We visited this hidden gem to try some Authentic Chinese! Could savour lip smacking authentic food of oriental cuisine and witnessed interiors depicting oriental theme, some of the highlights being the Idol of Buddha, oriental flower vasses, and Bamboo plants.
Got an opportunity to have fun conversation with the restaurateur to know more about their venture in the Hospitality business!
What we had - Soup - Wonton Garlic Soup (a clear soup with vegetable dumplings alongside fried garlic. Loved the flavour of garlic) Starters - Veg Postickers (beautifully well steamed dumplings with veggies) , Noodles wrapped Dumplings with Mint sauce (fried veg dumplings coated with fried Noodles). Mocktails - Green Buddha, Mint mojito, Fruit punch, Kala khatta. Main Course - Veg Shanghai Noodles, Vegetable in Hunan sauce, Vegetable in red pepper sauce, Pot rice (aromatic flavored rice with a tinch of spice and a tinch of sweetness.) Dessert - Tiramisu (a coffee flavoured Italian dessert), Chocolate Mousse, Honey Noodles with Ice-cream, Sizzling Brownie with ice cream.
Our recommendations - Veg Shanghai Noodles 🍜🤤
(drooling while saying this!!) Surely a highlight! Oriental Spice makes their own Noodles! The choice of veggies includes Babycorn, onion, and Red and Yellow Bell peppers. We think that the Noodles were tossed in Hoisin and Soy sauce. The aroma was quite pleasing!!!! Crispy fried Noodles were topped upon to add a tinch of crispness! @thehungerhormone gives the Taste a 5/5
It was complemented with Hot vegetables in Hunan sauce and Vegetables in Red pepper sauce (best!!!)
We also recommend Noodles wrapped dumplings and honey Noodles with ice-cream.
This place is great for meet up with friends, family, for business, and every time you crave some Authentic Chinese!
Highly...
Read moreOriental Spice, Dosti Imperia
My wife (a hardcore Parsi foodie) and self have been visiting this restaurant for 2 decades (since 2002) when they were located at Nitin Casting. During these times, we have really enjoyed the food both for taste and freshness and the restaurant had always lived up to it's name under the leadership of the husband/ wife duo and his loyal staff catering to their customers. They have grown over these years with a branch in Goa and another at Dosti Imperia, Thane. We have been visiting the Dosti Imperia branch fairly frequently and overall we have been satisfied with the quality of servings. Yesterday i.e. 17/05/2022 anticipating the same, we visited around 8:00 pm and we were the first to enter and place our order. We ordered, for a change, Pan fried Chicken noodles. Quite surprisingly the food was served quite fast. In tasting, we noticed that the noodles were "rubbery", soaked in oil and stale. There was no sign of crispy, pan fried noodles! On bringing it to the notice if the Manager, he replaced the same. This time we could get the crispy pan fried to our taste but the noodles were still soaked in oil. The Manager blamed it on the oil!! Later, we ordered for Chicken Spring Rolls which too to our surprise was soaked in oil, the spring roll cover was thick and only few bits of chicken. We requested the Manager to replace it but he refused to replace it blaming the oil. When asked to serve any other dish according to him which is apt and palatable. Again to our surprise, he said, we cannot serve you anything!! So in short, we just paid for Pan fried noodles and had to leave the restaurant dejected. Am sure and hopeful that the Owners do understand the severity of customer satisfaction and retaining loyal...
Read moreYou will be shocked after reading this review. We ordered chicken sizzler. When the waiter served it for the first time, I saw a tiny cockroach on the border of my plate. First I thought that its an ant & I ignored it. Then I told a waiter to serve me remaining part of the sizzler. At that time when he was serving, the bunch of little 8 to 10 cockroaches came out from under the metal plate of the dish & one medium size cockroach jumped on the table over the waiters hand. It was very very disgusting. I was very angry but kept my self-calm as other people were also eating in the restaurant. The waiter was arrogant since the beginning so reported this to manager. The manager was sorry but he also said that after every 15 days we pest control whole kitchen. But one thing is still in mind that if they do it then how come this incident has happened? Do they really check all the cutlery before opening the restaurant for the day or not? At the end they give you some complementary dessert to solve this issue. But instead of that they should more worried about health of the customer. It was worst experience. I want restaurant owner to know about this. so because of that writing this review. Hope it will reach to him & he will take...
