Kastoori Grill

If you find yourself wandering the vibrant streets of Seattle, especially near Pike Place Market, make sure to stop by Kastoori Grill. This unassuming gem of an Indian restaurant, located at 94 Stewart St, serves up a delightful fusion of Indian and Nepali cuisine that’s as rich in flavor as it is in tradition.

Kastoori Grill offers a menu that showcases a variety of tantalizing dishes, but it’s their tandoor specials that truly stand out. Tandoori Chicken, marinated in savory yogurt and baked to perfection, epitomizes the restaurant's commitment to authenticity. For the flavor adventurers, the Lamb Boti Kabob, infused with garlic, ginger, and mustard oil, presents a smoky delight, while the Tandoori Salmon is a fresh take on a classic, combining ginger and spices for a culinary journey that lingers with every bite.

Don't overlook their naan bread offerings, which are baked in a traditional clay oven. The Garlic Naan is an excellent accompaniment, with its delightful aroma and fluffy texture that pairs beautifully with any curry.
