Another addition to Shiva Natarajan critically acclaimed Indian eateries in the Tri-State area that include Chola, Dhaba, Bombay, Malabar, Malabar Hill and Jaipore Royal Cuisine. Mr. Natarajan is excited to add this small gem to his roster and hopes that the cuisine will spark the same type of following that The Chola Group’s eateries’ have already received by both press and diners.

Shiva Natarajan is the owner and Chef Consultant for this intimate eatery. it is affordable and offers delicious Northern Indian cuisine. His goal is to inspire New Yorkers who have not tried the tantalizing cuisine to step into the exotic world, and flavors, of India.

And if they are already fans, the new restaurant will offer clients a reasonably priced option with food that can be delivered directly to home of office if so inclined.

Tadka New York, with its dark wood and light-flowing lanterns, combines traditional Indian décor with a New York sensibility. This intimate eatery features dark wooden floors and tables and comfortable chairs, a green banquette and walls decorated with a large mirror and small statues hidden amidst strategically mounted frames.

The large front window gives the feeling of airiness coupled with serene relaxation. Space is limited and yet the overall feel comfortable and inviting.

The food, an extension of the fine dining experience at his creative other restaurants and is reasonably priced.The menu is extensive, with something for everyone, and they offer catering for all occasions and corporate accounts are welcome!!!

Outstanding service and perfectly balanced spicing are the hallmark of this charming restaurant. Don’t miss the fabulous goat curry; the best keema (hand-chopped lamb) curry imaginable; unbelievable garlic nan (bread) and light desserts, especially the airy fritters in syrup. All vegetable dishes are outstanding and the spicing is subtle and exciting. Rice creations and breads also shine and it would be an injustice to call the feast that arrived at our home takeout. Here is classy cuisine that is arguably the best Indian-delivery food in New York. Another bravo to Mr. Natarajan. That’s A Major on The Walman Report.

No Liquor. BYOB, NO Corkage Charge.

Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, and you know what they say about roses and chocolate—it’s all been done. For a unique and equally romantic Valentine’s day experience, Sushi Zen’s omakase is the perfect choice. Have chef Toshio Suzuki custom-create a meal according to your taste and budget—he’ll serve you personally at the gorgeously designed sushi bar where you can feel luxuriously pampered by one of America’s best Japanese chefs. In fact, Suzuki likens the experience of his omakase to a day at the spa—it’s good for your body, relaxes you, stimulates your senses, and re-energizes you—but it’s a lot less girly. And you know what they say about oysters…

The chef’s omakase ranges between $100 and $120 per person.

Reservations kindly requested, (212) 302-0707

Sushi Zen (www.sushizen-ny.com) is located at 108 West 44th Street between Broadway and Sixth Ave. Monday-Friday, lunch from 12 noon – 2:45pm; dinner from 5:30pm-10:00pm. Saturday dinner from 5:00pm-10pm. Closed Sunday. For reservations call 212-302-0707. www.sushizen-ny.com

Review By Nancy Walman

The space that previously housed a haute French restaurant (La Fourchette), an upmarket wine-bar-cum-restaurant (a branch of the successful Merchants NY) and Aïgo, which featured pan-Mediterranean cuisine, has now found its true calling. Now five years old, One83 gets our vote as one of the best classic Italian restaurants on the Upper East Side, with prices a notch below its competitors. Its four owners are responsible for some of Manhattan’s most solid Italian restaurants and the remake of Delmonico’s. Service is far more polished than one encounters in this class of restaurant. From the front of the house, to waiters and busboys, everyone seems to be doing something — and — doing it well.

Housed in a colorful space that evokes the true spirit of Italy, One83 has a warm and inviting interior with an array of midnight and sky blues, and copper and golden hues. The 65-seat dining room is complemented by light woods and multi-level suede squares that line the ceiling and are the color of the deep blue Mediterranean sky. The restaurant also offers al fresco dining in a lovely garden blooming with fresh greens and flowers.

Such appetizers as imported prosciutto, asparagus and the finest mozzarella available will delight you, as will a fritto misto of fried calamari, shrimp, cod and zucchini in a zesty tomato sauce. All pasta dishes can be ordered in half portions. Standouts include homemade linguini with fresh clams, Italian bacon, chilies and white wine and fettuccine with baby sweet peas and an aromatic meat sauce.

Entrees, often a letdown at NY Italian restaurants, excel at One83. You’ll love wild king salmon, encrusted with herbs in a lemon-chardonnay sauce and “long bone” veal chop in Barolo wine sauce. Remy Djelosevic, the charming restaurant manager and captain, will select the perfect bottle and there are fine wines by the glass starting at $10 as well as an excellent bar. Service is polished and personal.

Desserts are light and refreshing or sinfully rich. Whatever you choose, be sure to include the mixed berries in a cold Zabaglione sauce and the especially memorable Italian cheesecake. Wonderful coffee and biscotti are lovely conclusions. ONE83, 1608 First Ave., between 83rd & 84th St., is an island of civility, a personal favorite and rates A Major on The Walman Report.
