Very good Ambience with Powai lake view. Very spacious restaurant. Huge spread of Indian chat, north Indian, Chinese, middle eastern cuisines. While Quality and quantity was both good, the food was almost bland with zero spiciness. Here’s a polished 4‑liner you can use for your review: 1. The food quality is good and enjoyable. 2. I suggest adding a couple of spicy dishes. 3. Label them clearly as “Hot & Spicy.” 4. This will help spice lovers while guiding others to avoid them. Almost all the cuisines and dishes were very bland.
BEAUTIFUL ESCAPE to clam down, to relax, to enjoy the elegant atmosphere and the food. From the location aspect one of the best places in Mumbai. You can even sit outside on a terrace and enjoy the view over Powai lake. We tried the Sunday Brunch which was really good. The focus of the buffet is Indiean Cuisine but yes you find some pasta dishes, sushi, momos, dim sums and fresh seasonal salads. For all dessert and sweet teeth this is the place for you. This place offers one of the biggest dessert varieties I experienced in Mumbai. Amazing. We were there at 12:30 and this is a great time as it's not crowded and all is fresh cooked. The stuff is friendly and they try to assist you with everything. They even guide you along the buffet and explain the dishes. Prices are on the high side. Buffet plus two bottles of water 2 person EUR 105,-- Out of all the experiences it's a great location and if you like Indian Food it's a great choice but I personally have visited places with more vegan, glutenfree options. I definitely will come back to enjoy a good cup of coffee in that wonderful calm atmosphere.
Wide choice of local Indian, Western and Oriental breakfast buffet spread to satisfy every hotel guest’s diet preferences. The staff also make regular runs in restaurant serving hot drinks, fresh fruit juices and vada pav during breakfast hours. 👍
