Absolutely incredible!! The food was top notch and full of amazing flavors. Nothing was overpowering, it was all balanced. Highly recommended. We ordered the Tandoori Chicken, Tikki Masala, and Samosas.

9/21/22 my family an I went to Cardamom Indian Cuisine in Queens. My son-in-law had raved about this place and how good the food was. Liking Indian food I was excited about going. First and foremost we were quickly seated and our server was extremely helpful. Both my daughter and her husband have been there several different times so they knew exactly what to order. The owner came out and spoke with us and he was such a nice gentleman. Overall I saw the service was excellent For starters we got the vegetable Samosa they definitely did not disappoint it was a crispy turnover that was stuffed with potatoes and green peas the flavor was outstanding and the sauces to go with it were absolutely marvelous. Next we added the spicy lamb dish of Nilgiri Korma this dish absolutely just melted in my mouth the fresh ground met the coriander leaves in the coconut to finish it off was just one of the best dishes I’ve ever had. And Indian food. Next kind of butter chicken which is my daughters favorite dish it had yummy cubes of chicken and it was cooked in a creamy sauce I think tomatoes and yogurt gravy oh my goodness it was just lovely. Another dish with the Vandeloo spicy ham oh it had curry and rice coconut finish we got every one of these in spicy because we love the hot spices. She cut me a meal we got the garlic naan bread with cilantro and then again we got one of my daughters favorites which was the tomato rice basmati rice was flavored very well and was also excellent. If I could give Michelin ratings this would be one that I would write about and give stars to. I know Main‘s to we finish all of this meal. So of course we took home leftovers for later. And I said a touch the meal was a wonderful little ice cream dessert with that little round cake tasted like it had been soaked in honey. Which only complemented the mail more. Thank you for a Memorable meal and excellent service.

Definitely try their nun, it is really well made. Their spicy fish was well made too, great distinct taste of all the spices. Their biryani could have been better! Service was really good and the owner of the restaurant was very tactful towards customers.

One of the best indian restaurants in queens. I love the taste of the foods. The cheese naan was good but I expected more cheese inside the naan. The quality of the Basmati rice is awesome compare to other Indian restaurants. Lamb karai was so good and tasty. I want to talk about the quality of the service and it was so good, the lady waiter was so concerned about us and the service was so nice. Definitely I’m gonna come back with my friends.

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.

I tried Cardamom because it is on the Michelin Bib Gourmand list for NYC. It's good, but not great. It's only marginally better than food in Jackson Heights, such as Jackson Diner or Angel --- and both of the aforementioned places are about 1/2 the cost of Cardamom. Didn't try the cuisine from Goa, so I would come back to try that since it's so niche, but we got tikka masala, garlic naan, onion kulcha, chicken 65, and alcohol --- the bill was almost $90 including tip. The service is friendly, attentive, and polite.

NVM just got food poisoning after my meal — Very good. Wish the malai kofta had more than 4 dumplings. The entrees are a little pricey ($20+ per dish) but the service was excellent. I love that you can add tofu to any curry.

Good place. Fairly consistent. This is my major complaint. When ordering anything ANYTHING with broccoli they don’t stop cutting at the point of woody stalks. I cannot count the times that I have had to spit out what feels like a piece of a 2x4 in my mouth and throat. For heavens sake I’m all for using up food, but when it’s all the time you’re sacrificing my health as I have gagged on this and its splinters! It’s horrible to have this happen every time we order vegetable Korma, and we order this A LOT!!! I’d make it 4 stars but once again, I had to spit this out. When your dinner is a minefield who needs it? PLEASE if you can’t cut it, don’t use it. 7/29 update - again we tried and AGAIN I sat there spitting out multiple pieces of Inedible petrified broccoli because they’re so cheap they use the worst pieces. Done.
