The menu of this restaurant is recommended to Chinese and Indian cuisine lovers. The cooks here prepare good spring rolls, paneer and malai kofta. Try nicely cooked gulab jamun, fruit ice cream and grilled pineapple Smelling Salts offers. After a long working week, you can taste great chocolate frappe, fruit punch or bread drink.

This place is well known for its great service and friendly staff, that is always ready to help you. From the guests' point of view, prices are attractive. You will certainly like the pretty ambiance and spectacular decor. Based on the visitors' feedback on Google, this spot deserved 4.2.

Unhygienic AVOID! Unhygienic, Overpriced, and Depressing - Smelling Salts, Ashok Vihar is a DISASTER If you're considering dining at Smelling Salts in Ashok Vihar, please, for the sake of your health, your wallet, and your overall dining experience, choose another restaurant. My recent visit was nothing short of a nightmare, and I feel compelled to share this detailed review to warn others. This establishment fails spectacularly on multiple fronts: unhygiene, exorbitant prices for pathetic food, and a truly depressing atmosphere. Let's start with the most concerning aspect: the unhygienic conditions. From the moment we were seated at a sticky table that clearly hadn't been properly cleaned, red flags started to appear. Throughout our meal, I couldn't help but notice a disturbing lack of cleanliness. Dust clung to the light fixtures, and the cutlery looked like it had seen better days. I even spotted what appeared to be food debris under our table. The state of the washrooms was frankly appalling – dirty sinks, no soap, and a general sense of neglect. In a post-pandemic world, basic hygiene is non-negotiable, and Smelling Salts utterly fails in this crucial area. This isn't just about aesthetics; it raises serious concerns about food safety and the overall management's commitment to basic health standards. If you value your well-being, this alone should be enough to deter you. Adding insult to injury, the food at Smelling Salts is ridiculously overpriced for the abysmal quality you receive. The menu reads like a gourmet experience, but the reality is far from it. The dishes we ordered were bland, poorly prepared, and clearly made with low-quality ingredients. My "signature" dish was a tasteless concoction that looked unappetizing and tasted even worse. The portions were meager, leaving us feeling ripped off and still hungry. To charge such exorbitant prices for food that tastes like it came out of a poorly managed canteen is simply outrageous. You can find far better quality and larger portions at significantly lower prices at numerous other restaurants in Ashok Vihar. Smelling Salts seems to be banking on a fancy name without delivering on any culinary merit. Finally, the atmosphere of Smelling Salts is utterly depressing. The decor is drab and uninspired, creating a cold and unwelcoming environment. The lighting is harsh and unflattering, making the entire dining area feel sterile and devoid of any warmth or ambiance. The background music, if you can even call it that, was a monotonous drone that did nothing to enhance the dining experience. The staff seemed equally unenthusiastic, adding to the overall feeling of gloom. There was no sense of hospitality or any effort to make diners feel comfortable or welcome. Instead of a pleasant evening out, dining at Smelling Salts felt like being stuck in a poorly maintained waiting room. In conclusion, my experience at Smelling Salts in Ashok Vihar was overwhelmingly negative. The unhygienic environment is a major health concern, the overpriced and underwhelming food is a blatant rip-off, and the depressing atmosphere makes for a truly unpleasant dining experience. I strongly urge anyone looking for a decent meal in Ashok Vihar to avoid this restaurant at all costs. There are countless other establishments in the area that offer better food, cleaner surroundings, and a much more enjoyable ambiance without emptying your wallet. Smelling Salts needs a complete overhaul in its hygiene practices, pricing strategy, food quality, and overall atmosphere to even begin to be considered a viable dining option. Save yourself the disappointment and dine elsewhere. Food: 1 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 1

Table reservation system is pathetic. They even refuse to honour their own reservations of table and tell to wait with vague excuses. Total mismanagement, very embarrassing before guests. A dining with lot of noises....their service staff themselves talk very loudly with each other making it a noisy mess......exactly machhlibazaar. not at all a peaceful atmosphere with guests.
