"The chain-filled expanse of Park Meadows mall may seem an unlikely setting for fine Indian dining, but this way lies Urban Village Grill nevertheless. Run by Chennai-born chef Charles Mani, the kitchen puts a modern, seasonal twist on traditional fare via ingredients like kale, brussels sprouts, and butternut squash, but even classics like paneer tikka, marinated in makrut-lime yogurt, and tandoori lamb in the form of chops with basil show chefly flair; outdoor grills, meanwhile, allow diners to do it themselves, choosing proteins such as brisket or scallops along with various marinades. There’s even a weekend brunch menu offering the likes of masala French toast and pav bhaji bruschetta." - Ruth Tobias
