We had 3 lamb chop platters, chicken tika platter, and hummus with the best flat bread anywhere. Now I think the prices were a bit higher but we all only talked about how good the food was and looking forward to finishing our leftovers the next day ... if not for breakfast. I'm really torn having to write this review as I really don't want anyone getting in the way the next time I want to visit.

From Goat curry, Keema with kebab pieces, curry chicken, saag paneer, chole and much more. This place is sure to deliver. Chicken tikka masala/Butter chicken is just right for the American palate while the other dishes taste like momma's cooking. Roti and naan were pillowy soft and came out piping hot. Can't wait to come back again. This is my 4th time here and this place has never let me down. If you're in the mood for South Asian food you've got to give this place a try.

| Deeply Disappointed -- What Happened to Baithakh?…read more Baithakh used to be one of our favorite go-to spots in North Brunswick. We've always enjoyed the food, but unfortunately, something has definitely changed since our last visit -- and not for the better. We ordered several dishes, including the Baithakh Seekh Kebab Roll, Crispy Fried Chicken Burger, Beef Paya, Beef Nihari, Peshawari Mutton Karahi, and Chicken Malai Boti. To our surprise, nearly everything was a letdown. The Beef Paya and Peshawari Mutton Karahi were both swimming in oil and severely lacked flavor, which was shocking considering how good they used to be. The Fried Chicken Burger had decent seasoning, but the chicken itself was tough and rubbery -- almost inedible. The Chicken Malai Boti was okay, but even that wasn't as tender or flavorful as we've had here before. Maybe they've changed chefs or recipes, but the quality just isn't the same anymore. Baithakh had never failed us before, but this visit was a major disappointment. Sadly, we're giving it a 2 out of 5 stars. We hope they find their way back to the standard that once made them great.

Still love Adam Kabob (used to be Jahan Kabob) with fantastic ervice and a few Afghani (or is it…read morePakistani?) inspire dishes. Very flavorful and less oily now. But salty.

We have been regular customers at Good Food by Uzma. In the beginning, the food quality and portion…read moresizes were excellent, and we truly enjoyed visiting on weekends. However, over our last three visits, we've noticed several concerns: The taste of the food has changed, and some dishes were not properly cooked. The karahi gosht is no longer prepared the way it used to be, and the portion size has also been reduced. The seating arrangement feels too cramped for the space, making it difficult to move around comfortably. When concerns are raised, the standard response is simply, "we will let them know," without any visible follow-up. We genuinely enjoy dining here and would like to continue visiting. However, the inconsistency in food quality, along with pricing and portion concerns, has been disappointing and is making us reconsider. I would greatly appreciate it if the owner could give attention to these issues, particularly ensuring consistency in food quality and taste.

Good food it certainly is. And it comes close to being great - or 3 days after Pakistan…read moreIndependence Day, I should really be saying "grape" - but for a few minor pitfalls. We came for halwa puri, the classic breakfast of Pakistan and one of the few bright spots for vegetarians in a nation that takes pride in distancing itself from anything veg. The achaari aloo sabzi was absolutely excellent, and the puris were not overly oily. The chole didn't leave that much of an impression on me. We also ordered the mash dal, which was superb. This is probably the most coarse south Asian dal dish, with an appearance similar to bulgur if prepared correctly. It was a treat to try this dish common as a roadside nashta in Pakistan, but rarely prepared in the states. The anda parantha was a disappointment - I was expecting a typical desi omelette, but the paratha was served with two very plain eggs over medium. This should probably be more clearly disclosed in the menu.

And this is where they capitalized. I order the chicken seekh kabob, lamb biryani, Zaika Kabob combo, and karahi. EVERYTHING WAS GOOD. The karahi was as authentic as can be. The kabobs were all tender and delicious. All platters served ample protein. The biryani is usually the game changer for these kind of places. If you do it well, you're in the clear and they definitely do. Also, the naans were fresh! A place that does naan justice, deserves praise. All in all, a very pleasurable experience! Service 4/5 The gentlemen behind the counter was nice and they served our food as quickly as possible. It helped that we were the only ones in the restaurant however. Ambience -3/5 It's really dated inside. The booths are clean but they're just...a weird hunter green. The walls are oddly painted too. The bathroom is disgusting. They clean it but that entire area needs work. Food is AMAZING. Seriously. But don't expect anything from the ambience of the place.
