About Zeera In Hawthorn

Hawthorn’s go-to for rich North Indian curries balances smoky tandoori meats with playful street chaat. The dining room hums with easy weekend energy, wine pours, and attentive floor service. regulars steer straight toward the butter chicken or creamy lamb korma scooped up with warm roti, but the crisp pani puri and sweet Kashmiri naan steal just as much attention at the table. A night here finishes quietly on a sweet note with classic rasmalai or warm gulab jamun.

  • Street-Style Chaat: Crisp pani puri and dahi puri bring street-stall crunch to the table alongside rich, simmered gravies.
  • Kashmiri Naan: A sweet, fruit-laced flatbread designed to counter fiery curries and creamy lamb korma.
  • Weekend Curries & Tandoor: Tender lamb cutlets, spiced chicken 65, and butter chicken pair with house reds and soft background tracks.
