About us

Modern Handi

The name “Handi” refers to the traditional, thick-bottomed clay pot with a narrow top that allows for lengthy simmering, which produces rich, deeply spiced flavors. For three generations our families have represented North Indian Cuisine in the finest traditional way.

Modern Handi is a one-of-a-kind culinary establishment with a menu inspired by the idea of simple, honest traditional cooking. Starting in 2018, we developed a unique dining experience for all of our guests using fresh and sustainable ingredients—taking you on a culinary journey like no other. From classic recipes to new-age kitchen adventures, each dish reflects our passion for high-quality food presented in a simple yet pleasing manner. Dive right in, and take a bite; Order today.
