    Among Murray Hill's cluster of Indian restaurants, Dhaba occupies the middle ground: more reliable than Curry In a Hurry's grab-and-go speed but less polished than Sahib or Bhatti Indian Grill, both of which offer tableside service and slightly elevated presentations. If your priority is value and no-wait seating, Curry In a Hurry undercuts Dhaba on price and speed; if you want a step up in ambiance without leaving the neighbourhood, Sahib and Bhatti deliver that refinement for a modest uptick in cost. Anjappar Chettinad brings South Indian specialties and dosa preparations into the mix, a useful pivot if you're looking beyond North Indian staples.

    Dhaba's late-night hours (until 1 AM Friday and Saturday) give it an edge over most neighbourhood competitors, which close by 11 PM. That extended window makes it the default choice when other kitchens have shut down. For diners weighing booking difficulty, all five venues operate on walk-in models with minimal waits outside weekend peak hours, so your decision hinges on whether you value speed, price, ambiance, or the specific regional cuisine you're craving. Dhaba wins on convenience and hours; Sahib and Bhatti win on polish; Curry In a Hurry wins on speed and budget; Anjappar wins if you want dosa instead of naan.
