Best

I go to Earth kind of a lot for lunch. it is 50% off if you eat in instead of doing take out. The service is fast and the food is very good. I highly reccomend this restaurant...

Worst

My boyfriend and I went there to meet with friends. Since we were there first and it was before 8pm (Happy Hour time) we sat at the bar and had cocktails! Then I got the bill - 44...

Overpriced... has potential... needs a better DJ 12/7/2008

When we walked in, no cover which was cool....i went for a cousin bday party and left before eatting..Big MISTAKE! The food was a bit over priced being that we only ordered some Kulchas( Nans) and Varitey of Kebas.it came out to $175... being the food wasn't that good... i felt that it was watered down not very authentic indian food.... which is ok since i didn't get sick after eatting it! but no one wants to get ripped off \r \r my advice is your better off going to Richmond Hill or Jackson Heights and having some great Indian food....Don't go here to Eat!\r \r after dinner they moved the tables and it turned into a club... The DJ wasn't playing any good songs.( i guess i didn't like the music) ... but there was a good crowd... I enjoyed my self but i felt like i got ripped off on the meal...If you want indian food your better off eating in queens.... come to earth for the party Pros: good ambience good service nice place to bring a girl Cons: overpriced indian food for couples trying to be romantic more

Great Lunch 11/7/2008

I go to Earth kind of a lot for lunch. it is 50% off if you eat in instead of doing take out. The service is fast and the food is very good. I highly reccomend this restaurant for lunch if you are in the area. Pros: 50% off lunch! more

super nice place 10/15/2008

like the food, half price lunch is good. always thought this is a bar or club from the outside until i went there for lunch. that wall of candles amazes me!\r Pros: nice setting Cons: a little expensive more

Fantastic food. Superb service. All around good time. I would definitely go back. 8/24/2008

My friends and I ate here at 6:30pm on a Sunday. FOOD: Entrees are not put on your main plate; they come in their own bowls ? which we loved, as it allowed us to more easily sample each other?s dishes. Great for a newcomer to Indian cuisine, like me. Also great for those practicing portion control. Entrees do NOT include side dishes, so for a party of four or more, ordering a bread basket for the table instead of separate sides is a good deal for everyone. The food was outstanding. The spiciness of the dishes was just right. For dessert, I had the Chocolate Dynamite Cake ? which is a misnomer. There was much more mousse than cake. It was excellent, but very dense. It?s almost worth the extra money to order kulfi (Indian ice cream) and eat them together. Specialty cocktails are made strong and were nearly half price when we went (might have been part of a Happy Hour deal). SERVICE: You will get a phone call to confirm your reservations. Our server did NOT give us a hassle when we asked for separate checks. Everyone's orders arrived in a timely manner. One of my friends mentioned to our server that one of her favorite Indian dishes was not on the menu. She eventually decided to get an on-menu dish. When her entree came, the server also brought a small cup of the off-menu dish (and didn?t charge us for it). SCENE: The place was empty when we arrived, but started filling up by the time we left (around 9-10pm). Dress code seemed to be dressy casual. DECOR: Beautiful and comfortable. The table spacing and air conditioning was just right. The music was good and not too loud or intrusive to conversation. Discovering that there are four single-person unisex bathrooms was a pleasant surprise (and they were clean!). LOCATION: Desolate. I am female and would NOT feel comfortable standing on that street for too long by myself after dark. Travel in packs, ladies. Pros: Service, Food, Decor, Bathroom Cons: Location, Some menu items are pricey more

Good Fun! 6/1/2008

Food was decent. Price was reasonable, and place has great decor. After dinner the place turns into a bar/club. I was celebrating there for my 31st, and had a blast. The crowd was good, and the age group was late 20's I think, at least it seemed that way. There is a loft area that can be reserved, for a small group. Nice place, good fun. more

Horrible music, waterdown drinks and terrible service 5/31/2008

The website might look great, but the restaurant was a nightmare. They abrutly closed the kitchen before we could order our dinner at 10:30PM, to set up for a dance area. Then they began to play music from Eddie Murphy, the last time I heard Eddie Murphy's songs was in the 80's. The drinks were overprised and tasted like water. My girlfriend's and I bolted from this restaurant and had a excellent time at Buddakkan. Pros: Nice website Cons: bad food, bad music and bad attitude by staff more

5 star and even more, 2 thumbs up!! 4/14/2008

i just celebrated my birthday party at Earth this past saturday (Apr 12 2008). My friends are used to places such as Cain, Pink Elephant, Cipriani's,.... So when I came up with the idea of Earth, everyone was really skeptical. I didn't even know the place! It was my first time there and already on the phone the boss was amazingly nice, easygoing and soooo convenient. We were about 100 people in the place and everyone had the best time. The DJ is awesome, the food is great. One advice, if you're planning your party early enough, you might even get a chance to book the beautiful mezzanine.\r Now just GOOO! Pros: waiters are so caring about you, and so eager to know how they can make your time there better! more

must experience this earthy place!!! 3/19/2008

We've been to this cool, 2-level Indian Lounge several times and consistently have had an outstanding meal every, single time! The quality of the food, especially the non vegeterian dishes, is much better than most of the other local Indian restaurants in Manhattan, and is always delicious. The staff is friendly and warm,We've introduced many Indian friends to Earth, who have had the same experience like us. Love their bar area and some of the drinks they have on their wine list, another fav of ours is the fried okra and badami shrimp they have on their menu, and to end a lovely meal one can taste their kulfi.....which my friends... we can never stop at just one!!!!\r more

heaven on earth! 3/18/2008

Our first time to try Indian food in New York and it turned out to be a superb experience! Since we have just moved from India ...and were missing good Indian food, this was the perfect place to land up.All the dishes we tried were excellent and their service was hospitable and prompt.The ambience is very cozy and warm, just loved the huge wall with candles....would def go back and maybe next time sit under the tent upstairs....for a romantic dinner ..... more

GREAT food n atmosphere...warm service 3/18/2008

Went to earth last friday night...and had a ball...the drinks were great (specially the mango martini) and food was awesome..our server recommended some excellent dishes...and also suggested a great indian wine (sula) to go with our food..i loved the fish curry (forget the name) so much that I got lunch for my office catered from earth this afternoon....The manager was extremely helpful over the phone and made sure the food arrived promptly for my lunch meeting....I was so satisfied when our client said ""it was finger licking good""!!! Pros: Good vibe...Finger licking good food more

Beware of ASTRONOMICAL PRICES for teeny tiny food 2/24/2008

This is the worst priced restaurant in NYC! We had 14 people at our party and they charged us for 18 people according to ""house policy."" The food that was given was decent but barely enough to feed 18 people and not worth the bill, which came out to close to $1000. The manager wouldn't change anything. DO NOT GO HERE. Pros: Nice candles Cons: The Bill more

A COMPLETE MESS 2/15/2008

I took my boyfriend here for Valentine's Day. Reservations were for 8:00. At 10:30, we hadn't even received our main course (only a glass of wine and an appetizer, with about 45 minutes between each). At 10:40, they brought over my main course (which was cold). My boyfriend's never arrived. There was no naan, no rice, no apologies. I don't even remember what our waiter looked like, because I barely ever saw him. Just the poor busboy who kept refilling our water as the hours went by. I don't know why the hell they would think I would eat my dinner without waiting for my date?and on Valentine's Day! At ten to 11 we walked out, disappointed and hungry. We spent the remainder of the night at a bar where we very promptly received delicious mini burgers. I'm never going to Earth NYC again. I wanted to do something special for the special person in my life. And they completely ruined it. more

BRILLIANT VALENTINE! 2/14/2008

Took my girlfriend to earth to celebrate valentines...and must say we had a brilliant evening!! The place was packed...but it was still so romantic...I guess the candles on the wall really helped :)...My girl was so impressed with my choice...it was the best Indian food she has had in a while...she grew up in London and has been raving about the Indian food there....I guess earth proved to be quite a match! We simply loved the lamb chops and the sea bass...The Indian desert was fab...forget what the name is...but its a spiced icecream! The only problem was that we waited a bit for our food....but boy it was well worth the wait!! Pros: Beautiful and romantic Cons: Food took some time to be served to us... more

worst experience on the earth 1/16/2008

I came to visit new york city for new year and decided to go see club earth. it was the biggest mistake I ever made!!!!!\r it was horrible service, waitress and security!!!! The manager disappeared after collecting the money along with our waitress, after she inssisted to tip her ahead!!! 50$ !!!! People were drunk and already sat on our table! I almost got in fight twice!!! So I decided to ask one of the bouncers to come and help me to get the people off my table which by the way I paid for 200 $ VIP seats!!!! You know what he told me? F. YOU AND LEAVE ME ALONE!!! I COULD DIE THERE AND HE WILL NOT MOVE A FINGER!!!! I got so devastated and so angry I just start crying and got out of there ASAP!!! THEY JUST RUINED MY NEW YEAR CELEBRATION!!! I AM STILL ANGRY!!! UP TO ME THEY DONT DESERVE ANY STARS!\r Pros: nothing Cons: everything!!!!!!! more

What on Earth!??!??! 12/26/2007

Before midnight, this place tends to be rather empty, while they hold crowds outside to make it appear as ""The Place To Be."" When it finally does fill up, the bar is all the way to the back of this narrow space, and is rather frustrating to get to with the masses of unwashed bodies, ten deep, blocking your way. As a female, I have never had a problem getting in, but many of my guy friends have been hassled at the door, with the bouncers trying to wrangle up to $30/pp for the dubious privilege of entering, despite having guestlists set up in advance. The normal weekend crowd is pretentious and clueless, with music that is rather unexciting and poorly mixed. This place is all flash, without substance. I would not recommend this place to anyone. Pros: Parking is generally easy to find in the neighborhood. Cons: Everything else. more

Good Service, Great Food, Very Nice Place 11/7/2007

Took my boyfriend there lastnight for his birthday. We made reservations beforehand. When we got there our table was waiting and the staff was very nice and attentive. Never had Indian food before and decided we should give it a try. Not really knows much about the dishes we both just picked something and both dishes were good. The food was great, the drinks were good, there was nice music playing in the background. We had a good time there. The waiter was very nice and attentive. Loved it there. Place looks great, romantic, candles all around. Would def recommend and would go back! Pros: Food, Ambience, Service Cons: Location- have to walk a few lonely blocks from the train station more

Horrible service, bland food!!!! 9/5/2007

The people that run this place are unorganized and rude, you get twenty diffrent stories from everyone. I had a part of 21 people and requested the table upstairs, I had a lot of questions and never got any answers until i left my cc for a deposit. I was suppose to get a free bottle of champagne b/c I had 20 people, what they did not tell me was that you had to order a bottle first to get the champagne. The cheapest bottle was $300 and we were charged $45 dollars per bottle to be served to the table. Not to mention that 18 of guest arrived ontime and I was told that we all had to be there to be seated, I reminded her that I wasn't going to be rushed eating. Sure enough I had the manager (who smelled like he had not showered in months) ontop of my guest rushing everything!!!!!!!! The food was bland the service horrible, the music lame. Never again will I be going there EVER!!!\r ( Cons: EVERYTHING more

awsome time 8/24/2007

Earth can be decribed in 1 word- awsome. the look of this place is great i love the lights. the staff is very nice and always helpful. The food is awsome and different from other indian places as they try to give indian food a new look and not keep the authentic look. but look doesnt matter its all about the tast and earth gives great tast. i reccomened this place to everyone more

No Cocktail Happy Hour 7/31/2007

My boyfriend and I went there to meet with friends. Since we were there first and it was before 8pm (Happy Hour time) we sat at the bar and had cocktails! Then I got the bill - 44 Dollars!!! I asked the waitress if they dont have happy hour and she said only for beer and open drinks... hmmmm... Their Homepage says happy hour for Cocktails!!! I was like...ok no problem... Then, by the time we wanted to get seated our reserved table was already taken!!!!!!!!!!!! So they put us on a smaller table... which still didnt make me mad! Then we got the food and even tho I think the menu do not over too many choices the food was delicious. At the end of the night, they insisted that somebody at the table had Birthday. Which wasnt true, but they still brought us a Cake for the not existing Birthday Boy!!! AND we got charged for a tiny bad tasting cake 9Dollars!!!! \r OVERALL: I would not recommend this restaurant. Even tho the food was delicious, there were too many shady things.... And its not that stylish that it claims to be. Also there are like 15 waiter but nobody really manages to come to take your orders. They charged us the regular price for happy hour prices, charged us for a birthday cake when it was nobodys birthday. Who does that?!?! Weird... \r Pros: Food is delicious Cons: Happy Hour for Cocktails?! Birthday Cake... more
