You will not be able to spot Graffiti unless you are actively looking out for it. This is a great place to cozy up with your special someone or even meet their mom (as one couple did when we were eating there). Seating is cozy to the point of being cramped. Tables of two are often right up next to each other so you have to be nice to the stranger next to you and watch your conversation. The décor may be described as very contemporary-chic (lots of antiques and abstract art, and a pretty huge chandelier). The lighting is so dim that reading their menu will take some ingenious handling of the candle on your table. The food is excellent. We had the most memorable paneer appetizer ever (green mango paneer). The foodie got the crab noodle roll and the photographer got the sesame beef sandwich. The portions are skimpy, especially for the price, so if you are really hungry, you might have to go get pizza afterward. The owner clearly has great taste in décor and food. We would highly recommend if you aren’t famished, and with an advisory to watch your elbows.
