Indian fusion awaits at this Upper Kirby bar and restaurant. Everything from a traditional Jhinga Goan curry to Desi pizza and masala mussels, customers can nibble on their their favorite Indian bites while discovering new iterations of those traditional dishes. Also of note is the expansive list of craft beer in bottles and on draft. Cocktails are pricer but well worth your dollar-- it's a classic menu that's executed well.
There's a chance guests will need to valet, but it's a small price to pay for a visit to this little gem. Happy hour is 3-7 p.m., Tuesday through Friday with lots of cheap food options that are both filling and delectable.
