Coach House, 2x James Beard Award and Jean Banchet Award-nominated Chef Zubair's Mohajir’s latest venture, is a Tasting Menu experience featuring a heavy dose of South Indian flavors whilst avoiding direct tradition. Coach House is located in the rear of Lilac Tiger's street food location, on Division St.

Our 7-course Tasting Menu rotates seasonally, and is featured on Friday and Saturday nights at 5:45pm and 8:30pm; this experience gives insight into the culinary traditions that Chef Zubair was raised with, reimagined through a modern lens.

Your experience can be supplemented with one of our thoughtfully-curated wine and cocktail pairings, or you and your guests can select your sipper from our worldly wine list, elegant cocktails, and vibrant and non-alcoholic signature drinks.

    Tasting menu and wine pairings - loved the duck, scallop and crab and enjoyed all the drinks that went along with the experience. Adored the bit by the sous chef engaging us with the nostalgic theme throughout the evening. Wonderful night.

    The valentines day tasting menu w/cocktail pairing was an incredible journey into South Indian cuisine. Chef Zubair takes you on a culinary cultural tour of his upbringing with a undertone of his fine dining journey as well. The cocktails were immaculately crafted for each dish, and we both enjoyed the side quest of learning about the different cocktails. We will definitely return to Coach House.

    The Coach House provides invariably inventive and unusual riffs on South Asian cuisine in an informal setting. We have visited several times -- some dishes remain constant, but most are new. Each dish in the tasing menu is more surprising and interesting than the last.
