Communiti has been on my list for quite some time and we were finally able to visit this place on a busy Sunday afternoon. Situated in Residency road, this place is a vibe on its own. It gives you the vibe of dining in an old brick house with dim lights. We were directed to sit in the first floor. I'd give 4/5 for the ambience.
Let's come to the main point of writing this review. The service ! The staff were really on their toes and quick to collect orders from us. Despite being overcrowded, our table was getting served with food and drinks faster than we could return the empty plates to them. I'd like to commend David and Fabi specially for their enthusiasm and affability they displayed. David was the star in the first floor. From taking orders and helping us order food to clicking pictures, he's the man to go to ! Great job all around folks ! It'd be a shame to rate the service anything less than 5/5.
Let's come to the food. Though slightly on the expensive side, the taste and portion size was really bang for the buck. We ordered the Mexi paneer starter, the farmhouse pizza and Mac and cheese pasta. The dishes had decent portion and we're very palatable. The only thing I probably disliked was that the menu was very limited. There was only a chocolate truffle cake for dessert. Come on fellas, I can have a sweet tooth sometimes ! Apart from the limited menu, I don't have a negative point about the food. So, I'd rate the food a solid 4/5.
Now to the spirit world. I should say the craft beer was amazing. I ordered the Irish Ale and Belgian Wit. Both were delicious and smooth. I felt that the Belgian Wit was a tad bit fruitier than what you get in other places but it was a flavour I enjoyed a lot. So, craft beer lovers, Irish Ale and Belgian Wit it is. Looking forward to try other flavours as well ! The ladies ordered a bunch of cocktails like Show me the Moni, cosmopolitan, Mojito and sex on the beach. They were shaken and stirred and layered to perfection as well. Very refreshing all around. I'd definitely rate drinks as a solid 5/5.
So, all in all, if you want to visit a place around Residency road that's not going to make you second guess your decision, then Communiti is definitely the place to go to. Although it's not the most pocket friendly place around but the vibe set by the place, the enthusiastic and friendly staff, great food and refreshing drinks are definitely worth a visit, or heck,...
Read moreCommunity, MG Road – Where Every Visit Feels Like a Celebration of Flavour, Vibes & Warm Hospitality!
Community on MG Road is one of those rare places that never fails to impress, no matter how many times you visit. I’ve been here several times with my friends and have always had a great time, but this time, I visited with my small family for a casual get-together. We were looking for a place with good vibes, tasty food, and a relaxed setting to enjoy some quality time, and Community delivered just that. We ordered peri-peri fries, pork chilli, cocktails, and our absolute favourite of the day — the crispy prawns. The prawns were not only delicious but also beautifully presented, showing the effort and creativity of the chef. It’s clear that some of the dishes are prepared with a lot of care and skill, and you can actually see the passion in how the food is served.
Though I didn’t plan on writing a review, the overall experience was so good that I felt it was worth sharing. The service here is always friendly and welcoming, and the staff really know how to make you feel comfortable. They’re also very helpful when it comes to customising dishes — for example, we requested the pork chilli to be made a bit differently, and they were more than happy to accommodate us. The place has a great atmosphere, with both indoor and outdoor seating options depending on your mood. The outdoor area is especially nice if you enjoy sitting under the open sky with a chilled drink in hand. It’s a great spot whether you’re out with friends or spending a relaxed evening with family.
Community is a special place to visit because it consistently delivers high-quality food, warm hospitality, and a pleasant atmosphere. It clearly stands out among other options in the MG Road area. If you’re nearby and looking for a place that brings together great taste, good service, and positive energy, this is definitely...
Read moreIf you’re planning to visit this place, do yourself a favour—don’t. What was once a decent joint has now managed to fall from grace at an impressive pace. The decline in quality is so consistent, it’s almost like they’re aiming for it. Let’s start with the customer service—or the sheer lack of it. The staff appeared genuinely uninterested in the concept of service. Eye contact? Non-existent. Basic courtesy? Too much to ask. It felt like we were inconveniencing them just by showing up. A warm welcome? More like a cold shoulder. Now, onto the drinks. If you're a beer lover, you’re in for a disappointment. The quality of the beers here has nosedived. The Hefeweizen pitcher we ordered—typically a safe, staple choice—was sour and completely off. And no, not the intentional sour of a craft experiment, but the “something’s definitely wrong here” kind of sour. A beer tragedy, really. As for the food—well, it never had a reputation for being remarkable, and let’s just say it’s staying true to itself. Small portions, bland flavours, and uninspired presentation. It’s almost like they want you to regret ordering it. To add to the experience, the AC wasn’t working on a particularly warm day. We asked several times for assistance, but the staff continued their stellar job of pretending we didn’t exist. Only after an hour of sweating and asking did someone casually inform us, "Oh yeah, the AC’s under repair." Thanks for the heads up. We were a group of 12 people, all of whom walked in with excitement and walked out with one unanimous decision: never coming back here again. If I had to rate the overall experience, I'd generously give it a 2 out of 10, mostly for the wooden benches — they held up under the weight of...
