“ I’m a NYC cop who’s favorite lunch time spot is Manhattan Indian Flavor. It’s a good, old-fashioned, family restaurant. The owners are one of the most warm, friendly, and inviting people you will ever have the pleasure of meeting.They always check to make sure our food is to our liking, at just the right amount of times. The food is tasteful and reasonably priced. The atmosphere is nice. Tables and bathrooms are clean. I recommend if you have not already stopped by for lunch or dinner, do so. They close for a short time at 3pm to clean, then reopen a hour or so later. ”
“ Amazing indian food and incredible service! Highly recommend! My family and I are big fans and will be coming back for more. ”
“ Food, atmosphere, and service were excellent. Visiting from out of town. A local walked in to use the restroom and was rightfully denied. He then posted a fake review of all 1s earlier tonight. Ignore that review. This place was very good. ”
“ Wow. This place is really amazing. The staff so nice and service was great. Our food was amazing. We got the chicken tikka masala, onion naan, and pakora. Delicious!!!! I can reiterate enough how nice the staff was to us. He was so friendly and made our meal very enjoyable. Thanks! ”
“ I’m so addicted to this place. We order from here at least 2x a week. Their lamb kebabs, tandoori chicken, fish curry - well, basically everything- is so delicious such a lowkey gem. Don’t sleep on this spot!! ”
“ I ate here recently with my mother. It’s a charming restaurant on the corner of 18th street and 2nd Avenue. The food was delicious. My Lamb Saag was the perfect level of medium spicy that I requested. My mother loved her dish of mild buttered chicken. The Somosa was delicious and the spicy food was cooled by the Mango Lhassi. Of you’re in this neighborhood and looking for a delicious and reasonably priced restaurant I’d recommend eating here. ”
“ Great Indian restaurant! Usually I don't order the vindaloo because it's too spicy, but here it was just perfectly spicy. The saag paneer was really good and so was the chicken tikka masala. Very recommended! ”
