    • MODERN RESTAURANT- TIME HONORED CUISINE

    Junoon, “passion” in Hindi, delivers on the promise of its moniker with an authentic, yet elegantly modern take on Indian cuisine. Restaurateur Rajesh Bhardwaj, inspired to share his love for the food and culture of his native India, assembled a talented team to create a world-class restaurant that would re-define how Indian cuisine is presented on the international gastronomic stage. Junoon is the recipient of a prestigious Michelin star the year it opened and has earned the same coveted award 8 years in a row. The team shares a vision of the future for Indian cuisine, an endeavor to improve the purest traditional and regional cuisines, while simultaneously creating innovative, modern dishes and interpretation. Our passion is a contemporary restaurant offering dining experiences to satisfy all aspects of fine cuisine, in a vibrant and trendsetting ambience. Junoon is a place of gathering, a place of celebration, a place for business and a place for pleasure.

    BEVERAGE PROGRAM

    Junoon’s wine program, an “Award of Excellence” recipient from Wine Spectator every year since opening in 2010 is another leading pillar of Junoon that separates its modern concept from the pack. The wine program is constructed to be approachable for the novice and alluring to the enthusiast, focused on regions that best complement Indian cuisine, while presenting a program of considerable breadth. Junoon exemplifies the uncompromising and passionate devotion to superior wine selections emblematic of a modern restaurant, offering both classic old world wines and a wide variety of the most sought after new world bottles.

    Junoon's cocktail program pushes the envelope in the art of drink-making and provides an immersive experience from start to finish. We use classical tenets and modern technique to craft libations that pair with each course of your meal, blending locally farmed fruits and herbs with unconventional spices and teas - particularly those from India. Entrust our skilled bartenders to build you a story in a glass that travels with you well beyond our restaurant walls.
