"Since Miami always marches to the beat of its own tiki tiki music, it’s fitting that the city's best Indian restaurant is also uniquely Miami. And Ghee is serving food that could only exist in the 305. The bhel puri chaat is a seamless mashup of bhel puri and ceviche. The turmeric marinated fish uses a local catch, the bhatura has avocado in its dough, and so many of the best dishes source ingredients from Ghee's own farm in Homestead. This is Indian food done Miami style—and done in a way that makes a delicious argument that bhel puris, bhaturas, and vindaloo are just as Miami as pastelitos, Cuban coffee, and arriving very late to a party." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino
"Semifinalist for Outstanding Restaurant presented by Acqua Panna® Natural Spring Water." - Erin Perkins
"Ghee, the Kendall spot from chef Niven Patel and Mohamed “Mo” Alkassar, offers a modern take on Indian cuisine in a setting that combines exposed brick, wood accents, twinkling lights, colorful artwork, and an open kitchen. The menu leans heavily on ingredients from Patel’s two-acre Rancho Patel farm in Homestead, resulting in dishes like the spiced, tender smoked lamb neck and a creamy green millet risotto topped with seasonal vegetables, and the crowd-favorite ghost pepper cheddar naan, perfect for scooping up the rich curries. For those who can’t decide, the three-course tasting menu, priced at $65, provides a well-rounded tour of Ghee’s offerings. Don’t overlook the bar program, which features inventive wine-based cocktails such as the Mumbai Mule with house-made ginger beer and the tart tamarind sour." - Olee Fowler

"Ghee’s Niven Patel has played a critical role in redefining Indian cuisine on South Florida’s stage, sourcing the restaurant’s ingredients from local farmers and from Patel’s Homestead farm nicknamed Rancho Patel. The menu rotates often and features Indian-meets-Miami cuisine like roasted calabaza curry, turmeric-marinated local fish, and smoked lamb neck. Too many good things to choose? Go for the family-style tasting menu, which can also include wine pairings." - Eater Staff
