Vatan

Unclaimed

We celebrated our anniversary at Vatan on a weekend evening and had a wonderful experience. The service and atmosphere were excellent, and we loved the spacious interior. The food was delicious (4/5), with the Puri and Aloo sabzi being our favorites.

This is hands down the best dining experience I’ve had in Kips Bay. This was my first time having Gujarati-style Indian food. First, the ambience was perfectly intimate, authentic, and cozy. The staff was wonderful and made our date night dining experience unforgettable. Our Waitress, Dhara was the best waitress - she was very informative in all the dishes we were being served and had such a wonderful energy about her. The food is all you can eat for a very affordable price. From appetizers, entrees to desserts. The first round served as a tasting experience which let us explore the flavors of the cuisine. And if we liked something we were able to get refills as much as we want. Love this place - Thank you so much Dhara for making it unforgettable. We will see you soon

Vatan is a vegetarian, all you can eat Indian restaurant... The food was good, authentic and simple. The appetizer and mains all came as an assortment of veggie dishes with an array of bread and flatbreads. Besides the food the atmosphere is fun, it seemed to me that it would be a good place to host informal events. The room is great and there is also a more private balcony inside. All in all I would definitely come back..

Came here for a friend’s birthday - we all got the buffet option. Divine Indian food: all of us were completely stuffed by the end of this meal. The samosas, different curries and bread - all of which were excellent. Fair warning: as someone with a reasonably high spice tolerance, the fried pepper definitely challenged me. The service was also amazing: they made sure everyone in our party was taken care of (different spice levels, bringing water, brought out the cake after I called ahead). Would definitely come again either for a casual meal or for a special occasion.

Good enough place if you want a pre-fixe Gujarati tali. Little pricey for the experience ($45 +tax/tip so about $58/pp, but it is unlimited "refills" on the food. Place does have beer/wine/cocktails (extra $). All in all, a good place, but not worth a trip into NYC just for this, but a good optionif looking for a fix for Gujurati food and are already in the area.
