Utsav Indian Cuisine 575 Talcottville Road, Vernon, CT 06066

"Take-out here is always good, but dining in is a real treat! Food and cocktails are top notch but the service is the real standout- very fast and courteous. I recommend the murgh shahi khorma, sabji platter, and onion kulcha."

"I love Ustav! I’ve eaten at many Indian establishments and this one definitely shares the top spot. The customer service is friendly and attentive, the flavors are impeccable, and they even offered us a complimentary port at the end of our meal. They’re a little on the pricey side but worth it. I will definitely be eating here again!"

"After moving from Boston to Vernon, we were looking for a good Indian restaurant comparable to the level we found in the city. We quickly discovered that Utsav was not only comparable, but far exceeded any Indian restaurant we had ever dined at. This included many places across America and Europe. The food is simply exceptional as well as the service. Joe the owner pays attention to every need and detail of the customer and has white cloth service that I have only had at very high end restaurants. I cannot say enough about the food and staff. If you find yourself in the area Utsav is an absolute must try. You will not regret it, and there is certainly no other option for this level of culinary excellence and service in Connecticut. Enjoy!"

"This restaurant is a monthly delight. I bring my girlfriend here on date nights because of the exceptional service and mouth watering Indian cuisine. We try different meals each time and have never been disappointed. The exceptional table-side cocktail service is like nowhere else! I feel like I am receiving VIP service as if I am family. There is always tasty leftovers for the next day."

"Amazing food here, one of the best spots in the area! We came from Avon and it was well worth the drive. Kudos to the owner for doing it all on the busy Diwali night. He was so kind and accommodating all night. Running a restaurant these days is hard but they’re making it work at Utsav. We’ll absolutely be back!"
