The four of us had a wonderful experience at 1947. The food was amazing and our server was fabulous! We had 4 different dishes and 4 orders of naan! So good! The owner and the chef both came out to talk with us. We will definitely be returning here!

1947 Eatery and Lounge brings a modern take to traditional Indian cuisine. They offer some unique options alongside the classics—and everything we tried was bold, flavorful, and delicious.

The atmosphere is sleek and modern, with a full bar and a private dining room that can host up to 50 guests for business meetings or celebrations. Service was fast, attentive, and friendly. If you enjoy Indian food, 1947 is definitely worth checking out.

This is first time I came to this place. All I can say is this place is the best one so far I have tried in past 21 years. Chef Abhijit is amazing, Pooja and Patil took care of us. I will come to this place every week. I will recommend this place to everyone. If you want to try proper food and experienced best service then come here. If I can give them 10 start I would. Try food and dessert 🧁 you won’t be disappointed.
