Baazi•Upper West Side

Indian•$

Baazi is the newest venture and addition to 3 NYC critically acclaimed restaurants of celebrity Chef, Gaurav Anand. For many years, we have warmly welcomed the Upper West side community to savor in the delight of Indian cuisine from the motherland. At Baazi, you can encounter all walks of life clinking their glasses, sharing dishes & stories, and reveling in the joy of sharing a nostalgic culinary experience. The meaning of Baazi is to “bet”, and we thank you for betting on Baazi every time you choose to dine with us. In return, our promise is to always bet on you by pushing the bar and elevating our craft to give you 110% every single time. We unveil a new and improved menu featuring Baazi classics with a dash of modern flare. Beyond the crowded dining room, nestled in our humble kitchen, we house one of the largest South Asian spice markets in New York City. The secret lies in our care and attention to preparation, as our chefs blend ingredients, flavors, texture, and aromatics to create the extraordinary. Our desire to honor forgotten recipes while balancing technique is the backbone of our dining culture. Our Chefs, staff, and managers come from the deserts of Morocco, the seas of Goa, and the old streets of Delhi. No matter the region, language or religion, we are a family and one thing is for sure; we will ALWAYS bet on each other time and time again. We can't for you to dine with us!
