This place was really fun. We had it (and the nice starry moonlit sky) all to ourselves on a Wednesday night. Which is a shame! More people should be coming here!Achari mushroom appetizer was a great start with a little spice.After a brief chat with the owner who told us about the history and where they source food and spices my wife and I shared the paneer makhini and Pandara Road Wala butter chicken. Both were so excellent we forgot to get any photos ?A+, will come back again.

Varun and Ankit were amazing!!! They treated us with such respect and we felt so welcomed when we came in. The food was so fresh we cleaned our plates clean. They told us it would take a second because everything was made from scratch. And even then it wasn’t long at all. Food was soooo worth it, I got the tandoori chicken. Was so tender and fell apart so easily. The flavor and spice was amazing and to your spice level.
This is the best Indian food in the east village. I cannot recommend this enough. The service is also fantastic. They once forgot to include one of our appetizers once, so when we called to ask, they offered to drive it all the way for free.They have a customer for life.Vegetarian options: My girlfriend is Vegan, while I am not. So it's perfect for date night in the city.Dietary restrictions: They have a fantastic vegan and vegetarian menu.
Authentic Indian food. Uses authentic spices and fresh food with amazing service.

This place feels like home! My friend and I have become a regular here. It is the best Indian restaurant I’ve had in the city. They have an incredibly long menu, for vegan and vegetarian and non veg, with all types of authentic Indian dishes - my personal favorite is the Malai Kofta. The servers always welcome us in and give us the best recommendations. I can’t wait to go back again ?

Red Onion is truly a culinary delight! 7?for you guys!Recommended by a friend, my parents and I had the best food with rich flavors of Rajasthani spices in their Goat Biryani and Lamb Chops. The cocktails, especially my favorite village trip was just so perfect with the meal, making it truly the best dining experience! I would definitely recommend my friends to come here! cheers ?
Red Onion was amazing, we decided to do pick up and got the paneer makhani and daal makhani. Both were great but especially the dal, it was some of the best daal I’ve had in the city.

Great authentic Indian food with rich flavors. The owner, Varun, is very nice and helpful in suggesting dishes. A taste of home! Been here twice now and not disappointed.
