Really amazing food, true to the moti Mahal name. Dal makhani was spectacular but surprisingly the prawns tikka masala which was not on the menu but specially done by chef was really amazing too. we also got the special paneer makhani which was also good.
The place is quite small, with just about 4–5 tables, so it feels more like a quick dine-in/takeaway spot. We didn’t try their famous butter chicken, which I hear is what they’re known for. Instead, we ordered the mutton biryani, which turned out to be quite average—not bad, but nothing special either. Maybe this is one of those places where you really need to stick to their signature dishes. Next time, I’ll definitely give the butter chicken a try. Overall, just an average experience this time around.
This place is absolutely gorgeous and best in class. The food is easily among the best and service and hospitality without charging service charge is top notch. Thanks
