A Punjab-focused Indian restaurant in Mayfair, from the JKS restaurant group - owners of Trishna, Gymkhana, Kitchen Table, Sabor and Lyle's.

The first Indian in six years from JKS Restaurants. Named after the Sethis’ maternal grandfather, a former Indian Ambassador, the restaurant takes inspiration from his summer house in Dalhousie (formerly part of Punjab) and North India’s abandoned party mansions, as well as the founders’ own Punjabi heritage. Think classic Indian patterns to zingy contemporary prints. The 140-cover restaurant (replacing Momo's) is spilt over two floors and includes a veranda on Heddon Street and a ‘maximalist central bar with a gold dome’ in the main dining room. 

Culinary traditions and rare regional recipes are showcased with a menu featuring classic papads, chaats & bitings, lesser-known kebabs cooked across the tandoor, sigri and tawa; curries cooked in cast-iron karahis and clay matkas, pilaus, biryanis, tandoor-roasted breads, and classic desserts.
