Great way to end a NYC trip. The food was outstanding and the service just as well. Nice selection of various Indian Chinese Bengali cuisine and we topped it off with mango ice cream and mini donut crem brûlée. Highly recommend and will definitely return if we are back in NYC.

The best Indian food I have ever eaten. The stage was fresh, light, and bursting with flavor. Onion kulcha was sublime. Amazing to find such excellent food in the theater district.

UTSAV is my favorite Indian restaurant. Usually, the service is excellent -- but last evening it wasn't so good. Hope next time it will be much better.

The food was excellent. The only down side was the rather disinterested waitress who was aloof and made several mistakes with the order.

Have been to Utsav a couple of times but was clearly not impressed. Food was mediocre and the service was lacking.

I asked for a window seat and not a huge view but fun to look out. Our server Suzzane was super nice! Our food was excellent we had a noodle dish, butter chicken stuffed Indian bread and some appetizers. There was an add in our Theater magazine for free dessert which they did give us. It was all enough for 2 and we took the Chicken home. Nice setting and friendly service with out the huge bill. We will go back! 3 blocks from all the Broadway shows in mid-town
