I initially checked out Copper Chimney, as it shares the name with a famous (& very good) restaurant in Bombay. It's not the same ownership, but the food is even better than its namesake! The murgh malai kabab is simply amazing, the lobster masala is just perfectly spiced, and jhinga kurkure (shrimp) is done just right. You can't tell it from its Curry Hill neighbors, but this easily ranks amongst the top Indian restaurants in NYC (I consider myself a big foodie). Their wine list could be fuller, but their unique cocktails and mocktails more than make up for it. Prices are extremely reasonable, and service is very attentive. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE. I've been back a few times in a month with different guests, and no one has left disappointed thus far.
Pros: Great food, good service, good portions
Cons: Weak wine list
