About Chef Prasad

When you taste Chef Prasad Chirnomula’s food, you know immediately that you are in the hands of an artist. Whether it is Indian cuisine or Mexican both critics and guests have grown to count on his consistently delectable and nuanced food. It was no exaggeration when the esteemed Rosengarten Report called him "...the most exciting Indian chef in the United States.” A The New York Times review celebrated Chef Prasad’s cuisine as "unusual, exciting, and so varied that I am never bored”. That is the crucial factor that has made him a superstar: his flavorful and creative dishes rise above the categories of “Indian” and “Mexican.” Chef Prasad Chirnomula is an international chef. Just as the United States is home to a melting pot of culinary traditions- so too is India, whose four regions each produce food distinct in its flavors and techniques. Chef Prasad has long hoped that eating at his restaurants will enlighten the palates of his guests to the subtleties and variations of flavor that India offers.

Rated 5.0 Some of the best saag paneer I have ever had. It was gone before I could snap a pic! The meat in the curries were so so tender and the sauces the best I have had. Great personalized service and wonderful atmosphere. I can’t wait to go back.

Rated 5.0 Ive eaten Indian food across the UK, NYC and CT. By a large margin, the food served here is easily my favorite experience so far. Cannot recommend enough.
