Read moreWe went for dinner around 8pm. The place looked and felt lively and the overall vibe was comfortable. However, the food was very disappointing. We had the pizza Margherita, spaghetti carbonara and fish & chips and for drinks, a virgin mojito each.
The pizza was greasy and really floppy, you can't eat it without folding it or without cutlery, which beats the whole appeal of having pizza. The cheese they used for the carbonara had a very sharp taste/smell, similar to goat's meat, which we found off putting (this may vary person to person) and the fish and chips was very mediocre. I can't fathom why they don't just serve a single large fillet of fish instead of tiny cutlets. The chips weren't that great and the tartare sauce was lacking flavour.
The virgin mojitos however, were the worst offender as they used crystal sugar instead of sugar syrup, which meant that almost none of the sugar had dissolved into the cold mixture and were all collected at the bottom. If you dipped your straw too deep, all you got was sugar chunks, akin to drinking sand. And if you pulled your straw upto a shallower part of the glass, there was no sweetness at all. When we asked the staff if this could be fixed, they were quite polite and said yes and took our drinks. But when they brought it back, little had been done to change it.
This entire review might sound a bit snobbish, but for a restaurant charging 2.5-3 times more than other regular restaurants, there has to be an improvement in quality which I could not...
Read moreOverall I really like this restaurant till the point it became my place to go for dinner during my stay in Kathmandu. I tried different dishes on the menu and my favourite ones were the nachos (the vegetables are very well season and it has a spicy hint which a really love, really great flavour and nothing like those nachos that are heavy and mix with lots of things) and grilled chicken (which it is very nice for a change after many days enjoying the local cuisine). The pizza is also good and the sandwiches are actually great. If you come around 7pm, the place is lovely, great atmosphere and not too busy. From 8:30pm it gets quite busy as many people come here for pizza and drinks. The have a good selection of drinks and cocktails. I tried their cheesecake and brownie and they were good too. The service is also good. I would like to mention Astha who welcomed me and my husband every night with a big smile. She was lovely, very professional and made us feel special. She is definitely very valuable for the team and I hope they know she...
