The service is great. They are so very nice and the smell here is amazing and it matches the food because the food will take your breath away.

Aloo Onion Paratha
Binoy V.

Paratha Junction is more than its signature dish. It's a tasty food hub in a retro bollywood train like ambiance. Good portions & reasonable prices with a multi course menu. Service is alright. They probably should've served us water. Food wise, Samosa chaat is delicious. Aloo onion paratha is nice but not extraordinary. Paneer tikka is sizzling & tastes pretty good but the paneer itself isn't as soft. Gulab jamun was little too hot & soft. Pay by cash to save some bucks.

So this place is defo a hidden GEM in Journal square(India square). The ambiance very much resembles if you are in a desi dhaba. Their parathas are the BESTTT! They actually taste like your mon's parathas. Very legit. We tried their Allo and cheese one-both were amazinggg!! Also best part they have a person in front making fresh jalebis right away- they were like heaven!! Defo will go back. MUST try.

Aloo Samosa
Tina T.

I've had some bad luck recently with Indian restaurants in the journal square area. I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of the food here. The lamb samosas are excellent and the best I've had in a long time-- look at the amount of peas in them! The naan was everything I wanted it to be. The mango lassi was delicious as was the daal makhani. The butter chicken was sweeter than I personally like it to be but still good. I would have liked my mains to be a bit spicier but that's on me for not specifying. The interior of the restaurant is snug; its about 3 tables I think so I wouldn't try to bring a very large party here. Food service was relatively quick considering. 9/10 would eat here again and even try a more complex dish...

One of the best Chole bhatura

Amazing food and best chole Bhatura around Jersey city area .. Their new Bfast menu and availability early as 9:30 am is a blessing for tourist looking for an early start.. Most importantly a welcoming and service oriented family owned business makes it feel like home food ..

One of the few restaurants that opened later on a Sunday night. We were surprised how packed it was. (Which is inevitably a good sign, of course). Despite the business, we were able to grab a table pretty quickly and the waitstaff was so attentive and the space was very welcoming and friendly. I got the curry chicken and it was a great choice. Everything was cooked to perfection and came out at a decent amount of time. Not that I frequent Jersey but I'll definitely be returning soon.

Samosa Chaat
Sofyan S.

I got Samosa Chaat for Pick Up here. Considering that Journal Square has so many Indian spots, I'd have to recommend away from this place. I've had samosa Chaat in many other places and this is the worst Samosa Chaat I've had. It was bland, excessively watery, soggy, poorly presented, and tastes like it was regurgitated. I'm normally not picky at all when it comes to food, but this was so bad, I can't even get through a few bites and had to throw it out. I'm giving a two star as a benefit of the doubt but if a common dish like like Samosa Chaat turns out so bad...it doesn't seem promising.

For a place called paratha junction, the gobi and aloo parathas were very weak cold and overpriced ($9). The veg biriyani was impressively bad. The daal and the malai kofta were decent, all of the above made us sick the next morning. Also, the ambiance is not the best - a very fast casual vibe. Overall, would not recommend... lastly, an automatic gratuity was charged for a group of 4 and we were not notified in advance

Vartika S.

I ordered delivery from delivery.com. The order was delivered with an item missing which the restaurant had called me ahead of if the delivery about. When I asked them to refund or redeliver I was told to contact delivery.com or place a new order. So basically they won't do anything to fix their mistakes it's on you! and whatever was delivered was leaking all the way to the outer packing and dripping all over the carpet of my front door. Again they won't redeliver unless you place a new order because they "don't deliver" ( is what I was told my the person who was answering their phones). So now I have to chase delivery.com for refund and the onuses of proof is on you despite having paid in full and tipping!

Paneer paratha
Ronak P.

Definitely a best place for parathas. Cannot think better place other than this the reason for 3 stars is when I check in via yelp I received a promotion to have a free desert of my choice. I requested the same to the lady who was working but the first thing she said is like how do I redeem it (well I am not the one who is working there) nonetheless, I was given a free desert but there was a clear argument in kitchen which everyone in restaurant heard and owner didn't said good about it. Hence, I would not visit the restaurant again after all etiquette matters over quality

Malai Kofta and Daal Makhni
Sne G.

I have ordered food here multiple times, but always stuck to stuffed paratha options. This is my first time ordering curries. I am pretty disappointed as they forgot to add salt in the dal makhani, making it almost inedible. The malai kofta was pretty good.

The inside is nice and bright so it offers a great start to your morning. Also, the wifi is pretty good so no issues from a work perspective. I ordered an avocado toast along with a cold brew. This has somewhat been a routine of mine since moving here and I haven't really been disappointed anywhere I've gone. This was no different. Loved the picked onion addition too. Now - the pricing is not necessarily breakfast pricing. Expect to spend around $20 for both a breakfast item and coffee like I did. But if you have the means to do so, then you might as well.

I took it to the counter and showed it to them. The server asked if it was alive or dead when I found them. I told him it was dead and looked steamed....like it matters... Long story short I asked for refund but they said they have to ask their manager who's not coming back that day since it is holiday and I would need to wait until next day for refund so I end up getting a cheesecake instead. The cheesecake tasted little sour so initially I thought it went bad. Also it tasted like it's been sitting in the fridge for a long time. You know when you taste fridge smell from the food. I lost sanitation of their food and will not recommend it to anyone

For drinks, we went with the non-alcoholic Rose and Peach Please, both of which were refreshing. I also had a cappuccino afterward--while it didn't come with latte art, the taste and strength of the coffee were spot on. On our return visit, we tried the chicken sandiwch, and the pomegranate hummus. The chicken was juicy and the hummus was delcious. Service was attentive throughout, with the staff checking in just enough to make us feel well taken care of. Overall, The Kitchen Step is an excellent find that I'd highly recommend.

We finally had the opportunity to do so on a quiet Easter Sunday. First, the interior looks pretty amazing. A lot of history behind all the architecture and they did a good job preserving it. Because it was raining and chilly, we couldn't see the rooftop, but I can see the appeal. To start, we got an assortment of small muffins for the table. That was a nice touch. They were good too. For brunch, we each ordered omelettes. I got the Jalapeño & Cheddar while my fiancée got the mushroom and spinach omelette. We ended up complementing the items quite well. I did end up enjoying her omelette well. The vegetables were definitely fresh and cooked quite well. My omelette was nice and cheesy, how I like it. The jalapeños didn't have a crazy kick, but enough to satisfy. The potatoes were good too. There's no real coffee menu here (which is a slight miss), but I did enjoy the freshly squeezed orange juice as a nice change. I will be back.

I just tell myself that my dewy glass skin reminds him of frying oil. Anyway, the last time we got together, he picked Skinner's Loft for brunch. I was ready to write the place off, but I was pleasantly surprised by how good everything was. Skinner's isn't going to win World's Best anything, but it's a solid neighborhood spot with big portions for decent prices. The Buttermilk Pancakes were large, fluffy and satisfying. My Croque Monsieur was perfectly crispy and loaded with delicious melted bechamel, gruyere and prosciutto. One of the tastiest Croque Monsieurs I've had, including the ones I enjoyed living in France, and certainly bigger than its Manhattan counterparts. The Crispy Shrimp & Bacon Sandwich was also a pleasant taste bomb of basil, dill & cucumber remoulade, tomatoes, and, of course, bacon. Bottom line: Skinner's offers a brunch that's tastier and more affordable than many NYC joints. When you're hungover on a Sat morning, this might be the best place for you.

I had the Mini-Quibe de Carne e Queijo (Beef Kibbeh) for an appetizer. As one person, I probably could have gotten something smaller than this shareable, but I have zero regrets and I would do it again in a heartbeat. How the Chef managed to get the spice to meat tenderness ratio so perfectly, I'll never know but will always be grateful for. I tried the Cajá juice and loved it! Be forewarned, it is not sweet but the fruit is distinctly tart and refreshing. My (huge) entree, the Estrogonofe (Chicken Stroganoff), was recommended to me by my server, who I trust with all food recommendations now because WOW.
