Reviews for Monsun Fine Indian Cuisine in River Edge, NJ

(updated review) I had the tiffin lunch box here apparently more than 5 months ago and the food was not bad but not great... either. In the past I have enjoyed their lunch buffet (pre pandemic), but I feel that the quality has gone down a bit. Sincethe owner of restaurant refutes my review, I will try this place again in the near future and post another review aftercomparing it to other places in the area. Read more

Amazing food, beautiful decor. Me and my wife will be back again!

The restaurant needs to remove the sign that shows they serve buffet. I think it is overpriced & expensive for indian food.

Take out review: Update: Aug 12, 2021 After my first review, I continued ordering from Monsun every other week. Over the time... I discovered many outrageously tasty dishes like the Samosa Chaat, Nawabi Chicken Korma, Shrimp tikka masala. The Korma requiresa special mention, probably the best tasting Korma that I can remember. Its so creamy and sweet, and the chicken almost melts inthe mouth. I don’t find much bones in the Goat Biryani anymore either. Monsun has become one of my staple food places for takeouts while working from home. Original Review: I ordered a Goat dum Biryani and a chicken kati roll for lunch on a weekday viaone of the delivery apps. The ordered was prepared and dispatched pretty fast, and arrived 20 minutes before the ETA. So thatwas impressive!! I really liked the chicken kati roll. It had huge pieces of chicken and a nice blend of spices and sauce. Thewrap was also soft and holding all the ingredients properly. I wasn’t fond of the goat Biryani as much. It was very spicy forme even though I requested mild. So, their regular spice level might have been beyond my tolerance. The Biryani also had a lotof small pieces of bones, which made it annoying to eat the rice. But the quality of the goat was really good, I just wish theyhad removed most of the bones. Despite the goat Biryani setback, I’ll consider ordering from them again, since that deliveryapp doesn’t have much Indian options near me. Read more

First timer here .. food was good but not extra ordinary . One advantage of buffet is you get more, but one disadvantage is -... it’s not fresh . I would have preferred ala carte but they didn’t have it. I had veggie only and it was a ok spread. Myfriend ms had meat and it was tasting good according to them. My review is for vegetarians :) Spinach paneer, and veg manchuballs were good. Veg curry was average . Rice was very dry and so was naan .. gulag jamun and kheeer was good .. good service.. overall an average experience Read more

Wonderful ambience, very warm and welcoming staff.. not to forget a decent spread of menu with veg and non veg tasty food. the... dessert.. The gulab jamoon was the best I had since India. The veg curries were just awesome. The staff was also nice and theIndian music they were playing was good too. Read more

Warm decor with Indian rain forest and flora and fauna motifs throughout the restaurant which evokes the monsoon season in... India. Food was good and the service has improved dramatically since my last visit. Read more

It was fabulous ambience, ample spacious and amazing food. Even the reception and service is so good and homely. Normally if we... say indian restaurant, every food item would be greasy. But here, it is very good. Buffet is just $14.99. It has variety ofoptions. Chicken tandoori, Lamb curry, Goat biryani were excellent. My kid also enjoyed a lot. If anyone looking for great foodat Indian restaurant with spacious and good ambience It is Monsun. Read more
