About Junoon

Located at 19 West 24th Street in the Flatiron District, Junoon is a trailblazing Indian fine-dining destination that helped pave the way for the modern Indian food renaissance in New York City . The name means "passion" in Hindi, and that passion is evident in every detail—from the glass-enclosed spice room where blends are ground daily to a Wine Spectator award-winning program and a Michelin star held for eight consecutive years . The restaurant reopened post-pandemic in a more intimate space, moving away from a tasting-menu-only format to offer flexible dining options . Today, you can order à la carte, a three-course prix-fixe ($85), or a seven-course chef's tasting menu ($115) . The menu celebrates India's five traditional cooking techniques (tandoor, sigri, patthar, tawa, and handi), with standout dishes like the Tellicherry Pepper Duck ($40), Ghost Chili Murgh Tikka ($22), and Tandoori Octopus ($24) . The Tuna Puchka—semolina puffs filled with tuna and caviar—has become a signature, and the Dal Makhani is widely considered a must-order . The space is elegant but not stuffy—think pendant lights with grass ropes, vintage mirrors, a gleaming marble bar, and a warm, sophisticated vibe that works for both business dinners and date nights . The restaurant is halal-friendly (management confirms halal meats with advance notice) and offers abundant vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options
