The details
Mumbai-inspired plates with a Texas twist include starters like Electric Poutine and curry queso, Bombay pressed sandwiches, and gravies like tikka masala and pork vindaloo. Basmati rice krispies and sweet chaat are on the dessert menu.
“Electric Gravy is more than just a place to eat—it’s a sensory experience,” Chef Brendan Nomura said in a statement. “We’re focusing on a tighter menu with dishes that reflect bold, soulful flavors and the vibrancy of Mumbai.”
To drink, Electric Gravy offers several house cocktails as well as beer, wine and nonalcoholic options. Spins on classic cocktails include the Mumbai 75, Maharashtra Mule and Whiskey Uncle, plus frozen drinks like the Lassi Painkiller.

The concept was developed by Nomura and co-founders Peter D’Souza and Ben Cachila, also a partner in Electric Gravy sister restaurant Old Thousand located a few doors down on the East 11th Street corridor. Inspired by Indian and Bollywood culture, Cachila called it an "authentic" space designed to foster community.
"We wanted to create something that captures the chaos and magnetism of Mumbai’s streets, but relaxed and welcoming like Austin. And of course, full of flavor," D’Souza said.

After its March opening for dinner only, Electric Gravy plans to add brunch service later this year.
