Cardamom Indian Cuisine

First time here on Mother's Day, was referred by a friend. My husband is not a person on trying other culture foods. The waiter lady was patient with him by explaining what they have the taste. She also said we could bring our own drinks. My husband got, dish called: (CHICKEN TIKKA) $17 w/ 1 lemon rice $6 Garlic Naan $3. Also, she remembers what children usually order for my children to try: (BUTTER CHICKEN MILD comes w/white rice green peas on top) $17. I likeanything, so I told her to give me their popular dish: (Spicy Lambseekh Kabab) $19 with a side of salad called: Saag Paneer MILD $15 which my whole family loved.

Cardamom is only just ok, its not amazing by any stretch. It should be better fare given its proximity to the excellent Indian restaurants in Jackson Heights. Too bad.

Had the 42. Tikka Masala and the 43. Korma been $15 and $16 respectively I would have said they were a good value but since they are $25 and $26 dishes I expect more in terms of quality.

If youre reading this review because youre on the fence about ordering, then this is your sign to go for it. The absolute BEST Paneer Tikka Masala Ive ever had. The perfect amount of spice and flavor. Long after Ive finished my meal, maybe even days later, Im still thinking about how delicious it was. Ive ordered from here a few times and every time was amazing. This is my favorite place in Queens. Maybe even all of New York City. Stop reading and order now. You owe it to yourself to get the best.

First time having this since they changed ownership. Same chef. After walking around a while it was the place I felt the best for outdoor seating on a really cold night. Mostly closed but open enough to be ventilated. The food was delish! Service was great. Bill was cheap because BYOB.

Best nun breads. After the change of ownership, this place really kicked up the flavor. But they can get some better quality meat. Good service as well.
