Tandoori chicken, Eggplant Bharta, raita, naan, mango lassi

Authentic Indian food, spicy served steaming hot by a friendly server! Casual vibe. Great value. Vegetarian entrees!

New Hope Spice Lover on Bridge Street, New Hope, is a six table Indian restaurant that makes up for its small space with oversized flavor. Be prepared for intense curry, chili, turmeric and other south Asian spices, because when the chef asks how hot do you want it, he means it literally. There is no downgrade of the heat quotient for western tongues. You get the original intensity without American dilution. Our meal consisted of the following: * Appetizers: *Lasooni Gobi - Garlicy Chinese/Indian crisp cauliflower. Excellent * Kachori Chaat - Puffed pastry stuffed with "moong dai" and topped with mix of chutney, onion, tomato, yogurt and sev. Unusually flavorful. *Vegetarian: *Malai Kofta - veggie balls in mild cream sauce and cashews. Easy to like. * Non Veggie: Chicken Korma - mild creamy beautiful orange sauce. Delicious. * Lamb Chops - Tandoori grilled tiny on bone. Wonderful, but about two bites each. * Garlic Naan - Crispy baked in the tandoori with lots of minced garlic - perfect for wipe up duty of all the sauces. We enjoyed the entire meal, but probably would go easier on the cauliflower dish which was a bit of a challenge due to the heavy dose of heat. Service was pleasant and timely, especially given the table of 8 that came in right before us, and kept the servers extra busy, and were loud enough to keep everyone alert if not annoyed.

This is a brand new Indian restaurant located in New Hope just a few hundred feet from the bridge that takes you to Lambertville, NJ. They are not even open a month. I came here on a recommendation of a friend and a local business owner. First impression was very good. As we entered I was expecting this to just be a small take out place with a counter to eat at. The restaurant has seating for 26! 6 tables that hold 4 people and 1 that seats 2 people we were greeted nicely as we walked in. The restaurant was clean, very reasonable prices, the food was very good and the server was very polite. Like many restaurants in the area it's BYOB which is a great feature. They have a fairly extensive menu with about 7 starters, 3 soups, 4 sides, 10 veggie lover dishes, 9 dishes you can add chicken, lamb, goat, shrimp or fish. They also have 8 clay pot dishes. We started off with the Samosa which is a light pastry stuffed with potato and green peas. You get 2 pieces, we also had the Vindaloo with chicken, which is a coastal Indian dish. This was my favorite dish and you can select the spice level. I made mine mild which is actually closer to medium and it was just right. We also had the Tandorri chicken which was made a little different to what I am accustomed to. I usual find it's made with tensor chunks of chicken. This was a few legs and a thigh. It was mainly bones, so I would not order that dish again. It was tasty, although did not have enough meat. I am sure most of the dishes here will not disappoint. I made a recommendation to them about the Tandorri chicken as well. We also had the Nan bread. I would recommend New Hope Spice Lover overall and will come back to see how they are adapting as a new restaurant.

I was in love with the Indian restaurant that was here before this place so my expectations were low... but the new place really is phenomenal! Ordered chicken saag, which was not even on the menu and they made it to order, without heavy cream or coconut. The garlic naan was sooooo very good. Fair prices. Good portion size. Service was fast, friendly, and accommodating. It has cleaned up nicely since the previous owners, there were some flies in this excruciatingly hot day though. I mean, it's a small place, local business, totally worth the trip. Food has personality. Will definitely visit again.

With a full bar of spinners and dining area the waitstaff works together and before long your food is before you. Our plates looked appealing enough and the portions were generous. My eggs and bacon were basic with no surprises and his pancakes looked fluffy and light. While his eggs were perfectly cooked to order, the sausage was undercooked and still pink inside. The full dining room kept the staff busy and unable to check back in time for the issue to be remedied but we did end up swapping it out for bacon after our meal was finished. There is always room for bacon The place is dated and could use some sprucing up, pricing is slightly on the high end for basic breakfast and no specials that include coffee/tea - that coupled with the undercooked meat. Cross Keys earns three and a half stars with room for improvement.

I of course used Yelp to find a good diner on my drive from New Brunswick to Atlantic City. I found Broad Street located in Keyport not far from the Garden State Parkway. It's your "classic" diner which has that 1950's vibe with the exterior and interior decor. Elvis paraphernalia is featured here. They had a busy lunch crowd. I sat at the counter and ordered a McCaffrey Wrap which comes with grilled chicken, bacon, cheddar jack cheese, lettuce, tomato and honey mustard. It was really good. The side of sweet potato fries were crispy and seasoned just right. The staff were courteous and the service quick. There is a small parking lot that can accommodate about five cars. There was plenty of on street parking. The downtown area was nice and you can take a nice walk after dining here to the waterfront.

Inside, the food was fresh, plentiful, and delicious. We chose side salads instead of fries and they were a great size to start the meal. I had the open‑face Turkey Reuben and the portion was definitely shareable and very good. My husband had the fish and chips and the cod was fried perfectly, 4 nice fillets, crisp outside and tender inside. He swapped the fries for a baked potato and it tasted like it came straight from the oven, hot and fluffy. They offered a long list of specials for 16.99 that included beverage, soup, salad, an entrée and dessert. The cakes and pies looked fabulous and many were ordering dessert. We were too full this time, but next visit we'll save room. Our waitress, Lala, was wonderfu, attentive, friendly and always checking in at the right moments. The manager greeted us warmly when we arrived and again when we left, which added to the friendly atmosphere. Plenty of parking and easy to get in and out.
