Whether D.C. residents or out-of-towners, our reviewers agree about this Indian restaurant in the heart of Penn Quarter. Though Vikram Sunderam is a veteran of London's Bombay Brasserie, he left their classic Moghul style cuisine on the banks of the Thames and brought a more modern approach to this nation's capital. You start with "an out-of-this-world" Palaak chat and continue with delicacies like Coogi sweetbreads with balsamic vinegar and spiced quinoa or Sunderam's take on Japanese-style miso-marinated black cod, prepared with fresh dill, honey, star anise and red wine vinegar. There's a "cool wine list with lots of interesting choices." One reviewer ended his comments by saying, "I am going back soon, and you should go, too!"
