Our standards

How we select

No algorithm games and no fake reviews. Every restaurant is measured against the same four standards before it earns a place in our guide.

01

Authentic flavor

Real spices, real technique and dishes that taste like they should, whether classic or modern.

02

Consistent quality

Strong, steady reputations with critics and guests over time, not one viral week.

03

Hospitality

Warm service, clean dining rooms and kitchens that care about every plate.

04

Community love

Recommendations from chefs, food lovers and the Indian community who know the difference.

Sponsored placements are clearly labeled. Paying never changes how we describe a restaurant. Read our full policy.

Frequently asked questions

How do you choose restaurants for the guide?

Our editors build an unranked shortlist from each restaurant's own menu and website, independent local reporting and dated diner feedback. Each branch must be operating and must have served the public for at least six months. We recheck listings regularly.

Can restaurants pay to be listed?

No. Editorial selection is never for sale and Basic listings are free. Restaurants can buy a Sponsored placement through our owner program, and every paid placement is clearly labeled Sponsored.
