Kinaara is Chef Ashish Sathyan's scratch Indian restaurant. We specialize in dishes from Kerala but feature from all over the diverse sub-continent. Try our famous Butter Chicken but also add on a dish you probably have never heard of, all of it will be amazing. You will find items that are not on any other menu, such as Grandma's Fish and Mango Curry and beef specials. We are a small casual restaurant that let's the food be the star.

    Sat at bar for a drink before dinner, were totally ignored for what felt like a long time. There were maybe 8 other people at the bar and bartender was engaged in a long conversation with one couple. She finally nodded our way. Then she left, for a good long time. When we were seated, our table was in front of a giant TV which one of us had to sit facing. Not relaxing. Our waitress was very nice. We had to ask for utensils, no one noticed we had none. Food was okay, they were out of the entree we wanted most. We might go back for lunch but probably not again for dinner. It just felt like everything was a little off.

    We strive to make everyone feel like a VIP when they are here, I am very sorry that was not the case for you. I (the owner) am the bartender you were referring to. I dropped the ball, obviously but in my defense I was not actually the bartender that night, I mostly helped with dishes and made drinks when needed. Thank you for saying you will give us a second chance, I hope we can live up to our own standards next time.

    Our entire group liked what was ordered. We had a great time trying new things. The samosas were a hit with everyone. We were lucky enough to be there during Omaha Restaurant week and many opted for the prix fixe options- all of which were very good!

    This is simply the best Indian food in Omaha. Everything is amazing, and our first time guests said they will certainly be back, and one first time Indian dining experience said, he is glad he has a new genre to add to his options. The spice level goes where you want it. I am not a vegan or vegetarian, but the Jackfruit Biryani is perfect and just like a chicken dish without the meat. So greatful for this families passion to share their countries dishes with us.

    Delicious food , our water was outstanding! Only gave a bit lower because host seemed confused where to sit us ( made a reservation on open table) so waited at bar- which is fine but the bare tender was slow to acknowledge us. Eventually the bar back came over and chatted with us and got our drink orders. Food was very good. Spice levels were good. Lots to choose from. Liked there were plenty of vegan/ vegetarian options. Will return!

    The spice level was inconsistent between dishes. The salmon dish was excellent. Server said dishes were not big enough to share. When they came they were big enough to share. When asked for rice to take home with the extra food they said there was a charge.

    Every time we go to Kinaara, we leave full and extremely pleased with the meal. The chef/owner is always super nice and remembers us from the original location. The extra hot is great, but might be a bit much for some. Can't wait until the next time

    First time visiting. We were greeted and seated promptly. Basic but good by-the-glass wine selection. Paneer with roti and naan was really good and enough for three ladies to share as an app. Chicken biryani flavorful and moist w/Indian pickle as a fun condiment. Aloo Gobi was good too. Solid lunch.

    We went to Kinaara for a birthday celebration. The food was amazing and our waiter. Devon was wonderful answering our questions. I used OpenTable to make a reservation and indicate it was for a birthday, and they had a card ready and presented a complementary dessert at the end of our meal, the chef came out to see that everything was good, a nice touch. A wonderful meal, we will be back soon!

    Slightly disappointed. We had high hopes for Kinaara based on reviews and popularity but the flavor profiles of the food we ordered did not meet expectations. Even the staple Mulligatawny soup tasted one dimensional. Ambiance, service and entrees were good but not wow - maybe just an off night? Fish and meat were cooked nicely and spice level was accurate but would have liked to experience more of those wonderful earthy aromatic flavors. Indian food is a favorite and we were looking forward to adding another option in our restaurant rotation.

    We started our with the vegetable samosa which had a crispy outer and a creamy center well seasoned and both chutney’s were very good. We ordered the cheese filled as well as onion kulcha stuffed naan’s both were awesome. I Had the lamb shank vindaloo the meat was fall off the bone tender and perfectly seasoned. My wife ordered the Chicken Tiki Marsala which was creamy and very flavorful. We really liked the food and look forward to future visits.

    This was our first visit to Kinaara since moving into the area. The food was very good, once we received our meals. The appetizers came out and then we waited about a half hour. It seems that our ticket was lost somewhere in the kitchen. Our server eventually let us know what had happened and brought us something to bide us over until our entrees arrived. He did comp us a couple of glasses of wine and dessert also. We will be back again in the near future, hopefully without the kitchen/service hiccup.
