I had a fantastic dining experience at Gazab Indian Restaurant and was impressed from the moment the food arrived. The presentation of the pani puri was outstanding — creative, fun, and definitely a highlight that adds to the overall dining experience. It’s clear that a lot of thought goes into not just the flavor, but also the visual appeal of each dish. The ghosht was exceptionally good — tender, rich, and full of deep, layered spices that really stood out. You can tell the meat was slow-cooked to perfection. The dum biryani was another highlight, served with great aroma and authenticity, with each grain of rice perfectly cooked and full of flavor. It tasted just like a traditional biryani should, with the right balance of spices and perfectly cooked meat. To end the meal, I tried the gulab jamun, which was served hot and incredibly satisfying — soft, warm, and soaked in just the right amount of syrup. It was the perfect sweet finish. The ambience is cozy and welcoming, making it a comfortable place to enjoy a relaxed meal. Service was attentive without being intrusive, and the staff were happy to explain the dishes and make recommendations. Overall, Gazab offers a great combination of authentic flavors, excellent presentation, and a comfortable dining atmosphere. A wonderful spot for anyone craving well-executed Indian cuisine.

Dishes were pretty good with nice presentation, but I think I had too high of an expectation because of the raving reviews. I enjoyed my meal, but I have definitely had better Indian food within a 1 mile radius. Our dishes were also not spicy at all, which was a slight disappointment.

One of my favorite neighborhood spots in the Lower East Side. The atmosphere is unique, and the staff are exceptionally kind and attentive, making every visit a pleasure. I’ve been here several times, and each meal has consistently impressed me. On my latest visit, I brought my family along, and they all raved about the meal. The lemon chicken, goat, and dal are standout dishes. Each one is bursting with bold, inventive flavors. Every bite is packed with flavor, making the meal memorable from start to finish. ✨ If you want a spot that combines fun vibes, delicious food, and top-notch service, this place won’t let you down.

The host provided superior service, with no waiting time and a highly attentive demeanor. They responded to all our inquiries promptly. The culinary offerings were exceptional. We had no dissatisfaction whatsoever. Everything met our expectations. The paneer and garlic naan was certainly one of my favorite dishes there.
