I was recommended to try Sunday lunch here by a friend, and having read the previous reviews I wondered why I hadn't tried it here before, so we gave it a go yesterday and had one of the best Sunday lunches, especially for the price, ever.
We loved the decor, very stylish and with lovely big windows with views over the city. We were shown to a table next to the window, and despite the place being very busy (advisable to book....) we received excellent service throughout. It's a set 3 course menu, limited choice but still enough for us. The antipasti was beautifully prepared, with hot char-grilled prawns and a smoked turkey salad, served with breads and various dressings, we were then brought a slice of wonderfully crisp light pizza. As the wine (included in the price) kept flowing, our main course arrived and the steak was very good, the crushed potato and onion it was served on even better.
Puddings were chosen from the normal restaurant menu, and were very traditional Italian, with semi-fredo, tiramisu (unfortunately sold out), gelato and a fantastic chocolate terrine.
The price was a very reasonable Rs 950 each, including the drinks, which is half what you'd pay for a less personal hotel buffet, though the food was equally enjoyable. We shall definitely return, and are looking forward to trying their normal restaurant menu as well.
