Read moreSilk Route Hospitality is a Washington, DC–based restaurant group founded by Chef Sanjay Mandhaiya, built on the idea of connecting culture, cuisine, and community through thoughtful dining experiences.
The group began with the opening of Pappe in 2018, a vibrant and modern Indian concept that quickly established itself as a neighborhood staple.
In 2025, Silk Route expanded with Karravaan, a concept inspired by the spirit of journey and shared dining, further reflecting the group’s commitment to storytelling through food and hospitality.
Continuing its growth, Silk Route Hospitality will debut The Grace in summer 2026, an ambitious new concept that represents the next evolution of the group’s vision—refined, immersive, and rooted in exceptional service.
Across all its concepts, Silk Route Hospitality is defined by bold flavors, strong operational standards, and a dedication to creating memorable guest experiences.
