"On a recent Friday, the place was buzzing with the enthusiasm of friends gossiping over bowls of Schezwan noodles and military-style goat biryani. (They were fueled by BYO bottles of wine and beer.) The menu is peppered with effusive descriptors ("the O.G. Mumbai munch," "kokum-kissed coastal bliss," "umami overload"), and service is chatty and informal. "You ordered all my favorite dishes," a server told us before explaining that he got conscripted into helping out on weekends by his wife."
"The specials that night included a chile paneer, just as saucy as it should be, and a fragrant and fiery chicken koliwada served on a banana leaf. On Sundays, Aarati hosts what they call "the Pangat village lunch experience," serving Marathi cuisine. Reservations are required for the 30 available slots, and they host only one seating so that people can linger and, hope"
Pangat opened in Park Slope by a former chef de cuisine, his wife Aarati, and Joe Liao. The menu mixes regional Indian dishes with playful descriptors and specials like chile paneer and chicken koliwada. The dining room retains a counter from a previous Japanese restaurant and features a split wall showing The Great Wave Off Kanagawa alongside Warli mural art. Service is chatty and informal, and many diners bring BYO wine or beer. On Sundays, a 30-seat Pangat village lunch experience serves Marathi cuisine with a single seating that requires reservations so guests can linger.
