Super cozy, amazing food, beautiful decor, and good service. Order the garlic naan, the veggie samosas (some of the best I’ve ever had!), and the coconut chicken dish. The coconut shrimp curry is also incredible! Everything was delicious. It fills up (downstairs and upstairs) at dinner time so make a reservation if you’re going at a busy time. Good date spot! Feels fancy without being wayyy overly priced. Far better than your average Indian spot. Much more authentic and creative dishes.

Food was unexpectedly delicious. Not an extensive menu, but I really enjoyed the shrimp curry dish.

Excellent kebabs, especially the chicken: juicy, tender, charred just right and full of flavor. The Nawabi Murgh Tikka and Awadh Murgh Tikka kebabs were beautiful. We thought the Kakori lamb kebab wasn’t as good, but the spicing was very nice. Chicken biryani was pretty good too. Three kebab orders alone would be enough for a meal for two—they’re pretty substantial.

I am amazed at how unassuming the location is and how unbelievable the food itself is. This is some of the best Indian food you may ever eat. I had their paneer tikka masala, vegetable biryani, and garlic naan. Each was easily the best I’ve ever had at a restaurant. The paneer was perfectly cooked, with the sauce unbelievably smooth as if it was strained for perfect consistency. The flavors were bright, vibrant, and delicious. The garlic naan was fantastic. I always like a ton of garlic, and the garlic they put made it taste like the perfect naan. The vegetable biryani was the best part. It is cooked in a clay vessel with a naan/roti, covering the lid to seal all the flavor in as it is cooked. I was stunned at how aromatic, fluffy, and delicious this was. The restaurant also provided some raita (yogurt) and papadum (crispy snack) as well. Honestly, you are missing out if you do not come here and try this restaurant. Price is reasonable for New York (15 per dish).

Awadh is our go to for Indian food in the neighborhood. They recently painted the restaurant blue to match the outdoor seating area, which is a nice change and makes the restaurant really stand out when walking by. The food was delicious and the service was good.
