This tray had not seen soap in many years. If they had the DeKalb Health score of 71 mosted, I would have made a beeline out the door, but alas it was not. The tikka was lacking clavor, had an unnatural thickness to the gravy, and was extremely small. They served rubbery garlic naan, and wanted to gouge me $3 for rice. read more

Since their new location around the corner (in patel brothers plaza) has opened, this location is a little quieter than the other. It's still classic Gokul. I appreciated that they asked if I wanted my padpri chaat mixed or separated. Samosas and chutnies were great as usual. read more

Best desi sweets you can get in USA.. Very tasty, made freshly and many varieties....

Vegeterian place with many unique indian baked goods. great for a quick lunch.

What a fun restaurant! Everyone is so excited about their meals! I recommend the Ser Puri. It was superb! We also shared the Karachi Chaat. I had never had that dish before but now I'm in love with it. The customer service was great! Afterward we walked around all the shops in the area and plan on returning this week for dinner! read more

Great Indian food for good price. This vegetarian restaurant is located in a strip mall right next to Patel Brothers. You order at the front desk. I love pretty much everything from here but my most fav things are: -paneer 65 -samosa chaat -kulfi falooda - gulab jamans The food comes in styrofoam containers. The staff is nice and friendly. Overall good food for great price. read more

I tried food at Gokul Sweets in Decatur today, as I happened to be in that area. Someone from one of the meetups I attended recently spoke highly of this vegetarian restaurant. The place is not clean and the ambiance crappy (even for a cheap restaurant). They did have a whole variety of sweets, however, I am not fond of sweets and did not try any.. About their food - well, I tried Mixed vegetables (veg kurma) and it was awful. The vegetables were steeped in 1-inch thick oil. Not only is it super unhealthy, but it was horrible. The rotis were poorly done. I feel it is just old food that they reheat with oil and serve. I am not sure how good/bad the Chaats are, and I don't think I would bother trying. If anyone is planning to try Indian food, please DO NOT make this the first place you visit and even those of you who eat often at Indian restaurants, this place is not worth a try. There are a whole lot of other nicer Indian restaurants. read more

Pricey but good Indian sweets. They come pretty close to the real deal available in India. They also have an assortment of Indian street foods that are pretty good. This is a regular stop for us when in the Decatur area. read more

If I could I would give a zero star. This is for the one besides cherians not beside Patel brothers. We walked in to this place and a strong muddy wet odor welcomed us I am assuming from the door mats. Then I went to the restroom and it was horrendous. Nothing in there was clean. I don't know how this place even passed a sanitary inspection and then the food and service was disgusting. The lady told us we ordered something which we did not and pushed it on us. I would never go back to this place ever and I would forbid anyone else to go there. You will fall sick. This place needs to be shut down. read more

So gross... The bathrooms are atrocious. If you can hold it.. Please do. The restaurant does not evoke cleanliness or friendliness as you walk in either. The floor is sticky everywhere. The booths are worn and torn and stained. read more

This is the worst 35$ ever spent. This is what I ordered. 1. Hyderabad Pani Puri: I am from hyderabad and no where in entire india they serve daal inside puri. Taste Pathetic. 2. Chapati: If you want to increase your cholesterol level by 100 points this is the stuff to order. 3. Bhindi Curry: I specifically asked if they make fresh.The lady at the counter said it is made fresh per order. My taste buds stopped working after eating this. Taste: Horrible. 4. Falooda: My friend who came with me felt its the worst falooda ever. 5. Chole Batura: Glad they can make batura, but the chole tasted as though it was made few weeks ago. When we ask the lady that these were not good at at all, she tells me this is what they have. Zero reaction from them. Its worst than a railway canteen in India. The ladies working in this place literally saw me dumping this food in trash and they dont even bother to refund my money. Now thats what I call a horrible/ horrendous customer service. I will never recommed this place to anyone ever again. #Gokul Sweets# Sucks#Pissed Off# Go find another place..if you want to get better food for the money you spend.. Wish i could give any negative stars to this place. read more

Very good chaats. I felt like having chaat today and we decided to try this place out. We ordered the Sev puri, Dahi puri, Bhel puri and few Paani puris. In my opinion i thought that the chaats were very good read more

I adore this place! The food is delicious, moderately priced, and the barfi is a bit addictive. I recommend the masala dishes, as well as anything with a cashew coconut sauce. The atmosphere is casual, perfect for lunch or a quick, easy dinner. read more

If you are interested in trying a few items I highly recommend the veg-thali here. The food has a fantastic flavor, very traditional veg dishes, just like nānnī use to make it. The service is what you'd expect, just like you get in India. The Rose lassi is a nice change from the traditional mango or plain lassi. read more

I went Atlanta last month. I luv sweets very much nd then one of my frd suggested me about Gokul sweets. I went there nd had dinner. This was awesome and bought some sweets. Different kind of sweets he packed. Sweets r really yum and fresh. I loved it. Any one who love sweets nd Indian food must to go at least one time. I m waiting when I will go again... read more

Loved this place! Best paneer tika masala I've ever had. The gobi manchurian is something I'd never heard of before going and now order it almost always. As I've never been to India I'm unsure if this is legit, but it feels legit inside as I'm often the only white person as well as the taste being out of this world. Lastly, mango lassi game was on point. read more

Horrible experience n horrible sweets. Bought a box of 3 Rasmalai which said 6.99 per pound. When we opened the box. There was one small piece n half broken piece n all milk to increase the weight. The taste of the same was horrific as if it was a month old. We opened other packets of sweets and namkeen that we had bought n all were tasting old. Had a bad stomach after eating it. Never going back again. Sweets at neighboring shops are of much better quality. read more

We went as a family for an evening dinner and were served food at the Duluth Gokul sweets. When asked about the spoiled food, the management was rude and said that they were serving the same food to all the customers and no one complained. Very rude to customers after serving spoiled food read more

Awesome place. Great chat and dosas. They have a wide verity of sweets and namkeen. They also have a paan shop which is nice. Highly recommend. read more

This place is a VEGETARIAN'S PARADISE. If you are a vegetarian, love Indian food, you got to visit this place. I was in Atlanta for couple of months. I used drive about 35 minutes one way to buy food from Gokul Sweets and keep it in my fridge for next couple of days. Most of the stuff is very good. I ate Chole Bhature several times, got carry out of Vegetable Biryani, Gokul Special Biryani, Paranthas, Mix Vegetable Curry. Compared to other items, I would rate their platter as very good (not excellent). It is a busy place but orders are prepared very quickly. The only complaint, I have is that food is little more oily (though tastes good). They also have a sweet shop. They have a huge variety of Indian sweets. More than you can taste or try. I have been avoiding sweets for a while (without health reason) because I am trying to stay on a low carbs. Once I bought Jalebis and Rabri, I got hooked. It is a pure vegetarian restaurant. The owners are from Agha Khan community and from Hyderabad, India and are very nice people. I miss Gokul Sweets. read more

Please Beware Of The Sweet Store. I went for the first time. I will list the pros and cons Pros: Taste is Ok Cons: *Too much oil in the food *I am still trying to broke the halwa, still I couldn't *Yucky environment . You need wipe your table before using it. *Put the wrong bill purposely. When i asked for itemized bill,I found out that they added $1 for extra. TOTALLY BITTER EXPERIENCE read more

I ordered some sweets online and my order never got shipped. I emailed the owners twice but they did not have the courtesy of replying to any of my email. The service is totally unprofessional. Would never ever purchase anything from them. read more

All the gokul lovers like the page.https://www.facebook.com/pages/Gokul-Sweets/219777288167100 HAPPY DIWALI!!!

I admit. I used to be a vegetarian-cist. Even though some of my colleagues were vegetarian, I never fully thought of them as equal to us, the carnivores. Then, a friend of mine, who straddles both worlds effortlessly, took me to Gokul Sweets. I've been ashamed of myself since. Don't be fooled by the word, "Sweets." Yes, there's plenty of that - South Asian style - but this place offers much more: A variety of small snacks all made with incredible spices and without any meat. Its style is "chaat," which refers to "small plates of savory snacks, typically served at the side of the road from stalls or carts" in India, Pakistan and Bangladesh, according to Wikipedia. If you're a fan of South Asian cuisine, go tonight. If you're not, get ready to convert. But, a disclaimer: This place is hardly a candle-lit, rose-aroma wafting kinda joint. Its decor is nothing more than tables and chairs. You call it bare, I call it minimalist. Tables, chairs, a water fountain. You eat, you get the hell out, the way immigrants do it. As for the food, Nan seems to be extremely unique here. It's deep fried, puffy and as big as a baby's skull. Steam rises. Literally. My favorite was sev puri, a snack in the form of puff balls filled with tangy-sweet puree. Sorry, I forgot which type of sev puri I tried. In addition, there are choices of curry, rice, even special sandwiches "chaat" style. With that, I can now say "Hey, I'm not a vegetarian-phobe. Some of my friends are vegetarians." read more

The restaurant is unhygienic. I have seen people change their baby's diapers on the table. I will make sure I report to the authorities. After that I have stopped going to this restaurant. Also the potato in one of the vegetable curries was uncooked. The serving size and quality of food is also not consistent. The lady at the front desk is also very rude. read more

This is their original location and I highly recommend it over the other one. Classic! Lots of different Indian snacks and entrees to choose from. Everything is vegetarian in here. The variety of desserts are ridiculous. This spot has been a vegetarian favorite for Atlanta folks for as long as I have been living here. Although this is an order at the counter only, plastic plates, no waiter, etc - the food and quality are well worth it. read more

My first & last visit. Horrible service & food. Both the girls working behind the counter lack customer service skills. The food was bad tasting & expensive read more

It's like going back to India. All kinds of food from dosa, pav bhaji to veg manchurian. Pretty much everything. Fast food, sweets, pan, kulfi. Must try mysore masala dosa, sambhar is very good. Pan and kulfi to end the day with perfection. read more

I love chaat. And this is really good chaat. The other food is solid, but? not exceptional. The paneer 65 was not as spicy as we were expecting, but it was addictive. The mixed vegetable curry has a good variety of vegetables, and serving sizes were plentiful. read more

Worst food amongst all places I have eaten in so far in Atlanta. This place used to be one of the best and tastiest food. Seems there is a change in cook and owners. Almost all the dishes were distasteful, cold. The servers barely cared. Service was senseless. They are bringing half of the dish 15 mins before the rest half. Awful! I will not come to this place with this pathetic quality of food and service. read more
