Excellent service and really good Indian food. Definitely a go back to place.

Nice place to full your tummy! Food is yummy and portion is good. Kind staff and quite environment

Food is good but portion is too small. Need add some more beverages.

I would just say the best Indian restaurant in Newyork, food was so delecious, ginger chicken, garlic naan and dal makhni was outstanding. Really good service, if you are craving indian taste just go mughlai. Hight recommended..

Had a very good experience in here with my wife. The food arrived quickly and the service is just awesome. Prices are convenient.

All was well until I started choking on my naan. When I was finally able to spit it out I see it is this long piece of plastic down in my food. I am disgusted and appalled by the fact that this was even in my food to begin with.

Nice restaurant. Good food and service. Only one odd and funny thing, There was one song that kept playing over, and over again. With only a few words that kept repeating. It was like meditation that started to feel hypnotizing. However, I will go back. The food is to good. Lol

Food and service was great. My daughters first time having Indian food and she loved it. Waiter was very helpful and patient with food options, especially vegetarian dishes.

Excellent Indian food. I did takeout, and the service was excellent, friendly and food ready on time. The lunch/dinner special is a great value with appetizer, entree, rice, naan, and sauces. Generous portions and tasty food. I will order again!

The takeout deals here are amazing! For dinner, you can spend around $16 for an appetizer, a generous portion of Naan, an entree, and a whole thing of rice. The service was speedy, the food was beyond fresh, and the staff was kind. Would definitely recommend, the value is especially great considering you can make it into multiple meals.

Amazing Indian food, I order from here almost weekly! Definitely recommend the veggie samosas, vindaloo, korma, biryani and of course naan. All the tandoori meat it really good too. On top of all that the paneer is homemade and it’s ridiculous.

Food was delicious! I ordered chicken biryani, chicken malai Kabab and an order of samosa and allWere Delicious! This is coming from a Pakistani person who is always in search of Pakistani/Indian restaurants that can make me feel like I’m having home cooked food made by my mom. This restaurant’s biryani was very close! ❤️❤️❤️

Had a post bridal shower dinner here! Excellent food! Everyone raved about it!

The food here is very good, but there are areas that need improvement. Service was mediocre and the time between placing our order and receiving our food was much too long. Also the size of the portions appear to be less than many of the other Indian restaurants in NYC. With some improvement this restaurant could be very good.

Great vegetarian options and amazing taste! Food reheats well too

Ever since discovering this restaurant 2 weeks ago, we came 4 times. I don’t easily return to a restaurant and in fact I was disappointed by most Indian restaurants and by most restaurants in New York. This place is terrific and totally worth the money. No it’s not even close to my apartment but I’m willing to walk >20mins to come here. The service from the two waitresses and waiter is also impeccable. They remember us and they are very kind. Here’s my review of their other restaurant in upper east side— same quality here.I have eaten in hundreds of Indian restaurants (including a dozen in India). This is a humble place that does the job very well unlike the many fancier places that don’t see to know the basics. This city is so much pomp and circumstance that belies an absolute lack of taste and refinement. But I digress. it’s clear that the owner and the team care about the customers and want them to be happy.Recommended dishes: navrattan korma, Kashmiri rice, mughlai fish, Goan shrimp/fish.

Delicious food and great service despite the pandemic situation

The one on 55th is better:/ tried this one twice and no luck

Healthy and tasty vegetarian curry for me. Plus, the atmosphere is cozy and comfortable with decent cultural music. The staffs are nice and friendly.

The atmosphere and service was great. Both our curries were good. It wasnt as spicy as Ive had in the past, but I know that foods from the varying regions taste different. Id go again. Apparently, they have great lunch specials too.

Excellent service, fresh meal at an affordable price. Come during their lunch special (11am - 2:30pm) to get half off ALL food!The atmosphere is casual but inviting, with fun Bollywood music calmly in the background. The tables and decorations are beautiful and functional as well.The staff greeted us well, was patient with our large group (12) and even gave small keychain keepsakes. The owner personally asked us about the food and spice level, and even told us jokes.

The food was okay, not very spicy at all. The portions are small. One order of naan was one piece of naan cut into four pieces. Had to pay for another order for more naan. The water had some floaties in it, not sure what that was about. Our leftover food two of which were sauces, was packaged in white paper takeout containers.

One of the most fantastic experiences of living in New York City is the opportunity to taste authentic and yummy Indian food.Mughlai is a hidden gem in Kips Bay.One of the most delicious and affordable Indian food in Manhattan.As soon as you walk in, you will notice the warm and welcoming atmosphere. They will make you feel at home!They have the best samosa and best Naan in the city. Plus, they have authentic and delicious Goa dishes, which I think are their best offerings: Goa Shrimp, or Goa Fish Curry (dairy-free), it has the right amount of coconut to make you think you are in a tropical beach, even on the coldest winter NYC night. Also, they have my favourite rice, “Kashmiri Pulao,” it is TOO delicious!Plus, they have a great selection of beers, and an unbeatable lunch special that everything on the menu is 50% off.I know we are all trying to find new and great places,so I hope this is helpful!They have another location on the Upper East Side as well.

The owner is very friendly and is like a family. I felt secure in this espectacular restaurant I would not say restaurant I would say house

Lovely food! Great Service! Highly recommend

Solid Indian place just blocks away from Curry Hill. They have a fantastic lunch special that last until 2pm I believe and a great take out combo! Lots of delicious food at a good price!!4 stars cause they currently have a B🙃

Outstanding in service. Of greater importance, the food was delicious. The flavor, spices, the ingredients blended to perfection. Highly recommend.

Delivery took almost an hour and a half and I had to call multiple times to find out what was going on. Owner kept asking me to repeat my address and said the order wasnt in his system. Awful experience, I dont know how this place has so many positive reviews. Would give it 0 stars if I could.

Must go spot for Indian food. Excellent dining with focusing on recipes from North India. Great service and the week lunch specials are 50% the prices on menu !!

I can not believe, for the number of times weve been here, that I never had the vindaloo. Only defense, weve only gone for lunch and I will usually order vindaloo for dinner. At any rate, the goat vindaloo is transcendent. Seriously fantastic.Okay - hands down, the spinach soup is the best Indian soup Ive ever had. We only went for lunch, when everything is 50% off. But, after our first visit, we went back every single day during our visit for more spinach soup! If it is important to you, they have many vegan items, including the spinach soup.The waitstaff here is super friendly and accommodating - they really went out of their way to make us feel at home. Theyre very attentive and almost everyone would come by to say hello to my daughter after our first visit. Everything is made fresh, so the wait time for food is a little longer than at some places, but the wait is worth it!Over the course of our visits we had several appetizers - Vegetable Samosa, Fish Mughlai, Chicken Tikka and the Aloo Papri Chaat. The Samosa was pretty standard for a mid-range Indian restaurant. The Fish Mughlai and Chicken Tikka were small but extremely good - definitely better than my expectation. The Aloo Papri Chaat was a new dish for me - it was superb.We also had the plain Naan, the Keema Naan and the Poori. I had no complaints about any of the breads. They were all good and met my expectations. If that sounds like a lukewarm endorsement, I should say that I feel like Naan is something you either get right, or you dont. Ive never had Naan that I thought was better than anywhere else - it is either delicious or close to inedible.I hope that in our next visit to the city that well be able to visit for dinner!

Delicious! A surprise in every bite :)

The Dum Aloo honestly looks more appealing on their site than in the flesh. youre picturing potatoes infused with deliciousness, but the reality is a bit less exciting unfortunately.

Excellent food and value! The to-go meal, appetizer, entree, bread, rice and dips, all for $17.37! So great!

Ordered Chicken Biryani for pick-up from here. It was ready in time.The biryani itself was fresh, filling and delicious! It’s definitely one of the best I’ve had in Manhattan. 10/10 would recommend.

Mughlai is the best! Love the take out deal

The owner came out and re ordered a dish because it was made a bit to spicy for my girlfriend. Food is yummy. Highly recommend.

Great lamb vindaloo

Great food and big portions! The owner is very nice. Really good take out deal. Overall great experience!

I have never been disappointed , and in my opinion this is the best Indian food in nyc. Every dish is authentic and tasty. I’m always in a rush so I call ahead for take out . Their portions are generous, and just so good. If you never tried Indian food this is the place you want to start . Also the service is prob top 5 best service I’ve ever received and the employees are the best, I feel like family when I come.

Food is good and lunch 50% off

The food is super tasty but mughlai is also seriously one of the greatest values for money among midtown located restaurants. The special, where you get naan, an appetizer and an entree can easily be spread out into multiple meals.Menu recs:Toasted naan dipped into daal shorba is an incredible experience on a cold day.Aloo papri chat hits the spot.Bhindi masala (okra) and their Baigan Bharta (smoked eggplant) are great vegetarian options.Mughlai rogan josh for lamb lovers.Try their biryanis as well, and their mango lassi is great. Can’t recommend it enough.

My wife and I ate here one evening in December 2019 and loved it.The food was great, and very well priced!I had a goat rogan josh and my wife had a tikka masala and we were both pleasantly surprised with our meals.Its not the largest of places so get in early to avoid disappointment.

Ive ordered online before and loved it, but my experience at the restaurant today was quite bad. The food tasted stale and old, like theyd been pre-prepped and stored for weeks. Kulcha was fresh but the Kachori chat and the Dum Aloo both tasted very old.

A superb place for anyone who enjoy the spicier side of cuisine. You can enjoy a variety of meal suitable for every diet. They offer great Chicken Malai Kebab, Boti Kebab (lamb), and Fish Mughlai. If you’re a vegan or vegetarian, then enjoy the Aloo Papri Chaat. I’ll hide its ingredients for your surprise.As always – the staff was fast and polite, and they seem to be handling the take-outs with ease.Mughlai Indian Cuisine is located at 329 Third Avenue in Manhattan. This is a small restaurant where you can taste traditional Indian kitchen. The delicacies you can get are not expensive. The restaurant had a special offer-a 50% discount on the lunch menu. The best meals are Lamb Budja (remember it is very hot), Navratan Korma and Biryani Chicken. This place is suitable for a quiet family dinner. Indian food is delicious. Spices give it a rich flavor, so it is popular all over the world. Im sure that there is no town in the world that has no place to grab part of it. The best Indian restaurants in Manhattan offer delicious cuisine and have the opportunity to stay connected with their respective cultures through food. Be sure to visit them!

Pretty good indian food. The butter chicken is 💯.

Chana masala is very hot. They gave me no forks/ napkins/ anything in the takeout bag. Mo sauces come with takeout.

Some of the best Indian I’ve ever had! So flavorful with just the right amount of kick. Food was delivered quickly and arrived hot. The Gobhi Manchurian, chicken tikka masala, and garlic naan were all amazing, thank you guys!

I live around the corner from here. It is my favorite Indian restaurant ever. I’ve tried almost everything on the menu. You definitely need to order the cauliflower appetizer. It is BOMB. I usually get the butter chicken or lamb curry. Food is consistently amazing and staff is extremely friendly. Vella is usually my server and she is extremely sweet and very attentive. I’ll never stop coming here! Thank you for your great food and service!

Great food, great prices, amazing staff!

Food is delicious and reasonably priced (shrimp curry ftw!!). Owner is sweet and generous.

Tasty and reasonably priced.

Excellent Food, Service and Prices

Great taste, hot, fresh and flavourful food. Service quick and efficient. Place was packed in no time. Would definitely go again. Authentic Indian.

Nice place 👍

Not very clean, but food is good, price is good, service is ok

5 star for service received from very friendly and customer oriented person working over there. (Karachi guy) forgot to ask his name. Tremendous service

Delicious, well portioned and not overtly pricey. Just the right blend of spice and flavor!

Tasty spiced biryani

We enjoyed our meal and the service here! Great food and people. They overheard of a birthday in our group and surprised us with a delicious birthday dessert at the end of our meal. Great staff and the owner was kind and attentive as well.

First the con because if I was an food inspector, Id fail them. Saw the wait staff using their fingers to grab salad to make the salad. Didnt wash his hands or anything. They also took the decorative flower from a customers used plate and put it back into their dispenser tray- for future use. NastyyyyyThe soda bottle I received had arm hair stuck to the metal thing one flips up to open the soda.The food is good and would have received a better rating but I wouldnt go back...

Would surely recommend trying this spot. Fantastic atmosphere, yummy food, good customer service. Highly recommended.

The orders me and my guest made were the chicken and combo biryanis. Great food. It was flavorful and the meats were succulent. The prices were super reasonable as well. The location itself is very cozy, however, still enough space where you do not feel on top of each other and your conversation is not invaded. The amazing service was the cherry on top. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Loved this place. Service was wonderful and the food was outstanding. Prices seem relatively low for New York City. Would highly recommend.

Ordered delivery and loved it every time! Muglai special curry is sweet and spicy—not too spicy. Josh Rogen dishes are delicious—bit more of a flavor than others. Goat curry is great but there is not much meat which might be just how the dish is. Chicken Chettinad was yummy. Aloo gobi (my go to dish) was okay.WE LOVE that we can order a side of dish of the onion relish! I’ve never seen that anywhere!And our little one loved the fried cauliflower appetizer. Muglai fish curry: salmon was dry. Disappointed by butter chicken; the sauce was too tomato-y for me. Watch out for the vindaloo dishes! I can handle spices, but it was pure fire! Will try goat Bhuna next time.

Could not have been nicer, they threw in desert when we showed up to pick it up. Would recommend.

My husband ordered a mixed seafood dish and the calamari were very tough. I ordered a shrimp dish that came with vegetables on the side. The vegetables were definitely either from a can or frozen. Very disappointing as I like well prepared vegetables. Condiments and breads were very good as was the lentil soup. Service was slow between courses even though the restaurant wasn’t crowded. We observed they do a big take out business so that must have been why service was slow.

Amazing take out deal, always consistently good Indian food for the price! Always ask for spicy for more flavor

Food came surprisingly fast (20 minutes). Don’t get the Aloo Gobhi Matar (described as “Pan sauteed cauliflower and potato with cumin, ginger, tomatoes, with peas”) unless you want some big chunks of steamed vegetables in an okay-tasting sauce. Not the flavorful delight I was hoping for. BF said chicken korma was okay. But the naan and apps were good (samosas and yellow lentil soup) and the delivery specials are a great value at least.

Great restaurant! Food, staff and management are the best!

Had a dinner date with a girl who was craving for spicy food. Was pleased to find this place.lived up to the expectations but nothing beats the curries made by mom back home. The curries were flavorful but a little thick to my liking. The girl even admired the plates and glasses as they seemed kingly. The owner was nice and talked to us and also asked us how the food was. We did pack a lot of what we had ordered and had a feast for another day . Nice place overall,

WOW!! This place is delicious & fresh. My fiend asked for not-too spicy and she said it was just right. I LOVE spice, so I asked them to go to town. It was delicious (not just hot but flavorful) and I got that full body heat that youre supposed to get with good Indian food. GREAT PLACE!!!

We liked the food. The eggplant dish had a surprisingly complex flavored. The goat on the other hand, while pleasing, had little meat on its (many) bones. The service was friendly and attentive, and the music a pleasing variation of Western tunes.

The staff and dining area are so welcoming and the variety of food is phenomenal for the price you are paying. They cater well to groups small and large. Highly would recommend to those who live in NYC and those visiting the area!

Great food and atmosphere! Highly recommend this place! Staff was very helpful, they recommended us dishes, because I don’t know a lot about Indian food.. and everything was outstanding! Thanks!

Staff was super friendly and accommodating. The price was right, and the appetizers were delicious. However, the entree didnt have much flavor at all. I asked for extra spicy, and they delivered, but I felt like it was at the expense of flavor. Sorry, but I dont think Ill go back again.

Excellent food. Chicken was beautifully cooked, sauce was the right blend of smooth and spicy , naan fresh and all piping hot on service. Will be coming again for sure!

Delicious!Great atmosphere with traditional accents that give you a warm and cozy experience. The food is awesome along with the family style presentation. AND the naan bread.... just...wow... love visiting here and the staff is always welcoming and friendly.

Good Food, very nice staff. The owner is also nice person and talked to us about the dishes we had. We have been there twice while visiting NYC and like this restaurant. Highly recommend this place.

MUGHLAI has been our quarantine order-in staple—the delivery is free (to our location) and super speedy and the food comes piping hot. Their dishes are boldly aromatic and the ingredients are deftly handled. Vegetables are never overcooked—say goodbye to brownish spinach and say hello to bright green leaves in the Dall Saag, which is mild on spice but delicious and comforting. It’s a nice balance to dishes like Kadai chicken or lamb, which packs a serious spicy punch without overwhelming our (arguably wimpy) tastebuds. Highly recommend ordering the raita no matter what. It goes well with everything and if you have extra is great mixed with sliced cucumber the next day. All the dishes are generously portioned plus tons of rice and make for great leftovers. MUGHLAI never leaves us wanting. The Onion Kulcha, Keema Naan and Peshwari Naan are our favorite breads thus far. Tonight we tried the Adraki Chaap rack of lamb and loved it. The mango chutney is delicious and would go super well on a cheese platter. We have tried ordering from other restaurants during nyc’s lockdown, but this is the only one where we’ve come back for seconds. Tonight was actually our fourth time ordering from MUGHLAI. Even with contactless delivery you still feel a personal connection through this food. Tonight they even added some rice pudding to our order with “from our house” written on the lid. Can’t wait to go to the restaurant and thank the chef in person when the city opens up again.

Tasted ok but made my girlfriend felt a little sick after eating there. The service was mostly fine although the server disappeared for 3-6 minutes when I was looking for the check. The chickpea dish tasted off which is one of the very few times in my life that I did not like an Indian dish.

Mughlai is a great restaurant for a cozy yet elegant meal. There were a lot of options and the dishes were well-priced. The food is flavorful and makes you want to keep eating. Adi, our server, was welcoming and attentive, which can be said of all the other servers we saw.

One of the better Indian places in the area. I already lived three years there (and went to Curry Hill) before discovering this little gem. When you order lunch from the menu, they give you a 50% discount.

Great place! The staff are super friendly and the food is high quality 👍👍

Amazing Indian food. Thats super authentic. And really affordable

Great food and good service. Staff is nice and friendly. Prices are fair too. Went here a couple of times.

This place is an hitting gem for everybody, students, locals, tourist, gourmet eaters...!! Very friendly kind servers, great manager! Food excelent quality and diversity of Indian regions cuisine! Highly Recommende it!! Thank you!!!

I order from them all the time on seamless, and when I went to the restaurant to eat for the first time, I was greeted very warmly by the server Jessie, who also introduced me to the owner. Food is always great- the flavors are delicious. The service is also very good, everyone is so kind. I highly recommend coming here for the 50% lunch deal!

The restaurant is very cozy and the decor is beautiful. I ordered samosas and the shrimp Biryani and it was good, a little spicy but that is to be expected with Indian food. The service was great and I unknowingly went during a lunch special when everything was 50% off. Nice surprise. I would return.

I enjoyed this place very much. The food was delicious and the service was good. I should mention that we asked to switch one of the dishes because it was too spicy for one of us and they did it quickly and pleasantly with no questions asked, and of course didnt charge us for the spicy dish.4 stars because the vibes could be better (we were there at 8 pm midweek for reference), but food-wise we loved it (ordered one chicken dish, one lamb and malai kufta - all were delicious)

The food was delicious, the service was on point and the bill was reasonable. Would definitely come back

What a wonderful experience! Jessie, thank you for the super great welcoming/warming experience. The food recommendations were super tasty and the complimentary dessert was to die for. This restaurant will gave me back.

An amazing spot for a group weekday sit down lunch. 50 percent off! And pretty fast service, too.

Amazing food. Amazing hosts. The chicken curry was exceptional. I was new in NY and did not know that they close at 3pm. So I went in at 2:56 but was greeted me with happy faces. Mango lassi was great too! A must visit.

Got take out, food was delicious. Would return to eat on as well, ambiance seemed nice and the service was great. Definitely recommend.

The food and service was excellent. The restaurant itself was cozy and comfortable.

From the delicious appetizer through the outstanding entrees and great service we really enjoyed Mughali. After we were done eating and declined dessert, the sweet owner brought us a cool refreshing rice pudding anyway. Five stars baby.

Tastes authentic Indian... Liked the environment and people over there.I had to decrease stars from my recent experience. They probably have changed their cook. Taste of the dishes has gone down dramatically. They either miss salt or sugar... I dont know. Not sure whether I will come back, btw Im old customer of this place.

Horrendous! Despite there being 5 open tables, the hostess shoved us into a 2 person table that we couldn’t even get into because it was blocked by a kid’s scooter on one side and a suitcase on the other side. We asked politely if we could sit in a nice table by the window that we could actually get into and was flat out refused, saying it was “Friday night.” We spent the next hour having our wine spilled by the kid with the scooter banging in to our table and having the guy with the suitcase shove chicken into his mouth with his hands. The next two couples in the door were seated at the nice tables next to the windows and seemed to have a nice night. When we inquired with the hostess, she actually huffed out loud and stamped off-like how dare we say something?!? We were repeat customers, but we will NEVER go back. Incidentally, when we left half the tables were empty! Apparently they are not making ends meet because of their seating arrangements, but rather because of the way they treat their “customers.”

Great food, and always ready for pickup when I arrive. Taste is some of the best I have ever had! I usually request for extra spicy and it always delivers on heat while maintaining deep delicious flavor.

I went there at 3:30PM all the way from Bronx. And they were closed. They have the timings on Google maps that says they are open until 10:00PM. But they close at 2:00PM and reopen at 5:00PM I guess. The owner/manager was there and he said he would change the timing. But its still the same. The food is good. I tried on delivery.
