Freehold Restaurant Named Among Best In State By NJ Monthly

FREEHOLD, NJ - One Freehold restaurant was named among the 30 best restaurants in New Jersey by NJ Monthly Magazine.

Aarzu was named to the latest list, which is published annually in late October. Aarzu is located at 30 East Main St.

2020 marks the first year the restaurant was featured on the coveted list.

Here's what the magazine had to say about Aarzu:

Modernizing traditional Indian dishes, chefs Shravan Shetty and Dayanand Shetty (no relation) offer creations like a smoky, rich, classic butter chicken, and avocado mango bhel, a twist on a traditional Mumbai dish of puffed rice, which they enliven with avocado and mango and present in colorful layers. Their duck paratha tacos cradle the curried meat in small, round flatbreads instead of tortillas. “We like to play with regional flavors and focus on different regions,” says owner Archana Sharma. The menu is as approachable as it is adventurous. BYO.
