Here, we look forward to welcoming you with a best-in-class dining experience. At our Bishkek venue, we are unveiling a fresh, modern theme inspired by the majestic Ajanta and Ellora caves melding timeless Indian artistry and sculpture with a contemporary flair. This unique concept beautifully unites the richness of Indian cuisine with an immersive artistic ambiance, echoing the intricate carvings, grand halls, and vivid frescoes that have made Ajanta and Ellora legendary, complemented by a well-stocked bar.
Salaam Namaste - Jalalabad brings you the true essence of magnificent Lucknawi and Indian cuisine, open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, with an extensive menu that scripts your journey through the vaults of gourmet perfection.

Enjoy specialties like 'Tandoori Prawns'—prawns flavoured with saffron and roasted in a tandoor—and 'Tandoori Chicken' (tandoori grilled chicken legs); kebabs the likes of which perhaps have never been experienced in our cities. Savor the "Chicken Tikka Masala" (barbecued chicken simmered in a gravy of cashew nut, tomato, and cream), the "Rogan Gosht" (mutton roundels simmered in spicy masalas), or the "Dum Biryani"—all sure to satisfy even the most discerning gastronome.
