Saar Indian Bistro New York City

I went to this new restaurant last night and couldn't believe how good it was. I like Indian food, but was not expecting it to be THIS delicious so I was pleasantly surprised. First of all, when I walked in, the decor stood out as being so different, elegant, modern yet classic all at the same time. Beautifully painted walls and the seating is so much better than other places here in the city. They have several of these booths surrounding the tables and I was lucky enough to get one of those. They have a full bar with great drinks so I was in no rush to leave. Unfortunately I had eaten not that long ago so only ordered a couple small dishes, but besides being large enough to fill me up, they were DELICIOUS!!! I had the "Begun Bharta," which was honestly the best eggplant I've ever had. It was smoked and just had an incredible flavor. It also came with several roti chips to dip in there and I finished every last one. (My mouth wanted another one, but my stomach was already getting full from the size of it.) I def can't wait to order that again though!! I also had the "Aloo Gobi," which was a garam masala with potato and cauliflower. I love cauliflower and always have, but this was cooked and flavored so perfectly! Just a slight kick, but intense flavor and will def be ordering that again. The side of naan bread I got with some yogurt sauce to dip in was also phenomenal. Bread was warm and sweet and I've tried so many diff yogurt sauces from other places, but this one had the best flavor! Can't wait to try everything else. Service was quick too. The owners even came over to introduce themselves and make sure everything was ok. I guess since this restaurant is still new, they are prob trying to meet each of their customers, which showed me they cared. I'll def be back and so looking forward to it!!!

What a fab place
