    Nimbu opened recently and having missed the Yelp event to try this place I had it in my to try list Their claim of the Best Vada Pav in Nj had to be validated as I am a Vada Pav Enthusiast Being in the area and spotting this place in the neighboring strip mall we decided to walk in Loved the airy atmosphere, eclectic decor and open food prep kitchen . The large real to life Indian Bull statue was unique , some books n sauces on display in a warehouse feel .The staff were friendly and welcoming. We had to try their famous Vada pav and it didn't disappoint. Crispy delicious Vada nestled inside a soft pav ( bun) with a spicy chutney at the base . It lived up to its reputation. Vada pav lead to wings , Smokey sticky saucy slightly crispy but the chicken felt a bit tough . That lead to lamb kofta bowl which was a flavor packed bowl of rice salad n meaty goodness . The lamb want super tender but it had good blend of spices . We kept going enjoying every dish and advancing to the next . The Nimbu paani ( lemon juice ) helped wash things down to keep our food journey going. I would go back to try their brunch on a Sunday

    All the flavors are absolutely delicious here. Vada pav full of flavor, geela bhel very refreshing and the naan tacos with butter chicken are really good, service was surprisingly fast, considering someone before me ordered what felt like the whole menu. The visuals of the restaurant are really inviting and appealing would definitely come back here. Very good food.

    Food here is so fresh and delicious. Came here with my husband and he was so happy we did. He couldn't get enough of the chicken and rice, the lamb, the other random things we had. I can't name anything by name BUT, the food really was that good. It was so good that we couldn't wait to bite into the next dish coming out. We didn't care what it was, everything was so good. The staff was friendly and happy to see us, the place is adorable. The decor is awesome. The cow, the neon lights & the stylish furniture was so cute to dine in. I definitely recommend coming here. It's the perfect place to grab a bite & try something new.

    This place is a must try for great Indian food! The Lamb Kofta Rice Bowl and the Butter Tikka Rice Bowl were both outstanding, super flavorful and perfectly cooked. The Vada Pav sliders (potato‑based) are another must‑order. So good! The Nimbu Pani was the perfect refreshing, lemony drink, and ending the meal with a hot Masala Chai was the best way to wrap everything up. Service was excellent fast, friendly, and welcoming. Everyone was genuinely nice. The space itself has a great vibe and decor. I loved the seating and the artwork throughout the restaurant. Highly recommend and plan on returning soon!

    Omg the food is out of this world!!!!! The seating is also cool and the whole inside is extra cool!! I am coming back for the tacos and mango lassi! ( I skipped the mango lassi because I just had a soda and I totally regret that) service is also fast and the front counter lady ringing me up was patient and sweet !

    Nimbu opened this location a few weeks back during the blizzard of 26. I wanted to try the Pennington space but never got around to it. The opening weekends saw a limited menu, now they are fully open( only up to 5 pm I believe) and have a few more options on the menu. I grabbed takeout around lunch time and was happy with my selection. I ordered the wings and chicken tikka wrap. I had the wrap as soon as I was home, paratha or a similar type of Roti was used and worded great. Inside was chargrilled chicken with a slaw and picked veggies I think. It was smoky and spicy, the kind of spice that might be a level too hot, except that the flavors are so rich you have to keep on eating it. The meat was tender and a good amount. I reheated the wings later and found them very enjoyable too, on the small side though. I'd get both items again. The interior is similar to that of the last occupant, but can be categorized as open concept and upscale and inviting. Customer service is very friendly and items were package neatly, even rice snacks were included with the wrap. I work very close and will definitely return to try more things. I would like to see a few meal options, right now it's apps or lunch type items.

    I was here for a Yelp event and returned with my wife a week later. This place is great albeit on the pricy side. The staff is so welcoming and warm and the food is fresh and delicious. Almost everything is made in house including the chutneys which are delicious. The chai is the best I've ever had.

The staff were lovely and were happy to point out the vegan food for me at the Buffett. The chili mushrooms are da bomb. Rarely in NJ - and even rarer I am out this way.

The owner appeared to spend much of the evening drinking and talking, which often interrupted the flow of the karaoke program and reduced opportunities for others to sing. I also felt that personal boundaries were not always respected, and some interactions with female guests appeared overly familiar, like touching females. During the recent month karaoke the owner hugged a female in the most embarrassing awkward way, in the pretext of asking sorry, that she had to struggle to get of. He keeps hugging every female for some reasons. High time he stops misusing his event. Do not touch a female unnecessarily. A karaoke event should be welcoming and respectful for everyone present. A little more professionalism, decorum, and consideration for participants would go a long way toward improving the experience. If you organize an event, it should primarily be for the enjoyment of the guests, not for yourself.

We ordered from Indian Hut through GrubHub on one of those nights when nobody wanted to cook and hapiness seemed balanced entirely on whether or not naan would arrive warm. My wife got butter chicken because some people discover a thing they love and wisely refuse to gamble with happiness. It was genuinely good. Rich, comforting, sweet in the proper way. The sort of dish that makes you sit quietly for a moment and forgive the world for inventing email. I ordered the malai kofta. The sauce was lovely, silky and fragrant, but the kofta itself had the texture of damp gravel held together by optimism. Gritty and loosely packed. Every bite felt like it had been assembled during a minor labor dispute. Then came the revelation that neither entrée included rice, it was an add on. This struck me as somewhat unsettling. Serving Indian curries without rice feels like giving someone a violin without strings. Yes, technically the object exists, but now everybody is sad and confused. The naan also didn't rescue the evening. It emerged from it's foil cocoon gummy and tired, like it had already lived a long and difficult life before reaching our doorstep. The tragedy here is geographic. Lawrenceville and the surrounding area are overflowing with excellent Indian restaurants. Places where the spices sing hymns and the bread seems blessed by small and benevolent gods. Against that competition, this meal just sort of sat there under the kitchen light wondering what happened. Not terrible. Not memorable. Just one more delivery bag entering the great American night.

Same price as everywhere else, yet lower quality. Didn't taste very fresh. Tables inside were dirty and service was slow. Wouldn't go again.

    I came here with my family a couple weeks ago because we had a pretty good discount (not the…read moreGroupon). The place was a bit hard to find at first because I think they still had their old restaurant name up... The inside is fairly romantic and dimly lit, with tables along both walls and a row in-between. I was really excited for the dosas on the menu because I haven't had them in a while, but our server said they don't serve/were not serving dosas. Didn't even get an explanation. We ended up getting the fried appetizer platter, cauliflower paratha, palak paneer, lamb curry, lamb pasanda, and a mango lassi. The fried appetizer platter had an assortment of samosas, veggie pakoras, etc. I thought it was pretty good, especially the samosas. Cauliflower paratha was very oily. Palak paneer was completely off; I've ordered palak paneer from dozens of Indian restaurants, and this just did not taste like what it was supposed to. The lamb curry was alright; the lamb pasanda was much better. Some of the food here is good, and others aren't, so it's a bit of a risk if you're willing to take it. Cool bowls though.

The aloo paratha was fine, the lassi was fine. The egg biryani good - nothing special.

The samosa was dry and flavorless. I paid for the pair, asked one to be wrapped up and it vanished never to return. Guess they'll reheat it and sell it the next chap. Frankly that's what it tasted like - reheated leftovers. But that was money out of my pocket. The chicken tikka was leathery and without my flavor. I asked that to be wrapped up and the next server refused. So he grabbed the warm skillet handle to push it towards me as if to ensure I understood my job. He didn't burn himself. I suggested he try again. So I dustily speared the dry chicken chunks and plopped them in the cheap styrofoam container he'd throw on the table then threw the stale cold rice on top. Voila. My thanksgiving dinner the next night. Topping off the experience was the shabby bathroom. I share pics. Hallmark for me of an eatery I won't rerun to is an unclean lavatory. Should have known. Mirrored the exterior entrance. Lack of care and maintenance. Also a couple came in while i was there, sat down but then ten minutes inexplicably left. The sole positives? Low key light jazz in the background and a homey atmosphere. But i could get that at home.
