Kismat

I've been visiting Kismat for years now. I've always appreciated it's surroundings and authenticity. The food is really good and the spices and flavors are always so warm and welcoming. Being located in a very tightly knit area of Washington Heights I think it's fair to say its one of the best in the area. I highly recommend it to those looking for some authentic Indian food. Enjoy!!!

This is the kind of place that has developed a following of regulars, and you can feel it in the place. Very, everybody knows your name. If that's what you are looking for and you like Indian food, this is the place for you. The crowd seems to typically be 30+.

They have a long happy hour 1p to 8p week days. They also have a $20 brunch 11:30a to 3p on Sundays. Live jazz on Friday evenings.

Food is delicious! We go there when we want to treat ourselves to healthy, homemade quality, delicious food. Every entree comes with two small side dishes (lentil soup and cabbage) that are very nurturing. Happy hour is long and the appetizers are very tasty. I recommend papadum and chickpea dishes. The staff is attentive and kind. Service is very good. Hands down our favorite Indian restaurant in NYC.

We love this place but often call for take out delivery. Food is delicious, service is friendly and personable, love the cozy atmosphere and music on Friday nite. Just writing this makes me want to go back right away!
