Heard alot about this place, so took my mum along! Diagonally opposite the CCD at 4th block, Jayanagar, it's an easy place to find. Not to mention, it's a rooftop restaurant, so that's a no brainer.
PARKING : There was no valet parking as such, but it was a monday so I'm not sure if it was the monday blues / I saw no one at the counter. There's parking available just to it's opposite side.
AMBIANCE : There's a smoking and a non-smoking seating zone. One side is for the cozy ambiance, the other being an open area. Minimal decors. Neat and tidy washrooms.
WHAT I ORDERED :
MOCKTAILS: Richmond Red : Watermelon, Cranberry Juice, Pomegranate! I love the combination and loved the drink as well.
Old Madras Passion : Orange, Mint and Passion fruit blended together which was delicious!
STARTER : Veg and Corn Bombe : LOVED it! Cheesy, corny, the mayo was good and so was the garlic sauce along!
MAIN COURSE : Pesto Cream Pizza : One of the best pizzas I've had in a Looooong time! The waiter recommended this, and we were really happy with how it tasted. The portions were big and taste, AMAZE!
Penne Alfredo White Sauce Pasta : This is my regular dish where I order all the time, but here at the rooftop, the taste could have been better as the pasta was too bland.
Did not have time / space in our tummy for the dessert but overall, the service was good. Oh, they did take time serving the dishes, which was a little annoying as it was a Monday evening and was not crowded as well but the service was Slooooow. I recommended this place to my friend and she had the same issue with the slow service :/ Loved the food though! Hopefully the management improves with time management :)

Read moreQuite a nice place to go on a weekday for brunch/lunch/dinner. The view of south Bangalore from the top is just stunning and the perfect setting for a late evening dinner. Mock-tails were really good and so were the starters, I would recommend you to try the lotus stem with soy ginger sauce (request the staff to give you the mint chutney with this). The jalapeño cheese popper was also really good but the plating they do is horrible, I fail to understand why they put some horrible unappetising looking pink sauce with kind of tastes like mayonnaise but honestly it was bad to look at, even the bruschetta had the weird pink sauce but taste was quite good. Coming to main, I was quite surprised by the quality of pizza, absolutely loved it the sauce they use is really good and very well seasoned, the only thing I would like is some olive oil drizzled on top. The pesto pasta on the other hand was just fine, too cheesy for my liking which completely overpowered the light flavour of the pesto, the bread was quite nice though. Now, we had heard a lot about the panna cotta and were expecting it to be really good, but nope, it was quite hard and over set and lacked the “jiggle” that is expected from the Italian dessert, also I would personally ask them to slightly reduce the amount of blueberry sauce they put over the top.
