The Drinks we tried throughout the afternoon, included:

Heat Bloody Mary: It was more than a regular bloody Mary, with tangent kick of pepper, Tabasco and salt. It was heavenly.

Sunrise Watermelon Mocktail: As the name suggested, this was a muddled watermelon, mint, orange fizzy drink that refreshed to the sole. The Watermelon sliced garnishing made it so refreshing and joyous. Highly Recommended.

Lynchburg cocktail: Cherry Orange skewer, which made it look Glam. Lemon zing and cherry added gave it a kick to enjoy in every sip. Highly recommended.

In Starters, we tried their:

Chilli Garlic prawns: Beautiful medium sized butterfly prawns smeared with chillies and toasted garlic and white whine Bleure, with hint of lemon cooked to the perfection and served in a shot glass skewered.

Goat Cheese balls on Apple and Beetroot Coulie: Stuffed  with finest Goat cheese and topped with parsley and served halves on a Deep red Apple and Beetroot Coulie with hint of cinnamon and placed as streaks gave it an appearance of shooting stars.

Panko-dusted Crispy chicken tenders: It was super crisp, moist juicy inside and served along with Chilli mayo made us simply dig-in.

The second round of course was Followed by:

Mushroom Cappuccino: A flavorsome Gucchi Mushrooms brewered thick creamy and homogeneous flavored with bites of mushrooms coming in every gulp simply felt heavenly.

Garden green pizza and Jalapeno and smoked  chicken pizza: Both the Pizzas were handcrafted and topped with finest ingredients and superior grade cheese, which was not stringy, and had a perfect crust and neat flavors.

Penne Arabiata with Garlic Toasties: This one was truly exceptional because of the light, yet flavorful Arabita sauce and A generous drizzle of Olea Olive oil, which enhanced the taste to a Michelin level. Garlic

Mushroom risotto in truffle essence: The Truffle  essence of Mushroom and finest Risotto rice selection made it creamy and decadent, just like a truffle cake, but in mushroom flavors.

Stuffed chicken breast Mushroom sauce: A Chicken Roulette, stuffed with Cheddar, Bacon, Celery stalks perfectlt sliced and layered as a slider with Baby braised carrots and Asparagus, Baby corn, Zucchini and Dutche Potato sits on a saucer plate.

Grilled Herb Sole fish Olive compote: The Herb crusted buttered Sole fish served on Tangy Soft Artichoke on the bed of creamy Olive Compote made it a mouth meltin affair. The olive punch of the artichoke and sauce made the dish shine out altogether.

The Lazziz Affair had to end on a sweetnore and who can say no to some irresistible deserts.

Slice of Chocolate Cheese cake: Was a heavenly souffle cheesecake served along with Caramel Crystal and chocolate sauce drops.

Melting Moment  Chocholava with vanilla ice cream scoop: The Bruelle-Torch effect on the side made it look like a real volcano crust. The dusted sugar Ash on it was "Icing on the cake". The moment we gave it a scoop, the molten lava revamped the plate towards Ice-cream scoop, which is to Die For.

Overall, it will be impossible and Injustice to select few favorite amongst the lavish grub...

A new party place indeed!!! Situated amongst the hub of restaurants, this place is aptly resplendent. The interiors are embellished with a modern touch & luxt levels in both the floors and everything is illuminated in an extravagant fashion. Even the food menu is "quite lit up" with help of LED's that is quite distinctive from the others. This two storey property has got one bar each on both the floors accompanied with comfortable couches and extra cushioned wooden chairs. The Dj console has been placed intelligently on the first floor that overlooks on the floor beneath it and can be viewed from the ground floor bar! Overall, the look and feel is avidly trendy and polished that would be harmonius with party goers of Delhi NCR!

This "Ristorante" has a menu comprising of a humble mix of Mediterranean as well as Italian cuisine which is good in it's own manner. Invited over by the restaurant to try their menu, our group of 7 food connoisseurs were served appropriately over a decent span of time in an exhuberant way! The Bar is stocked with good options of liquor, liqueurs & wine. The bar man is able to prepare befitting cocktails as per your tastes or choices. If not in the mood for hard liquor, you can opt for beers just like I did! It really paired well the bacon doughnut chives cream, Buffalo Chicken Wings & Goat Cheese Balls With Apple Jelly!!! The surprising element for me was the Goat cheese balls that were small round bites which good sour taste combined with the sweet apple marmalade type sauce that was acted as a perfect condiment! The Buffalo wings was quite gratifying indeed with an indulging sauce! Even the Butter Garlic prawns served over the shot glasses had a classy feel to it. However, clearly the quantity of all the appetizers were a little less than expected.

The Main course comprised of a range of dishes that were cooked by the books but somehow extra finishing touches really lacked! Stuffed Chicken breast and Grilled sole fish were customary in tastes. While the Arrabiata sauce pasta was modest, the Garden Fresh Pizza delighted me extraordinarily! So was the Mushroom Risotto too! Desserts included a Chocolate Chessecake which was much gooey than usual and a Molten lava cake with Vanilla ice cream that was a surprisingly good!!!

The service was appropriate but a little more knowledge about food would be appreciated and it always acts as an golden key to any kind of courtsey! Overall, the place is favourable for you guys to get together with your near & dear ones for a carousel here amongst the "lit"...

I visited here to see a very popular British Psychedelic/Goa Trance DJ live. The venue is large but couldn't offer much space for dancing as it seems to be a lounge primarily. They had tried their best in moving the furniture around and offer as much they could. They offered seating on the 1st floor, and on ground floor as well. As the performer was well known to my friends circle so they were all into Spacetribe's rocking performance playing one of the best of his music. The crowd present was less in number but seemed to be very enthusiastic. I did rarely see anyone standing at the bar counter. We bought several drinks and it's hard to remember how much in total but we were 5 and everyone had at least 2 alcoholic drinks selling at a price more than we paid for the live show of Spacetribe lol. Not only they charged me Rs. 100 more than mentioned for "Bombay Sapphire" on their Bar menu, claiming that Bar menu is a bit older. They even charged "Service Charge" which is unethical practice and illegal too. Until last year I worked with hotel industry as a Barman at a 4* property (La Cabana, Ashwem) in Goa. They discontinued "Service Charge" since February 2017 as per the central government circular. And LIT charged me a "service charge". WOW, how can they do this being located at the most posh location in Delhi where mostly educated guests would check-in. I could have tipped the barmen or waiting staff as I always keep at least 10% of the billing amount, which is also considered as a Table manner in western countries. . But, as I was charged incorrectly, I refrained to do so. I am sure of not visiting LIT for cozying up with any of my friends though I might go there to see a favourite artist performing live.

Pros: appreciable sound system.

Cons: a) Incorrect billing procedure b) lack of enough space to organise events. c) very small washroom, I had to wait at least 20 minutes in a queue of 5-7 guys on every occasion trying to use it d) had no control over crowd to prevent them smoking inside as separate smoking zone offered a very small space, probably 50 sq. ft. e) poor lighting, only blue and red displayed (don't know if the manager of Spacetribe or the restaurant management has to be blamed for the same) f) overall experience unsatisfactory because of inadequate space for dancing area, smoking zone and washrooms and incorrect billing on...
