    Samosa Chaat, Sauces and Green Salad
    Amanda G.

    This review is for a delivery we received. We ordered their butter chicken, samosa chaat, garlic naan and what was supposed to be their lamb tikka kahari. My problem is that it definitely was not lamb. It was gamey as all hell and being Jamaican, I can tell goat meat a mile away because it's actually one of my favourite proteins in west Indian cuisine but it's hella seasoned which kills the gamey aftertaste. Lamb is also one of my most favourite proteins as well. I love the flavor of it, whether it's a chop of a leg cut. Everything else was great. Their samosa chaat has chick peas, spices and smashed pieces of samosa. It's perfection. The butter chicken was great, as was the naan. That "lamb" was inedible. It tasted like it had been walking on a farm two seconds prior to being cooked and delivered to our house and again, there was no lamb in that dish and that was a disappointment. We loved it when we dined on premises but if I have to worry about getting what I ordered and paid for just because it's take away, I don't want to go back there. No one likes a bait and switch.

    41. Kabab Masala

    I had tried this place a few years ago, pre pandemic, and was pleased to finally have a nice sit down Pakistani restaurant. After that I ordered take out a few times. Recently after not going there or ordering take out for a few years, I decided to order delivery. I ordered the chicken Karahi & the kebab masala. The Kebab masala was just ok, nothing special at all, and the chicken Karahi was definitely NOT Karahi, it was just some kind of chicken in masala. To be honest the Naan & salad were better than both dishes. Not sure if they are under new management or have a new cook, but we definitely did not enjoy the food this time around. Delivery was on time and the restaurant followed my instructions ( I asked for the chicken Karahi to be made with boneless chicken).

    The incomparable Nawab. An absolute must in Westchester County. My husband and I have been coming here for about 8 years. The food is delicious and the service is delightful. Our favorites are the naan bread, the mango lassi, the mixed platter, haki chili chicken and the nawab chicken. Don't miss it!

    Absolutely delicious "Mixed Grill for one"! Five-star service! Will definitely be back, inshAllah.

    I can't begin to describe my satisfaction with this place! First and foremost, the food! Why?! Cause it's AMAZING!! Now, I do love Indian cuisine so I admit my bias, however that also gives me permission to admit my desire for satisfying flavor. Well, this place provides it! I've been twice now and both times a hit. First time I had a vegan dish which was delightful with a punch of spice. Second time had butter chicken and well (insert drool emoticon). All of the food is home cooked. Try their naan and you will know exactly how I know this! Due to the special care that goes into home cooking, expect a bit of a delay. I order in advance to eat in the restaurant (insert mad scientist emoticon)!!! The restaurant is cute, a bit cold, and always plenty of space. The music they play is incredible! Frankly I'd stay just to jam out. The waitress is great! Nothing more to say on that. This place has become a staple in my yelp book!

    This was our first time trying Indian food and to say the least we were not disappointed. The food was very flavorful and fresh. And the ambiance was lovely as well. Very lovely service and generous servings. We were a party of 3 and had enough to take home. Chicken & Veggie Samosas: very flavorful and cooked to perfection. Generous fillings & comes with an assortment of chutneys and salad for the table. The veggie samosas are pretty spicy. Chicken Tikka Masala: my favorite dish of the evening. Amazing flavorful and succulent chicken. The sauce is delicious with a subtle spice. Butter Chicken: lovely sauce again, very fresh and juicy chicken. Less flavorful than the tikka masala but also a solid choice. More of a very subtle creamy sauce. Daal: very well seasoned and prepared. Garlic Naan: DELICIOUS! We literally couldn't get enough fresh garlic and seasoning served hot and fresh. Mango Lassi: interesting but also very nice. Strong mango & yogurt flavor but not to heavy like a smoothie. Overall we were a party of 3, shared the meal and still had enough to take home.

    This is considered samosa chaat to nawab owners....
    Itsme I.

    I would give this place no stars! This is their samosa chaat.....no samosas just these freezer made triangles...this is a joke! This cost me 8 dollars! No yogurt no seasoning just plain chickpeas with these small things!

    overall I thought the food was good, portions were huge, and prices were reasonable…read more The restaurant itself is pretty simple -- don't expect a fancy dining environment -- but the food is definitely the main point here. 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.

    Updated Review - The defensiveness about the owner response says everything. No such conversation…read moretook place about the very friendly nut facility. That is false. At no point were we told that your restaurant could not safely accommodate her allergy, nor were we advised that we should not dine there because of the risk. We certainly were not presented with the conversation you are now describing as though we knowingly disregarded a clear warning and chose to proceed anyway. Had we been told that our daughter's allergy could not be safely accommodated, we would have left. Her safety is obviously more important than having dinner at any restaurant. What is especially troubling is that, despite notifying your staff of her peanut allergy, our daughter experienced an allergic reaction while dining at your establishment. That was the reason I had to leave abruptly. Trying to redirect the focus onto the fact that your kitchen uses third-party products or has a risk of cross-contamination does not change the fact that your staff was informed of her allergy before she was served. Regarding the service, reviewing timestamps on security footage does not capture the attentiveness, communication, delays, or overall quality of service at our table. And regarding the bill: I never stated that an employee walked up to me and verbally accused us of not paying. My concern was the manner in which my husband was treated after I suddenly had to leave with our daughter because she was having an allergic reaction. I had no reason to fabricate the negative portions of our experience. I would have much preferred for your response to simply acknowledge that a child with a disclosed peanut allergy experienced a reaction in your restaurant. Instead, your response appears focused on disputing our experience and placing responsibility back on us. That is disappointing and, frankly, reinforces my concerns about how this situation was handled. Previous Review: The food was delicious and beautifully presented, which unfortunately made the rest of our experience even more disappointing. Service throughout the meal was quite slow, but the most concerning issue occurred after our daughter experienced an allergic reaction. We had specifically informed our waiter that she has a peanut allergy, so having her develop a reaction during the meal was extremely alarming. Because of the situation, I had to leave the restaurant urgently with our daughter while my husband remained behind. What was particularly upsetting was the way the staff behaved afterward, seemingly concerned that we were attempting to leave without paying the bill. In the middle of dealing with our child having an allergic reaction, being treated as though we might skip out on the bill was incredibly upsetting, unprofessional, and frankly disturbing. Of course the bill was going to be paid. Our immediate priority in that moment was making sure our daughter was safe. While the food itself was excellent, restaurants have a responsibility to take food allergies seriously and to respond with professionalism and compassion when a medical situation occurs. Unfortunately, the way this situation was handled overshadowed what otherwise could have been a very enjoyable dining experience.

    We love ordering from Coromandel and while I miss dining in their old location, I am very happy…read morethat we are finally able to order and have the same great food brought straight to our home. It's convenient but I would prefer the delivery money go straight to them. Unfortunately, because of the distance, we have to use third party delivery. Last night, I was craving something healthy, so we opted for Indian. My son and I shared our dishes, shrimp biryani and lamb saag, hubby had his tandoori chicken and our Little had some butter chicken. We got some garlic naan and pickled veg (achar) on the side, along with a mango Lassi. Everything was great, although the saag was a bit bland to me. Next time I order it, I think I'll ask for them to spice it up because my usual go to is their phaal, so that's probably why I felt it was missing something. In any case, Coromandel will always be our local spot for Indian cuisine.

    I ordered delivery from here. The food arrived impressively hot…read more I was a bit underwhelmed by the flavors. The kadai paneer, saag paneer, and daal all tasted a bit sour. They also don't allow you to ask for additional spice, which may have helped with the taste. On the positive side, the paneer was firm and the dishes included a generous portion of it. I enjoyed the chili garlic and pashwari naan. The sweetness of the latter was great for dipping in the savory sauce. The plain naan was a bit tangy. The vegetable samosas were large and very crispy. Overall, a decent option for Indian cuisine, but not my favorite.

    My friend and I enjoy trying different ethnic restaurants. I found Balochistan Restaurant on Yelp…read moreand knew it was our kind of place! Have to admit that I needed to do a bit of an internet search to learn about the Balochistan region. We showed up at 6 on a Tuesday and had the place to ourselves. Super authentic and vibrant decor! While they do have an option to sit on the floor at low tables, we elected to sit on amazingly comfortable chairs. The gentleman who seemed to be the owner was friendly and professional. On my request, he gave some information about Balochistan and then some great food recommendations. We ordered the mutton Rosh and a mixed grill platter. We added an order of the naan, which was perfect with the mutton. The mutton itself was super tender and came with nice condiments and a lentil side dish. The mixed grill platter had a pop of spice. The beef and lamb were tasty but we both thought that the chicken leg quarters were one of the better chicken dishes we've had in a while! Washed it all down with the salty lassi drinks, a perfect yogurt savory complement to the meal!

    A very disappointing experience overall. We ordered Mutton Rosh, Kabuli Pulao, a mixed platter, and…read moreBeef Chapli Kabab. Aside from the chops in the platter, nearly everything else was overly dry and tasted like it had been sitting for some time. The Rosh portion was quite small, and the chapli kababs were overcooked, hard and lacking moisture. When we brought this to their attention, the response was simply, "sorry, it was cooked too well," which was far from satisfactory. Additionally, the utensils and plates did not appear properly cleaned, raising hygiene concerns. The seating area is also quite cramped and uncomfortable. Considering we spent around $230, the experience fell well below expectations. I would not return.
