Gokul Sweets

I come here for the desserts, but when my mom came to visit, we came for the food. This is definitely North Indian food, but they have an idli/vada combo on the menu, and it was still really good! My mom had the thali, and really enjoyed it. They do simple counter service, but it's worth it to come for the food. The desserts are always good so take some home!

Chaat was pretty good, I would stay away from the sweets though. Specifically the rasmalia.

We got take out here on Diwali weekend. The Chole bhatura was terrible. The bhatura was very oily and they gave the smallest amount of chole. I couldn't even eat half the bhatura with the amount of chole they gave. And the small container of chole had so much oil floating on top. We got garlic naan and it was the frozen garlic naan that you can buy from the Indian grocery store. It was thick and had no flavor. It wasn't even heated up properly. The paneer makhani had paneer that tasted like old, hardened paneer. The malai kofta lacked any spices. The quantity of the curries was pitiful considering the cost. Truly disappointed in the quality and quantity of food.

Excellent and affordable food. Service is what you'd expect at a casual takeout place. Ambience is denitely casual. I would highly recommend the Saag paneer, the best I've tasted in Atl!

We went to have snacks in saturday evening at Gokul Sweets. We ordered Sev puri, Ragda Patties, Dahi Vada and Faluda. Our order came in 5-7 minutes and it was quick. Sev Puri: Sev Puri was the best of the lot and one of the amazing dishes we had in Gokul Sweets. 4/5Ragda Patties: Ragda Patties was a disappointment and we didnt like its taste. 2/5Dahi Vada: Dahi Vada was okay but nothing special about that. 3/5Faluda: Faluda was another disappointment from the last time we came. We loved the faluda last time but this time it was a disappointment. 1/5

5 stars for their sweets. Got the carrot halwa, rasgulla, and jalebi. All very delicious :) 2 stars for the food. First of all their curries don't come with rice and you have to order it separately. Second, I got the paneer tikka masala and there was absolutely no flavor to it. Will come again to try their pani puri though!

Gokul Sweets is an humble joint featuring vegetarian Indian dishes and various traditional desserts with booth seating. The first location of Gokul Sweets was established in the year 2002. The name Gokul Sweets was derived from Lord Krishna's birth place in the village of Gokul, located in district of Mathura in Uttar Pradesh, India. All Indians missing their delicious sweets from their native country, can feel at home by making them a visit. They have amazing food that will fill your heart with joy. They provide sweets for all occasions and also accept online orders. With more than 200 varieties of delicious sweets, you will be able to purchase products from their web-store and have them delivered directly to your door-step. The quality of services offered to the customers are unique and first class. They provide the best food, with fast and friendly service.Here are some of my favorite dishes that you should try: 1) Wada Pav - Spicy mashed potato ball, dipped in chickpea flour batter and deep fried to perfection, stuffed in an Indian bread topped with our special combination of chutneys. 2) Gokul Special Thali - A serving of three vegetables, three rotis, dal, rice, dessert, farsan, raita, achar and papadoms. Served weekends only. 3) Pav Bhaji - A specialty from bombay of uniquely curried mixed vegetable served with a special Indian bread and finely sliced onions. 4) Pani Puri - Crunchy puries with boiled potato bits, chick peas, moong and topped with a special pani puri masala and served with a tongue tickling tangy flavored mint water.They do have ample free parking in front of their restaurant and it is conveniently located in Patel Plaza. The food is amazing. The service is great. They keep the place very clean. They were very nice and helpful. Kind of a cafeteria/bakery feel but the food is more home cooked. Definitely brings memories of India back every time I eat there. I always walked out of this place with 100% satisfaction. If you are in the area, please do give a try and you will not be disappointed. I will be going back soon to try more from their extended menu.

For my first visit ever, I'd say that this place was great! I tried their paneer masala, bhel puri (which by the way, was one of my favorites), spring dosa and the garlic naan. The bhel puri tasted very nice, it had a fresh sweet taste. Not sure how to describe it. That's the best I could do. Hehe. I am a huge fan of naan.. Any and every kind of naan! Especially when the naan is hot, fresh and very fluffy and soft! Later, I bought some corn flakes (chevda) - $5.99. And I was so glad that they accepted credit cards! I would love to try the other different food next time.

When I was out looking for a drink after dinner, I came across Gokul Sweets and really didn't know it existed. I mean, there's ANOTHER Gokul Sweets location not even a mile away in the Patel Plaza. This location is closer to Cherians.I came on a Thursday evening right before they closed, and man, the colors! There's just so many snacks that range from the hot pink to the bright yellow, and they all catch your eye. My drinks plan went out the window and I decided to start selecting sweets from their displays. Tonight I got:Badam Tarbooz x 1 ($9.99/lb)Pista Barfi x 1 ($7.99/lb)Coconut Barfi x 1 ($7.99/lb)Kaju Pista Katri x 1 ($9.99/lb)Dry fruit milk shake x 1 ($5.50)Running down the list of desserts, the Badam Tarbooz was delicious! It looked like a small little slice of watermelon, and guess what? It TASTES like a little slice of watermelon. I laughed when I bit into it, shared some with my mom and sister, and they both laughed too. It's not at all what you expect, but it's dang good!The Pista (Green color) and Coconut (yellow color) Barfi squares are both very rich, and flavor of both are also really good. The pista is pistachio and the Coconut is, well, coconut. Both have sliced almonds covering them. I think I preferred the coconut one more of these two.The Kaju pista katri is also a pistachio flavored snack that is almost a tiny diamond shaped sandwich. You can peel these apart and eat each individual layer. I think the pistachio flavor here wasn't as pronounced but it also wasn't bad. Still, this was my least favorite snack.The Dry Fruit milk shake was surprisingly really good. Very slightly sweet, and filled with finely chopped nuts including cashew, pistachio and almond as well as spices that made me smile. If you like a sugary sweet drink, this may not be for you, but luckily they have several drinks to choose from.In addition to all the sweets i'm talking about, don't sleep on their actual meals. Gokul sweets throws down with all sorts of traditional indian and not so traditional dishes. I tried none of them this visit, but due tho their tues-thurs specials they mentioned to me, i'll be back to try them.Located off of Dekalb industrial way, right across the street from Waffle house, just before you reach Scott Blvd., it's a small little parking lot but you should be able to find a spot. Getting in and out aren't too bad either.I don't have anything bad to say about Gokul Sweets. I'm just sad that I didn't find it earlier

Great place for fresh mithai and Indian fast food. The kadhai paneer is excellent. Not all cuisines are up to mark but do check out their dresser rack and savory snacks
