Discovered this place randomly while walking past sector 104 // . The wait at the elevators was long so climbed up the floors, while the family came up later.
Loved the first impression and the ambience as I walked in.
The indoors was stuffy and bit dusty, although the air-conditioning was very good for the October weather. I wish restaurants start to use air purifiers. Thankfully they have large and vibrant outdoor seating with coolers so we decided to sit outside.
The music was not to my taste in the beginning when we started off, but It improved later. There is something about the energies of the team here which I didn’t seem to like. While they were extremely courteous, someone needs to tell them not to come too close while talking.
Although friends and family I was with didn’t mind the place so maybe it was just me.
The menu pricing seemed a bit on the higher side especially since the servers although extremely courteous seemed untrained.
Another challenge was they didn’t have single person portions or combos. The menu is mixed and seemed not thought through, which was surprising considering they are present across three cities // so I am sure they know the tricks of the trade between than a lone reviewer :) e.g. I ordered egg fried rice and was told it will be with chicken // ended up just ordering veg instead. The Chinese gravy portions did not have options of rice for a single person. They had Thai starters but no Thai curry and rice, which seemed odd. The food was decently well portioned and satiating, plus i was really hungry. The portion was good for two people.
We ordered some cocktails from the menu and the server was explaining to us that it has alcohol // and he hoped we knew what we were ordering // which was weird // and a bit unpleasant and Not the best of experiences. I think we should have not ordered the cocktails either when we heard this since they were very badly made // the senior team member was courteous enough and prompt to offer changing it. Which was nice.
I anyways wasn’t drinking so ordered the food right away so the beverage reviews are basis the groups review. //
I asked for some sparkling water which they didn’t have, so I asked what soda did they have // was told its catch and then the server brought me kinley // which I returned with another disappointment.
The beer mug was a delight since it was frosted // but the beer that we thankfully checked was warm so that seemed like an oxymoron//
Disappointed that such a lovely place with a great view and ambience is being wasted. Overall others whom I was with quite enjoyed the place but for me personally I am Not sure if I would ever...

Read more"A restaurant with great food and ambience but poor service is like a beautiful book with missing pages—no matter how good the content, the experience is poor." I went to the place for a dinner yesternight with my family. The ambience seemed nice. The restaurant was almost full and a birthday party was being celebrated in the open space. However, as the night proceeded we started to have feeling that we have made a mistake to decide to dine in there. No one came to take the order for at least 45 mins until we asked the waiter to please take the order. We ordered a bucket of Bud with some starter food which arrived timely. However, instead of Buds, they brought Hoegaarden and without us noticing waiter opened 2 bottles. As we had a glance at that, we told him that we had ordered Budweiser. With all the chaos going on in the restaurant and all the (little) restaurant staff managing between serving the birthday guests & the dining guests and the 2 managers, who seemed lost and not bothered at all about what is going-on on different tables, multiple waiters were coming to us and asking about the problem occurred and seemed confused until we told them its ok.. since you have already opened two bottles .. just replace the rest 4 of the bucket. Then again no one bothered about what cutlery we have .. if have sufficient plates or not .. we had to call the waiter again and again for these things.. And even after asking .. they were like threw 15 forks on our table when we were 8 people.. Then we had ask for spoons which they got us in next 10 mins.. As we finished our starters.. we had to again call them to please clean the table.. as they were not at all looking at the tables.. Later we called them again to take main course order, as no one came by themselves. Food again arrived timely. However, the breads were all cold and dry.. the dal makhani was so dilute as they had added water to 1 qty of dal to make it 2 bowls of dal ..They did not serve us pickle plate (green chutney & Vinegar onion) which we again had to ask them explicitly.. We were all very much frustrated for their service and to eat such bad food. Even though rest of the food was fine but we were left with a bitter taste due to their...
