A Michelin-Starred Indian Restaurant From London Opens Its First U.S. Location at the Aria | Eater Vegas

"Inside Aria Resort and Casino, London’s two-Michelin-starred restaurant opens its first U.S. location in an opulent, 175-seat setting of richly colored rooms—an ideal backdrop for chef Srikant Kumar’s traditional dishes that, for the first time for the brand, include beef, like a beef short rib pepper fry in coconut and South Indian spices. The menu leans North Indian while drawing from the South and West, organized into appetizers, kebabs and tikkas, curries and biryanis, and stewy sabzi: tamarind- and mint-chutney fried chicken, wagyu keema naan, duck egg and lobster spiced rice, four types of pappadum with three chutneys, yogurt-marinated lasooni wild tiger prawns, and butter chicken slow-cooked for hours with milk solids, fenugreek, and charred chicken in masala for deeper flavor. Heartier plates include slow-braised pork cheek vindaloo with onions, chili, cloves, and palm vinegar, and venison biryani dressed with pomegranate and mint raita, while the sabzi section stays classic with vegetable dishes like chickpea masala; a $165 tasting menu is available. Drinks range from tableside cocktail punch service and a chutney-inspired spicy mezcal margarita to the Pina Col-Lassi (Mount Gay Eclipse rum, Foursquare Probitas rum, clarified coconut and pineapple puree), plus reserve cocktails from $60 up to the $400 Boss Hogg Old Fashioned with WhistlePig The Boss Hog XI rye, gomme simple syrup, bitters, and orange oil, alongside non-alcoholic options like classic mango lassi and salted lemon nimbu pani lemonade. U.K.-based design studio North End reworked the former Julian Serrano Tapas space with bold forest green double doors, a mirror-flanked foyer, chili-hued ceilings, floral mirrors, a bar and lounge, and paisley carpet with hints of teal, and created the 58-seat Vault—part of the main dining room that can be made private—plus the intimate five-seat 42 Bar. Open Sunday to Thursday from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. and until 10:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday; reservations are via SevenRooms or the ARIA Concierge at (702) 590-9520." - Mona Holmes

Gymkhana Vegas marks JKS Restaurants’ first North American outpost, a major milestone for the acclaimed group, whose original Gymkhana in London holds two Michelin stars. The Vegas space is absolutely stunning, featuring rich dark wood paneling, plush seating, and polished marble tabletops that create a refined yet inviting atmosphere. The energy is vibrant and buzzy, striking the perfect balance between upscale and lively. The food more than lives up to the hype. Each dish is packed with bold, beautifully balanced flavors. The spices are expertly layered which adds depth and dimension without ever overpowering the palate. Meats are cooked flawlessly, and every plate arrives perfectly seasoned and beautifully presented Standout favorites include the Gol Guppas (fried wheat puffs filled with spicy cumin water and lentil sprouts), the Quail Kebab (succulent roasted quail with coriander, mint, onions, and mint chutney), and the Lassoni Tiger Prawn (jumbo prawns roasted with garlic and chilies). The Masala Lamb Chops are exceptional, and of course, the famous Chicken Butter Masala (a tomato-forward take on the iconic dish) is a must-order. Be sure to leave room for dessert, especially the outstanding cardamom rice kheer pudding and soothing rose petal tea. Service is attentive and polished, with staff who are genuinely proud to represent such an iconic brand. Easily the best Indian food in Vegas and an absolute must-visit. Reservations are essential (they’re typically released about 30 days in advance), and you should budget approximately $400 for two including tax and tip.

Tony at the bar is on point. Reservations were impossible if not 2 months prior. Walked in with hope bar was open, you MUST reserve the bar! I reserved it for an hour after I arrived (soonest available), luckily they text me my table was ready after 25 min. Regardless the service and food are top notch. I prefer to come here w a group to try more dishes, but I ate great. The beef naan appetizer was amazing w yogurt sauce. Followed up by the chicken tikka. I had short ribs as entree, spinach/corn veggie. More than I could eat. The special margaritas great, lager was perfect. Highly recommend. Thank you!

First I wanna say Jher was a wonderful waiter, but all the staff were fantastic here. This is my 2nd time at Gymkhana, the first being in London, and it defenitly keeps the same level of quality and service. Every dish they served us, I could not think of any ways to improve upon. The flavors and spice levels were absolute perfection (for the record they Do Not ask your spice tolerance, which for me is a huge Plus since I despise that question, but for people that have difficulty with spice they may have issues). I can’t even choose a favorite dish as they were all my favorite 😂but you would be remiss if you didn’t get the biriyani. The cocktails also all delicious, as well as the mango lassi. My only complaint was I was too full to have desert. Which was also the case in London 😂. I will most defenitly return here and hope it stays a fixture in Vegas. I know this is a short review for such high marks but I seriously have no complaints or issues. Just perfection. Obviously it’s pricey but at no point did I feel I didn’t get my moneys worth. Also it tasted just as good reheated the next day 😂

I had high hopes from this place, but it turned out this place is not worth the hype or the price. Reservations don’t seem to mean much since we waited over 40 minutes past our reserved time to be seated. The food was below average. While the service is good, the server had very limited knowledge of the menu. It feels like management has focused more on decor/vibes (which are wonderful btw), than on taste. Note to management: Please replace the front desk lady wearing Sabyasachi belt with someone smiling and pleasant to have a welcome interaction with.

Expectations were high because we had been to the location in London. I was in Vegas for work with my daughter and Gymkhana in Vegas did not disappoint! John and Rachel were our servers...amazing! John was one of the best servers!! Food, exceptional!! We had the Aloo Chaat..don't ask, just get it...did not want that one to be gone! Tandoori chicken was SOOO good...loved the spices! Also had the chicken butter masala ( need the bread basket for that one and YUM!) Liked the morel mushroom but was so full! We didn't order dessert but they gave us a couple of 'treats' that were delicious! So happy we got to go and hope to go back next time I'm working in Vegas. Thank you for a great dinner experience!!

The Gymkhana Vegas does not have a Michelin star its London location does! But this place does absolute justice to its name. Drinks were unique and good. Golgappa, Lamb chops highly recommend. The flavors were on point and amazing. The butter chicken, mushroom pilaf were better than average but not mind blowing (which is what you’d expect here) Ambience is very nice and service top notch. Our servers were humble honest and extremely helpful. Though they were not of Indian origin they told everything from their perspective! This is a classy fine dining experience, where you get to taste amazing food and the prices are on the heavier side. If you’re going here expecting a large portion because you paid the premium then avoid it, go to the Taj or Marigold. But if you’re connoisseur of food this place is worth your time!

What a fantastic meal we had here, made all the better by the wonderful team taking care of us. Special thanks to Wil, Ruben and Alex for making the evening one to remember. We all agreed the lamb chops were the best we had ever had. The ambience was perfect, music was at a nice level. The restaurant was busy and mostly with groups. We shared the paneer, beef short rib, chicken tikka, butter chicken and poppadoms. There was quite a wait before the food arriving for each course. This was fine for us as we did not have plans after our meal. Just worth considering if you do manage to dine here.

Hands down, one of the best dining experiences on the strip. Stunning ambiance and loved the playlist. All dishes were sophisticated and delicious- definitely elevated Indian cuisine. Highly recommend for a date night. Victor provided amazing service! Very personable and attentive! Can’t say one bad thing about our evening here!
