Inja
New Delhi, India
- No.75 Asia's 50 Best Restaurants 2026
Bringing together Indian and Japanese culinary traditions with intent, Inja reimagines familiar dishes through a cross-cultural lens. Highlights include the crispy crab kachori, where salmon caviar replaces chaat masala to deliver a burst of umami, and gobhi 65 maki, which transforms a beloved cauliflower-based street-food into a roll. The standout cold palak paneer arrives resembling Mount Fuji, pairing tempura-fried paneer, Japanese curry mayo, crispy rice and fried garlic in a playful reworking of the classic dish. Cocktails draw on the twilight hour's sense of intimacy and discovery. The Issamue, which blends soy, vanilla, tamarind and Japanese plum liqueur into a silky, foam-topped serve, encapsulates Inja's talent for finding unexpected harmony between Indian and Japanese flavours.
