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.

Located in Jersey City's bustling India Square, I came here with a friend to try their $21 weekend…read morebuffet. Upon entering the colorful and spacious interior, we were given booth seating. There were a large variety of choices for the buffet, and I tried a little bit of everything. It was all cooked well and wonderfully flavorful with tons of warm seasonings. Stand outs included butter chicken, noodles, curry, and tandoori. I would have liked more seafood options and meat other than chicken though. The Naan was served warm and slightly crisp, while still being soft. I decided to also order a drink called Shahi Falooda. Since I never tried it, I didn't know how it was supposed to look, even though I thought the presentation was a bit weird, as there were pieces of toast dredged in the liquid. When I tried it, there seemed to be all the flavors described, including rose almond milk, tutti frutti, and vanilla ice cream. It tasted creamy, sweet, and unique, with the ingredients mingling well together. Service was definitely lacking. When the bill came, it was listed as a dessert, so I inquired about it. The waiter responded that they did not have the beverage available, so served me something else instead. This really irked me that the waiter would knowingly do this without mentioning up front that they were out of the beverage, allowing me the free choice to either order another drink or not get one at all. The waiter then told us it would be taken off the bill, but a different waiter came out to inform us that the manager would not allow that. While the food was actually pretty good, this was a very upsetting experience and I will not be returning. At least this taught me to always speak up when I have a doubt or question about anything I order.

I don't know why people would say Dahi Puri Chaat is good here---I saw that in reviews on Google…read moremaps and so ordered via DoorDash since I had ordered food from a nearby kebab place. Anyway they didn't even actually make the dahi puri! They just put the puri with some potatoes dry in a container and then on the side gave tiny chutney containers for the yogurt, tamarind sauce & green chutney. Ok if you're putting it separately to avoid sogginess then at least give enough for the dish. It was laughable how stingy they were. Dahi puri is supposed to have LOTS of yogurt and instead this minuscule container of completely watery "yogurt" was not even enough to fill 2 of the puri. $10 plus tax & tip for this?? Also since they didn't make anything why did they keep the driver waiting for SO long? What a complete waste of money & time.

I went to Deccan Spice for lunch since I heard that they had a great biryani. The place was empty…read moreon a weekday at lunchtime. The waiter was very friendly and helpful. I wish that they offered some sort of lunch special, but unfortunately they only have one set menu. They had a lot of seating, and a lounge area as well. I ordered the Deccan special biryani. It comes with boneless chicken, which is actually a favorite of mine that not a lot of places offer. The biriyani was really good, one of the best I've had in a while. It's perfectly spiced and flavorful with a generous portion. It can easily be shared between 2 or 3 people. Overall, I plan on coming back when I'm in the area. The biryanis in Manhattan do not compare to this. I personally do not prefer the Dum style biriyani, so I was very happy the special was a regularly prepared dish. However, they do offer dum biryani as well.

There was a male server who brought us our food- very polite and pleasant. I would say take out is a better option than going there in person.

It's hard to get street parking and I had to pay about $12 for the parking... if not for the parking this restaurant has only positives . I also had food in their Edison branch. We ordered chicken Chuka and it was really peppery and good.. perfect South Indian aRoma and taste.. my friend had fish fry and he just loved it.. there were five or six small pieces of the fry.. I still think it's slightly expensive about $20-$22 for the fish and generally all of the dishes.. the best one was dindukal thalapakatti biryani . Nice and very tasty . Good experience overall. Wanted to give a 4 star but gave a 5 star just for the taste and service !!!
