Best place for Indian street food and sweets. Visited this place two times. Everything is good here and sweets are fresh.

It doesn’t even deserve 1 star. I have tried it a few times and always disappointed. They don’t keep anything fresh. Even if they have, they’ll give the old / spoiled stuff first. Last time, I went there to buy rasmalai. They gave the fresh to taste which was ok. I bought 2 boxes. When I came home and opened them, they were the spoiled ones (slimy and sour smell was coming). I could have gone back but I stay very far.Please don’t trust them. If you buy something from there, check there itself.

I went to purchase mithai for Diwali and they were out of half of the mithais I had come to purchase. How can you be out of mithai on Diwali WEEK given that it is the basis of your entire business?! I was able to purchase some kaju katli and it was very delicious, however, I was disappointed that I drove all that way only for them not to have half the products I wanted in stock.

This shop is not my fav for sweets. I dont know how fresh they are, tried few but they were all nah for me. The ras malai was bad, crumbling and the texture was bad. The only thing I like from this store is there kulfi section.

I dont believe it was upto the mark. The taste was not good. None of us could actually eat the food. Everything was too sweet. It only looks good.

I bough some Gulab Jamun and White Rasgulla around 8/11/21 and was given a fungus infested lot. Ended up enduring food poisoning and subsequent hassle (Both time and money wise ). I was a regular to this place but now would avoid going here at all the cost. All is not neat and tidy in this kitchen. Worst part was management trying to very bluntly defend that rotten D grade sweet, I have reported this to FDA and ll be providing them the frozen sample (thankfully I kept them), later my attorney will take legal cource once my hospital bills and test are aligned. This is the picture of the sweet I bought from them, if you observe carefully the degradation is clearly visible, it was however my ignorace (or rather misplaced trust) that I bought and consumed without checking from these guys. Anyone having similar experience please dont take it hands down. Please do get in touch with me if you want to tag along in the legal case I am building. These guys need to compesate for peoples health they have been goofing around with. Regards : PK

Good selection of Indian street/snack foods, but very slow service. They offer a good selection of chaat, the fried rice dishes were good too. But lately, theyve been getting slower and slower.The last time I placed a takeout order, it took them an hour to make it (it was four items). I guess if I go back, I better plan way ahead.

The food was good. If youre looking for authentic South and North Indian food, this is the way to go. They also have an extensive selection of sweets and snacks to take home with you.

I usually dont post bad reviews unless its REALLY bad. We used to love Gokul sweets in Decatur and decided to try this one despite the bad reviews. The other reviews are correct. The food here is below mediocre. For the poori bhaji, we got a dry potato Sabji with coconut chutney, which we thought was strange. The ragda patties was good. The paneer Tikka dosa was extremely soggy and the masala was tasteless, no flavor. We blamed ourselves for ordering a South Indian dish in a chaat place and thought, you cant go wrong with bread and ordered pav bhaji and garlic naan. Boy were we wrong! The garlic naan was mostly uncooked and flat (liked tandoori roti) and the pav was flat and wasnt appealing and the bhaji tasted bad (might be a couple of days old). I hope they turn around to matching the expectations from the Decatur location.

Review №13

I wouldnt even give them 1 star actually. The food was inedible. We literally had to dump everything in the garbage. The idli, dosa, vada pav, medu vada. Every single item was inedible. There was no salt at all and items were not fresh. We also tried to return a snack we got at the counter. They offered an exchange item which made my child sick. They did not offer any refund and even refused a refund when requested. Very poor customer service and food. Please avoid at any cost.

So disappointed and furious: today we were sold SPOILED Rasmalai (as in the cream turned sour). Been going there for YEARS, but took a long break due to Covid. Today was the first day since probably early 2020.Over the years, we catered from there for Divali events and when I worked nearby, I enjoyed many quick lunches there. So Im familiar with the place.Today specifically, I asked if the Rasmalai was fresh, and rather than answering yes or no... there was back and forth dialog in their language; no big deal, English translations are tricky, whatever. The Rasmalai was soured. Coincidence? Well never know. The karachi chaat was mediocre as well: droplets of chutneys (I dont think there was any mint chutney), maybe a teaspoon of onions and a boatload of the topping. Not what I remembered.I called to let them know and (Farood?) who answered was very nice, very apologetic and said hed let the kitchen staff know and would give me a refund or a dish for free.Keep it. Im so turned off by this experience.

Review №16

Awesome decoration. But food does not taste good. They need to learn how to make dosa, chat and all. But all the sweets are awesome, you should try it. Above all these you should go there to see the restaurant, the feel is awesome

I never have eaten this much bad tasting masala dosa ever. It literally had some fillings and curry tasted so bad and so visible that it is old. Puri masala was full oil and masala was having some high jeera taste. Could not eat much food and had to waste. I felt sorry for the food but it tasted not good and did not want to hurt my stomach. Stay away. Lost $33 for 2 masal dosa and a puri masala. Last time i had some good masala dosa from that global mall norcross. Their atleast food was kind of okay worth for money.

Gokul sweets is not the same gokul sweets anymore.Their price reached sky and their taste is so bad now a days if there is negative rating I would give that too. I had to give this rating after 10 orders with the same bad taste and experience. So finally I decided not to order from gokul sweets anymore

Review №24

One of the worst sweets here.. When the tray is more than 50% empty do not buy sweets from the tray.. It is not fresh. Before we bought we asked 1000 times with the staff whether it is fresh or not. We were told everyday tray are sold fresh.. Unfortunately we trusted and bought with lots of hopes with freshness but at home when we opened all the other guests literally every single guest complained about the quality and sweets are pretty close to rock solid level. Eating stones... Never recommend.

Review №37

We order and picked up. When I came home and opened the food I thought this was a joke, because the quantity was so less, that not even 2 people can eat from one curry. Until then we were okay but when my daughter started to make the Dahi puri she saw that the sweet chutney, green chutney, and the Dahi were mixed together! When we tasted the a paneer curry it was taste less. We would rather have my husband make, even though he barley knows how to make food. I would have given this a 0 star if I could,”. This was a waste of money. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone.

Worst food ever. We have been eating to GOKUL sweets Decatur for years and love it. This shop, we tried 2 times before and the food was OK ok both times. But yesterday we ordered different curries, chat, etc. and nothing at all was having any taste. The quantity was also very less and specially kadai paneer and dal were the worst. We dont like wasting/throwing food but had to this time.

Most ridiculos service ever. I ordered six items i got two and I had to wait 1 hr for the other two. at the end they gave me the rest as to go. It is a busy store and two people working, taking order in person, taking order over phone, taking order for sweet on another counter and also serving food.Horrendous service. First and Last time to this store.

Review №57

There is an unfortunate trend with Indian restaurants in US that the food and service both deteriorates as the restaurant becomes more famous and successful. Unfortunately, GOKUL SWEETS in Duluth GA is no different. We have been regular customers of this place and have recommended many Indian and American friends to this place over the years. We have been noticing that quality of food has been going down, staff had become a lot ruder and more careless and wait time was increasing but we were still supporting this Indian business. However, what happened today is forcing me to write this review and we will not be returning to Gokul Sweets ever. As usual in this COVID environment I ordered ahead for pick-up and my mistake was that I did not ask to confirm prices while ordering as I was ordering my usual. When I arrived at the shop to pick up food the bill was almost 30% more than usual. When I asked, they said they charged $3/garlic naan even though their website and menu in the restaurant said price to be $1.87/ naan. Their excuse was that this is the new price just did not get time to update website/ menu. Charging more than advertised price is illegal. I can no more be buying from a business that is not only rude, bad in service, with degrading food quality and now price gouging customers.

Ordered lunch with clear instructions for chat items to be mixed and every single item was just packed to be made by ourselves. The samosa chat had to be thrown away because the Channa masala had gone bad. Even the signature Bombay Sandwich was messed up because the vegetable patty was still frozen and not cooked completely. Totally disappointed with the service. Called the restaurant back immediately to let them know but they dont seem to care a bit. Had high expectations because we are still a big fan of their main branch in Decatur.

Best place for Indian and Pakistani snacks. But for me there quick plates are unique and delicious. Its not something out of the world but the way they make it just unbelievable. Service is quick. You wont find yourself waiting too long. Their snack collection is huge. Most of the snacks are ready to go. But if you think of a snack which you like and is not ready, they will make that on order. Staff is very friendly.
