"From the hand-carved wood and gold-patterned wallpaper to the gleaming marble, it seems no expense was spared when designing Punjab Grill, the first statewide outpost of a luxury chain with locations spanning the globe. The regional Punjab-focused menu is equally dazzling and luxurious, with caviar and gold leaf sprinkled in among other quality ingredients. One, not-to-be-missed favorite is the aloo tikki chaat, which arrives as a towering, boulder-like presentation of crispy potato cake topped with a mashup of lightly roasted Brussels sprouts and fried kale, then dressed with avocado sauce, raspberry chutney, and rosewater-infused yogurt. The drama continues through dessert, with the elegant and eye-catching dark chocolate pistachio gianduja." - The MICHELIN Guide
