    This is the place I take all my vegan and non-vegan friends and family when they visit the city. The tasting menu with wine pairing is an awesome price for the quality and thoughtfulness of everything Hawker offers, I’ve never had someone not say it was at least in the top 5 best meals they’d ever had! The cocktails are also wonderful across the board

    This was our first dinner at Adrak Yorkville it was memorable - in a good way. The service and food was outstanding, especially the after dinner drink prepared at the table. We noticed that a lot of the other diners were Southeast Asian and we take that as a sign of authentic Indian cuisine. As it's within walking distance, it will become one of our go-to restaurants.
