The food at Ishq was good, but the experience was disappointing. I went during Restaurant Week, only to find out after being seated that the special menu isn’t offered on Saturdays—something that isn’t mentioned anywhere on their website or the Restaurant Week site. That really should be made clear upfront!

Service was a bit chaotic. Our appetizers arrived before our drinks, and we were told it was because there’s only one bartender. Not ideal for a busy evening.

We also ran into an issue with drinks—we ordered Black Label ($17), but they were out. The server offered to switch it with Blue Label, but didn’t mention it was $55. I only realized when I asked to see the menu. That kind of price difference should definitely be communicated before substituting. (probably common knowledge but I wasn’t aware of the difference) Fortunately, I asked for the menu so didn’t end up going with the substitution.

Great food, but too many service missteps to overlook.

Went to Ishq on a Friday night at 10 PM. We made a reservation and we're running late but they were very welcoming nevertheless. The food was really tasty and we loved the jalebi Chaat, Andhra chilli gobhi and the paneer laung latta. The kala jamun tart was sweet but not too sweet! Overall we loved the placed!

Lamb boti is up there, would also highly recommend the lamb chops. Paratha and naan are very fresh as well. In terms of atmosphere, this is great in the evenings for dates, special occasions, or family get togethers. Service is incredible and staff are very kind.

I recently dined at ISHQ, and I must say, it was a delightful experience from start to finish. The service was exceptional; the staff was attentive without being intrusive, making sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal.

Now, let’s talk about the food. Each dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavors. The ingredients tasted fresh, and it was evident that a lot of care went into the preparation. I particularly enjoyed Himachali Gucci, which was cooked to perfection and chef special Dessert.

The inviting atmosphere and friendly service truly made the evening enjoyable. I highly recommend ISHQ to anyone looking for a fantastic dining experience! I will certainly be returning for another visit.

If you're looking for a place that proves vegetarian food can be bold, flavorful, and satisfying, ISHQ restaurant in NYC must visit. Generous portions ensured I left fully satisfied. The pricing was reasonable for the quality. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu, even suggesting Vegetarian option. The ambiance was cozy, with a warm feeling.
