#4 in Fine dining#14 in Global#17 in Date night
What to get
- 8-course seasonal tasting in the Dining Room, or the 10-course menu at the Chef's Bar
- Signature chai with a nankhatai/semolina cookie to finish
- Pre-dinner cocktail in the Living Room (e.g., the seasonal gin and tonic)
When to go
Arrive early for a drink in the Living Room (opens 4:30 pm Thu–Sun); last seating is 8:30 pm.
Insider tip
The walk-in Living Room, with cocktails, snacks and a 4-course prix fixe, is a cheaper way in. Book the Chef's Bar if you want the longer menu and more interaction (Infatuation notes the format has shifted from two set seatings to staggered times).
Heads up
Pricey set menu (Eater cites $130–$150 before drinks); Infatuation says it now feels a bit less like the old intimate dinner party.
