The one thing you HAVE to order here is the Taftan - an arabic bread - small, round and white - and unbelievably soft - just melts in your mouth. Being a hard-core non-vegetarian, I never thought I would visit a restaurant just for the rotis, but the taftan is just heavenly ...
The menu is completely desi, with mughlai and biryanis occupying most of the place. And though the name may sound like being a non-veggie's delight, there are equal number of veg dishes to go around. And they have a open tandoor, so you can see your kebabs come right out of the tandoor ...
The ambience of the place is all quite nice, though the chairs/benches could be a little higher - its a little uncomfortable to get in/out for anyone over 5"9'. Infact compared to its Bandra and Andheri cousins, this outlet is quite upmarket, being situated in the posh Palm Court complex and a meal for two will be atleast Rs. 400
The staff is quite friendly and the service is good. Another interesting observation - though maybe just a co-incidence with me - was that the veggie dishes somehow ended up tasting better than the non-veg ones :) !! Yeah you heard it right ..
Tip - the head waiter (tallest one around) is quite knowledgeable and you should let him recommend some dishes to you ...
