    Dosa
    Nikita S.

    No complaints about this place. Came in and was able to order quickly. my friend tried a chicken dosa and I tried a pesarattu with mixed veggies - which I haven't tried before. They were kind enough to give me a side of raita without charging, since I like yogurt on everything. My pesarattu took a little while to come out so there was a delay between the two dishes, but the quality was quite good! It was tasty and nicely spiced and the sambar was pretty good as well. I felt like the chutneys were a little oilier than they needed to be, but that's a minor complaint. I would come back if I was in the area!

    Stopped that this restaurant for a quick meal. When I arrived I parked on the street nearby. I walked into a cute restaurant! I was greeted and I ordered a few dishes. I ordered: Lamb dosa pulao channa masala canteen sandwich with chicken gulab jamun The food came out fairly quickly. Loved the canteen sandwich the most! The dosa was ok. The food was good all in all.

    The Traditional Masala Dosa had that perfect, signature crunch, and the potato filling was subtle yet satisfying. The Chicken & Cheese Dosa--who would've thought? The minced chicken was packed with bold flavors, and the melted cheese complemented it beautifully. The Lamb Pulao was an ideal blend of spices, rich and aromatic. The Dahi Puri was an explosion of flavors! Crispy puris loaded with creamy dahi, chaat masala, pomegranate, sev, and chutneys--every bite was a delight. The Paneer Canteen Sandwich was buttery, crispy, and oh-so-satisfying. The Idli Fries and Nutella Dosa were such creative takes on traditional dishes--so fun and delicious, you'd never know they were classics! And finally, the Masala Chai--absolute PERFECTION! Service is quick and food is served hot. The place is very cute and located on a very busy street.

    Madras Dosa is a casual dine-in and take out eatery in Princeton serving a variety of dosas (Indian fermented lentil crepes) as well as other South Indian lentil based delicacies such as uttapam and pesarattu. They have a long list of unique dosa fillings including paneer, onion, eggs, Indian flavored lays chips, crushed samosas, and even meat fillings such as lamb, chicken, and beef and sweet fillings such as Nutella and strawberry jam. The items are prepared by the efficient staff known as "dosa jockeys" in an open kitchen with limited seating available. The dosas are delicious with golden crispy edges and tender warm filling. The canteen sandwiches are particularly unique and delicious consisting of three slices of bread with one in the middle toasted with melted chili cheese, shallots, and cheddar. It takes 25 minutes to prepare. We washed it down with sweet lime soda, an Indian concoction that is hard to find outside of India consisting of lime soda, cumin powder, rock salt, lime slices, and mint leaves.

    We were looking for a quick bite after visiting the beautiful Princeton Art Museum, and we found a…read moregreat place! At first, walking in gave me a wave of nostalgia because it reminded me of the Olives I used to visit in New York City. While it's not the same restaurant, this one absolutely stands on its own. I ordered the chicken salad sandwich, and my husband had a kale salad loaded with vegetables and all kinds of good things like pecans, carrots, red cabbage, chick peas and more...he loved it. Everything tasted incredibly fresh, and you could tell the quality of the ingredients was a priority. The pricing was also very reasonable, especially for how good the food was. We took our meals to go and walked down the street to a picnic table, which made for a perfect, relaxed lunch in Princeton. Great food, great value, and a spot I'd happily return to. There were also some really good desserts to pick from as well, but I passed them up. Pro tip... there can be a line to order your food during busy times of the day.

    This location opened I believe 1/21/25 so it is still fairly new. I have been here 4 times now,…read morethe first visit was a few days after they opened. Naturally, there was a new store glitch with the CC machine so I ordered online while in the store. And have ordered on the app since then just to have my sandwich ready or near ready when I get to the store. No issues for me & they have a frequent purchase program when you sign up. I have ordered the Classic Chicken club twice, the American Wagyu Club & most recently the Chicken Cheesesteak. The club sandwiches were quite stuffed & almost hard to eat (not something I'd eat in my car!). I did find the hand pulled turkey on the dry side though. I also stopped getting salt added as the first time it was a bit heavy handed with the bacon on the clubs. The Wagyu was good, may have to try it solo at some point. Also, my first club was the Medium 10" size & I couldn't finish it, all "Small" 8" sandwiches since then. I was disappointed with the Chicken Cheesesteak. It was not as "stuffed" as the cold sandy's. And the Chicken had an odd texture, a bit chewy. But cheesy as you can hopefully see in the pix. For dining in, they do have about 5 tables. So that's an option if desired. Will be going back to try a few of the other options & will update this review as needed. :)

It's not a mystery why the Earl of Sandwich was beheaded. The "Princeton Price" is in overdrive here. Three stars for the quality.

He had a ham and brie and I had brie and fig jam. Sandwiches were kind of small for the price. Drinks are expensive. But I guess considering the area, maybe it's not. Employee who first greeted us was very friendly and answered questions we had. Service was pretty quick although if you are paying by card, you have to pay at a kiosk outside and can only pay cash inside unless you are buying cheese or meats or anything else from the store. Not sure why you can't order food inside. Place was cute although very small.

    Very impressed with my first visit to D'Angelo's! I was in town for the Princeton graduation…read morefestivities, and we stopped here for lunch following the ceremonies. D'Angelo Italian Market is located a few blocks away from the Princeton campus. It is a corner store with some street parking around, along with a parking garage right across the street. I have been told parking is strictly enforced by the city around here, so make sure to pay for street parking when you go. The inside is that of an Italian deli and market, but more. There is seating inside, and also some outdoor tables. There is not table service, but you order at the counter and then can enjoy your meal. We had a part of 7, and were able to push a few tables together inside to eat. They have a ton of deli options, but also have baked goods, breads, and pizza slices that you can buy from the counter. Additionally, there is a large menu of other food items that are made to order. There are also cooler drinks to choose from. The staff were all so friendly. It appears they know their frequent customers, and they greet them as they come in. Though I was a new customer, I felt welcomed and thought all of my questions were answered in a kind manner. We ordered several items, with one being the Eggplant Rollatini for an appetizer. This was so good, as I love eggplant in Italian dishes. It was filled with cheese, but still crispy and delicious even in all the sauce. We ordered more rolls than what is on the menu since we had several people. Additionally, we sampled several of the pizza slices - Margherita Pizza, Parmigiana Pizza, Vodka Sauce Pizza. I enjoyed each of them. The crust is thin and crispy, as you would expect from a place like this. They were all good, but the classic Margherita was probably my favorite. For my sandwich, I got the Turkey Supreme Hero. It was really good and had a ton of meat on it. I love a good turkey sandwich, and this was exactly that. After seeing what the sandwiches on the rolls looked like, I probably would have gotten that instead of the Hero. Nonetheless, it was still very good. Our table got some other items, like the Princeton Tiger Hero, Bacon Cheeseburger with Fries, and a Pepperoni Roll. No one had anything they did not enjoy. Did not get the chance to try either the desserts or any of the all day breakfast items. The next time I visit, I would definitely want to try some of those menu items! Like I said, I very much enjoyed my first visit to D'Angelo's. Everything was delightful, the staff were very friendly, and I enjoyed the atmosphere of the shop. I hope to visit again next time I am in the area. Would highly recommend stopping here!

I posted a picture of the menu cover (see photo: www.dangelomarket.com) which has the website with a good listing of the menu. Although we got a slice with ziti on it and I do not see it on the menu.

I forgot to take a picture but they had these peppers stuffed with cheese and prosciutto. They were $12.99/lb but they were excellent.
