13 Essential New Haven Restaurants
"Duck down a pedestrian-only path off the bustling Broadway Triangle, which hasn’t yet given way entirely to chain stores thanks to indie shops like Neville Wisdom and Grey Matter Books, to find Sherkaan’s colorful dining room and ample patio amid Eero Saarinen’s midcentury Yale architecture. This place is a hip highlight of New Haven’s strong Indian food scene, serving dishes like goat biryani and chickpea chole bhature inspired by Central and South Indian street foods. The drinks are also playful yet poised, from shareable punch bowls to complex mocktails; try a nimbu pani with lime cordial, black salt, lime juice, masala soda, and mint before catching a show at Toad’s Place." - Stasia Brewczynski
