For starters, the service was outstanding. Was seated as soon as I came in. Drinks and menus were brought promptly. Never went more than 30 seconds with an empty glass. The food was amazing. Best I’ve had in a long time. Tried the garlic nan, chicken curry, and grilled vegetables. All were superb, and unmatched by other places I have tried. Will absolutely be back quite frequently.

Delicious food and good service. The interior is very nice. The best part is their Sunday buffet special, I only wish there was all you can eat naan

Recently revisited they have expanded the restaurant very nice cozy place. If your interested in having your taste buds awaken taste of India is a fun place to try out. Don’t be worried about not knowing what to order the staff will help you out. The food is very tasty I will definitely be revisiting again. And the kids even enjoyed the food

One of the best Indian food my fiancé have had in the NY metro area. Worth the trip from Brooklyn.

First off, I love the décor because its unlike any other restaurant in Staten Island. The food is pretty good but I wouldn’t say its amazing. The naan bread is good and I’ve also had the Chicken tandoori before. The chicken was quite bland and could’ve been a little more tender but overall, I quite like Taste of India and would go back.

This is hands down my favorite Indian restaurant. The lamb chops, and garlic naan are my favorites, along with a Pomtini. A close second is their Bhaingin Bharta eggplant dish, which is perfectly spiced. The basmati rice is very flavorful.

Service and décor was a solid 5 out of 5. Food was decent. I ordered the American staple chicken tikka masala and some samosas. Also ordered the nan. That was enough to get me super full. And I can eat quite a bit. Portion look small but they fill you up quickly. Spiced iced tea is different. Sure it’s great with an acquired taste. Mango lasse was spot on awesome. Food could have been a tad spicier but I think they are serving to a more Americanized customer than traditional Asian. Was definitely good to come back for when I get a craving. It seems they are doing everything possible to give the customer a very positive experience. I think this place would flourish in Edison or Somerset.

Worth checking this place out. Has great Indian food and has won a few island rewards. also do a great takeout menu. All sorts of Indian cuisine for all kinds of tastes. Had a few of the items and wasn’t disappointed. Looking to go back again.

Overall a great experience, service a little slow but we had the time to relax, examine the menu and relax(that was the idea) I was very satisfied with the appetizers, we had a basket of Nan, garlickey mushrooms and the meat samosa, good enough to open up our desire for Indian food. Everyone in my table was pretty much pleased with their plates as for me I had the Shrimp Biryani, I was happily surprised with the amount of shrimp found in this plate… It was great because it was a combination of spices and sweet but I have to say that the mild version it was still too spicy for me, I added white rice and gave it the balance I was looking for… I also added the sweet and sour sauce they serve when you arrive to the rice and made it even better… Good place, good service but they should be a little more cautious with their Mild versions of their plates.

Over ten years ago, when I was 19, I traveled through India for a long long time. When I came back to Staten Island I craved Indian food. I tried many places in other boroughs. I admit I didn’t think an authentic Indian place could exist so close to where I live but Taste of India is it. I eat here almost once a week since returning from India, and I am now 32! Never have the dishes disappointed, just the most delicious possible. It’s just the perfect place and I am grateful it exists on Staten Island.

The most delicious Indian food on the island,(especially the chicken makhni!!), that I’ve had yet. Nicely decorated inside, with great service.

I absolutely love this restaurant’s food. I have never patronized them in store, but I order from them a great deal. Food is always good. I have strayed from my usual to order other things that sound tasty and to my surprise found them tasty but with way too much salt. I’ll steer clear of these offerings. The chicken vindaloo and tikki massala are my favorites. Oh my goodness it’s delicious. I have one tiny thing that bothers me about this restaurant and that is you have to state more than once how your order should arrive. $ 30 min + gas + tax and tip. With that said, If I want you to break up two separate orders, be prepared to do that. Don’t assume anything. An order is an order.

SOLID, reliable Indian food. We have been coming here for years and it is just as good as ever. We now live a bit further away near the ferry and we love that they deliver to us, and is always within the timeframe that they estimate. They are so accommodating, will make basically any dish that you ask for… I especially love the papri chaat, which is not on the menu but is a DELICIOUS app. And as I mentioned in my previous review, the taste of india chicken is no longer on the menu but they will make it! Service is always warm and friendly when you eat in. Glad to have such a great go-to Indian spot.

The food is okay, but VERY expensive for what you’re getting. I live literally 1.3 miles away, and they refused to deliver to me unless I hit a $ 30 minimum, and they don’t seem to care when you tell them to cancel the order because of it. The rice is pretty good, and the reg nann bread is good too. Update: So I decided to give in and order because I was craving Korma. I decided to order online, I put $ 30 worth of food in my cart, and then hit checkout, they charged me an extra $ 2 for delivery! This place is seriously greedy and absurdly brazen!

Parking — Hard to tell but there are reserved spots right behind the restaurant Interior — Nice dinner lounge feel. Surrounded by peacock feathers for table flowers and miniature elephants on the side Garlic Nan — It’s true what they say. This was so good I forgot to take a picture lol This should always be added to your meal! Chicken Mango — Sauce is great and sweet. The combo of vegetables, mango slices and chicken are a great mix. Chicken was tender as well. Get this for a sweet go to dish. Staff — Professional not too pushy Recommend! Love the décor and sauce

This establishment did not meet my expectations given the high ratings. The atmosphere was nicely decorated and comfy setting. We started off with the garlicky mushrooms, and to be honest the appetizer did not leave a good impression. We thought our main course will cover up for the loss. The chicken lacked moisture as it was clearly over cooked, leaving it super hard, dry and rubbery. Impossible for us to chow down. The lamb was on a more edible side. Heck, I didn’t even enjoy their basmati rice. We did enjoy the garlicky naan bread… But we didn’t finish this either. We hate to waste food, but we didn’t even want to bother bringing the 60% leftovers home. 2 stars for OK service and keeping our water glasses filled. The canned juice was just way too sweet to wash the dryness down.(I know, I am spoiled by the city’s fresh juices everywhere I roam.) I don’t think I’ve ever had to drink as much water during a dinner.

Really wanted to like this place. Ordered«garlickey» mushrooms for an appetizer which was delicious. Unfortunately, the main course chicken tikka masala was extremely hard. Sauce was good but actually meat over very overlooked and rubbery. Left most of the chicken on the plate which I never do.

They updated their look drastically, NYC type of restaurant ambiance. The price reflects on the new change. However, the food is on par with the new look. It’s tasty, fresh and delicious. It’s the only Indian restaurant in the Island that has great competition with other indian restaurant in NYC&NJ. The vegetarians dishes are refreshing and not greasy, aloo mutter etc. The meat dishes, chicken kebab, are fresh and very tasty are one of few sample dishes we’ve eaten there. They’re drinks are remarkable and refreshing. The service is great and quick. They’re constantly refilling our glass, cleaning our table and attentive to our needs. No regrets dining here. Food is costly, where you’re getting quality food.

We came to this place 11 years ago when we first moved to the island, we loved it, they had a tasting menu for two back then. This was even before the renovated the place. The place looks amazing and the food is fantastic. The tasting menu for two is no longer offered. Raj, one of the owners is the nicest guy I know. Great for special occasions, dates, lunch or whenever you’re hungry for excellent Indian food!
