Fodor's Expert Review Azok

Shortly before Ziya stormed Mumbai's culinary world, renowned chef Vineet Bhatia, hailed for his experimental fine-dining Indian food, quietly opened this lower-key version of his revolutionary Indian restaurant. Perched on the rooftop of an apartment building, Azok may look like a lot of the other outdoor lounges in the city, but rooftop dining is a rare treat in Mumbai, and the food heralds the future of Indian cuisine. Try the mustard tempered stir-fried prawns with wasabi, the lamb biryani, and the chicken tikka with creamy red makhani curry over penne pasta.
