Rakesh TondonJanuary 23, 2017Awesome experience at this great new Indian restaurant in an upscale environment. their food quality and service are both amazing and liked all the interesting options and their modern take on food.
Srikanth RajuDecember 20, 2016Pani Puri/GolGappa is fast becoming the must-offer in new hipster indian places. Remember to request for an additional plate of puris :)
Rak TondonDecember 5, 2016Amazing cocktail list. My favorite was their JRD Tata sour and the Royal Bombay yacht club. Also their food organic. Loved their fish entree which so light and beautiful and loved their small plates.
Chris MessinaDecember 24, 2016The Palak Chaat is... incredible. It's like kale chips but hot and lightly greasy (in a good way) and very delicious. Couldn't keep people's forks out of it!
- Rakesh TondonFebruary 8, 2017Literally the best champagne collection of any Indian restaurant. I've been 4 times and loved every thing every single time. Also love their lamb chop and really love their paalak chaat and pork ribs.
Elena HoffmanMarch 20, 2017I have nothing but high praise for this restaurant. Authentic Indian food you could get at the markets there, with some extra flair and taste. You can get a ton of starters and just fill yourself up!
Odile RoujolNovember 10, 2016Would you like a glass of wine or a cocktail. Experience modern Indian cuisine. Hetal Shah is a very talented female founder and we enjoyed being at the opening event !
SFebruary 11, 2017Maybe the best fusion indian in SF. Food is amazing in its own right. Don't expect your usual curries and naans here. They've really redefined my knowledge of Indian cuisine
Bikash MishraFebruary 17, 2017The bison keema pav is excellent & unique. Palak chaat is tasty but a take on pakoras. The biryani was a bit of a let down. The Patiala Peg was delicious. Overall, keep expectations in check.
Katerina KuvOctober 22, 2018Busy atmosphere, amazing place for dinner before Opera. Good bartenders, delicious food and good wine card. Highly recommend
- Odile RoujolSeptember 2, 2018Excellent Indian food. My Indian friends in San Francisco are proud of this restaurant and believe me it means something !
- Rakesh TondonOctober 21, 2017Love the brunch here. Amazing poori aloo and shrimp pongal. Definitely a must for an SF brunch that's different
Jacob GyllenstiernaMay 18, 2019Great spot before a show in the area. Excellent creative cocktails. The palak chaat, paneer kebab and lamp chop were all delicious.
Megan AllisonMarch 27, 2018Great cocktails - get the Jaipur Emerald for an Indian Mai Tai vibe. Paneer appetizer and lamb biryani like 👌. Nice space, good location.- Odile RoujolNovember 10, 2016Amazing decor and awesome modern Indian cuisine. Perfect place for a drink and a party with friends
Brian LJanuary 12, 2020Modern gourmet spin on classic Indian flavors. Also a cocktail served in a light bulb!
- Rakesh TondonOctober 21, 2017Seabass is amazing. As is their goat biryani. The vegetarian options are amazing such as their mushroo
Roshan SadananiNovember 8, 2017The first time I’ve enjoyed modern / fusion Indian. The pani puri flavors are super unique and delicious. Love the cocktail names too!- Chris MessinaDecember 24, 2016The PK Negroni is a very good, not-too-sweet-with-a-hint-of-coconut spin on the negroni.
Eric PanDecember 21, 2016weekdays from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. For now, it’s a cocktail of the week for $8, select draft beers for $5, and select glasses of wine for $5
Pavan KulkarniFebruary 12, 2017Very classy ambiance. The papal chaat was decent but pepper chicken and chicken biriyani were really good. J R D Tata sour cocktail is good too.
Aditi MishraJanuary 7, 2017All of the chaat options are stunning and delicious. Palak chaat was very innovative. However given the portion sizes, the food is pretty expensive.
NanaApril 19, 2017Pretty neat concept and a new take on Indian food. Everything on the menu was quite good. The paneer was very tasty
J TMarch 12, 2018Fantastic presentation, and extremely well done flavors. Don't miss the spinach chaat.
Gayle MacciaMarch 17, 2019Guppa is great and so are tandoor prawns. Most others were ok. Very thought out menu but lacks flavor in the way you expect Indian food to be.
SF's best for fusion Indian. Excellent flavours and presentation.
Inshiya MukadamMarch 27, 2018Cucumber filled Gol gappas, polenta and haldi cocktails served in a lightbulb
