Angel

Food is heavily authentic, tasty, spices are really appropriate - fit for desi and Americans. We asked for kid friendly masala food and they really made it to cater. Would totally be back here again. The Briyani is tasty dum, full of kind spices, vegetables and butter. The vegetables could have been cut into smaller pieces and it would be more tasty. The staff are so well behaving, wonderful, friendly and serve with a smile. They even accommodated our special requests and win a 5 star to keep up their great work!!

Angel Indian Restaurant in Jackson Heights absolutely lives up to the hype—and the Michelin-star chef recommendation by Vikas Khanna feels well deserved. From the moment the food hit the table, it was clear this is a place that takes traditional Indian flavors seriously while executing them with precision and heart. Amritsari Lassi The meal started on a high note with the Amritsari lassi—thick, creamy, and perfectly balanced. Not overly sweet, not too tangy, just deeply refreshing and indulgent. It felt authentic, like something you’d get in Punjab, and was the perfect companion to the bold flavors that followed. Samosa Chaat The samosa chaat was a flavor bomb. Crispy samosas broken down and layered with chickpeas, yogurt, chutneys, and spices—sweet, tangy, spicy, and crunchy all at once

One of the best Indian restaurants in NYC. Each dish we had topped the previous ones. We had a great samosa chaat and dahi batata puri. The dahi in the dahi batata puri was perfectly thick too. The lotus kofta and kadhai paneer then came out alongside the amritsari kulcha. Each item was incredibly flavorful. The piece de resistance was the dum biryani. The vegetables were perfectly cooked and felt tender. The service was amazing too! I strongly recommend getting a reservation here as seating is a bit limited.

I was so impressed by this restaurant! The food is delicious and the service is exceptional. There were tons of vegetarian and vegan options which is exactly what I was looking for. I am definitely coming back to this super cute place. I totally recommend!

I had an amazing experience at Angel with my family. The paneer was incredible and imo the best paneer in nyc. The service was also great and they were really accommodating. Our server Prathamesh was super kind and knowledgeable. We also had the amazing experience of meeting the chef and owner himself, Amritpal Singh, who happened to sit down next to us and eat with his family! We had a lovely conversation with him about his experiences and passion for cooking. It was extra special because we were celebrating my dad’s birthday and they really made sure we had the best experience possible and also sang happy birthday and gave us some complimentary kheer. Highly recommend the fresh lime soda, pani puri, samosa chaat, kadai paneer, and paneer kulcha! Will definitely be back soon.
