   Good food, serene ambience, excellent staff and service - everything for a premium price. Some guests can be too loud. But overall, must experience dining at Indian Accent.

   Phlip Roth once wrote this: "Words, being words, only approximate the real thing." That quote came back to me as I struggled to find the right words to describe dinner at Indian Accent. Words cannot do justice to the obviously thougtful and creative cooking that emerges, trailing the most tantalizing scents, from the kitchen as the dishes are expertly placed just so on one's table, to the fllod-the-zone (but quietly and without display) approach to service, or to the entire sensory experience of dining in an exquisitely understated space. But the one word that keeps coming back to me is--balance: the perfect balance of spices in each dish, especially the roasted lamb (so perfectly served in a purpose-built bento box with hot roti and four sauces) or the arbi shaami, with the heat underneath an impossible combination of sweet and savory tastes; and the eually perfect balance of flawless table service (one need not ever even raise a finger) without cloying attentiveness. Not to ignore the any of the other knock-your-socks off (but softly so) dishes that rounded out a not-to-be forgotten experience--the pulled pork or pulled jackfruit starters, the prawns, literally bursting with flavor, the dal with garlic so sweet it could have been dessert, or the magical baby potatoes. One does not eat at Indian Accent, one dines--and leissurely, but perfectly paced. Two hours goes by and time also stands incredibly still. To say that it is an experience not to be missed is, to return to Mr. Roth, wholly inadequate to describe that experience. It must be had to be fully understood and appreciated.

   Excellent service by restaurant and the food was amazing—the goat entree stood out more than others. Would go back to try the rest of the menu

   The first-course burrata chaat, crispy lotus root, and mustard-tomato jam were fantastic because they had a wonderful blend of spices. The second choice, uttapam with wild mushroom with the accompaniment of avocado and pomegranate raita, was also a great blend of flavors. The service and ambiance were top-notch. I highly recommend it.

   Not a traditional Indian Menu, as the name suggests there are Indian accents. We enjoyed every course, unusual flavours that mixed well, presentation was excellent and the staff were very attentive and knowledgeable about the dishes on the menu. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

    Got brunch! 3 course one with the dessert! Good service but not really elevated one! Burrata chat is different and can be definitely tried! Khichdi was nothing home to write about but decent! The uttappams were good. Highlight are a couple of deserts like the malai one. Overall good, I would recommend people to go to experience it one time!
