Indian Table

"Features regional Indian cooking with Portuguese influences, offering a $45 three-course dinner menu including pork vindaloo, chicken xacuti, and salt cod croquettes." - Robert Sietsema

"Indian Table in Cobble Hill from chef Eric McCarthy mounts a $45 dinner that represents a three-course feast of Goan cuisine, which merges Indian and Portuguese flavors. From a wealth of choices, the meal might begin with salt-cod croquettes, then proceed to pork vindaloo, then on to the little custard pies called pasteis de nata." - Robert Sietsema

"The chef is from Goa, and the menu features food from that state, including several Portuguese-influenced dishes. But it also ventures beyond, including a chaat festively decorated with gold foil and coconut shrimp. The dining room is down a few steps from the street, colored blue and decorated with hanging brass lamps." - Robert Sietsema, Melissa McCart

"This recently revamped Cobble Hill restaurant centers its menu on the food of Goa, including chicken vindaloo and shrimp Goan style in a spicy and creamy coconut sauce (indeed, seafood is a major focus of the menu). But Indian Table also slings dishes aplenty from Kerala, Tamil Nadu, and Chennai, as well as a version of Lucknow goat biryani that’s meat heavy and golden brown via a naan spread across the top." - Robert Sietsema

"At Indian Table, chef Eric McCarthy turns the spotlight on Goan cuisine. Six months ago, McCarthy took over Indian Table on Court Street in Cobble Hill, a rather nondescript name for a wonderful restaurant. The dining room is dark and deep, boasting ornate geometric tiles, exposed beams, dangling brass light fixtures, and a teal-blue color scheme. The first dish to hit the table is a novelty in an Indian restaurant: Caldo verde ($8). Other satisfying appetizers abound — some from Goa, others from nearby regions or invented by the chef. But occasionally, some of his wilder experiments go awry such as the tower of beets called Kashmiri tikki." - Robert Sietsema
