Mirra is centered around the excitement of exploring the South Asian and Mexican culinary and collaboration that is really an unknown story up north.

A la carte service, wine-focused with a small curated cocktail menu. Our chef's counter will offer a casual prix fixe experience for guests to enjoy. Mirra is a space that is warm, cozy, and comforting, whilst simultaneously executing a bold and vibrant food and beverage program. Mirra is a unique representation of how 2 different cultures can be 1 presented to you by Rishi Kumar, Zubair Mohajir, and David Mor.

Everything was so refreshing yet spicy. So much flavor in every bite! Service was on point and all staff was extremely knowledgeable. Not to mention their take on a margarita was 100/10

I was really excited to try this place given the positive reviews I have seen. However, I found the food to be too salty for my (and my friend's) taste. We ordered the mezze, the crispy taco, the cauliflower salad, the octopus, and the bone marrow. I like the texture of the crispy taco the best but it was too salty. The other dishes were just mediocre. (The prawn dish looked really good but we didn't get to try it due to dietary restrictions.) The music was a bit loud so my friends and I couldn't hear each other all the time.

Boy oh boy, I wanted to love Mirra, had read good things about it. But we were disappointed. First, the greeter gave us a lukewarm welcome and walked us over to a counter at the bar. We reminded him that we had a TABLE reservation, so then he dryly remarked that he "found" us a table ??? The drinks: the Mirra Martini, a blend of gin, melon, and 2 other ingredients, was unusual, but seemed unbalanced. The wine list by the glass was lacking: most of the food here is spicy, and other than a sweet German wine there were no off-dry whites on the menu, and only 1 low tannin red (no pinot noir offered by the glass, instead they have syrah and cabernet???? Has the somm seen/tasted the food there?) The food: we ordered 5 different dishes, nothing was exceptional, and a few of the dishes were sooooo overspiced you could not taste the actual food. Oh and the crispy tacos...there is NO MENTION on the menu that the scallops in the tacos are ceviche/raw, which I avoid. Some of the other staff we encountered were not friendly, bordering on arrogant. The portions were small, and all were overpriced. I think the unusual combinations of ingredients and spices are attracting diners, but compared to other restaurants in this price range I can't recommend.

Every dish was thoughtfully curated, finding similarities in Indian and Mexican cuisine to make something new. Everything was delicious, beverages were paired great with the courses menu and chef came by to say hi to all guests!

Very good food — loved the Mexican Indian fusion. Drinks were potent — not diluted as at most places

We did the Chef’s counter experience and what an experience it was! Chef Rishi explained each dish with the same passion that he uses to create them. The mole that he has perfected over years is the best mole I’ve ever had, and I’ve eaten in Mexico. Can’t wait to go back and watch both Chef Zubair and Chef Rishi working their magic together!

Second time dining here in less than a month. The food and service are both outstanding. I can't recommend Mirra enough (food is somewhat spicy, fyi).
