“Being a chef is a lot of responsability”
In 2010, the Singh family moved to Columbus. They opened the first Aab India Restaurant in Grandview to great success. Aab India Restaurant serves rustic Northern Indian cuisine. Most popular are our tandoori oven dishes and a variety of delicate, exotic curries.

“I grew up watching my father cooking, learning from him,” said Sobha, former operations manager for Aab India restaurants. Sobha took the lead in determining the best neighborhoods for Aab India’s expansion in Columbus.
He was proud of the rustic Indian cooking traditions his father brought to the city.
Although Aab India now has several chefs executing Avtar’s recipes, Sobha said his family could tell when his father was over the stove: “With the first bite, we can tell,” said Sobha.
