Next level Indian food and concepts with excellent presentation. Waitstaff were very friendly and helpful with choices and also attentive. Menu choice is 3 or 4 courses or fixed tasting menu. Lots of menu choices for vegetarians - even though we eat meat. I would return again and bring friends.

We dined at Saar Indian Bistro before going to the Gershwin Theater. They had a $45 pre-theater menu that fit our needs perfectly. The food was excellent and the meal was served in time for us to get to the theater on time. We did not feel rushed at all. We absolutely would dine there again ourselves and recommend Saar Indian Bistro whether it's pre-theater or at another time.
