A decadent and delicious birthday dinner! Everything was amazing and flavorful. Favorites were the butter chicken experience, palak paneer, and the pani puri.

Excellent experience and wonderful staff. Very well deserving of their Michelin Star. BIG THANK YOU TO YARETZY for the wonderful service/history/recommendations. We hope to get her again!
My husband and I agree that this is by far the best restaurant we’ve ever been too. We’re foodies so we’ve had our fair share of delicious food and great service but this place takes the cake. Special shoutout to Roshi, Enrique & Khadijah. Excellent excellent service. Our experience couldn’t have went any better. Kisses to the chef.

Desserts are the best. Our favorites in order are- mishti doi, peach and gulab. Some of the veggie appetizers are great- paneer, chena dahi vada chaat and lychee ceviche. DO NOT get veg seekh kabab- its just impossible burger in a different shape. Most vegetarian main courses are meh. Sev tamatar was good.
We had an incredible dinner at Musaafer. Every dish was exceptional, but the highlights for us were the seekh kebab and the dum ki ribs, both perfectly cooked and deeply flavorful. The kela kofta and lamb rizala were rich, nuanced, and …

My wife and I recently experienced their 12 course tasting menu and it as fantastic. Everything about it was great with the exception of where they sat us.
