We enjoyed the vegetable samosas, but it went downhill after that. The food is uninspired, and some dishes left the impression on us that they were prepared hours in advance. Also, it's yet another UES restaurant that doesn't put money into their space to create a very nice environment. You feel like a poor person when you eat here. We won't go back.

Can't ask for anything more when dining out, good food, pleasant ambiance and friendly staff.

After seeing the great reviews, I was shocked by the food I received. The sauce of the chicken tikka masala was watery and tasteless. The kheer had the consistency of scrambled eggs. Even the naan, which I assumed couldn’t be messed up, had no taste. Skip this one.

Great restaurant for amazing and flavorful Indian food in the Upper East Side. The food itself is excellent. I particularly recommend the butter chicken, as the chicken is perfectly cooked and the gravy is delicious. Likewise, the atmosphere is amazing, with a sleek and modern design with traditional Indian paintings and designs scattered around, masterfully blending Indian culture and modernity in an elegant way. However, the service is subpar. It took over an hour to get our food. For this, I must take away one star, but overall, this place is a great spot for authentic Indian cuisine—if you don’t mind the wait.

We live in the Upper East Side and this is one of our go-to places. The food is just amazing, and the service is always very welcoming.
We came here for the lunch special deal and were so happy. It’s $17.95 for an appetizer, main dish, dal of the day, rice, and naan. They charge $1 extra for chaining the type of bread you want but I think that’s reasonable and worth it.
Ambiance: They have a nice and comfortable set up with plenty of seating. It’s a cute cozy local spot.
Food: I got the sweet and sour cauliflower as the appetizer and my husband got the aloo tiki. The cauliflower came out crispy but did get soggy half way in. The sauce also was a bit more sour than sweet and I think just needed a little more balance. The aloo tiki was spot on and was a flavorful. The combination of chutneys and spices was a perfect blend.
As our main course: I got the OM Daal and it was delicious. The lentils were perfectly cooked and not soggy and the daal was well seasoned. I also really liked the balance of spices. The second entree we got was the Saag Aloo. This dish was also really nice and well seasoned. They did a great job blending the two. The dal of the day was a tadka yellow dal, it tasted like a nice home cooked dal. The naan came out fresh and was a big portion size and they gave a small serving of rice.
Service: They were really nice and accommodating. Food came out fast and they checked in often to make sure we had everything we needed.
Overall, I think this was really good and authentic Indian food and I would recommend it.

Om is reliable and consistently. Excellent! We particularly enjoy the Om special when we have food delivered. Dining in is also quite nice. It’s not the most elegant setting, but the service is nice, they have a bar, and this food is outstanding.
