As i enunciated in one of my previous reviews on a restaurant, it is quite a rarity to find a restaurant that holds it's crown as a reputed fine dine with a creatively curated menu where the service too stands commendable, the antics and showcases too but most of all the food staying true to it's expected delivery or beyond. And this author is happy to tag Mauve as not just a unique gastronomical experience for the senses and the belly but also an indulgent ride into the graciousness of being a well-regarded fine dine that deserves a shoutout and a must-visit tag. From the first entre to the dessert, which involved Asian, continental and modern Indian cuisines transitioning seamlessly, the experience was rich and flavoursome. I was with a friend and rode our way scrupulously to this fancy restaurant and I was very excited to try it out. We were welcomed into a building with sublime lighting that sets the mood of tranquility and pleasure with tinge of intimacy. the staff were quite helpful and had good recommendations to make from the menu. We ordered the Palak Patta Chaat with Italian Burrata, Soonth Chutney and Mint Chutney, Kasuri Methi, Muttar Paneer Tikka, Edamame Sushi, African Jambalaya Rice, Grilled Vegetables, Roasted Tomato Sauce and finally, for dessert we ordered Chocolate, Chocolate, Chocolate and a Guava Smoked Paprika Mocktail. The Palak Patta Chaat was a divine dish that had ingredients that didn't make me miss the traditional Patta Chaat served on the street. Crisp, rich, tangy, sweet, spicy and every so slightly bitter, this dish has taken my breath away for it's creativity and expert preparation. The Kasuri Methi Muttar Paneer Tikka was unlike any other Paneer Tikka I ever tasted. Succulent, Soft and Sapid in every bite. A great balance of textures with the addition of crispy peas was a true testament of how this gastronomical experience doesn't think of where it ends but the start with the aromas, textures and tastes felt graciously in the mouth. Edamame Sushi was wholesomely flavorsome unlike any other Sushi I ever tasted. It had immense depth of flavour and intense accompaniments that elevated the humble sushi to unimaginable heights of taste. As we come to the African Jambalaya Rice, I couldn't help but think of it as African Dum Biryani with Vegetables on the side and instead of Raita we get a smoked tomato sauce. The middle eastern spice notes and aromatics imbued into the rice were magical and monumental. It was almost like the Indian version of Harissa with a touch of Italian Arrabiatta. The Guava Smoked Paprika Mocktail is an unconventional refresher to the palette. It was a Mocktail I could have any day of the week. And finally, the dessert was an epic dessert with theatrics of satisfaction. Neither too sweet nor too bitter but an overload of chocolate balanced by a cold large scoop of beautifully smooth vanilla ice cream. While the cost may be on the higher end, it certainly had me craving the taste of every morsel of food it served and I could crown Mauve as one of the best restaurants I have ever visited in Ahmedabad. Whether it's a day or a family outing to celebrate an occasion, this restaurant shall be on your list without fail for it's delectable food and commendable service. I tout it as...
Read moreHad been hearing alot about MAUVE from family and friends, though never came across any ad campaign of theirs, which actually made me visit this place as I give more weigh to word of mouth than paid adverts.
As we entered we had to walk across a small maze like path leading to the main building, upon reaching the the door we were greeted with a welcoming smile and the hostess politely asked us our details and then lead us to our table. We were impressed by the subtle interior and the fine dine aura they have created.
We ordered
Mushroom Truffle Risotto - love the richness of the dish.
Asparagus & Babycorn Sushi - 👌 loved it, served with wasabi as well as wasabi mayo for light hearted diners
Veggie Sushi - was good too.
Grill Me Up Bao - soft cushion texture baos stuffed with grilled veggie coated in a delicious sauce.
Thai Mushroom Dimsum - they were not only treat for the palate but for the eyes too..
Bharwan Mushroom - perfect balance of the spices.
Live Patta Chat + Italian burrata - yes the star of the lunch - palak patta chaat with burrata cheese, sounds bizzare but they have created a perfect jugal bandi, highly recommended. They create the dish live on the table👍
Neapolitan Pizza 🍕 with extra buffala mozzarella and it was just perfect 😋
and a few drinks...
We ended lunch with their shahi tukda and chocolate chocolate chocolate (yes it's 3 times chocolate in the menu too) deserts. Both class apart.
The serving staff was courteous and had knowledge about the dishes served and even suggested which condiment complimented which dish.
Over all a very satisfactory lunch, will be definitely going back to explore the...

Bakers Dozen pizza (thin crust) - it was just amazing in taste, we again repeated the order. Guacamole, olive tomato relish , sour cream dip, chips - basically a platter with chips and dips. Was good enough in taste Edamame truffle oil (dimsums). The layer was super thin, soft . Usually chefs make the dimsums chewy but this one was bang on..We all loved it. It was given a slight black tint with charcoal. 6.Cold coffees and shakes - Superb in taste. They cater to your needs and specifications ( best part). . We had a bill of per head 680 rupees .
