KIRA by Sunitha

KIRA by Sunitha is a modern Indian bistro serving small plates and sharing platters which are bursting with colour and flavour. It’s a relaxed dining experience with a parade of dishes and drinks arriving at the table rather than a starter-main-dessert set-up.

This lounge bar and restaurant also concentrates on cocktails and wine too, which have been carefully paired with the menu, to complement the complex spicing.

Chef Sunitha cooks a personal selection of seasonal dishes taking inspiration from across India in this, her first bricks-and-mortar restaurant after launching her popular food truck business. Sunitha’s modern Indian style has attracted rave reviews from The Hairy Bikers to The Guardian and The Sunday Times.

Typical dishes on the menu include parmesan thecha chaat fries, shahi malai kofta and coorgi pork and there’s a fine-dining element to the plating and some of the ingredients. The kali black garlic buttered scallop with pumpkin and spiced apple chutney is a winner.
