Location- Location is close to Rainbow Children's Hospital and Little Mount Metro Station. To get to the restaurant if you are driving from the saidapet side, you must do a U-turn below the Kathipara Bridge. If you are riding a bike, you can take the wrong turn below Little Mount Station by paying a fine to the police, like we did. First Impression- With 10 people, we drove to the restaurant, but when we arrived, a car was parked in front of the building entrance, making it difficult for us to enter. After getting out of the car, a valet parking attendant arrived to get the vehicle. It is a under renovation building with a lot of interior materials stored in the ground floor and a poorly maintained lifts that goes to the barbecue on the 10th floor of the building. Our first impression was not that great. Hospitality and Food taste- We offered a welcoming beverage and the restaurant's service was excellent the entire time we were there. Most BBQ food tastes below average, but this one is an exception. Everything from the starter to the platter and the biriyani was good. Ice cream, pizza ,Payasam (Kheer), and rabbit vera level. Once the building is completely renovated and If they keep up the same standard as they are now, it will be one of the best locations for BBQ. Overall its worth trying. Note-BBQ serves cocktail drinks.

Had the most horrible experience ever. 1.the place does not look like the pictures in Google. It is dirty stuffy and very suffocating. 2. The staff were extremely rude and inconsiderate. 3. There was no food in the buffet. We had to call the manager multiple times and she still did not respond. Each dish took 30 mins or more to get refilled 4. AC doesn't work. Place is very very dirty 5. Skewers are not refilled quickly. We have to call the waiter 10 times for 1 refill 6. Used skewers were not removed from table 7. Ordered drinks mocktails at start got at end. No one even drank it waste of money. 8. Very rude and inconsiderate managers 9. Staffs were not at all responding 10. All counters were empty and had no staff 11. Kulfi counter was switched off and had no kulfi 12. Half desserts were not there 13. Stale old chat was kept without any attenders 14. COCKROACH running on counters 15. No one even ate literally THERE WAS NO FOOD AT ALL. The buffet was literally empty. Even after all this when raised complaint the managers had the nerve to argue when the cook himself accepted and apologized for not able to give ANY FOOD LITERALLY EMPTY BUFFET for the whole 3 hours and still managers wanted us to pay full. Please don't go and waste your money WORST EXPERIENCE -1/10

in | dinner/ including tax Veg 820 - NV 900 Food taste was worst, Lots of improvement needed. First of all if u entered you will have a feel of getting into a smoke house with hot air blowing up all over the dining area. Left side tables r good, Right if u take u ll regret badly, The places AC was felt is the main course hall way but you can't sit there. Starters were average. Apart from food, the service was very very poor and they don't know how to handle the crowd..spoiled crab curry no curd rice even, veg is horrible, cold andra chicken. Plain prawns, Finally, their swipe machine didn't work... Overall, Ambience and Service needs to be improve a lot n lot, I saw some negative review still ignored and went but I have learned lesson most importantly don't trust reels in youtube insta etc, we are badly complaining and shouting one girl is doing her reels by giving positive review, since she paid for. Plate also not washed basic is serving water. Look at the picture am posting it's all not good food and not had left in table. It's worth for 250 per person.

One of the most famous buffet places in Chennai tagline has led me to check out this place but it turned out to be the worst experience I've ever had in a buffet starting from the crowd place to the below average food and service. Not even a single dish which was served as starters tasted good. I told them not to serve veg but they keep repeating the veg menu to my table. Honey chicken wings, mutton sheek, prawn everything that we had were very bland and bad in taste and low in quality. After the bad experience from the starters I was not even ready to try their main, just for the money that was paid I needed some justice so I tried their gravies and parotta almost all the gravies tasted the same and in the mutton in the mutton gravy was soo raw. Then tried out their biryani varieties again with the same amount of disappointment headed to dessert and the only good part was the gulab jamun everything else from the cake section was just the same base with different colours. This was the worst experience I've ever had from a buffet.

This branch opened recently in Little Mount. First of all we were thrilled to reach 10th floor for dine in, cause the building is old and its under renovation. The ambiance was good and nice panoramic view of city in side seats. The welcome drink was average bit flat. The starters were good. - Crispy corn, creamy potato, chiken , mutton ball,....... But we badly miss the honey garlic chicken. Barbeque items like prawn, fish, chiken, mushroom,..... were also good. The live counter has all Mongolian items and different types of sauces which was good. The wood fired pizza and indian breads also available. Regarding the main course its was a limited one for both veg and non-veg, but they have lots of sides variety. Deserts and pastries had some variety and it was good. The jelebi was not served with rabdi... Overall we had a nice and neat lunch at good ambiance. Regarding their services intially for setting up and serving it takes some time after that it was good. Mr.YAMIEN was attentive served us the required items. ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Food taste was OK, but Lots of improvement needed. First of all, getting into the building which is under renovation and climbing up 10th floor in an old lift was little scary due to safety issues. In 10th floor, you will have a feel of getting into a smoke house with hot air blowing up all over the dining area. The only place AC was felt is the main course hall way, but you can't sit there. Starters were ok kind but few dishes tasted good (prawns and guntoor chkn). Apart from food, the service was very very poor and they don't know how to handle the crowd. Moreover, as like other bbq shops they don't understand the native language and very hard to convince them to bring in a dish. (could be part of less food consumption strategy). Tired of speaking with these guys.... Finally, their Amex swipe machine didn't work... Overall, Ambience and Service needs to be improved or people would avoid this bbq shop going forward. (pls close the glass windows or stick some cooling stickers or install some shades to block direct sunlight)
