24 Carats Multi Cuisine Restaurant — Restaurant in Gujarat

I planned to visit Mandap restaurant but due to huge rush on a weekend, changed my plan and went down stairs to 24 Carats.

This place is now a joke in the name of buffet. They served us cold starters and the servers took their own sweet time to even see whether water was served.

The chicken wings or whatever they called the starter looked as if cooked hours back and was just thrown on the plate. It was dry, hard and flavorless. The fish starter was served fresh but then you'd have to wait for 10-15 mins for them to prepare a new batch.

The fun started when we went towards salad. There was an item called aloo chaat which was awfully sweet. I understand the affinity in Gujarat towards making food a bit sweet but who makes sweet chaat? The ones found with the street vendors is 100 times better.

There was only 2 non veg option in the main course out of which one was egg. Who eats egg curry in buffet? They seriously need to think about the menu.

The biggest culprit was the baked veggies (Veg Au Gratin) which didn't have cheese. It felt as if the sauce was made with flour and nothing else. There was a raw taste of flour and the veggies were not cooked enough due to which there was a strange crunch in those unrecognizable vegetables.

The limited dessert option was a saving grace. I had heard good things about this place and hence went there. This is probably the last time I...

Wow!! Really loved this restaurant. I have to share one experience which I thought was worth mentioning. I had called up the restaurant and informed them to book a seat for me as I was the only one going for the dinner buffet. Initially they told me that it would be difficult for me to find a table as the restaurant is crowded over the weekends, however they still told me to come over and they would help me find one. When I reached there, they did manage to find a seat for me and the table offered to me was actually meant to seat 6. However I was the only one occupying the table...Coming to my review now

This multi cuisine restaurant is located inside Express Hotel Tower. The rates are normal 650/- per person + tax compare to the hotel rates 4.5 stars. They have unlimited fix Punjabi buffet and you can rebook the seating if needed. The service were awful and food was good. The quality was good enough but experiencing so my different taste of Punjabi food from different locations this hotel taste sounds normal. The whole cuisines were made by the special chef. I didn't like starters and noodles specifically has they were too salty. But i love the gourmet ice cream. For gujrati thali the restaurant is different name Mandap in...
