Desi Adda - Indian Fast Food

It is our favorite South Indian spot, we went there over 10 times during last year. It is always freshly made, full of flavor, with a nice service. Highly recommended to explore their menu for Dahi puri, dabeli, Kathi rolls.

❗️❗️💲15💲❗️❗️for one burnt single peice of kulcha. Very disappointing experience. I ordered one plate of kulcha with chole, and the quantity was shockingly small. It came with just one kulcha, which was burnt and overcooked. The taste was horrible and not enjoyable at all. Definitely not worth the price. I expected much better quality and portion size. Unfortunately, I would not recommend this dish or return based on this experience.

If you’re craving authentic Indian street food in Jersey City, Desi Adda is a must-visit spot. The place really captures that Mumbai street vibe — from the colorful setup to the energetic atmosphere. The food is the real highlight. Their vada pav, pani puri, and paneer tikka rolls are packed with flavor and feel very close to what you’d get in India. The live pani puri experience (with multiple flavors) makes it even more fun and interactive. The menu has a great variety of chaats, sandwiches, frankies, and shakes, so there’s always something new to try. Service is friendly and helpful — staff often take time to explain the menu, which is great if you’re new to Indian street food. The place is casual, quick, and perfect for grabbing a snack or a late-night bite. Overall, Desi Adda is a solid go-to for flavorful, affordable, and nostalgic Indian street food. Definitely worth checking out if you’re in the area!

This was one of my best chaat experiences here in NJ. Both Shabnam and Rushali were so welcoming, kind and warm. They were super knowledgeable on every dish and they served us with extreme warmth and love, they added to the entire experience. The food quality and taste was superb! We had 3 plates of Pani poori that was a live station and we truly loved it! Nostalgic Indian vibes. The dhabang Vada pav was amazing, and the dhabeli was also AWESOME!!!

One of the highlights was the live pani puri station—such a fun experience and the pani puri tasted just like authentic Indian street food. They also have a great selection of Indian street food, all perfectly spiced and freshly prepared. The vibe is lively and welcoming, making it a great place to hang out with friends. The staff were friendly and attentive, which made the experience even better. If you’re looking for amazing Indian food, street food vibes, and a fun atmosphere in Jersey City, this spot is definitely a must-visit. Highly recommend!
