Enjoyed the Mirchi Jhinga Tandoori, which was excellent. The Chicken Tikka was tasty, while the Chicken Hakka Noodles and Garlic Fried Rice were just fine. Overall, it was a decent meal and a nice experience.The portions here were good.
One thing that was a bit disappointing, though, was that we had a 2-year-old with us and found out there was no kids’ menu available—the same menu is expected for children too, which was quite surprising. Having some kid-friendly options would make the dining experience even better for families.

I didn't know Amiya existed until I came here for a "meet the boss" dinner--yes, some bosses still do that (*cough* Gen Xers *cough*). Said boss was also Indian, as was his wife, so I figured they knew what they were picking.
While they seemed to like the food a lot, I had a more mixed experience.
- Samosa Chaat: This was tasty but small.
- Vegetarian Sampler Platter: Not sure if something was lost in translation, but we received two plates of these, though the plates didn't have some of the same items. Best of the bunch was the samosa and bhajia. Though is saddens me that. Veg Platter features only fried items--surely more could've been done?
- Korma: Not as creamy as I would've liked.
- Til Wale Aloo Gobhi: Not spicy enough, well...at all. I'm used to my Aloo Gobi packed with mustard seeds and other bursts of flavor that make my tongue tipsy. Amiya kinda played it safe here.
- Garlic Naan: Fine but not garlicky enough.
- Mango Kulfi: Generous portion but already fairly melted when served.
- Ras Malai: The paneer was a bit hard in that not-yet-thawed kind of way, and the cream needed wayyyy more cardamom. But I'm a cardamom fiend, so there's never enough cardamom for me.
Can't say much for service as boss' wife did most of the ordering in Hindi. I'll give them props for making an attempt at nice decor, though the dark and dank look with weirdly colored string lights isn't really my style. There was also a TV tray filled with plastic drinking bags of brightly colored liquor at the entrances that never went away--no idea what that was about.
Oh and they do validate parking, if that matters.

Amiya was absolutely fantastic!!! Their spinach chicken and garlic naan bread are my favorites. It’s extremely flavorful and the chicken is super juicy. The staff is amazing, attentive, and so very kind! They really knew their stuff because all their recommendations were spot on! The margaritas were a hit!! We had guava, passionfruit, and even got to try a green apple one that was great (hopefully they add it to the menu)! We also got to try this key lime shot and it was SO GOOD! I’ve never tasted anything like it. As you can tell I can’t say enough good things about this place. Try it you won’t be disappointed!

Amiya in Jersey City offers a delightful dining experience with a warm and inviting ambience.
The service was attentive and made the meal even more enjoyable. Their fresh, fluffy bread stood out—simply exceptional. Curries and dal were flavorful and well-balanced. Don’t miss the pistachio kulfi—rich, creamy, and unforgettable.
Overall, a great spot for quality Indian cuisine and a relaxed evening.

Tried this place finally after adding this to my list long ago, and it didn't disappoint at all.
I had a Mango Rita martini for my cocktail, which was very right blended.
For appetizers, we had - palak chaat and chicken seekh kababs. Both were absolutely right in taste.
For the main course, we ordered Chicken Chettinad- again right on point, no complaints..
Highly recommend!!

We went to Amiya for a birthday lunch that a family member had organised. Therefore, can't really comment on the prices.
However, the food was very good. Had the lemonade and watermelon cucumber refresher, both really tasty, the latter on the sweeter side. In appetizers we had their dahi papdi chaat, hara bhara kebab, and ajwaini fish tikka. The fish was the best; perfectly cooked and very flavourful. Main course included dal makhani, kadhai paneer and chicken tikka masala, with an assortment of breads. We finally ended our meal with gulab jamun and rasmalai.
The servers were very friendly and paid good attention to our party.
There were a few delays where we had to wait for a while for the breads. This led to the rest of the food getting cold. I understand that for a big party like ours, some delays were expected, so not putting anything against the restaurant or the servers.
Overall, would recommend Amiya to anyone looking for some good Indian food in the area.

Good food, good veggie options, reasonable ish price. Portions are a good size, could serve two if you are regular size eaters. Food was tasty but sure to confirm the heat (spice) level when ordering.
I think the service could have been more engaging, especially as they were not so busy on Wednesday evening.
Atmosphere was ok, but I am sure its more lively on busier days...

We got egg Hakka noodles and Goan Chicken with side of rice. We told them to make the food at a spice level of 7/10 for Hakka noodles and extra spicy for Goan Chicken. Our food was NOT spicy at all to the point of being bland. Not exactly authentic Indian food but, the vibe of the restaurant and the service itself was great! We got outdoor seating in the evening and it was a pleasant atmosphere.

Very disappointing experience.
I ordered biryani and found multiple strands of hair in the food. When I raised the issue, the team not only denied any responsibility but also refused to acknowledge the problem. This reflects extremely poor hygiene standards and an unacceptable level of customer service. I expected better
both in terms of food quality and basic professionalism.
