Touch of Asia

Touch of Asia is a family-owned, owner-operated halal Indian and Pakistani restaurant tucked into a strip mall at 6860 W 105th St in Overland Park, Kansas. A long-standing metro favorite for North Indian cooking, it has built a multi-decade regular clientele on warm hospitality and consistent, all-halal kitchen.

Description

Touch of Asia is a casual, family-owned Indian and Pakistani restaurant in Overland Park, Kansas, located in the back of a small strip mall at 6860 W 105th St.¹ The kitchen specializes in North Indian and Pakistani delicacies, with a menu spanning appetizers, vegetarian and non-vegetarian entrées, South Indian items, and desserts.² All meat served is halal, and the restaurant is widely listed across halal-dining directories as a confirmed halal kitchen.³ Regulars and reviewers consistently describe it as one of the best Indian restaurants in the Kansas City metro, praising the spice balance, naan, generous portions, and family-style hospitality.⁴

Ownership and history

Touch of Asia is family owned and operated.² Its late co-owner and proprietor, Harjinder Gill, was a fixture in the dining room — a “quiet, friendly man” who personally greeted patrons and built relationships with regulars over many years. He passed away from a heart attack at age 51 in 2014.⁵ A long-time customer account published in April 2014 noted the family had dined at Touch of Asia for roughly 16 years by that point, which places the restaurant’s origins in the late 1990s.⁵ Yelp reviews independently corroborate the long tenure, with at least one reviewer describing themselves as a regular customer “since last 20 years.”¹ The exact founding year is not published by the restaurant or in any primary source, so “late 1990s” remains an inference from these multi-year-regular accounts rather than a directly stated date. The current ownership/operating principals’ names beyond the late Harjinder Gill are not published in any available source.
