ROOH Palo Alto

Pani Puri

ROOH's signature interactive street-food bite — crisp semolina shells filled tableside with spiced potato and a selection of flavored waters, from tamarind to jalapeño, that range from bright to bracingly sour

Lamb Chops

Frenched chops with a tandoor char on the outside and a blush-pink center, finished with a spiced marinade that perfumes the meat without overwhelming it

Dal Makhani

Slow-cooked black lentils in a rich, buttery tomato base — deeply savory and one of the most faithful renditions of the classic on the menu

Butter Chicken

A modern plating of the Indian-American staple — the sauce is velvety and aromatic, though spice-averse compared to versions you'd find at a traditional dhaba

Malai Broccoli

Charred broccoli florets coated in a creamy malai marinade with subtle spice — unexpectedly compelling for a vegetable dish and a reliable vegetarian crowd-pleaser

Gulab Jamun

House version of the classic syrup-soaked milk dumplings, often paired with ice cream or a modern accompaniment — a reliable closer when dessert options feel limited

Cocktails (signature program)

The bar punches above its weight — cocktails are built around Indian spices and aromatics like cardamom, saffron, and chai, making them a genuine draw rather than an afterthought
