Incredible service by the kind staff here at Muna. The food is cooked perfectly with lots of flavor. The cocktails especially were the highlight of my time; the mango lassi is to die for. Food: 5/5 Price: 4.5/5 Experience: 5/5

Craving some Indian food and a good deal? Then this is the spot for you! Muna has an all day prix-fix menu, which allows you to get an app, an entree and a side /dessert for less than $30/pp. If that's not a steal in midtown, idk what is! The portions were great and the service was wonderful! The staff were really friendly, attentive and welcoming. It's def one of my go to spots whenever I'm craving a dine in Indian food and in the area. What we ordered: Chicken Samosa Lamb Samosa Lamb Korma Chicken Tikka Masala Garlic Naan (Complimentary) Papadam

Chicken Samosa & Mango Lassi
Ariel Y.

Ordered from the All Day Pre-Fixe Menu - the Mango Lassi, Chicken Samosa, Chicken Tikka Masala and Garlic Naan. The Mango Lassi was creamy and delicious. The Chicken Samosa was good - a little spicy for me but the sauce complimented it well. The Chicken Tikka Masala was flavorful - the sauce was delicious and the chicken was well cooked. The Garlic Naan was just ok - wish it was a little fluffier.

Lamb Tikka Masala

Excellent choice for Indian food! We started with Lamb Samosa's which were very nicely prepared and had Lamb Tikka Masala, Chicken Tikka Masala and Butter Chicken for entrees - all excellent. The Garlic Naan for a side was also terrific. The entire staff was friendly and our server Sunita was very helpful and attentive. Highly recommend for Indian food in the Grand Central Station/Midtown East area.

This is my go-to spot for delicious, savory and reliable Indian cuisine. I order takeout from Muna at least once a week and it's equally as delicious as when you dine in. All of their curries have a wonderful umami with tender meat. I dine in or order food to-go from here confidently knowing the restaurant is super clean. The staff is so polite and kind and the if you choose to dine in, it's very peaceful with nice lighting.

So fun! 2 youngest kids weren't as excited since they hadn't had Indian food but our oldest loved it. Youngest ended up wiping his plate with his naan! Complementary Gulab Jamun (honey dumplings) but we weren't a fan. Very friendly staff! Clean and cozy environment.

All Day Special/Prix Fixe- Mango Kulfi. Tasty
Glenn C.

I went to this excellent new Indian restaurant a few days ago. They offer an "All Day Special" similar to Bengali Tiger on the west side but with a whole lot better food for $28.95 or a few bucks extra depending on your add-ons. This place has two floors with the bottom being more bar like and the top looking a bit nicer. The top area has their lunch buffet also though I presume people can sit downstairs as well. The staff was friendly. The All Day Special consists of three courses. It comes with an appetizer, a main, and either a bread or dessert. There wasn't papadum in the beginning but that was fine as we left plenty full. I'll be listing the price of the dish on the main menu (unsure if the portion is the same) but in terms of add-on, the lamb dishes cost $1.95 more, the fish/shrimp dishes cost $2.95 more, and the kulfi is also $2.95 more. My appetizer was the Lamb Samosa ($9.95) listed on the main menu as ground lamb filled in crispy pastry and fried on the main menu. This was outstanding. The lamb was well spiced and the samosa texture had some good softness and crunch. It was plated on top of two chutneys; mint and tamarind which worked well with it. I also tried the Pakora/onion fritters ($7.95) which had a nice light fry. These were also tasty and I would recommend them also even if I preferred the samosa. There was also a choice of veggie or chicken samosa as well as lentil soup. My main dish was the Chili or rather as listed on the menu "Chilli" Salmon ($25.95) listed simply as Spicy Salmon. The sauce as expected was the same as in Gobi/Cauliflower Manchurian which is a moderately spicy sauce with a smoky sweetness. I am happy that the sauce wasn't thickened too much. The salmon was very tender and of good quality. There was also some chopped green bell peppers instead as expected as well for the dish. Tasty as well overall. Another person got the shrimp version of the same dish which were bouncy. I tried the Lamb Curry ($22.95) listed as lamb with home-style masala sauce which was tasty also. The lamb was tender and the sauce was well flavored though not particularly spicy. The dishes came with rice which is a nice surprise as many spots in Midtown unfortunately charge now. They also gave us some Naan on the house which was tasty. Nice and hot and not too much ghee but still with a good texture. For dessert, I went with the Mango Kulfi ($7.95) listed as mango flavored Indian ice cream, almond, and pistachio. My preference is Carrot/Gajar ka halwa but it's not as common but this worked. This was a well flavored version with plenty of nuts mixed into it. Not the best I've had but certainly better than most other spots. I tried the Ras Malai someone ordered (I think this was a buck more also) which was a solid version. There was also a choice of Kheer/rice pudding as well as Gulab Jamun. This is an excellent new Indian spot with a reasonably priced and very well flavored prix fixe. It's not my favorite Indian food in the area but my preferred spot lacks said prix fixe so it's much more expensive (Chola) so it's nice to have a secondary option. Would go back and try more things such as the Nepalese stuff on the menu. Mid 4 for the deal/food.

Pano puri Mango Lassi Lentil Soup Chicken Samosa Soda

Okay the service here is SUPER friendly and the staff are so quick and kind! Good Indian music in the background, it's very peaceful and a great spot for dates or having dinner with the family. It wasn't packed at all on a Saturday night at 8pm so seems like a hole in the wall place despite having great reviews The food was decent but not my favorite Indian restaurant. Mango lassi is very tasty and creamy. The pani of the pani puri sucks though and isn't super flavorful (too much spice no balance). The lentil soup also doesn't have much flavor and has a thick consistency. I did enjoy the vegetable korma very much though although I asked for it to be spicier (3.5/5) Would come again though because they have a $30 special for one appetizer and entree!

My friend whose a regular here recommended this spot for a last minute dinner - we were both super hungry and had a craving for Indian/Nepali food we did the dinner special which is an app, entree, and side/dessert for $27 which is such a great deal!!! we were immediately greeted with kindness and seated which was great. the music was popin they were playin lofi indian music from one of my favorite bollywood movies! we ordered momos and pani puri to start (off the dinner menu) which was delicious - the momos tasted pretty authentic. i wish the pani puri had chutney inside but we were given side chutney which i added for the dinner special i got chicken samosa, chicken tikka masala, and kheer. the whole course came with a side of rice complimentary which was very nice. all the food was so delicious - i wish the chicken tikka masala was spicier but its a good level to cater to all. i tried some of my friends biryani and it hit all the spice levels and flavors overall very delicious and authentic - would recommend and come back!!!

Been coming to NYC for years and stay with family, well this year our family has moved back to the UK and it's just us. So arriving in town I really wanted to get some Indian food for dinner, but try something new. Muna was a 10 minute walk from our hotel, and it being a beautiful night in March it was perfect to walk over. What a lovely find! So lovely and they are very welcoming when you walk-in. Service was excellent and they understood we couldn't have leftovers being in a hotel, and were honest if this or that was large or to be shared. I wish we could have ordered more, so many things on the menu looks worth trying... I hope to come back with more people in tow sometime soon. This is a definite must to try as the food spice level was perfect and so flavorful.

What a gem! I've been to Indian Accent New Delhi and so was quite eager to try it out here in…read moreManhattan. However, we never really got to it, having been busy exploring the Semmas and Bungalows of the city. On a cold Saturday evening my partner and I decided to give Indian Accent a shot - got rather last minute reservations over the phone. They were kind enough to accommodate us for a 7 pm slot, and once we got there we were seated immediately. We chose the four course menu, and found each course to be better than the one before! The shorba (soup) and garlic kulcha amuse bouche was a nice touch to get things started - loved the tiny terracotta mugs. Proceeded onto the shakarkandi chaat and the chilly pork roti - the former reminding me of the delectable street food in Delhi winters with the latter being a very good Indian rif on birria tacos. The star of the show for me was the Tofu medu vada - so unique and flavorful and melt in the mouth! I've not had anything quite like it before. My partner had the wagyu kebab that he said was excellent! For mains we had the chicken malai and the paneer - both tasty, but by this point we were already so full, and had to get most of the mains to go. But because there's always room for dessert, for our final course we scarfed down doda barfi with ice-cream and sticky toffee banana pudding - both of which were finger licking delish! Our service was great too - Ty our server was so nice and had the best recommendations. I'd have never gone for the tofu medu vada among all the other options and he urged me to, and it really turned out to be the highlight of my meal. The cocktails were good too. All in all, I think this is such a nice upscale Indian dining spot for a night out in the city. Having tried most of the other trending newer spots, i think Indian Accent sits right among the top! I'd highly recommend and cannot wait to be back!

TLDR: Creative, modern Indian fusion dining with standout service and a fun prix fixe experience -…read moremixed dish hits, but worth it (get the butter chicken kulcha!!) I believe there are other Indian Accent locations in India, and was excited to try their NYC spot. We went on a weekend evening around 5pm and had a really enjoyable experience overall. Nice ambiance inside, didn't feel overly packed where we were sitting. Service was great for the most part. Shane, our main server, stood out and he was SUPER helpful in walking us through the menu and making thoughtful suggestions. That said, it's definitely a team-service setup, so multiple staff members will assist your table throughout the meal. Everyone had great energy and made the experience feel polished. We did the prix fixe menu and went with 3 courses each across our group of 3. Two of us opted for the "midis" and one went for dessert, but we ended up sharing everything. Even though the portions initially seem small, we were surprisingly full by the end. One important note: go into this with an open mindset. This is not your typical, "generic" Indian food experience - it's much more modern, creative, and experimental. We did a lot of research before deciding what to order, so here's what we got/ordered: Amuse bouche (complimentary): A pumpkin shorba (soup) served in a cute little cup and blue cheese naan. Both were a great start, and we actually asked for more of the shorba. They said they'd bring it, but it never came, which was a bit disappointing, but still appreciated the palate cleanser concept. Appetizers (ordered 3): * Phulka jackfruit: Kind of like a taco - really nice flavor with these crispies on it and a nice sauce. * Kashmiri morel mushrooms: I'm not usually a mushroom person, but this was excellent. Loved the creamy base and overall flavor. * Potato sphere chaat: Probably the weakest of the three. It was more sev than potato, and didn't quite hit for me. Midis (ordered 2): * Yogurt kebab: Very interesting texture with a nice chutney base * Sweet pickle pork: I didn't personally try it, but the other two in my group loved it Mains (ordered 3): * Sweet corn vadai: Really unique and flavorful - one of the standouts * Paneer kofta: Not my favorite; different from what I expected * Chicken tikka meatballs: Surprisingly good! I don't usually love meatballs, but these had a great texture and flavor Accompaniments (ordered 3): * Butter chicken kulcha: Easily my favorite - would come back just for this, but note it can be a little "greasy" * Daal with black garlic naan: The naan was unique with a slightly sweet taste; the daal could've used a bit more depth * Chana masala kulcha: A little spicy but still very flavorful Dessert (ordered 1 + 1 complimentary): * Banana sticky date cake: A lovely, satisfying end to the meal * Makhan malai (complimentary for a birthday in our group): Very airy and unique texture - not really for us personally, but appreciate the team supporting our birthday celebration We skipped drinks even though the menu is extensive - we wanted to focus on the food Overall, I really liked this place. The dishes were a mix - nothing was outright bad (except maybe the makhan malai for our taste), but not everything was a hit either. Still, it's a fun, elevated dining experience with creative takes on Indian cuisine. I'd definitely go back, especially for the butter chicken kulcha. Only real miss was the forgotten re-order of the amuse bouche, but otherwise service and vibes were strong.

A little corner of London magic right here in Hell's Kitchen!…read more If you've ever stood on a rainy London street, desperate for a bowl of proper Northern Indian food, you can stop romanticizing -- Jaz Indian Cuisine on Hell's Kitchen has that exact magic, and it's right here in Manhattan. The star of the show is Jaz herself -- the owner, hostess, and bartender all rolled into one wonderfully warm, charming British woman who somehow makes you feel like you've been a regular for years within thirty seconds of walking through the door. She's the kind of host who remembers how you like your chai and makes the whole room feel like her living room. Now, the food. The Chana Masala is deeply spiced, rich with tomato and chickpeas, the kind of dish that makes you question every mediocre version you've had before. The Saag is silky, fragrant, and genuinely soulful -- spinach that actually tastes like something. And the Onion Kulcha? Pillowy, caramelized, absolutely yummy -- the kind of bread you'll be tearing into long after you're full. The flavors here are the real thing -- bold, layered, and unapologetically authentic. This isn't watered-down, please-everyone Indian food. This is the genuine article, executed with care and a distinctly British-Indian sensibility that you rarely find outside of London. Every dish tastes like someone's nana's recipe, if that nana happened to be a brilliant chef. Do yourself a favor: add some spice to your life and get yourself to Jaz Indian Cuisine. Hell's Kitchen doesn't know how lucky it is.
