"At Daru, the anticipated Indian restaurant and cocktail bar, Suresh Sundas pulls ingredients and techniques from all over to create unique dishes such as reshmi kebabs with a marinade of blue cheese, yogurt, and spices. The menu features items like chicken tikka masala with daal makhani on burrata, pesto tikka paneer, and lamb shank marinated in spices and cooked in a Kashmiri chile and coconut milk sauce. The bar, managed by Dante Datta, offers inventive cocktails like the Hari Daiquiri, Kali Cooler, and a kesari Old Fashioned. Daru opens for indoor and outdoor seating, with plans for to-go orders and extended hours." - Gabe Hiatt
