Curry On in Jersey City

Newark avenue in Jersey City has many Indian restaurants and so, we like sometimes to try new ones, although I admit that I have my favorite: Rasoi. So, this time, we decided to go to Curry On as someone at work recommended it. As you enter, you feel like you are in a different place with the decor and lighting that makes you wonder if they throw parties at night. Menu wise, they have the classics, with nothing really standing out. We started with samosa chaat that is made with samosa, potato and crispy puffs, smothered in yogurt and tamarind sauce. Packed with flavor, crispy bits from the samosa, I love the sweet and savory taste of that dish. For our main, Jodi went for the paneer tikka masala while I went for the lamb korma. Both dishes were good, but not exceptional and the oil breaking from the sauce made it a bit greasy. They served it with a generous amount of rice and we ordered a delicious butter naan that was nicely charred and fluffy. As usual, I had a mango lassi to go with my meal and we finished with gulab jamun that were well made.

Overall, Curry On was good, but definitely not at the level of Rasoi, that so far, remains my all time favorite.

Enjoy (I still did)!
