From our BEST new restaurants of the decade feature:
Let me preface this by saying I seriously mourned the loss of Escobar’s. It was a favorite date night spot, and their sangria was something to cherish. However, I have been very pleased by what Kohinoor brings to the table, so to speak. They haven’t done much with the decor; it’s basically Indian food served in the shell of Escobar’s, but that’s fine. The food is consistently delicious, and served in generous portions. Every time I’ve dined there the service has been great. Everyone we’ve encountered in very kind and genuinely glad that you’re there, and on more than one occasion we’ve been treated to a complimentary sweet tidbit from the kitchen. The menu is expansive, fulfilling all of your masala, paneer, saag, and biryani needs while giving you plenty of options for exploring. And also naan. All the naan. (JM)
