‘Negative Review - Late post’

We visited the restaurant @5 Oct 2024 - around 15.00 Hrs - we had ordered Dhokla, Pav Bhaji and Regular Thali but I'M BEING VERY HONEST, and please, no hard feelings, but I believe in being transparent, and my reviews are always unbiased. Unfortunately, the food was NOT up to the mark! 😕

The Dhokla was TOO COLD and super sweet, with a soggy texture. As for the Pav Bhaji, don't expect the authentic taste of Mumbai, as the owner ENJOYS caters to ONLY Fiji customers, who preferring a sweet-tangy flavor instead. This is based on the assumption that Fiji customers enjoy this taste more than the authentic masala (NOT necessarily SPICY, but rich with the real taste of vegetables and Pav Bhaji Masala). For the Thali, the curries were cold and WATERY, with the thick gravy separating and settling at the bottom, resulting in a bland and TASTELESS experience.

We were really hungry while ordering the food, but We couldn’t finish the food which left us unsatisfied and HANGRY! lol!!😂

I'm not sure about their mithai or sweet items—they looked mouth-watering and delicious, but I didn’t get a chance to try them on that visit. Sorry!

The owner, Rameshwar, appeared to listen to feedback but seemed unwilling to accept it gracefully. I appreciate his professionalism, but I am disappointed with the overall experience. 1/5...

I recently dined at Shree Restaurant, and it was nothing short of an extraordinary culinary experience.

The highlight of my visit was the traditional Rajasthani food dal baati churma 🥰, which was an authentic representation of rich culinary heritage. Every dish was a masterpiece, crafted with care and bursting with flavors that transported me straight to the heart of Rajasthan. The spices were perfectly balanced, and the freshness of the ingredients was evident in every bite.

The service was impeccable, with attentive staff who were knowledgeable about the menu and eager to make recommendations. They ensured that my dining experience was comfortable and memorable, attending to every detail with a smile.

What truly sets Shree Restaurant apart is their commitment to authenticity. Every dish stayed true to traditional recipes, and it was clear that a lot of love and passion went into the preparation. It was like tasting a piece of home-cooked food, made with the utmost care.

In conclusion, Shree Restaurant offers an unparalleled dining experience with its authentic traditional food, warm ambiance, and exceptional service. It's a must-visit for anyone looking to savor the true flavors of Indian cuisine. I can’t wait to return and explore more of their exquisite...
