Fodor's Expert Review Semma

After the huge success of their other restaurants—Dhamaka on the Lower East Side and Adda in Long Island City—the owners gave an overhaul to their restaurant here, Rahi, changing the name and concept in late 2021. Semma serves Southern Indian fare to great glee from the hungry diners that pack this place on a nightly basis—and like its sibling Indian eateries, the focus here is on dishes that have not traveled much outside of India, plus nicely crafted cocktails using Indian spices and herbs.
