Coach House, 2x James Beard Award and Jean Banchet Award-nominated Chef Zubair's Mohajir’s latest venture, is a Tasting Menu experience featuring a heavy dose of South Indian flavors whilst avoiding direct tradition. Coach House is located in the rear of Lilac Tiger's street food location, on Division St.

Our 7-course Tasting Menu rotates seasonally, and is featured on Friday and Saturday nights at 5:45pm and 8:30pm; this experience gives insight into the culinary traditions that Chef Zubair was raised with, reimagined through a modern lens.

Your experience can be supplemented with one of our thoughtfully-curated wine and cocktail pairings, or you and your guests can select your sipper from our worldly wine list, elegant cocktails, and vibrant and non-alcoholic signature drinks.

    The service, style, and spirit of the Coach House were all a sincere delight, and I would go back in a heartbeat. Kind, attentive, warm, caring, and intentional all come to mind when I think about that night. Chef and his team created an experience that felt like being welcomed into someone’s home and being well taken care of by them. The food was, of course, amazing, but I have to give a special shoutout to the chai that finished the menu - I haven’t stopped talking or thinking about it.

    The Coach House is an amazing experience. The food is innovative, tasty, and wonderfully presented. I have been to India 7 times and never had as good a meal as the coach House. The Chef should receive a Michelin Star for his very creative work.

    Really interesting and delicious meal. I'm pretty familiar with Indian and pakistani food, but this meal introduced me to different flavor combinations and a more refined presentation compared to desi meal I've had before. We really enjoyed the experience and we will be back!

    One of a kind dining experience!! Chef Mohajir’s creations are a explorative journey through history, time and cultures. You are in for an amazing and unique culinary adventure! Set in an intimate coach house, the intentionally casual and approachable environment invites you to appreciate and explore complex flavor profiles and not be overwhelmed by any of it. The wait staff and cocktails are great too!

    Good service. First 2 portions were great but small. Paella was okay but a filler.
