April was our server and made sure we had a great time. The food was outstanding! Everything was sooo delicious! The starters from Chilli Cheese Toast to Chole Bhature to the super delicious Dal Tadka and Jeera Rice and to top it all of the yummy Hot Chocolate Fudge. My mouth is still watering thinking of the food. It was the best dining experience of our lives

What a lively atmosphere! We thoroughly enjoyed the dinner dining experience. Everyone was very friendly & happy welcome us for dinner. Our server was very helpful in recommending what dishes to try. We would have opted for the more involved tasting menu but we were too het lagged to enjoy a 3 hour meal. Each dish was well portioned to allow sufficient depth in flavor yet not over filling. Highly recommend for a nice upscale casual dinner.

One of the best places in Dubai to visit both with kids and without them. There is a new playground area outside with comfy seating right next to it, which is very convenient for parents. Loved it.
