Embrace the comforting embrace of fragrant spices, and relish in a lavish dining experience at Saar - an exceptional creation led by Chef Hemant Mathur, a Michelin-Starred culinary artist, and praised by The New York Times. Painted with lively hues of turmeric, violet, and magenta, this modern interpretation of Indian gastronomy is nothing short of revolutionary.
Grab your $49 pulse (an $90 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.
Get lost in the deep, rich flavors of the Kashmiri Gucchi Truffle Risotto dotted with morels, wild mushrooms, garlic, & pea shoots, not to mention the refreshing Lemon Saffron Scallops grilled in a coconut basil sauce with peas upma.
If you crave something indulgent, let the sweetness of the Kaju Kulfi fill you with glee with its ensemble of Indian cashew ice cream, orange chocolate sauce, & tagmo chili chocolate crackle cookies.
Be it craft cocktails or a sommelier-selected glass of wine, raise a toast to a marvelous adventure...
Top notch ingredients, culinary brilliance, a sparkling scene - this is Saar! Helmed by Restauranteur, Owner, & Chef Hemant Mathur, "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 this beautiful jewel.
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 Chili In Puebla with mezcal, lime, pineapple, and green chili - 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 your new escape from the hustle & bustle...
