Ordering Strategy
Order a mix of their famous slow-cooked stews (haleem and nihaari) alongside homestyle vegetable and meat dishes like bhindi gosht or aloo qeema, and soak it all up with plenty of kulcha naan.
What to order
Haleem
A glossy, rich, and deeply earthy slow-cooked barley and lamb dish best mopped up with fluffy kulcha naan.
Nihaari
The restaurant's namesake is a velvety, slow-cooked lamb stew shimmering with ghee and the gentle heat of ginger.
Bhindi Gosht
A lesser-seen homestyle comfort dish featuring beautifully tender, stewed okra cooked with your choice of lamb or chicken.

Good to know
The bright lighting and sparse decor quickly give way to incredibly warm hospitality. It gets loud and busy with large families, so book ahead if you want to snag one of the comfortable red booths.
