“We are thrilled to bring Samudhra to the heart of New York City and become part of the vibrant Times Sq. and Hell’s Kitchen neighborhoods. The Ellery provides an exceptional setting for our New York City location and gives us the opportunity to introduce our distinctive premium Indian dining and lounge experience to a much broader audience. We look forward to creating a destination where authentic Indian cuisine, hospitality, and atmosphere come together, while building on the experience that has made Samudhra a favorite on the East Coast” said Mangesh Chinthamaneni, founder & CEO at Samudhra.
