Inspired by one of the earliest civilizations in ancient history, the Indus Valley, the Indian fine dining concept will honor creating food for pleasure rather than simply sustenance, as the Indus people pioneered by being one of the first to blend and combine spices for flavoring.

    The food at Indus was delicious and did not disappoint, and the cocktails were also creative and delicious. However, the service was very slow and the acoustics were not great. It was very loud and it was difficult to carry on a conversation without raising your voice. Overall a good dining experience and we would go back for the great food.

    Amazingly delicious food with great presentation. Biryani and Pan Ice cream was to die for ! Ambience can use some upgrade - may be dimmed lights, with spacing between tables. Had an oldish decor.
