Evolving food landscape has a way to make inroads to Delhi grub hubs, consequentially bringing NŌDO – Ramen, Sushi, Dimsum—India’s first dedicated Grab & Go Pan-Asian kitchen to Khan Market. The concept sits between quick-service efficiency and casual dining sensibility, aimed at diners who still want global flavours, just in a more immediate, portable format.

Sushi, dimsum, and ramen have steadily built their place on menus across cities, though most often within dine-in-led restaurants or scattered delivery offerings. What has been missing, however, is a format built specifically around how these foods are actually consumed today—quickly, frequently, and often on the move.

NŌDO builds its model around that gap. Orders are prepared through a combination of centralised preparation and live assembly, ensuring the freshness stays intact. Equal attention is given to how the food travels. Sushi is packed in structured trays, dim sum is laid out in secure boxes while ramen is assembled in spill-proof bowls. It is a system built as much for delivery and takeaway as it is for a quick dine-in stop.

“We built NŌDO around a simple observation—people still crave quality Asian food, but they don’t always have the time for a traditional dining experience,” says Shivang Gupta, Founder of NŌDO. “Our goal was to create a format where speed, consistency, and flavour coexist without compromise. From how the ramen is assembled to how the sushi is packed, every detail is designed for convenience without losing authenticity.” 

Ruhi Gupta, Co- founder of  NŌDO says, “We believe NŌDO is not just launching a kitchen, but introducing a new way of consuming Asian food in India. The grab-and-go format has been missing in this category, and we’ve built NŌDO to fill that gap with precision. It’s fast, it’s consistent, and it’s designed for the pace of urban life—without losing the depth and authenticity that people expect from  pan cuisine.”

The menu is intentionally focused on three categories—sushi, dimsum, and ramen. Ramen is one of the biggest draws–it can be customised based on choice of broth, noodles, and toppings and NŌDO is the only one providing such a wide variety of ramen flavors. One of the key dishes is the Kimchi Umami bowl, which brings together a fermented kimchi broth with gochugaru heat, greens, and a jammy egg, with options to choose between wheat noodles, udon, or pad thai, and proteins ranging from tofu and jammy egg to cheese.

Flavour profiles move across familiar but layered territory—from the depth of kimchi-based broths to the richness of tonkotsu and lighter Thai coconut curries. Sushi, under the section The Tokyo Street, offers rolls like asparagus tempura, avocado cream cheese, katsu chicken, and seafood dynamite. The dimsum selection includes cream cheese with chilli oil, Thai nutty vegetable, charcoal chicken, and butter garlic prawn. 

The drinks menu is simple and includes refreshing beverages in classic and fruit-forward flavours such as lychee and grape. All in all, NŌDO is an accessible premium brand that caters to an urban audience, particularly younger consumers who seek global options yet want quick, consistent and easy to consume choices. 

The brand plans to expand across high-density urban pockets where speed, reliability, and delivery readiness matter as much as flavour. By narrowing its focus to three categories and building an execution-first model around them, NŌDO is not simply adding another Asian restaurant to the city’s growing list- it is redefining how fast, flavourful, and future-ready urban dining can be.
