Call The RestaurantBengal Tiger opened its doors in 2013 in the heart of Manhattan, where the elegance and vibrance of New York City meet the timelessness of home-style Indian cooking. Every dish is rooted in recipes passed down through generations, thoughtfully reimagined for a city that never sits still.
We began our journey in 2008 with Seva, joining the community of Astoria and learning every facet of the restaurant industry. The experience shaped our craft and cultivated a deep passion for service - the belief that every guest should feel at home. Along the way, we found our greatest joy in sharing the flavors and stories we grew up with, honoring tradition while embracing the spirit of the city that gave us the opportunity to build something of our own.
We brought that vision to Bengal Tiger, creating a place that reflects everything we love about both India and New York City: rich traditions, boundless ambition, and the belief that people from every walk of life belong around the same table. Whether you're a lifelong New Yorker or discovering the city for the first time, we hope you'll leave with the unmistakable spirit of New York hospitality, enriched by the heart of India.

“What a gem by Central Park! I've had a lot of Indian food and this one was very good. The atmosphere was so cute and clean with attentive service. The food was really tasty and, honestly, fairly priced.”
