"I come to Bhojan when I can even though I don't live in New York. In general, the appetizers/small plates are better than what most people know as the more traditional Indian restaurant entrees. Try the Pau Bhaji, Kachori Chaat and Gobi Karkare for sure. If you're in the mood for something more substantial, try a paratha. I ate here on a Friday night, and my wife, who ate here recently on a Wednesday night said the food was def a bit better then. Maybe it's the Fri night rush, or maybe it was a bit of an off day. Nonetheless, the food was tasty enough that I'd recommend it to friends."

"Picked this out of a concentrated area of vegetarian Indian options on Lex Av based on others' ratings and the extensive menu. We were not disappointed. Food was great, portions were generous and the customer service could not have been nicer. Great place!"

"I found Bhojan in New York magazine under the vegetarian section because of a friend of mine is a veggie-only person. This place was so good, i brought my husband back who happens to be a meat and potatoes kinda guy and he loved it. he was amazed at how full you get from only veggies and rice! I recently went to Bhojan for my friend's baby shower and there were 8 of us and the staff was awesome. they let us stay even long after we finished the food. I'd do back to this place again and again."

"Food is interesting and spicy! I expected bold and spicy flavors but in the vegan Thali dish that includes appetizer, entree, and dessert almost every part of it was spicy. There was no escaping it except for the rice and dessert! We were all sweating from the heat of the restaurant and the heat from the food. It was new and interesting so we enjoyed trying something new but next time I think we might try a different Indian restaurant (considering there are probably 3 or 4 more in a 1-block radius of this place) and see what they are like. Oh and their drink menu is slightly lacking. But all in all we had a good time and enjoyed trying northwestern Indian food. The atmosphere was also nice."

"Delicious and reasonably-priced vegetarian thali takes the fuss out of ordering lunch. We asked for a quiet table for a business lunch and the staff did their best to accommodate us, given that the room is not inherently quiet. All was well until a group of women with babies (one of them howling) was seated next to us, but we were just about ready to leave by then, so no harm was done. I've had family dinners on previous occasions at Bhojan. The food has been excellent and the service attentive, and on those occasions noise was not an issue."

"My friend and I went to Bhojan on a Saturday night at 6:45 p.m. with a reservation. It was nearly empty when we walked in and 100% packed when we left around 8 or 8:30 p.m. The service was impeccable and the food was delicious. I'm vegan and they had a great assortment of choices. I also don't eat flour or sugar and the wait staff deftly helped me navigate the menu. The ambiance was calming and unusual. The interior is smaller than it looks in the pictures online; it's quite cozy. I highly recommend it!"

"The food was very good and came out quickly for lunch. The Tali was delicious and the cauliflour was really great. The two issues I had was on my reservation I requested a larger table for two and I had gotten one of the smaller tables and the place was empty. The other was one of the items I ordered did not arrive at the table and I think it was a language difference, but the food that came out was plenty and delicious. I would definitely go again and recommend it."

"I went to Bhojan with my best friend after purchasing a groupon. We had recently become vegetarians and also shared a love of Indian food, so we decided to give it a try. We LOVED it. The food was incredibly filling and satisfying and we enjoyed the ambience immensely. I would also like to note that the service was incredible even though we only had a groupon. (I've noticed some places lack in service when serving groupon patrons)"
