"This Punjabi spot in Murray Hill makes some of the best tandoor chicken in the city, and their entire menu is available for takeout and delivery through a few different online platforms, or by calling 212-679-1284. Focus on the tandoor section - all of the meat tastes like it’s been marinated for days before it reaches your mouth in all of its smoky, and spicy glory." - hannah albertine
"This is one of the best Indian restaurants in NYC and the menu has sections devoted to both vegan and vegetarian dishes, respectively. Whether you’re in the mood for spicy potatoes cooked with cumin and green chilies or cheesy paneer in a creamy pepper sauce, you’ll find it here." - nikko duren
"Murray Hill is known as Curry Hill, and we’re making an exception regarding the borders of this neighborhood to tell you about two Indian spots that are located just above 27th Street. Dhaba’s menu is fairly big, with tons of options from chaats to curries to daals to a bunch of tandoor items. This place is no secret - it gets crowded at dinnertime, as well as at lunch when they serve a popular and highly affordable buffet." - hillary reinsberg
"You’ll find some of the very best tandoori chicken in NYC at Dhaba, a Punjabi spot in Murray Hill. You wouldn’t be making a bad decision by eating tikka masala or biryani here during the $13 lunch buffet, but you should prioritize dinner and focus your attention on the tandoor section of the menu. All of the meat tastes like it’s been marinated for days before it reaches your mouth in all of its smoky, and spicy glory. Plus they’re open till 1am on Fridays and Saturdays so you can treat this spot as a pitstop on your way to bed." - Nikko Duren
