I had a great dining experience at Hot Murga. I tried three dishes, and each one impressed me. The Badmaash Fries were a perfect blend of crispy fries topped with chicken, pickles, and sauce, a truly mouthwatering treat. The Ginger Lavender Lemonade was a refreshing surprise, with zesty lemonade infused with ginger and lavender, making it a satisfying and unique beverage. I really loved it. Lastly, the Cardamom Ice Cream was a perfect sweet ending to my meal. They have a creative menu.

Ordered this for delivery: the chicken looks really good and comes out looking great, like a photo. The chicken itself is very juicy – the murga seasoning though is somewhat like adding curry on top of the chicken, the sauce isn’t really integrated with this chicken in the way a Nashville style hot chicken should be. The fries have a bit of batter on them. The waffle is very chewy (in a good way) with a nice hit of cardamom. Overall, it’s pretty solid, the waffles and fries are a bit over priced and the signature sandwich with the sauce and all the toppings, it just doesn’t feel very integrated. Feels more like when you go to five guys and order a bunch of toppings and they all happen to be on the same sandwich.

I’ve been on a major Hot Chicken kick lately after having taken a trip to Nashville. I heard about this place and thought I’d give it a try when I happened to be in New Haven around lunch. I really enjoyed the fusion of the Indian flavors and spices in the hot chicken and fries. I had the hot chicken sandwich, and it was very good in terms of flavors although the chicken was sort of crunchier than I would have liked. Crispy, yes, but there was a hard crunch to the exterior. Not sure if this one was a little overcooked but anyway it was still delicious. The Masala fries were also very tasty. Lots of flavor on them.

We’re lovers of both hot chicken and Indian flavors, so we were super excited when we learned of Hot Murga! This is the only spot I know of with this concept, and all of the food was delicious. I was especially impressed by the mac and cheese which was super cheesy and would’ve been killer on its own too! I appreciated that they had a range of spices for every palate, because I’m more on the mild side, while my fiancé will get his food as hot as he can. Though I feel the chicken could’ve been a little bit more juicy, the flavors were really good, and everything seemed very fresh. The ginger lavender lemonade and cardamom cheesecake ice cream were a great way to cool down, and we liked their outdoor seating area. All of the food came out quickly too!

A very unique combination of fried chicken and Indian food! The chicken sandwich is a must try, the chicken itself is delicious on any dish. The tikka masala sauce tastes similar to malai kofta sauce, it’s sweet and little nutty. The fries were amazing and seasoned perfectly. The Mac and cheese was OK, wasn’t my favorite with the Indian flavors. The ice cream cheesecake is super thiccc and delicious! All and all the chicken here is the real winner, it’s so crispy and thick and you get your money’s worth. Highly recommend coming here for a good chicken sandwich!

Absolutely incredible! So much flavor and heat. The fried chicken was so well done, and the fries were perfectly crispy. We ordered while visiting from out of town and I’ll be dreaming about it after we leave. Highly recommend.
