We had an amazing experience at Kathiyawadi Village! The food was absolutely delicious — we ordered thalis and loved every bit of it. The flavors were authentic and satisfying. Highly recommend this place if you’re craving real Indian home-style food!
The restaurant was lovely, I am Ecuadorian and my fiance took me to try Gujarat traditional food since he is originally from there and it was a bit different for what I tried before with Indian food, the food was vegetarian and very good, colorful and I thought that wI'll not get full but I did hehe. The service was on point and I definitely recommend! We even try Gujarat traditional Attire! Enjoy!
Clean atmosphere Service was just enough friendly and just enough professional for us to enjoy the meal and feel like we were being served. Food - had the kathyawadi thali - spectacular hot hot food Undhiyu with hot hot roti — was finger licking. Most importantly- I casually asked for name of one of the dishes and before I knew it the cook from the kitchen that made it today came with a smiling face to chat briefly and to share with me how it’s made. I will be sending many of my friends and family here for sure
I recently dined at Kathiyawadi Village with my Family and was thoroughly impressed! The authentic Kathiyawadi food was absolutely delicious, bursting with flavor and made with fresh ingredients. The ambience was warm and inviting, perfect for a relaxing meal. A special shout-out to Amit Bhai the Owners and Deep and Suresh Patel for their phenomenal service & Hospitality. They were attentive, friendly, and made our dining experience truly memorable. I highly recommend Kathiyawadi Kitchen to anyone looking for a taste of genuine Kathiyawadi cuisine. I can’t wait to return!
It was Superrrr...........experience visiting *KATHIWADI VILLAGE* Restaurant at New Jursey. We couldn’t believe that we got all *JAIN FOOD* exactly same taste as we get in any Kathiwadi restaurant in India as they brought Indian cook specially dedicated for this restaurant only. We had Surti Sev Khamni, Naylon Khaman, Lilva Katchori & Mix Bhajiya with Green & Red Chatni. In sweets we had Puran poli, Shreekhand, Gulab Jamun & Churma Ladoo. Then in Main course we also had Fulka Roti with Sev Tameta, Kaju karela, Chana sabji & Dahi Kadhi with Superrrr...........Khichdi also. And on top of that we were also served by Desi Chass also. I can just say it's place we should go specially from New York also who stay in NY. And specially for visitors who has been out of Indian desifood from few days also must visit even u guys have to drive for 1.30 hour. If u r coming in a tour, then tell ur tour company to add this place.

If you’re craving authentic Kathiyawadi food that feels like a warm embrace from home, this hidden gem is a must-visit. The unpretentious location belies the exceptional food that instantly feels like home and transports you back to your childhood. Every dish, from the unlimited Kathiyawadi thali to the Kaju Karela curry (a surprising and delectable twist on classic bitter gourd), tastes freshly made with love and care. The chaas (buttermilk) is a perfect complement to the spices. Exceptional service from the owners (we were hosted by Chintan Soni) further enhances the experience. Despite its small size, the flavors here are unforgettable—ideal for those seeking a taste of authentic, comforting Kathiyawadi cuisine.
My sister and I brought our grandmother to this restaurant to have traditional Gujarati food together. The hospitality as soon as we walked in had us impressed and we felt like we were at home. Both the food and the vibes were incredible. We were greeted by Chintan, who told us his mom prepares the food herself. We also were greeted by Deep and Suresh bhai, who made us feel very welcome and checked on us to see if we needed anything else. I highly recommend going to this restaurant for an incredible home prepared meal ran by the kindest people.

From the moment you step in, the rustic decor and traditional ambiance transport you to a serene village setting, making it an escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. The menu is thoughtfully curated, showcasing a variety of dishes that capture the essence of Kathiwada's rich culinary heritage. Every dish we tried was bursting with flavor and prepared with evident care. The use of fresh, locally sourced ingredients truly stood out. The staff especially Mr. Chintan was friendly and attentive, ensuring our dining experience was seamless and memorable. Their knowledge of the menu and recommendations made it even more enjoyable.
