I had this place on my go-to list based on the reviews, but my visit didn't live up to the hype.
We got a table for six quickly, as it wasn't that busy. The atmosphere was okay, though it was quite dark inside, perhaps due to the black decor or the lighting.
Here's what we ordered:
- **Chicken Pepper Dosa - 8/10**
This was the second-best dish we ordered.
- **Idli - 6/10**
It was hard and, despite being the first thing we ordered, we received it after we had finished our dinner.
- **Mojito - 8/10**
- **Paratha - 10/10**
You can't go wrong with the paratha. These were made to perfection.
- **Creamy White Chicken Curry - 5/10**
This dish sounded appealing on the menu but lacked flavor and seemed to be missing salt.
- **Nellai Chicken Curry - 10/10**
The best dish on our table by far.
- **Schezwan Chicken Noodles - 5/10**
Lacked taste and didn't have the distinctive Schezwan flavor. It was just noodles with some seasoning.
It's rare for me to give bad reviews, but this place lacked a certain magic. I was disappointed because, as the restaurant got busier, the servers struggled to keep up. I saw two tables give the servers a hard time because they were waiting too long for their dishes, and one table got upset over not receiving cutlery.
We ordered chai, which never arrived even after waiting for 30 minutes. We eventually had to cancel it and leave.
Overall, the owner needs to consider hiring more staff, especially on busy weekends, and ensure consistency in their dishes. I might give this place another try when it's less busy, but my experience this time was very underwhelming. read more
