"Pendant lights strung with thick grass ropes, vintage mirrors, and a gleaming white marble bar set a sophisticated tone at this long-standing Indian restaurant. With an eye for presentation and a taste for new ideas, the menu offers a range of dishes. Tuna puchka brings three bite-sized semolina puffs tucked with finely diced raw tuna topped with a dollop of caviar. The tomato-based tile fish Assamese curry offers a delicious spice journey with gentle heat and notes of cilantro. Meanwhile, savory dal makhani calls for a house-spiced naan. To finish, a bright Madras curry-scented whipped cream infused with condensed milk makes for a proper send-off." - Michelin Inspector

"Featuring a series of spaces (the front area is primarily suited for a bite and bevy), the reprized décor flaunts pendant lights strung with thick grass ropes, vintage mirrors, and a gleaming white marble bar." - MICHELIN Guide
