About this business

The term Nirvana refers to the attainment of a sublime state of mind, and the culinary exploits at this contemporary Indian eatery certainly come close to providing that blissful experience. The menu at Nirvana offers a wide range of Indian fare which is an eclectic mix of traditional Indian dishes like vegetable samosas, Raj Kachori, shrimp bhuna, paneer makhanwala, and more exotic fare like Nirva Rabbit Fiesta and Venison Old Monk which are not usually found on Indian menus. The upper level of Nirvana is devoted to the din... read more

Better than the Rest by Far – I've had a lot of Indian food in New York and I have to say this place stands out. Food is far from ordinary and you just can't the dishes you get here anywhere else. It's a real treat. The bartender remembered my drink when I came back! It's a very special place.

Amazing Buffet – I dropped in here during a lunch break to meet a friend. Very convenient location to all Manhattan neighborhoods. We ended up staying for a long time enjoying all the the wonderful breads, curries, and desserts at the buffet. In fact, the manager was nice enough to recommend some wine to go with the fish curry (my favorite) and it was a great relaxing meal. I think the best thing about the meals is the abundance of different breads and rices really allows you to taste things you've tasted before in new ways.... read more

Mouth WATERING food!!!!! – I went here for my friends anniversary dinner party and had an incredible dinner. The food is delicious, we had the tandoori seekh kebabs, and they even brought us an extra serving because they thought the initial serving was too small (although we were stuffed!) The staff was very nice and helped us celebrate our special day. The ambience is very romantic and it made our day. Can't wait to go back and I definitely recommend this place!

Nirvana leaves much to be desired – Well, I wish I could say something really good about this place, but I am sorry to confess- I was really disappointed. I came there with my husband to have a romantic dinner. I was sure it would be as nice as it was two years ago-when the guys just opened the business...But I was mistaken-now the place seems to be more like a fast food restaurant with low and slow service. Too loud, too crowded, the waiter (I think it was the manager, because he was in a shirt and a tie)was gloomy and igno... read more

Fraud! – Food was good, but not for the price. The place is dishonest. We came with a food "coupon" that we paid for and was told we could not use it since our reservation was made on OpenTable. This was not printed or disclosed anywhere. That reeks of fraud and dishonesty.

Fantastic buffet and a la carte choices in Midtown – I have been to this restaurant four times already times, and each time I have been with an eclectic crowd of varying tastes, and Nirvana has delivered on every occasion! Firstly, the restaurant has a wonderful modern asian ambiance. The restaurant is by no means small but the seating still manages to be very intimate. The staff is attentive and the house cocktails were very good. My favorite entrees are Fish Moilee and Tandoori Lamb Chops. In appetizers, the Lamb Potato Cr... read more

Not only a restaurant but also a bar – Nirvana serves some of the best Indian food in Nyc. Must try the mouth watering rosemary malai chicken, the nalli ghost which is a supple soft lamb shank and the indulgent golab jamun. Nirvana, not your typical Indian restaurant, it is the perfect blend of east meets west while keeping its authenticity. The bar downs stairs is a great finish to a great dinner. A chilled lounge with delicious cocktails and fabulous bar stuff.
