Full description
Gymkhana takes the aesthetic of an old British-Indian sporting club — dark wood, ceiling fans, hunting-trophy details — and pairs it with an ambitious Indian menu that goes well beyond typical curry-house fare. Reviewers frequently mention it as a long-anticipated bucket-list booking that lives up to the hype, praising both the decor and attentive service by name.
