The important feature about it is that though they have a really classy and chic ambience, they haven't compromised with the quality of food. The food items were well balanced in terms of flavour. We ordered Majlisi kebab and Subz Galawat kebab in the starters and both of them were flavourful, esp the subz Galawat kebab (it is a must try). The food was pricey though which is a slight drawback. If you're willing to spend somewhere around 2-2.5k, it will be the approximate bill for 3 people (comprising of starters, main course and desserts). Coming to the ambience, this place is colourful, vintage and classy. They have achieved in creating an atmosphere of those Irani cafes in Bombay. The place was quiet, serene, unlike those noisy cafes and it was exuding rich vibes. The ambience was far far superior than most of the cafes in the city. This is literally an Instagrammable cafe. This place deserves full stars for the ambience. Coming to the staff, they were very courteous and the service was prompt.
