Antena Indian Fine Dine and Bar

Antena is the new fine-dine Indian spot near Leander, the kind where I actually dressed up, and walking into a half-empty room baffled me because the food earns a crowd. Everything came fresh, flavorful, and hot, the portions ran generous, and the staff handed out recommendations that did not let me down. The Chicken Lollipops came crispy and were a clear highlight, the Palak Paneer was creamy and balanced, and the bold Peri Peri Pasta was a genuine surprise. The Tandoori Chicken landed perfect and the Chicken Biryani, while milder than some, was packed with flavor.

And the happy hour is the real secret weapon: great food, great drinks, great value. A huge shout to Nimesh behind the bar, whose service skills are top shelf and who turned the night up a notch. This room deserves to be full. Go fill it.
