Good food, lovely atmosphere, friendly staff. Wide range of types of Indian food, including kati rolls, dosas, and curries. Great addition to the neighborhood. Jun 2023: spicing is very mild, generally. Extensive vegetarian and vegan menu, and lots of gluten-free items.

I highly recommend going to Tamarind to celebrate a special occasion! The chicken tikka masala, chicken takka tak, lamb vindaloo and saag paneer were incredible. For dessert, you must try the cardamom crème brûlée which was unlike anything I had before! I’d describe the menu as elevated traditional Indian food with exquisite flavor. Staff was very attentive (including to gluten free, all nuts and sesame allergies) and the ambiance of the whole restaurant was lovely.

Celiac friendly. Great GF samosas!

Taylor Hine

Our favorite by far. 10+ visits Update - leaving my review made me crave this place but sadly they dropped the ball bad. We accidently ordered 40 minutes before closing thinking they were open until 9 instead of 8:30. That is the only excuse I can really think of but honestly there is no excuse to rush food and tarnish your reputation. The chana Masala wasn't even the same color and tasted as if it were missing an ingredient. The naan was floppy. Mixed tandoori grill was lightly grilled. When j asked for a gluten free sub for naan they gave me naan and charged me for a side of papadum. They managed to whip this out in 10 minutes flat and when I got there at 8:20 they were shutting lights off and barreling out the door.

For years, Dosa Delight has been my favorite restaurant in Jackson Heights. Whether dining in, taking out, or catering, they never disappoint. I highly recommend them as caterers for your next event, especially the palak paneer and samosa chaat. Dosa is also a great option if you have vegan and gluten-free guests. The amount and quality of food is unmatched, and they will absolutely be on-time and professional, making the entire party-hosting experience far less stressful. Even my Keralite parents approve of the dosa here. Management is extremely responsive, helpful, and polite. Thank you, Dosa Delight!

Adin Goldfeder

A quiet, delicious, restaurant with a vibrant menu full of many options for someone gluten and dairy free as myself. The staff was so friendly and helpful! Can’t wait to come back.

Paul Spring

We had a perfect meal at Vatan. Every dish is extremely unique with a different flavor profile, all complimentary to each other and beautifully arranged. Our server, Divisha, was joyful and observant. Very accommodating with my gluten allergy. Will tell all my friends.

I normally do not eat gluten free, vegan, or vegetarian, but this place was just amazing! The food is exquisite, every dish was just right, best spring roll I've had since my grandma's, the peanut sauce was so light yet full bodied, the salad dressings brought out the flavors rather than cover them.... My friend booked the place for her birthday party, the wine selection was really nice, the owner was attentive to our requests and we had a wonderful time. The place is not big but offers a cozy and warm setting, which was perfect for our small party. I used to avoid dining out in vegan places, I thought the food was weird and tasted strange, this place totally changed that, so i will definitely bring my fussy vegan and vegetarian friends here going forward, and would recommend this restaurant to everyone for nice meal with friends or a small dinner party! Thanks Jonathan, for make this event fun and memorable.

Sarah Alexander

Love it here! Many gluten-free, dairy free, and vegetarian options.

Amanda J. Miller

Delicious food! Easy to eat allergen friendly and has gluten free items. Definitely would come here again.

CC Treadway

Aloo Goshti Kathi roll (lamb/potatoes) was sooooo delicious. I’ve come here for years but this was the first time I had that particular roll and I fell in love. It was just so good. I had the chickpea wrap, (the gluten free option). I highly recommend!

Ashley LaVelle

Great vegan and gluten free place for dinner. The mocktails were great, service was awesome. Would recommend!

Really good food. Service was my most impressive experience! My water NEVER got below half full. This personally I love. Staff was fantastic, friendly and they even have a Gluten Free menu to choose from!

Labdhi shah

It’s a nice place offering Jain, vegan , gluten free options. Gobi Manchurian, Onion Pakoda were amazing! We also had gunpowder Mysore dosa Jain and Masala Gunpowder dosa both were great too.. the only thing which was kinda okay wad medu vada, the taste was good but it was kinda hard, maybe it was just a bad batch. But everything else was just amazing. Definitely recommend it and would love to visit again

Barb M

Super yum, fast service, friendly workers, good price point ($15-20), and they have great WiFi when I eat in. I always get the lentil falafel chaat bowl with half rice half salad. The roasted sweet potatoes with the coconut sauce was divine. Complex flavors, gluten free and vegan. Tastes fresh and healthy, not greasy or heavy!

Geoffrey Ekstein

Very friendly and helpful staff. Food is always good. Lots of gluten free options on the menu and in the lunch buffet.

Heather Pitcher

I’ve been to this place several times, but it wasn’t until recently that I discovered and tasted their Buffett. Absolutely delicious! There are a variety of fresh items vegetarian, vegan, and gluten free friendly. The owner, manager, staff are incredible. This is a must.

Kristin Haines

I love the food here. They have great stuff and the staff is always super friendly and I can eat gluten free and that is impt.

Alanna

This is the best restaurant I’ve ever been to. My absolute favorite!! The food is incredible. If I could eat here every day I would. If you have never dined at Himalaya you are missing out. Additionally, I have Celiac disease and never have to worry about getting sick.

Abhilasha Nagrare

I recently visited Karavali and had a great experience exploring the atmosphere and food. The ambiance was warm and inviting, making it a pleasant place to dine. I tried some gluten-free options, including Vegetable Korma, Matar Paneer, and Masala Dosa. The Vegetable Korma had a slightly sweet taste, which may not be for everyone, but the flavors were well-balanced. The Matar Paneer was delicious, and the Masala Dosa stood out not just in taste but also in its excellent presentation. The Garlic Butter Naan was flavorful and complemented the dishes well. For dessert, I had Gulab Jamun, which was slightly hard but still tasted good. Overall, Karavali provided a satisfying dining experience with good food and a nice atmosphere. I would definitely consider returning to try more dishes!

Jackson Miller

Really delicious food and great service! Great accommodation for gluten free and celiac too. Sat at the bar and the bartenders were super helpful and kind. The prawns and crab especially hit the spot.

Prajwal Seth

Absolutely delicious food, highly recommend their dal makhani, chana masala, chana saag, roti. Lots of vegan and gluten free options and also lunch special.

Ryan Werdna

I am blown away by how great this place is. One of the best Indian buffets I have had in terms of flavor, variety, quality, and value. Food is delicious, the server Joy was a wonderful person and the place is very cleanly! Chicken is moist and tender, naan is hot and soft, and many dairy and gluten free options. I will be back. FIVE STARS. This place should be packed every day.

Lara Hocheiser

Outstanding Indian cuisine Tons of vegetarian and gluten free options The pakora, dal lentil stew, and clay oven paneer were amazing They brought sauces with the pakora and it was perfectly cooked Highly highly recommend

Lexy Penney

Truly one of the best meals I’ve ever eaten. The food is so fresh, tastes amazing, and cooked to perfection. The Malai Kofta was my absolute favorite. Also, as a gluten free vegetarian there were a TON of options for me which is extremely rare. Not only is the food insanely delicious, but the service and atmosphere is superb as well. As soon as you walk in, it smells amazing and the environment and ambiance is very relaxing. They truly want you to have as enjoyable dining experience as possible and checked on us multiple times to make sure we were enjoying everything. If I didn’t live 3.5 hours away i’d be here at LEAST once a week.

Maddy Boudreau

5 star restaurant hands down! Highly recommend the $15 lunch special every day (not just weekdays). I got the vegan chickpea bowl and my boyfriend got the Chicken Korma, it was so good I highly recommend that one if you are able to eat dairy, highly recommend the butternut squash soup. Servers are very respectful and attentive. Definitely a gem and will return. Vegan and gluten free friendly.

Austin Mateo

Gluten free fried chicken! Very accommodating I loved it as someone who is intolerant.

Libby Lussenhop

We've been semi-regulars and huge fans for more than a year, but I finally had to post a review when I saw the one-stars—are you kidding? This is our go-to spot in the neighborhood for both delivery and dine-in. The food is great, the staff is so kind and friendly, and we always have the best experience. We appreciate a well-labeled menu too as people with dietary restrictions. Everything is labeled for vegetarians, vegans, and those who are gluten-free. There's even vegan/gluten-free naan, and we are obsessed with the piazi. 100% recommend, tip well, support local restaurants!

Devin Schmidt

Wonderful service! Elegant environment and very tasty food. Great options for vegans and a very friendly staff who are helpful in explaining the dishes and their spice level. Would recommend to everyone, especially vegan/gluten free people. A true gem.

Obadiah

This is an excellent restaurant. The service is excellent with everyone friendly and professional. The food is delicious with generous portion sizes. No issues finding gluten-free celiac safe food here.

Bruce Stein

A restaurant with a spectrum of dishes of authentic names but not necessarily fully authentic taste. Anything you order could be made mild to spicy. Good vegan and vegetarian options including gluten free. Excellent goat cheese naan freshly baked and not too greasy

Sam Poyer

Delicious South Indian food made by very nice folks. Lots of options for common dietary considerations (vegan, vegetarian, gluten free). The whole spices and fresh ingredients used in the kitchen lead to incredible flavors, and all the breads are well made. The lunch buffet is awesome. Ask about the student discount!

marianne sagen

This restaurant has become a favorite place to dine for me. Mostly gluten free which is generally a great bonus for me and deliciously spiced. The buffet changes frequently so I never feel bored with my options. Staff is both informative and friendly yet knowledgeable and professional. Value is exceptional. I highly recommend this restaurant for everyone.

AJ Solomon

Great Indian restaurant. Great for gluten-free. Most of the menu is gf

Faith Rodgers

I love this place! I have Celiac disease and accidentally forgot to notify them in time (they made our order so fast!!). When I called he immediately offered to remake it with changed gloves to avoid cross-contamination!! Great food, fantastic service!! Definitely recommend.

Patty Powers

Lots of delicious vegetarian/vegan/gluten-free options. They even have a Beyond Beef kathy roll! During the quarantine I pay online and head over for no-contact pick up.

Lynsey Buckingham

We cannot express how great of an experience our family had at Aahar. They helped us order gluten free foods and a fun mango drink for our 7 and 9 year old children. The food was amazing and the service was wonderful! They were very attentive and the food arrived rather quickly. They also gave us a complementary dessert. We all left full and spent about $15-20 per person.

Andrea Hankey

I cannot say enough about the service, quality and freshness of the food. Everything is made fresh to order, is flavorful and beyond expectations. As someone with a gluten allergy the staff is well versed in allergies and took time to explain it all. Amazing!

Amy Tipton

Delicious and gluten free options! Friendly staff!

Jonah Hurst

We ordered Lamb Vindaloo, Mango Lassi, Aloo Gobi, Okra Masala and Dosa with Masala chutney and it was all excellent. The server was able to accommodate for our gluten allergy

Lulu Bundra

Just to say... BEENZ Indian cuisine is definitely a different cuisine. For those who likes and enjoyed spices in your paladins this is 100 % your place.

The colors are very welcoming ( lighting)the staff top-notch 👌 server Darielys very attended to our table always checking that we all are satisfied with anything we may need for a pleasant dinner.Manager owner  shayla was assured that my dinner was done perfectly ( gluten free 📢 alertfor me) I recommend the stuff mushrooms! Some plates was to spice for my taste. But still a Bababoom place to enjoy with family and friends fir those who likes and enjoyed spices and different flavors on your mouth... this is the place. Give me your opinion after your visit. Sending always positive energy all around. Be all safe and keeping healthy muuuah king size

Brian Becker

Tried their Weds Dinner Buffet. Everything was fresh and there was a good variety of dishes. I appreciate that each dish was labeled, including information for vegan and gluten. Service was attentive. I would have liked a dish or two with a bit more heat (spice, not temperature). It may well have been the best Indian food I've had in the Rochester area. I look forward to going back and ordering some hotter dishes from the menu.

Braden LuBell

Delicious tikka masala crepes, gluten free crepe options better than what I had in France, lots of options, super friendly waitstaff. Love it.
