A polished ITC Grand Central dining room serving refined North Indian kebabs, curries and biryani, with generally excellent food and hospitality but genuinely high prices and occasional service or execution lapses.
Kebabs & Kurries delivers solid food quality anchored by consistently praised North Indian specialties like kebabs, dal, and paneer, supported by attentive service that keeps it performing reliably. The ITC Grand Central setting adds occasion appeal for celebrations and business dining, though occasional inconsistencies in execution and value perception prevent a stronger showing.
Kebabs & Kurries is a grand-hotel North Indian restaurant where the setting does some of the opening choreography: traditional greetings, impressive architecture and a calm, celebratory dining room. Reviewers describe it as especially comfortable for family occasions, business meals and team dinners, with one regular-style account calling the service polished and the atmosphere regal. The room is a destination within Parel, though its age shows in at least one returning diner's call for renovation. The cooking leans toward refined, traditional North Indian rather than experimental cuisine. Tandoor kebabs, lamb preparations, biryani and slow-cooked dals are the stars, and dishes such as Barrah Kebab, Murgh Angaar and Rarah Gosht receive particularly warm attention. The supplied menu confirms premium pricing, with most mains around ₹2,195-₹2,515 and the whole-leg Sikandri Raan at ₹3,345. That is a serious splurge, justified for many diners by technique, ingredients and hotel hospitality, but not by every visit: a few reports cite bland or overly rich food, a raw chicken piece, and an alarming dispute over an unlisted or unexpectedly priced rice dish. Families are welcome and the room handles celebrations and groups well, but this is not an easygoing children's comfort-food restaurant. The menu is dominated by lamb and chicken preparations, with breads such as kulcha and tandoori roti offering the safest familiar choices; the supplied menu does not show a children's menu, and one family found the rich, buttery food too heavy for their children. Parents should ask about mild preparations and current vegetarian options before booking.
The strongest orders center on tandoor kebabs, lamb curries, and biryani, with the Sikandri Raan reserved for a serious splurge.
