pros-
1.different and wide menu
2.well designed restaurant, parking is not all a issue
3.located at Ayanavaram where there is no decent restaurant either you have to goto Kilpauk or Anna Nagar East if you are in this locality
4. U will enjoy the food if you choose the correct items (cleary explained in cons)
5. chef walks down to you and enquire about the dish and our likings (check point 4 in cons)
cons-
1.not happy with the pricing when compared to the quantity provided.
2. first time I was awestruck when had their Bao, khakra, gulab jamun cheesecake but second and third when explored their small and Periya plates felt food was average... let it be naan or biriyani or chicken... very normal nothing to boast about.
3. with relevance to point 4 in pros, selected times are really good and right pricing but on contrary, a cheesecake for 200+ excluding service charge and taxes?? meanwhile how can you charge service charge? have you checked with the customer whether he is okay with Ur service or whether you can include the service charge? Most of the customers like me doesn't question this because since you have prepared the bill we don't want to change the bill and make a scene there Wer other diners will be disturbed.
4. very good gesture for chef to directly ask the diners about the food but it turns out to be worst when the chef selects the diners with preference. all the 3 times I visited the restaurant was almost empty just few were dinning first 2 times he enquired select person I thought it was accindental but third time he walked through the diners and didn't enquire anyone instead settled before the TV because the rest of the bunch also resembled us...
If you don't treat your customers well then you are in big trouble!!
Yes,this place is absolutely worth celebrating.
Ambience-- I would give them 5/5 just for their ambience.I spent almost 45 mins taking pictures in and out.Outside the resto,you have got an outdoor seating with the chicks roaming around.With the 1900's set up and the gramaphone,every bit were adorable♥️♥️.Look at me,describing the ambience in tons of lines.????
Food- Another best part♥️♥️♥️we ordered,
????MALAI PANNER TIKKA--I am dieing????????.Enriched with cream,the panner Tikka tasted heavenly♥️♥️.I would have kept asking for it????if I were not allowed to taste any other. #mustorder
????Arbi pakoda--This is Desi potato wedges????♥️.The name gets the attention and so the wedges.The dip(both sweet and tangy),was damn♥️♥️♥️♥️. #mustorder.
????Vada Bao-- The stuff was nice and it was decent enough♥️
????Chicken biriyani-- This was not excellent but did not let us down for sure. They presented it pretty good♥️ with the chapathi wrapped on the top♥️
????Chicken patiala-- This was okayish for me while my friends liked it.
????Gulabjamun cheesecake-- To finish it off with a sweet tooth,this one cake was heavy for us ???? with 3 jamuns accompanying♥️♥️
Service-- It was superfast and prompt.
