Vajra is an Indian restaurant that offers a variety of flavorful dishes. The bhindi ka bhujiya, daal chawal, and Goan Shrimp Curry are popular choices, though the shrimp may be slightly overcooked. The Chicken Chettinad, Chicken Momo, and Garlic Naan are also available, with the Momo resembling soup dumplings and the Naan potentially losing softness during reheating. The Dilliwala Aalu Tikka and Vegetable Biryani are standout dishes. The Mango Mousse Cheesecake, with its sweet jelly mango layer, whipped cheesecake mousse, and graham cracker crust, is a delightful dessert option.
The restaurant has a spacious layout and provides a great dining experience, especially during the lunch buffet. Customers praise the excellent service and the mix of traditional Indian dishes alongside some Asian fusion options. The restaurant is a favorite among locals and visitors alike, with one customer describing it as "truly fantastic" and another calling it "one of the better Indian restaurants in the city." The restaurant's atmosphere is also noted, with one customer mentioning the "great date night vibes" in one part of the dining area and a "family-friendly feel" in the other.
