From the moment we arrived, we were completely captivated. and the place was setting a high standard right away. The ambiance exudes creativity and modernity, with eye-catching wall art, a vibrant bar setting, and tigers reminiscent of the restaurant’s name all contributing to a unique dining atmosphere. The designer menu was an exciting prelude to the meal that awaited. The drinks menu was a mixed bag; while the spiked lassi didn't hit the mark for us, the citrus-based cocktails were absolutely phenomenal, bursting with flavor. As for the food, it was impressively presented and delicious. While the dishes leaned more towards fusion than traditional authenticity, each plate was a testament to culinary creativity. The cauliflower starter was notably spicy and delightful. The slider represented a typical modern fusion approach—tasty and satisfying. The dosa and samosa were nicely executed and probably the most authentic. The naan filled with apricot was the most polarizing dish, a true "love it or hate it" experience. We found it to be a creative and special addition to the meal, although it might not be for everyone. Nonetheless, we appreciate the innovation and boldness in their menu choices. Overall, this restaurant offers a fresh and artistic take on Indian street food that is both engaging and enjoyable and a memorable culinary adventure.

I had Sherakaan for the first time today and I enjoyed it a lot. The tandoor salmon was amazing and the cabbage salad was a perfect side to go with it and I enjoyed it a lot. I tried the speciality drink for New Year’s Eve and it was fantastic it was the perfect balances between the plum and spices that were used. I can’t wait to come back.

Delicious, flavorful food. Very friendly and very accommodating staff. Plenty of veggie and non-veg options. Dogs are allowed in the outside dining area. Items that we ordered, liked, and recommend: Mumbai Manhattan, law of the jungle, general Sharma, chaat dog, stuffed naan-makhani, palak paneer, and gulab jamun Items that we ordered and were underwhelmed by: Fried okras, Chicken dum biryani . Chicken in Dum biryani was great, but the flavor overall was very mild Smaller plates are easier to share, whereas entrees are sizeable. We had a great time ordering a lot of small plates and getting to try different types of food Book a table ahead of time, especially on weekends.

I stopped by Sherkaan toward the end of the day, and while the food didn’t quite hit the mark, the service and decor were fantastic. The staff was welcoming and attentive, and the ambiance was warm and inviting—it definitely set the right tone. As for the food, the spices in most dishes didn’t seem well-blended. They tasted like they were added at the last minute rather than cooked into the food. The samosa was interesting—it was huge, and the dough had a texture and flavor that reminded me of a Chinese donut. Surprisingly, it worked well in this case. The dosa, unfortunately, was disappointing. It was pre-cut, and the batter lacked flavor and texture. The paneer naan with makhani curry had so much potential, but the curry was underwhelming. Like the other dishes, the spices did not feel bloomed and not incorporated properly. Overall, while the food didn’t quite deliver, the great service and beautiful decor made the experience enjoyable. If they can work on refining blending the flavors, this place could really shine.

Excellent food! Loved the noodles and Naan. It looks like a small restaurant from the outside but it is big and has lots of sitting space. Great for group events as well.
