If the red velvet banquettes, dark brown wooden walls, and decorative accents didn't quite give it away, the menu's "swanky starters," "showstoppers," and "jazzy breads," certainly will. This place exudes that classic 1920s speakeasy vibe, albeit with a twist, as the menu spotlights contemporary Indian cuisine. Bollywood hits and jazz play in the background as you peruse the cocktail list for nods to bootlegging gangsters like Diamond Joe, a slightly sweet gin-champagne cocktail. Rogan Josh, a braised lamb shank with Kashmiri chilis that add subtle heat, is spot on. Fluffy basmati rice with yellow lentils and black mustard seeds is enhanced with coconut for a savory-sweet treat, and don't miss the creamy daal makhani with black lentils and a hint of heat.
