They seemed to have done most things right - beautiful decor, the menu has the right apprach, the ambience is great, the location even great. But guess what? IT. DOES. NOT. WORK.
I want to like this place, and I will definitely come back to give it another shot.
But let me make a short list of areas of opportunity for them:
1. Not enough light to read the menu.
2. Dangerous walkways, side lighting that actually HIDES steps from your view.
3. Bad Menu layout for the Drink Menu. You can't tell the difference between the drink NAME and ingredients.
4. It took about 25 minutes for appetizers.
5. Poor service all around
6. Closes early on weekends????
7. Turned off lights when the restaurant was closed, even though customers were still there?
The waiter informed us that the kitchen would be closing in 15 minutes as soon as we arrived. That's fine - a bit disappointing, but fine. We decided to look at the menu and hurry up to order. Unfortunately, the waiter spent the entire 15 minutes hovering over us and asking multiple times if we were ready to order. Gimme a break dude, there is no light and I can't even read the menu.
We ordered our food and he ran away. Finally, about 10 minutes later, we found him again so that we could place a DRINK ORDER!
The food took forever to come out. Here's the long and short of it:
- Mixed Grill kabob appetizer: Shitty. Don't bother.
- Non Veg Caesar Salad: delicious and welcome, as a good salad is (unfortunately) a rare find in Bombay.
- Chicken & Celery gyoza: steamed not fried. Standard, nothign special.
- Lamb Pasta: delicious.
