Eylan, meaning 'proclamation' in Hindi, offers an inventive blend of regional Indian cuisine with a Cal Indian story, emphasizing a farm-to-table sensibility and wood-fired grill techniques. Located in a swanky, new multi-use development in Menlo Park, it provides a stylish and elevated dining experience with complimentary underground parking.
Customers praise Eylan for its fantastic food, beautiful interiors, and attentive service, making it suitable for special occasions. Highlights include flavorful paneer, elevated taro root chat and puchkas, succulent lamb chops, and delicious cured hamachi. While the ambiance is generally described as chic and inviting, some reviewers note that tables can be close together, leading to a loud, less intimate atmosphere. Cocktails are considered decent but average for the price, and the restaurant is frequently described as expensive.
Eylan is from the same culinary team that brought Ettan, another acclaimed restaurant. The restaurant's concept leverages a 'Cal Indian story,' blending Californian influences with traditional Indian flavors and cooking methods.
Eylan is open for dinner Monday through Friday, and for both lunch and dinner on Saturdays and Sundays. It's ideal for an elevated dining experience in the evening or a weekend lunch.
