Indian Accent

We offer an inventive approach to Indian cuisine, where familiar flavours are reimagined for a progressive fine dining experience. Explore our tasting menus and creative bread bar, where every dish is a study in balance and innovation.

We believe in the perfect partnership between plate and glass. Here, a rich lamb shikampuri filled with boursin and wrapped in crisp urad dal kataifi is paired with a Mourvèdre-Viognier from South Africa. The wine's supple fruit notes beautifully complement the spice and texture of the dish.

We present our Kulfi cocktail, a nostalgic dessert reimagined as a sophisticated drink. This milk-clarified creation captures the essence of traditional kulfi, blending gin with the aromatic warmth of cardamom, saffron, and almond for a truly unique experience.

We are honored to receive the Wine Spectator’s Award of Excellence. This recognition is a testament to our commitment to building an exceptional wine program that thoughtfully pairs with the nuances of inventive Indian cuisine, guided by our Head of Wines, Kevin Ken Rodrigues.

Our Inverted Marigold Sour is a celebration of floral flavors. We use sous vide marigold vodka, fresh lime juice, and a delicate marigold syrup, topped with golden cadillac foam. The result is a bright, aromatic, and visually stunning cocktail.

Our cocktail menu offers a journey through four distinct moods. This collection features diverse flavor profiles, from the crisp Green Apple & Elderflower to the spicy Mango Chilli, the tropical Coconut & Pandan, and the herbaceous Guava & Basil, showcasing our creative range.

We elevate humble street food to a fine dining experience. A selection of aloo tikki, channa dal, and kothimbir vadi is paired with a glass of crisp Champagne. This pairing demonstrates how the right bubbles can cut through richness and enhance familiar flavors.

Our Daulat ki Chaat is an ethereal cloud of milk, saffron, and nuts, presented with a touch of theatre. This iconic dessert captures the magic we strive for in every dish, a fleeting moment of pure delight.

Our slow-braised lamb shank, so tender it falls off the bone, is served in a deeply layered sauce and paired with crisp lotus stem for a playful crunch. This dish is where texture meets depth, and tradition finds its modern table.

Who says street snacks can’t have a little sparkle? Our semolina puchkas, a beloved street food, are dressed for the occasion with five flavour-packed waters and a side of nostalgia, served with fine-dining elegance.

We take our breads seriously. Here, our fluffy mini naans are generously topped with freshly shaved black truffle, transforming a humble staple into a moment of pure luxury.

Our New Delhi restaurant is a sanctuary of light and silence. The glass-enclosed dining space is surrounded by a tranquil water feature, creating a serene backdrop for a memorable meal.

Even icons pause for Daulat ki Chaat. We were delighted to host Priyanka Chopra as she enjoyed one of our most iconic desserts, a moment that beautifully captures the joy our food brings.

For 13 consecutive years, we have been honoured to be on the Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants list. This recognition fuels our passion and our quest to keep pushing the boundaries of what Indian food can be.

My Story

Cooking, for us, is like chatting with old friends and new ideas. Our food is called 'inventive Indian' for a reason - we mix the comfort of home flavours with bits from our travels. Ever tried black garlic naan? It's like butter naan but with a twist, and our team pours heart into every dish. Awards are nice, but nothing beats seeing someone surprised by a familiar taste, made fresh.
