Reviews for Mausam Indian Curry N Bites in Clifton, NJ
My clients were in the mood for Indian food and ordered from this location. The order was called in and I ordered the... non-vegetarian lunch meal. When I arrived to pick up the food I parked on the street nearby. I walked in and gave my name andpaid. When I ate the meal was very good. It was very filling and my favorite part was the peas because of the flavoring. Ienjoyed the entire meal. Read more
Their food is overpriced. $12 for a little box that they call lunch. Never going back. Plus it?s not like it?s a super high-end... restaurant, there?s not even any air condition. They?re charging a high amount for average quality environment and food. Read more
One of the popular Indian restaurants in the area. They have the best Naans. Do try their Chilli Garlic Naan.
I haven't eaten a whole lot of Indian food in my life, so I don't have many places to compare Mausam to, but I really enjoyed... it. I found this place via Yelp because I was looking for a dinner place near the Clifton AMC, since we were watching John Wick3 afterwards. My BF and I got there at around 6:30 and it was pretty empty. To start, we had the samosa chaat (crispy samosaserved with garbanzo beans and garnished with onions, tomatoes, mint, and tamarind sauce). The filling was still pretty good,even though I don't like peas (which were inside, along with boiled potatoes). I would have preferred the sauce on the sidebecause it was basically a samosa lounging in a jacuzzi of sauce. It no longer made the dough crispy...as you can imagine, itwas quite soggy. At least the sauce was good. For my entree, I had the Chicken Tikka Masala (grilled chicken cooked with tomatoand fenugreek sauce with Indian spices). If you're not big on curry, then go with this dish. The spices aren't too overpowering,and the tomato-based sauce is great over some rice, or dipped with naan (which we got a side of - the garlic one). The chickenwas cooked perfectly - not dry at all. You can get the dishes mild, medium or spicy. I went with mild and it wasn't spicy atall. BF had the biryani with chicken, lamb and paneer in a tikka masala sauce. He ordered it medium since they mentioned mediumwas pretty spicy, but again - not very spicy. Although, the medium does have a kick to it at the end, so I can see how it wouldbecome spicy, the more you eat it. It was my first time trying biryani and I really liked it. However, the lamb was pretty dry,so I would skip this. I really loved the paneer, especially with the tikka masala sauce. Another plus was that the portions arehuge. We had leftovers enough for one more serving. I ate it the next day and it tasted just as good. Tip - check in on Yelpfor a free mango lassi! Read more
Nice decent place to have good Indian food in Clifton area. Mostly used for take out so not much crowd here. But good neat and... clean and comfortable seatings available for casual dining. Food is also great. Read more
I love this place. My boyfriend and I have been here a few times and the food and service is always great. My favorite thing to... get is, of course, the chicken & shrimp tikka masala. But the last time we went, the waiter encouraged us to try the korma andit was phenomenal. It was creamy, mild and little sweet. Ah-mazing. We left full and very happy. I always appreciate it when anestablishment makes the effort to ensure that customers have the best experience. Read more
