Dum N Grill Is Taking Over the Old Café India Space on Flower Mound Road

If you drove past 1121 Flower Mound Road lately and wondered what was happening in the old Café India suite, here's your answer.

Dum N Grill is coming to Flower Mound, bringing Indian fusion cuisine — authentic biryani, flame-grilled kebabs, and drinks made with traditional Indian flavors. The spot is the same space Café India occupied at 1121 Flower Mound Road.

No opening date has been announced. Bookmark it and check back. What the announcement does confirm is that the suite has been sitting dark, and a new concept moving in means the stretch of Flower Mound Road near that shopping center is still drawing interest from restaurateurs.

The menu spans aromatic biryanis, fire-grilled kebabs, comforting curries, and snack-time favorites — the kind of range that works for a solo weeknight takeout run and a table of six on a Saturday. The biryanis are prepared using dum technique: fragrant basmati rice, marinated ingredients, and layered spices slow-cooked together. That's the "dum" in the name. A sealed-pot cooking method that dates back centuries in Indian kitchens.

For residents who relied on Café India and have been making the drive to Long Prairie Road or farther for Indian food, the address is already familiar and the parking lot is already in your mental map. The cuisine style is in the same family.
