Cozy up to aromatic spices, and devour indulgently at Saar - a visionary's masterpiece helmed by Michelin-Starred Chef Hemant Mathur, and critically acclaimed by The New York Times. In vibrant shades of turmeric, violet, and magenta, this contemporary rendition of Indian cuisine is transformative, to say the least.
Grab your $49 pulse (an $89 value) for a 3 Course Dinner For Two that invites curious palates and ravenous appetites alike to devour 1 Small Plate, 1 Large Plate, 1 Dessert and 2 Cocktails, Wines or Beers.
Chef Hemant Mathur's applause includes making GQ Magazine's list of "Top Indian Chefs in the USA," with NY Times critic Sam Sifton expressing that "no one in New York makes lamb chops like Chef Hemant Mathur," in regards to the iconic Tandoori-style Colorado Lamb Chops crowned in ferrari potatoes, peanuts, and spiced pineapple chutney.
Other standouts include the Kashmiri Gucchi Truffle Risotto (morels, wild mushrooms, garlic, pea shoots), as well as the Lemon Saffron Scallops grilled in a coconut basil sauce with peas upma - and lest we forget dessert, namely the Kaju Kulfi (Indian cashew ice cream, orange chocolate sauce, tagmo chili chocolate crackle cookies).
As this charming haven makes you feel at home, sip on a few glasses of red, or take in some bubbly brews, both adding luxurious flair to an unforgettable feast...
"If there’s a creative force behind New York’s trending Indian restaurant scene, it’s Hemant Mathur," proclaims the Michelin Guide in reference to Restauranteur, Owner, & Chef Hemant Mathur and his most modern enterprise, Saar.
The 2-time Michelin Starred mastermind (Devi, Tulsi) has funneled his talents into Midtown treasure, Saar - which translates to "essence of something" in Hindi. The interiors are adorned in bright pinks and aqua blues to mirror Mathur’s hometown of Jaipur, also referred to as “the pink city.”
Cauliflower Latkes spiced with green chili & ginger and topped in cranberry chutney precede delectable plates of Tandoori Tiger Shrimp & Kitchri (cilantro-tamarind glazed tiger shrimp, rice & lentil porridge, lemon chutney), in addition to milk-poached crispy New Zealand lamb ribs, known as Kashmiri Kabargah.
Relish a glass of fine wine from Saar's curated list, or tuck into a Saar Bourbon Sour layered in Bulleit bourbon, homemade lemon chutney, candied lemons and a sugar rim - enjoying the final sips over the Shahi Tukra or "Emperor's Morsel" dessert, a delicately crispy brioche dotted with saffron, milk, and candied almonds.
Refined, elegant, and elevated in every way, dinner at Saar is more of a journey than just a meal - and your new escape from the hustle & bustle...
