Welcome!

Authentic Indian Vegetarian Restaurant
With Many Gluten-Free And Vegan Options

Grandma's stories always smelled like warm spices. The clatter of pots and the murmur of her voice filled the kitchen with a magic that nourished more than just our bodies. Ahimsa, meaning do no harm, captures that feeling. We use fresh, natural ingredients to recreate those comforting flavors, the kind passed down through generations in Indian families. It's a taste of home, a warm hug on a cold day. We believe food should be for everyone, so we offer delicious plant-based, and Jain options. Let Ahimsa nourish your soul with a taste of India, made with love and a sprinkle of grandma's magic.

We are proud to be the original Ahimsa, located in Midtown East at 204 East 38th Street. Our commitment to serving delicious, health-conscious meals is unwavering, and we appreciate your support.  It has come to our attention that some other restaurants are mistakenly claiming to be affiliated with us or that they share ownership with us. We want to clarify that Ahimsa at 204 East 38th Street is the only original location.

Thank you for choosing us, and we look forward to serving you!
