4 /5 JSH: The restaurant wasn’t busy, just a few families inside, so it felt a bit strange when the server immediately asked if we had a reservation. We put in our starter and main course orders together, and the pacing turned out to be the biggest issue. It took about 40 minutes for the first starter to arrive, another 10 minutes for the rest, and the main course actually showed up before all the starters.
The ambience is too good with nice lights, chandeliers, and colorful furniture. It’s a place that looks warm and inviting the moment you walk in.
Corn fry was our favorite. Chicken lollipops were okay, and the Apollo fish fry didn’t work for us. The street style bandi noodles and fried rice were solid, and the Donne biryani was the highlight of the meal. The fry piece biryani, on the other hand, was pretty bad, but the owner replaced it as a courtesy, which we appreciated.
The chikoo milkshake had good flavor but was way too sweet, so we couldn’t finish it.
Overall, the place needs some fine tuning, especially on service and timing. It’s a new spot, so hopefully things improve on our next visit.
