- Steven StorkApril 6, 2013This place is the best indian I've had. The butter chicken is friggin amazing and the naan is perfect. Staff is super nice. For some reason it's always empty. Try it...cuz I need it to stay in biz.
This is the best Indian food on the Broadway side of Astoria. Carefully developed flavor, a creative menu and an attentive, friendly staff make this a wonderful dining experience.
Stefanie SousaMay 14, 2014Great lunch special deal when I went there: $9 for choice of appetizer, chicken entree and a drink. I recommend the chicken saag, the vegetable samosas topped with a nice and cold Taj Mahal.
Catherine PenfoldMay 9, 2013Not only is the food absolutely delicious, the prices are amazing. Vegetarians and carnivores alike have a lot of spectacular choices. Try the tahli for a taste of many dishes.
Food here is fantastic and a wonderful introduction to Indian food! Great apps, mild chicken dishes with biryani and awesome complimentary rice pudding!
First time here? Go with the classics, you won't regret it. Already a fan of the indian cuisine? Go with the oven specialties.- AliceApril 6, 2013Our favorite Indian place! Sooo good. Have the chicken tikka masala and cheese naan... everything is amazing.
The garden is beautiful and the Indian ragas are very soothing

"While I prefer other spots in Jackson Heights for my South Asian food, I really like Jackson Diner's baingan burta (eggplant w/ ginger), great flavor & kick, vegetarian. Big party room upstairs too."
