Aangan Indian Cuisine

I don’t know who is making this Indian food but it’s far from Good quality Indian food. Extremely disappointed. Ordered chili paneer… it was nothing like what I have had in past. They just made a chili sauce with added raw veggies and chunks of paneer. Usually it’s fried with lots of flavor and crispy. Baingan salan was very flavorless, watery and oily. Extremely oily. By far the worst Indian food I have ever had and I eat a lot of Indian food since my boyfriend is Indian, we eat a lot of Indian food. Unfortunately I couldn’t even eat this at all.

It's been ~6 years since my quest to find good Indian food in the city started; a search that would (temporarily) cure the acute pangs for genuine flavour that the desi in me suffers from. Angaan is the closest that I have come so far and I have tried most of the top rated restaurants across the boroughs. The service is slow but for good reasons. The fact that it was time for desserts before my brain dinged to click a photo is testament to their quality. (We ordered the Malai kebab for appetizers, the tandoori shrimp and lamb pakku ⭐ as entrees and gulab jamun for dessert) The only reason they get 4-stars is because I am still hopeful I'll find THE one 😉

Usually order from this place and have a good experience, but I ordered for pickup today and found this when I got home. There was mold on the gajar halwa. So awful. How can I trust that the rest of my food was handled properly?? Had to dispose of the rest of my order. Also their takeout special has gotten considerably smaller and is still $18. This place is simply not worth it anymore.

This is literally the best Indian cuisine I’ve ever had in nyc. As someone who is Bengali and frequents Jackson heights, I’m really impressed by all the amazing flavors available here. I’m obsessed with the chicken tikka masala and garlic naan goes so well with it. They also have the best mango lassi I’ve ever had, they’ve nailed the thickness of it perfectly.
