"This high-end restaurant in SoMa is reimagining traditional Indian cuisine and mixing in ingredients and cooking styles from around the world with the precision of a lauded scientist. Rich koya and ricotta-stuffed black morel mushrooms are slathered in decadent yakhni sauce. And the avocado-filled puri puffs topped with chilled yogurt mousse satisfyingly crack in your mouth. The best part is you'll eat it in the presence of a fancy ayurvedic-inspired cocktail, and in a place that's jewel-toned, swank, and filled with velvet chairs." - julia chen 1, lani conway, ricky rodriguez
