Curry in A Hurry

About this business

If you are pressed for time and desire Indian food for a change instead of a burger or deli dishes, Curry in a Hurry is the place for you. All the standard dishes are reasonably priced. It is also a great place to go with your children to introduce them to such delicacies as samosas and tandoori chicken. The decor is no more inspiring than a school cafeteria, but Indian movies and videos are shown, and you can look out of the window to enjoy the sights and sounds of the neighborhood while you tuck in.

I good place for a quick curry but I would check out the other Indian places around the block first. The prices here are a bit higher than the other Indian places close to them and more spicy. But if you want speed this is the place. The moment you walk into the door you are in line for your food.

BEWARE!!! - THEY ARE SCAMMERS & CON ARTISTS!!!! Beware, everyone, I have been here twice within the last month late at night around midnight. I specifically ordered a meat dish, they then SWITCHED to vegetable dish underneath the counter, wrapped it up in plastic ... so I didn't realize the switch until I got home.The first time it happened, I thought it was a mistake. The second time it happened, I know THEY ARE SCAMMERS, taking advantage people late at night!!! CURRY IN A HURRY, YOU BEWARE, IT HAPPENS AGAIN, I WILL F******... read more

risky – I used to drop in for an occassional quick meal. I ate there this week and I felt fine when I went in but had a stomach ache when I left. The pain finally went away about three days later. I won't go back. There are plenty of better restaurant in that Curry Hill neighborhood.

The Name Rhymes, so it Tastes Good – Atop appropriately-named Curry Hill proudly sits Curry in a Hurry. Or really, sort of glows with bright fluorescence. In its no-frills sort of way, this restaurant is cheap and offers quality food. Filling two stories and almost always busy, it has yet to seriously disappoint me. What lacks in ambiance is made up in the food, and the service, as the name suggests is prompt, and even a bit abrupt. Food brought by the server is only half the fun, as two salad bars, wedged into uncomfortable... read more

They gave me someone's leftover for "extra" offer – I've been to this place twice. The first time in a late evening, found the guy at the counter in black T shirt looking as if he has a lot of complaints about his job?? Perhaps I was too hungry, so it seemed good to me, cheap and food were acceptable, the naan/bread was very toasty, though the fish fry had apparently been on display behind the window for too long after being cooked so that it all dried out like a mummy. I imagine it could have been quite good if eaten fresh.... read more

Extra-Bland Indian Food for People Who Don't Know Better – This really isn't the greatest place for Indian food. They prepare everything for Americans, which means - bland and under spiced. The place isn't that clean either and the price isn't all that great. If you think the food served at this place is great then you probably think Chef Boyardee is great Italian food. Try Kashmir on 8th between 38th and 39th - not the best service or fanciest place, but at least the cusine is authentic.

Great fast food indian! – So, I like curry, and I'm often in a hurry, so this place is great! Although a bit on the pricier side for a fast food Indian place, it was still worth the $10 I paid for delicious chicken tikka masala, naan bread and two samosas. Actually now that I think of it, that's a pretty good deal for the amount of food I got. They have a great selection of Indian food, and the masala was divine. There's seating upstairs if you want to stay too. So go there. It rocks!

Big on price, low on flavor – I went to Curry in a Hurry for lunch one day when I was actually in a hurry. I ran in and scanned the menu quickly. Everything seemed to be around $6.99 for lunch. There were a lot of people in there rushing through so I had to make a choice quickly. I chose Chicken Tikka Masala since a lot of people were getting that and it looked good. It came with a veggie so I got the cauliflower medley. It all looked really good. When I went to pay they told me it was $10.83. I asked if they were sure and t... read more

Will eat again soon! – I was excited to try this place but unfortunately didn't get to eat as much as i wanted. i tried the chicken kebab/kofta and a masala something that had potatoes in a rice flour crepe like wrapping. the kofta was very nice, with lots of spice and flavor. it was moist as well, not dry like others i've had at other places. the indian 'burrito/crepe' I had was wonderful as well, especially if you dipped it in the corriander/yogurt chutney. i wish I could give a better critique but seeing that I'm not an e... read more
