"Chef Mariano Ramón has a sixth sense for creating unique flavor combinations. Here, he's known for his series of small and medium-sized plates that pack a lot of flavors —especially a balance between salty, sweet, and acidic notes. Gran Dabbang was inspired by Ramón's travels across India and Southeast Asia and is named after his favorite Bollywood action film, Dabangg (the poster hangs on the wall). Come for the unique combination of Asian and Latin American flavors. Standout dishes include the fainá , a chickpea cake topped with burrata, harissa, and smoked eggplant; lamb curry with coconut chutney and raita; and Swiss chard pakoras." - Allie Lazar
