The place exhibits a typical Parsi restaurant feel with an indoor and outdoor seating and food is presented in a unique mumbaiya manner and the dishes have quirky names.

The place is always buzzing with good crowd and resembles an Iranian café. The berry pulav, keema pao and marghi na farachi are some must have dishes here. Berry pulav is exceptionally good with a burst of flavors. The overall food quality and presentation is great, food is served in aluminum dishes with an old school feel.

            The Barbeque Nation

Barbeque nation is one of the most happening places in Gurgaon, can’t leave this one. Famed for their live griller concept, exceptional service and appetizing starters this place is surely worth a visit. The ambiance is simple and boring, not appealing to the eyeballs. The music that they play here is nice but the stewards joining for dance on one of the Bollywood numbers surely gains a plus point.

Not just non vegetarians but vegetarians can also have a good time at Barbeque Nation. The starters are amazing especially the non-veg starters. Shammi kababs, crispy corns, paneer tikka, cutlets, seekh kababs, mutton and prawn preparations are good in taste. Cajun potato and chicken preparations need a special mention. Although the main course fails to impress much with the common daal makhani, paneer curry, Patiala shahi ghost, pindi chole and biryani are just decent. The main course is nothing to write home about. The dessert section is really scrumptious, chocolaty brownie, creamy kheer and amazing ice cream are few of the many great desserts which are a great ending to the meal. Fish items are must have here, also the beverages are worth trying.

Overall this place has a nice and cheerful vibe to it, cooking your own meal with different sauces is a whole different experience and the service is exceptionally good. The staff is always happy to serve you, they can add some items to the main course menu and update their interiors as well. This is the right place to go with a group and eat bellyful.

Next two courses are International cuisine and global mains, which again are great. Pizza, ravioli pasta, dal makahni and rara ghosht are delectable. The breads are falky and served fresh with creamy raita. The dessert section has different varieties as well, you will love the gulab jamun and paan ice-cream.  All the drinks served with each course are nice and compliment the food really well.
