Yesterday, I visited Sitai Resto & Lounge for dinner with my wife, and unfortunately, the experience was not what we had hoped for.
We started with Paneer Lababdaar and butter roti. Since my wife enjoys spicy food, I specifically requested that the dish be prepared with some heat. However, it arrived overly sweet and lacking any spice. To make matters worse, we had to ask for the plate of onions and lemon, which should have been served with the meal.
Dissatisfied with the first dish, I ordered both vegetable biryani and chicken dum biryani for us to share. The wait for these dishes felt like an eternity. The vegetable biryani was particularly disappointing; the rice portion was inadequate compared to the vegetables, leaving us feeling unsatisfied. I expected a better ratio of rice to veggies.
As for the chicken dum biryani, while the rice was good and the portion decent, the chicken pieces were tough and chewy. There were only three pieces, and they resembled rubber more than tender chicken. The only highlight was the raita, which we enjoyed.
Overall, the food felt overpriced given the quality and service. While I understand that Sitai operates as a lounge and bar, that shouldn’t compromise the dining experience for families. The long wait times and the attentiveness of the staff are areas that need improvement.
Ratings:
• Paneer Lababdaar: 1/5 • Butter Roti: 4/5 • Vegetable Biryani: 3/5 • Chicken Biryani: 1/5
In summary, I left Sitai Resto & Lounge feeling disappointed. With some adjustments in the kitchen and service, it could become a much better...

Read moreThe service is exceptionally clumsy. 5 mins waiting time to just get the menu, as they are understaffed.
Ordered veg crispy, fish fingers and rozali kabab which was apparently the speciality of the day.
Veg crispy was not crispy at all and felt like it was cooked a while back and they just re-fried and served. On raising the concern the waiter just smiled and said "it's Sunday so the kitchen might have neglected, I will check". Not sure how this is an acceptable answer.
The speciality of the day i.e. rozali kabab was just bland, edible but surely not what you would expect.
The fish fingers were the only good dish for us. Guess they had made it fresh.
Also they don't have a dedicated wash basin, if you want to wash your hands before having food, wash them at home. The washbasin there is just...
