Description



Chef Hemant Mathur’s kitchen pairs regional Indian spices with modern twists. Table highlights include tender lamb chops, goat bhuna gosht, and freshly charred coconut and garlic naans. Inside, the small dining space combines understated lighting and 1920s decor with welcoming hospitality, though visitor notes reflect mixed feedback on portion value relative to its MICHELIN Guide recognition.
