Tower of India Restaurant — Restaurant in Sayreville

If there was a ZERO star I will given them That. This is the worst Indian place I have ever been in my life. First of all, I love Indian food and have many friends that are Indian and go with them to eat delicious Indian food. When I first walked in we sat ourselves. Then it took 20 minutes for the guy to get off his phone so we can order, so rude. If I was by myself I would have walked out however I had family with me and I just wanted to have a good time. So we finally ordered some tandory chicken and lamb Cury , rice , and some bread. The order took a little longer than usual to be brought to our table but I though that good greasy hot food , yummy !! Well that's what I though !!!! First the short guy waiter brought the chicken first !??!? I though what and idiot , usally at any restaurant the bread and salads come first , but what ever. The chicken was cold and bloody !!! I was like what !?!???! He put the rest of the food and ran !!! We tried to call him he didn't answer!!!!??! He left us for 30 minutes without coming to check on us !!! I was calling , hey , Yo !!! Any body home !!! No body came out !!!! I was about to leave the store !!! He then decided to show up !! No hi ! No how is the food nor nothing!!!!! What a nasty nasty nasty place !!!!! Nasty nasty nasty !!! I will never step a food on that dirty place every in my life !!!! I went home I had a stomach ache!!!! And I felt gross !!!!!!!! If I had went to the hospital and they told me that it was food poisoning I would sue you...

This place "left a bad taste in my mouth". Pun intended.

I would give zero stars if I could.

My wife and I went there to celebrate my birthday. I do admit that I settled on this place because most restaurants were very busy and the wait was long, plus I wanted her to try Indian food.

Any way, we entered the restaurant at around 8:25pm on a Saturday night and 3 tables were occupied in the fairly small restaurant. Two tables had large parties (maybe 8 people each), and the other table had 4 people in that party.

The restaurant worker came up to us and said, "how can I help", and we responded by asking for a table for 2.

He quickly replied with what seemed like a 'not so welcoming attitude', "take out only, we're closing at 9:30", as he continued shuffling papers at the front desk.

We felt like we weren't welcomed there. I've never seen a restaurant turn away guests because they have a little more than an hour before closing.

This place is horrible when it comes to customer service. It seems as though only "certain people" are welcome there.

I obviously would not recommend...

Ordered simple paneer bhurji and 2 naan. We asked for spicy level to be high.

Order came and to my surprise quantity of rice and curry was very less. When I pointed out to the lady, she mentioned this is what they generally serve and it is correct portion. I guess may be she has not eaten out in any other restaurant.

Paneer bhurji was extremely spicy. Chef put extra red chili powder. There was no gravy it was plain grated paneer, haldi and extra red chili powder. There was no other vegetable or any sort of gravy.

We finished out dinner in straight 10 mins. Didnt eat half of the curry n bread. Just took rice to go. When I pointed out to other person, he mentioned tht next time they will make with paes and other veggies. I am sorry bt after ruining my dinner why would i come back again.

I feel somehow Indian restaurant are focussed more on profits and less on quality or customer service.

Pls fire the chef if u think spicy is just adding red...
