I love coming here! The Indian dishes are always flavorful and there’s a good variety. It seems to be owned by a family and they’re always very welcoming and conversational. The restaurant has a patio outside that should be opening up soon. I will definitely be coming back to hang out and have a drink/dinner.

I placed an order online for pick up. We went inside the place was really nice. They had dining area and bar plus a back room with a pool table and music. It looks like a fun place to go for a night out.i got chicken fingers and fries for my kids and they were some of the best chicken fingers I’ve had in a while… perfectly cooked the fries were perfectly cooked and seasoned. I was blown away. We ordered a fusion burger that was absolutely delicious. Their Indian style chicken wings were breaded and crispy and the hot sauce on them was delicious. They were also very big and they give you a lot. We also ordered a stir fry rice and pasta dish that was very good. Samosas were crispy and spicy and the sauces that came with them were delicious. And Finally their naan bread was Soo good I wish I had ordered more. I would definitely eat here again and recommend it to anyone looking for Indian food and even just bar food

If I could give a – star rating I would. When a group if my friends and I went it was a slow night on a Sunday. The server/bartender was extremely rude. Told us we werent allowed to have any American food as there was not an American cook. However later he served burgers to people at the bar. He was very unattentive. We had to keep going to him to fill our drinks. Food was brought out randomly. One of my friends ( whose Indian) was brought his food and tasted it right away and it was cold. He asked for food to be heated and the server scoled him and told him he didnt eat it when it was served. Very poor service, food wasnt much better. Will not be back.

If you want authentic Indian food and the best Naan bread you’ll ever eat, this is your place! It is a great place to bring everyone, because they have a broad menu of not just Indian. They have burgers, wings and cheesesteaks. The Lamb Saag is sooooo good! My husband and I ate there, and took the rest of the family back, the following week! Delicious!

Had an amazing dinner here last night. Karara is a bar/restaurant serving Indian/Pakistani foods. The staff is amazing and so very proud of their food and it shows. They taken time to explain the menu and make suggestions. Very polite and customer oriented staff. Food is truly amazing! Middletown area is full of American foods this is a welcome change for something different. However they do offer an entire separate menu for those into burgers and steaks as well so something there for everyone. Highly recommend a visit and try some of the great foods that are offered.
