Lunch, 11 to 3, every day

Lunch is a different problem from dinner: it has a clock on it. Ours is built to be complete, hot, and out the door in time.

What the box holds

The lunch box at $17.99 is a full plate rather than a sampler — an entrée, rice, bread and the accompaniments that make them work together, packed so nothing goes soggy on the drive. Vegetarian and non-vegetarian versions run daily, and the kitchen keeps the heat level to whatever you ask for.

Service runs 11:00 am to 3:00 pm every day of the week. The box itself is takeout only — it is packed to go, not served at the table — and ordering it on our website takes 10% off.

Built for the corridor

Cranbury sits where Route 130 meets South River Road, minutes from Turnpike Exit 8A, which puts us inside the lunch radius of offices in South Brunswick, Monroe, Hightstown, the Windsors and along Route 1. Parking is free and at the door, so a pickup run costs you the drive and nothing else.

Feeding a team? Small catering trays serve 10–12 guests and arrive on your meeting's schedule — see catering trays or the corporate catering guide.

If you have an hour

Sit down instead. A tandoori starter, a gravy and a bread is a proper lunch, and the dining room is quiet in the middle of the day — it is the best time to try something new off the menu and ask questions about it.

Book a lunch table or just walk in; midday usually has room.
