2 star rating - terrific food, terrible dining experience. It is not a fine dining restaurant as claimed, it is a restaurant with good food and very loud DJ music. A stunning restaurant with tastefully done interiors and what seems like a promising dining delight, unfortunately the latter is not true. The menu is full of exquisite options from across India, embracing local cuisines which stood out the most. Gentleman taking our reservation had informed us of a live band retro music performing 9.30 pm onwards to which we said alright. He failed to inform us there would be a Loud blasting DJ playing EDM 8.30 pm onwards which lasted till 10.30pm.
At one point I did consider just leaving the place altogether at cost of embarrassment in front of my guests at my own birthday dinner. I feel worse because the The food is actually outstanding, justifies the tall praise and expectations set of a Michelin star chef set menu. Although, Highly disappointing dining experience, only because the DJ refused to lower the sound inspite of repeated requests. We sat in silence and finished our meal as we could barely even hear our own voice. The waiter was polite but seemed helpless and did not bother escalating our concern despite a written feedback. He didn't even attempt to give any special attention to a birthday dinner.
A simple submission to the management - please keep fine dining separate from loud party event nights as the two just do not mix unless if maintaining a certain standard is not of any importance. It is a single large area and the mezzanine floor is exposed to the loud speakers. The reservation desk should be mindful. They couldve guided us to come on a decent night if there exist any. It was shocking as good friends in F,&B industry recommended this restaurant for my birthday dinner , I must update them the place has lost all its class they once knew of. Birthday dinner spoilt by lack of regard for food lovers who simply want to appreciate good dining options with family and friends over good conversations.
Highly...
Read moreWe went here for dinner of a weeknight and loved the absolutely beauty ambience! The decor was striking.
They have indoor and outdoor seating available, and a first floor area reserved for private events.
The place was a bit dull , the vibe wasn’t very lively , the service was also lacking , they took a very long time to get our food, we had to ask repeatedly for it.
We got a rosé and whiskey for drinks, the price was okay.
Although the presentation for everything was lovely, the food was a let down. There wasn’t much uniqueness or attention given to the flavours, very basic and almost underwhelming.
For starters we got the katayif cheese roll, we quite liked this! The texture was unique and the sweet and savoury mix of flavours was enjoyable.
The platter we got was a let down, there wasn’t anything special to it and the quantity was quite poor.
The butter chicken balls were a fun resist, and tasted quite good too, we ate them with some garlic naan which was fresh and soft.
The dehati murg was quite sweet, and very very strong with “hing”, it was used excessively in all dishes.
I enjoyed the prawn curry, in a coconut milk base . It was served with steamed rice.
The desserts were fun! The jalebi with Rabdi was good but very standard, and again very very poor in quantity. We however really liked the “chocolate delice”
Overall a good place if you want to try some modern twist to classic...
Read moreTHE WORST CULINARY SAGA - FROM A MICHELIN STAR CHEF RUN RESTAURANT IN GURGAON. This is my honest feedback to whom so ever it may concern. We dined in on 14th August 21. We called them to make a booking and they said you will have to wait at the bar. Whilst we waited at the bar the waiter said that no beers were available although over phone they had confirmed that they were serving Buds on tap. So we sat at the bar with no beer till such time they could get us a table. Whilst at the bar we noticed that bar bench was not clean and looked neglected. It really wasn't a pleasant start of the evening. Finally they gave us a high table at the 1st level. Well anyhow we were hungry and ordered food at 8.27 pm and the food came out at 9.30pm almost after an hour's wait. They got us Cold Plates. Even more shocking was that they served us cold food as well. We ordered two main dishes and a Dessert. Naan Galia - the mutton dish was overcooked and apart from a couple pieces it was mostly shredded meat in sauce and Murg Makhani Sangam - Chicken Tikka pieces in the in the dish were dry and not succulent. Bengali Brulle dessert tasted stale and was a thorough disappointment. The Garlic Naan was good at least they got that right. The experience which we had certainly doesn't justify a restaurant run by a Michelin Star Chef. We went with high expectation but came out with the worst Culinary ...
