Mughlai Indian Cuisine brings a slightly polished, neighborhood-splurge take on North Indian cooking to Columbus Avenue, with curries, biryanis, and tandoori dishes that draw strong praise for depth of flavor. Diners rely on it for sit-down dinners and well-packaged delivery when they want butter chicken, chicken tikka masala, and Mughlai-style chicken curry done with care.
