Good to know

Is it worth going out of your way for?: Yes, if you seek ambitious, technically precise Indian cooking. The Michelin star signals a kitchen that approaches spice with architectural discipline, a level of rigour uncommon in the region.
Who is it for?: It's for celebratory dinners, date nights, or business meals where formal service and a grand, dramatic setting are part of the appeal. Expect a fine-dining pace and price point.
What should you order?: Focus on the kitchen's signature preparations to understand its spice architecture: the Butter Chicken, Dal Makhani, and Lamb Chops are reliable entry points. The 24-spice onion xuixo is a clear demonstration of its layered approach.
How do you get a table?: Reservations are essential. Book online through the restaurant's website or a major reservation platform.
Anything to know before you go?: It's located inside the Galleria mall (Suite C-3500). The dining room is grand and occasionally loud, with dramatic lighting and arches evoking a Mughal-era hall.
