Santript — Restaurant in Ghaziabad

Review

Santript Veg Restaurant in RDC Ghaziabad is like a culinary carnival where every dish is a parade and the furniture is the colorful confetti. Walking in feels like entering a vibrant art gallery—if the art was made of delicious paneer starters, Chinese delights, and South Indian classics, and the frames were bright, bold colors that might make a rainbow look monochrome.

Let's talk about the paneer starters, which are basically the edible equivalent of a standing ovation. The Paneer Tikka here is so good it should have its own fan club. Each piece is marinated with such enthusiasm that you’d think the chef was auditioning for a cooking reality show. It's so tasty that if I could, I'd build a shrine for it in my living room.

Then there’s the Chinese section, where the Spring Rolls are less like an appetizer and more like a mini party rolled up in crispy goodness. Each bite is a confetti cannon of flavor, and you’ll find yourself dancing in your seat because, frankly, these rolls are just too good to keep still.

And don't get me started on the South Indian dishes. The Masala Dosa at Santript is a sight to behold. It’s so large it could double as a small tent if you were ever in need of emergency shelter. When you roll it up, it practically sings the anthem of South India. Pair it with their sambar, and you’ll be swimming in a sea of flavors that makes your taste buds want to do the cha-cha.

The vibrant furniture, which might have been borrowed from a circus tent, adds a touch of whimsy to the experience. It’s like eating in a kaleidoscope—if a kaleidoscope also served fantastic food. The colors are so bright and cheerful that you half expect the chairs to start dancing along with you.

Service at Santript is so attentive that you might start to think the waiters are psychic. They appear with your favorite dishes before you even realize you're craving them. It's like they’re reading your mind, or maybe they're just really, really good at their job.

In summary, Santript Veg Restaurant is a feast for both your taste buds and your eyes. With its lively furniture and even livelier dishes, it’s a place where eating becomes a joyous, multi-sensory adventure. So, put on your best appetite and get ready to dive into a kaleidoscopic culinary experience. You’ll leave with a full belly, a smile on your face, and possibly a newfound appreciation for the colorful...

Style Without Substance-

Recently, I had the opportunity to visit Sanstript, a restaurant that initially impressed with its aesthetic appeal. The ambiance and interior décor were undeniably elegant and tastefully done. The lighting, seating arrangement, and overall vibe exuded sophistication and suggested a promising dining experience. Unfortunately, what followed was a sharp contrast to the expectations set by the decor.

The food was a major letdown. While we ordered a variety of vegetarian dishes, including Paneer Tikka, we were collectively disappointed by the quality. The paneer used tasted artificial(NAKLI or FAKE), and the texture felt processed — far from the freshness one would expect at the high price point. To make matters worse, the food was served cold. Only the stuffed naan in the first round stood out slightly in taste, but when reordered, it lacked the same flavor and freshness. Garlic naan was below average, and the quantity of snacks was disproportionately small for the price charged. I definetly don’t have any food recommendation to try at this place.

VERY IMPORTANT: A particularly disturbing experience was the service charge scam. Despite not ordering any alcoholic beverages, we were billed an unsolicited service charge. The staff never informed us about this addition, which is both misleading and unethical. As per standard norms, service charges should be clearly communicated, especially when added by default. This left us feeling cheated and raises the concern that other unsuspecting diners might be similarly taken advantage of.

The environment was equally chaotic. A loud kitty party was taking place during our visit, and the noise level was comparable to a fish market. There seemed to be no management intervention to maintain a pleasant dining atmosphere. On top of everything, parking was a nightmare. The restaurant lacks dedicated parking, forcing us to search for over 15 minutes to find a spot far from the location — adding unnecessary inconvenience to an already disappointing visit.

In summary, while Sanstript impresses at first glance, the core elements that matter — food quality, transparency in billing, management, and customer comfort — fall drastically short. With exorbitant pricing and substandard service, this is not a restaurant I would recommend or revisit. Everything at these place from before entering to exit was...

I am sharing my review again as I was requested to remove my review but it was disheartening to hear from one of my guest yesterday. They gave me the feedback that you wasted your money in birthday party. Food was tasteless, service was very bad and they were serving the cold drink in used glasses.( My guest view). They ate the dinner outside after going from the party by seeing the colddrink served in used glasses.

My view: We had a birthday party on 6th june 2023. Food which was served to us at the end of the party was good but their service of starter and main course was very bad for the guest. Even the main course service was so slow that our guest kept waiting for the dinner to be served. We had booked butterscotch icecream but we were served vanilla during our function. Dinner served was not hot. Our guest were not satisfied. They charged full money per head but the guest who arrived late were not served with the starter.

Suggestion: there should be more waiter for serving the gathering of 60-70 person or they should not take booking for serving more than 50 person if they don't have proper staff. Rather than providing starter at table by waiter,they can offer trolley for starters so that guest can have starter according to their wish. We booked some of our starters without onion and garlic. When guest asked about onion their waiter served it saying all the items are without onion and garlic ( Jain food). Then we asked manager he said the items which were selected with onion were containing onion. They made our guest unhappy and no one was happy at the party because of the service provided and mismanagement.

Food service should be managed properly so that guest won't have to wait so long. I request the owner and management not to ask me to remove my review as this review will help others in taking a wise decision before booking this banquet.

We got the hall decorated by the decorator they provided named Mr. Vineet. Never get your hall decorated with him. We took a theme baby boss, he mixed the decoration on table with the cocomelon theme. The entry gate balloon got faded due to sunlight. The colour of balloons was not as...
