We visited this restaurant recently, and the food taste was really good. However, the service was not up to the mark and the biggest problem was that there was a big difference in the timing of food that was being served, which really made a portion of the food called and a portion of the food hot, probably because they were very occupied. The same feedback was passed on to the chef who had come to take feedback, but he really did not do much about it and just left with an apology. The food and ambience of the restaurant is really good. However, for the price, it is not up to the mark.
This signature restaurant presents a delightful offering of delectable vegetarian food from the magnificent royal Kitchens of India. Guided by the precepts of Ayurveda, much of the cuisine on offer is attuned to the season, observing the ideal combination of tastes. The concept of the Royal Vegetarian Menu is manifested on three imperative factors. The first being the philosophy of taste or rasa, second being the food crop, vegetables, fruits and grains available round the year and finally followed by the Perennial availability of the fruits and vegetables according to the six seasons on the stretch of every two months in the Indian Calendar. The Indian sub-continent experiences six seasons and hence our food requirements are as per that particular season. With every two months (masa) commencing with magha, are the six seasons (ritu); sisira (cold and dewy), vasanta (spring), grisma (summer), varsa (monsoon) and hemanta (winter). The Vasant Ritu Menu on offer till 14th May 2022, encompasses the restaurant’s multi-faceted vegetarian repertoire with delights like Mewa Paneer or stuffed rolled paneer and premium dry fruits slow cooked in a gravy of poppy seeds, cashew nut and khoya, Kadali Badaam Kofta or green bananas and almonds marbles simmered in onion and curd gravy finished with timur, Shatawari Maarmik or crisp green asparagus tips seasoned with nuts and raisin pleasant to the heart, Shahi phal Sandesh or layered sandesh and season fresh fruits napped with rabri flavoured with cardamom and pampore saffron. The food was satisfying, not over exaggerated but settle, flavors were prominent be it the spices, dairy part or the vegetables. The Vasant Ritu Menu is available as a set menu at INR 2250 plus taxes, ala carte portions are available on request.
Great ambience and service. There is a focus on delivering an authentic and traditional Indian experience. The appetizers can be better, but the main course thali more than makes up for it. Chef Lakhan and service person Bapi helped us through the meal
Chef Lakhan’s food is amazing, superly delicious food! Extremely impeccable service with a lot of thali options. We chose the seasonal thali!
