This place has their own bar running parallel to it, so had been to check if the restaurant was open. The guard advised to go the family dining area. The waiter got a bottled water bottle to which we said no and there was a dislike on his face.After asking for normal water served, told him that we want it cold, he complained that he will have to bring the ice!!The food we ordered was quite the opposite, the Sabji( in terms of the ingredients it was made of)...we were just 3 of us in the restaurant and they took forever to serve. The Starter ( some Kebab was dry and salty)They burnt all Rotis and Parathas we ordered.

Read moreFull marks for a peaceful fine dining. Pleasant ambience and ultimate to take your family or for corporate lunch or dinner. But when it comes to few food items in the menu, there is a big confusion. Black pepper chicken is not what you get commonly outside.

Except for the booze that you get here, I did not find anything worth the money spent. On a second thought, any place offering a place to sit-out and drink, rarely gives you good food options.
All the snacks that we ordered were served late, cold and after multiple follow-ups.
Terrace seating is available, but, that doesn't help you ignore the poor customer service and the pathetic hygiene that is visible.
The PAN shop outside the CHINAR, was rather much appealing to me.
