Welcome to Red Onion NYC — where Indian heritage meets modern flavors. Our story dates back to the 1930s in the royal courts of Rajasthan. Today, we bring that timeless tradition to Manhattan's East Village, crafting every dish from scratch using organic, locally sourced ingredients and spices imported directly from northern India.
We believe dining should be an experience — from the moment you walk through our doors to the last bite. Our kitchen operates with a single principle: health is wealth.
