    My experience here was beyond wonderful. Perfect actual a dream dining experience from head to toe / beginning to end. The staff is amazing and is what will have me coming back they took exceptional care of me through and through and I am so grateful. Will is the best most earnest and amazing bartender in the whole Wide world and I loved Will’s kindness and conversation as well as the drink Will Made me!!! Delish . My waiter was incredible I forgot how to spell his name or else I’d be typing it out ! Everyone was great I will Definitely bring everyone that comes to NYC here and am excited to do so. The food was to die for. The chilli toast had me crying it was so good - especially after a cocktail they are generous with the alcohol in that regard and every other. Let me talk about the dark chocolate cricket ball dessert and I say this with full Confidence. It was the absolute best dessert I have had in my entire life and I will dream of it every night after this !

    I came here on a Saturday early evening, and they still have happy hour drinks pricing available. I got a winter chocolate martini. It was nice, with chocolatey/coffeey flavor, and a chocolate stick. I also ordered crispy okra and vegetable samosa to start dinner. The crispy okra was very thinly sliced, deep fried okra. It was indeed very crispy. The flavor was nice, too. It was cooked perfectly, it wasn’t greasy or burnt at all. It was very nice. The vegetable samosas were nice, too. There were 5 pieces of samosas in one place. They were the smallest samosas I’ve ever seen. The flavor was nice as well, but was a bit bland. There were potatoes and peas inside. I wish there were more flavors to it. For the main course, I got KASHMIRI SAFFRON LAMB. On the menu,it’s under the section of the copper pot, but it was served in a small regular porcelain bowl. The flavor was nice, but also wasn’t pungent enough. The lamb shank chunks were a bit dry. It wasn’t as tender as I expected. The ginger slices on the top was a nice touch. It came with butter naan. The naan was baked perfectly, but again, small. It paired well with the curry. The whole meal was nice, but I would call it an Indian fusion, and not Indian. The foods were nice, but I just wish they could add more spices and make it more spicy. In addition, the portions of the dishes were small. It’s a great place for someone who’s trying Indian food for the first time. The decoration was fun! The servers were nice and friendly. Nice and clean restaurant.

    Absolutely amazing dining experience. Authentic Indian flavors served in an upscale fashion. Everything here is perfect- from the service, to the food and even the cocktails, and let me just say, they do not skimp on the liquor! The desserts were Michelin worthy. Will definitely be back!

    I love this place. I had the lamb vindaloo. Very spicy and delicious served w naan. Had a white wine and to finish a bartender created calvados mixed with BnB. Outstanding service, food, and vibe. The bartender and staff are all in suit and tieu’s looking stylish and harkening back to the old days. Love it. My fave Indian restaurant in NYC.
