Chakra
Cuisine
in Beverly Hills
serves up modern
Indian fare in a
beautiful,
seductive,
romantic upscale
ambiance - with
a twist of Zen
hip.
Yes, it really
is all that and
a side of Naan.
First
impressions set
the tone; an
airy space with
hues of orange
and saffron, the
cool sounds of
the water wall
subtle in the
background,
fabric lanterns,
billowy
curtains, and
that is just the
main room. There
is also outdoor
dining, intimate
cabana style
seating amongst
Mandarin Orange
trees set off by
a large fire pit
to chase off the
chill. Or choose
the warm and
inviting bar,
perhaps
adjusting your
chakra by
choosing from
one of the seven
brightly colored
signature Chakratini's.
Any where you
choose to alight
and align
yourself, the
next phase of
your visit is
sure to be
delicious.
Because now you
will eat.
Feeling
traditional?
Many say the
Chicken Tikka
Masala is the
best in the
city. Something
new? Perhaps the
Masala Scallops,
or the Tandoori
Salmon would be
the way to go.
Fusing new
flavors with
classic dishes
is what they do
at Chakra, and
they do it well;
the menu is very
appealing and
very tasty. One
bite of the
Pomegranate
Tiger Prawns
with Curry Leaf
and you will
agree.
Everything about
Chakra is
delightful, and
that includes
the stellar
service too.
Owners Ravi and
Sunita Koneru
have created
something really
special here,
from the
creative cuisine
to the rich and
colorful palette
of the space, in
their own words,
not only a
culinary
journey, but a
cultural one as
well. No
adjustment
necessary, this
place is all out
fabulous just
the way it is.
