A nice place to get dinner before a Broadway show. Tasty food and always easy to get a table if you're early.

Very good Indian food in the Theater district. Very tasty. Good service. Family oriented. We had Butter Chicken Kulcha as an appetizer. Delicious bites of butter chicken with a little kick served in mini stuffed bread! I had the Bhuna Shrimp - very nice sized shrimp in a tomato onion sauce with rice - nice heat level. Wished I had more garlic Naan which was light and flaky to dip. My friend had the Saag paneer which she loved. Generous potions of both mains. Would definitely recommend!

The food was delicious. We had samosas (we’re not exceptional- too thick a crust) grilled shrimp that were huge and chicken in a coconut sauce that was fabulous. The price for tea was ridiculous $8 so we didn’t have any. Three of us shared a good bottle of wine for same price as 3 glasses.

Second time here. Food is great but wait staff seemed disinterested. Polite, but unengaging.

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.
