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

Great experience – Dining area is in the upstairs of the restaurant, with a nice lounging area in the downstairs/entrance level. I was there for dinner with a friend. The service was very attentive, with the manager (owner?) coming over to check on us during our meal. Food was very well prepared, with the spices just right. The tandoori chicken seemed a bit dry, but the spices/sauce and other dishes were near perfect and made up for it. Overall a very pleasant dining experience. Would make a great spot to bring a date too.

Five stars all around – We had lunch at Nirvana and it was, by far, the best Indian food. In addition, the service was truly excellent. Really top notch! We are vegans and so our waiter helped us make selections from the menu and also made substitutions where appropriate. The restaurant is very cozy and the atmosphere was buzzing with other customers enjoying their lunch as well. Definitely worth the visit!

Delightful and Amazing! – Oh my goodness, I absolutely love this restaurant. It is very important to us that when we eat out (especially now) that we choose a place that you have a good combo; good food, good service and the feeling of warmth and welcome! Thank you for making us happy. Can't wait to return. I am planning to have a girls night here and a special party for my boss that is retiring! You guys are really fantastic.

Exquiste Indian Food – We first dined in Nirvana about 2 months ago and have been there 5 times since! . By far, the best Indian food I have had in the city. Everthing about this place is perfect, starting with its location, but my favorites were in the appetizer menu - truly delicious. Do try the malai lamb, which I would rate as the best. The ambience of the place is very calming and relaxing, with a lounge in the ground floor and a comfortabe and stlishly done up upper floor for dining. The staff are very friendly and pro... read more

A Must to Experience - If you are impressed with Excellence! – I decided to use this restaurant to cater my New Year's Eve party. Their website and philosophy first impressed me. Then I met the owner Anil. He really understands the meaning of service and excellence. I looked around and the place is beautifully decorated. I can't wait to eat in. Nirvana's food is exquistie Indian cuisine. My guest went on and on about how good the food was. When I came to pick up the food it was freshly prepared and packed, then at least thre... read more

Nirvana made my would have been 'dull' christmas eve a Night to Remember. Stumbled upon this place whch looked fancy and new, as I was strolling by the neighborhood. Entered in and was greeted and treated special. I had a few glasses of wine, the staff were so friendly and charming it made me feel so comfortable. I had their lamb potato croquettes and rosemary malai kabab for appetizers and then Lamb Nalli gosht for dinner with nan. The best word to describe my entire experience is "DIVINE". All the best Nirvana.

A place to visit again – Last night I went to this restaurant after reading a few reviews on City Search and Yelp and I found this place live up to all those reviews. The food was very delicious and in my opinion does rank at the top. The place in itself was very trendy with a cozy lounge on the ground floor and a high scale dining place on the first. I ordered their fish and just loved it. It was really soft and was flavorful. Spices were perfect and the texture was appropriate.

Cold Plates – The food was delicious, but the plates were ice cold, so dinner soon became cold & less appetizing. The service was at best sporadic & the waiter brought the wrong bottle of wine chosen from the wine list by our host.

Amazing Food – The top three reasons I go to this place again would be : 1. Food, 2. Food, 3. Food. The quality and the taste of the food I found at this place is rare to find at other Indian restaurants
