About Ashiana Indian Restaurant

Tucked just off the Corso, Ashiana delivers regional Indian curries and blistered tandoor naan without the cookie-cutter shortcut. Locals lean on the kitchen for dishes rarely seen on nearby menus—think Bengali fish curry or rich Hyderabadi chicken—alongside generous staples like paneer butter masala. The floor staff steer recommendations with ease and tweak spice levels to order, even accommodating off-menu dietary requests when needed. Tables fill quickly with sharing plates, easy conversation, and bottles of your own BYO wine.

  • BYO Wine Friendly: Diners can bring their own wine to pair with dinner.
  • Custom Spice & Dietary Options: The kitchen accommodates spice levels and prepares off-menu requests to suit strict dietary needs.
  • Regional Curries & Tandoor Breads: Serves regional specialties like Bengali fish curry alongside fresh bread baked in a tandoor.
