This is one of the few places on Oak Tree road where you can get desi filter coffee. But dont go with high hopes.
Filter coffee - disappointing 4/10 (dilute, milky, not even close to the real thing)
Idli - 5/10
Pakoda - 5/10
These were for breakfast.

Volga, Iselin, NJ
1546A Oak Tree Rd, Iselin, NJ (732) 494-5151

Chilli paneer - useless. - 4/10. The paneer tasted like tofu (abnormal behavior for paneer).
Aaloo paratha - average - 5/10.
Ganne ka ras (sugarcane juice) - you get it here. Average.
This place is not worth the time and calories.

Ming, Iselin, NJ
1655 Oak Tree Rd # 185, Edison, NJ (732) 549-5051

Supposed to be the best Indian Chinese in the Oak Tree area (by the locals). It was above average, but not impressed.
Chilli paneer (wet) - 6/10
Chicken chilli (wet) - 6/10

Why cant anyone make these the way they are made in India?? (minus the MSG)

Moghul, Iselin, NJ
1655 Oak Tree Rd # 195, Edison, NJ (732) 549-5050

Buffet - 6/10 - above average buffet.
I have heard from the locals that their entrees are much better, but they dont serve from the menu when they have the buffet. The locals also claim that Ming is the best general restaurant in the Oak Tree Rd vicinity (Iselin, Edison area)

12/31/08 update

The place has been renovated this year, but the food seems to have taken a hit.

Chicken Tikka - 6/10. 

Chicken Shami kabab - 4/10. This was pretty bad. It stank and tasted like spoilt daal (lentil).

Goat biryani - 6/10. Tasty, but needed more biryani flavor and a better goat

Goat curry - 6/10. 

Lamb seekh kabab - 6/10. Needed more spices and flavor.

Jalebi - 6/10. These were the red ones (vs the yellow ones - just a color technicality), but made in oil (vs ghee - those are the best). 

One of the best non-veg Indian restaurants on Oak Tree Rd in Iselin, NJ (Moghul - which the locals say is the best restaurant there, is not a targeted non-veg place. Shahnawaz is a carnivore's paradise :) The food has flavor, different curried items actually taste different.
Sample platter (different types of kababs and meat chunks) - 7/10
Lamb biryani - 7/10
Chicken seekh kabab - 6/10
Lamb seekh kabab - 7/10
