Diwan
Port Washington, NY
Open. The rescue stuck and it continues to operate.
The short answer
Official website confirmed live with current hours; family-owned since 1989, waterfront on Manhasset Bay, Chef Bobby Chhikara. TripAdvisor #9 of 65 Port Washington restaurants.
What happened on the show
Ramsay was confused before he even walked into Diwan, thrown by a sign outside billing the 35-year-old Indian restaurant as a kebab bar. Inside he found leftover Mexican decor from a failed experiment owner Bobby Chhikara had run to offer more options, a telling sign of an old Port Washington favorite that had lost track of what it was. Bobby and his co-owner Margaret had run the waterfront restaurant on Manhasset Bay since 1989, but his taste for experimental fusion had muddied its identity. Aired as the second half of the Season 8 finale and filmed in June 2023, the episode set out to bring an aging local institution back to a clear point of view, stripping away the muddled experiments and reminding a longtime favorite what it had always been good at.
After the cameras left
Diwan held onto its long run. As of our latest verification the Port Washington restaurant was open with current hours on its official site, still a waterfront fixture on Manhasset Bay after more than three decades in business under Chef Bobby Chhikara. The identity crisis Ramsay found, an Indian institution dabbling in kebabs and leftover Mexican decor, evidently resolved enough to keep the family favorite going into its fourth decade.
