Finally we got a chance to try this restaurant on this Sunday.. As soon as we entered, we thought..wow what a place, ambiance is very good. Since we had booked the table in advance, we got the table immediately. and waited for food impatiently. The ambiance increased our expectation, but we were in for a big disappointment, mainly because we went for north Indian food, here its mainly south Indian cuisine with some north Indian dishes added, but that too not prepared in north indian way.
Started with soup and it was good, but in starters there was only one item..daal vada..

and then thali came..with paneer, rajma, potato,beans and sweet raita, with naan and chapati. naan and chapati were ok but not a single curry was tasty.There was lot of variety in rice, but without good curry we didnt enjoy anything. and waiting in between dishes just spoils your mood and apetite both.In dessert it was sort of payasam but flowing type, and gulabjamun and icecream. last two were good but he never asked for a second serving, ending it with a paan.

Good things there were seating, ambiance, silver crockery and cutlery and paan and a little dessert,but main food was not good and service for thali should be fast.

and all this for 1730/ for two..not worth it
