dfusion_dubai n_dubai with a twist creates magic with their exceptional indian food, quirky drinks & an entertaining live band. D’fusion takes great pride in creating a literal melting pot of distinct indian cuisines using different elements. While other restaurants are experimenting with Indian and foreign fusions, D’fusion is marrying flavors closer to home, with dishes like quinoa aloo chana chaat and vol-au-vent ( A puff pastry with pav bhaji filling )
Very high priced and place was empty
First of all, the restaurant is just beautiful. Lovely ambiance with live music and cozy seating arrangements.
The menu is elaborate and has a very good variety. Everything I tried out here tastes great. They come beautifully presented.
The portion to price ratio is great. Alcohol is available for the ones interested. The staff is very attentive as well.
Fantastic food !! Fantatsic staff !! Vinod & Susheel were amazing on the floor!! Kudos to the chef for being so accommodating!! Overall an amazing experience!! Will definitely visit quite often !!

Few days ago I was invited to @dfusion_dubai located in @grandeurhoteldubai Barsha.
D'fusion is an Indian Restaurant with a twist.

A nice cosy place with delicious food.
The restaurant even has live Indian music band playing your favorite numbers and special requests every evening.

We were served with traditional indian Papad with delicious haari chutney.
For starters we had juicy 𝙇𝙖𝙢𝙗 𝘾𝙝𝙤𝙥𝙨 and in main course we had 𝙍𝙤𝙜𝙖𝙣 𝙂𝙤𝙨𝙝𝙩 and 𝙋𝙧𝙖𝙬𝙣 𝘽𝙞𝙧𝙮𝙖𝙣𝙞. Every thing was made super fresh.
They have cocktails and mocktails with a great bar.
We had some lip-smacking mocktails.

I happen to recently visit the Dfusion Dubai in Grandeur Hotel at Al Barsha. Had heard amazing things about this Indian place with a twist. The ambience of the place is very amazing with some pretty interiors and lights. The have the made the place really well and the colours used in the place are fresh and soothing to the eyes. The place is very cute with a side of live band playing in a corner. With some amazing melody to the ears we started of with some drinks for the night. We tried the South Bombay Chuski which is actually like a Kala Khatta Gola was the twistest drink I’ve seen also ordered the Thandi Kacchi Keri which was yet another spiced sour drink for the night both were amazing. Some really good food suggestions were give by Mr. Gajanan and Mr. Nisarg for the night. We started with Dum Murg Shorba which was tasty and full of goodness. For the Appetisers we had Kurkuri Bhindi which tasted very crispy snacks lady finger chips which was really yummy real good for a good snack, next was Lamb Chops and Chicken Murgh Angara which was perfectly made meaty and juicy very good in taste with really good quantity. For main course we tried the Butter Chicken was very authentic tasty and creamy. The dessert was the best highlight of the night we went for Gulab Jamun Tiramisu, Gulab Jamun was embedded in the goodness of Tiramisu cake was a great combination together. Overall loved the place and the food and the service. Would definitely visit this place again.

Fine serving of Indian Cuisine in Al Barsha,
The newly opened Indian restaurant in Grandeur Hotel Al Barsha, is one fine looking place. They have a live band that plays daily, providing entertainment to the hungry souls that feeding on their wide selection of Desi Culinary treat. They stay true to the namesake, Fusion, here everything from the Drinks and Food is filled with interesting fusion touches. They have an interesting selection of drinks where they have tried their mixes. Tarbooz with booze which was a Vodka/ watermelon mix, D'fusion punch which was a Tequila and beer concoction were great drinks too.

Loved the food at this restaurant.. we tried following-
1. Mutton curry with naan- loved the taste of mutton.. very well cooked and lovely taste.
2. Tandoori chicken- amazing taste.
Nice ambience, awesome food, courteous staff...
The best and x factor of the restaurant is the band... So melodious... Fantastic... What a collection of songs and what a performance to engage the foodies...
Rock on
Great place to go with friends and family in a group. Beautiful place with wonderful ambience. Atmosphere is cosy and comfortable. Service is excellent and staff is super-efficient and attentive. Food is really delicious and hygienic.
Perfect for a family dinner, calm and relaxed environment with live music. Traditional Indian cuisine with a good modern twist of look and flavor. Friendly and welcoming staff ❤️
Love this newly renovated restaurant!! My favourite was the tandoori chicken. Was so succulent and perfectly spiced!
The malai mushrooms was soft and delicious with a burst of flavour!
The jalebis were perfectly hot and crispy.
To add to the vibes, they also have an amazing live band!
Swag score 9.5/10
Staff was very cooperative and good. Amazing food. Had a gr8 Valentine's day celebration with friends. Service was good though little slow. Enjoyed the ambiance, food, music and service with friends. For the live music only suggestion must have a lady singer too.
The place has a nice ambience and also live music. Some interesting drinks like high-on-chai, thandi kachi keri, and more. Lovely fusion Indian food too. Loved the hara bhara kebab, vol-au-vent, mutton rogan josh.

An Indian fusion restaurant that makes most of the classic Indian delicacies with a twist and some kickass drinks! Also, there is a live band playing classic Hindi songs.Murg Angara Tikka (Must try. The chicken was soft and well-marinated)Bharwan Mushroom (Highly Recommend. The medium-sized mushrooms were stuffed with paneer and veggies and cooked in charcoal, which upped the flavour of this to the next level)Aloo Channa Chat (This salad was a little bland)Pav Bhaji Cups (Highly Recommend. The bhaji oozes out from the multi-layered pastry)Kurkuri Bhindi (Bhindi batter fried to a crisp, served with mint chutney)Paneer Tikka Masala (No fuss)Dal Makhni (Must try. This was my most favourite main course)Mutton Rogan Josh (Though the mutton was cooked to perfection, the gravy lacked flavour)Vegetable Pulao (No fuss)Thandi Kacchi Keri (Highly Recommend. This drink was so good, I had 3 drinks by the time I was done with my meal)Kulfi Falooda (A very different taken on tiny Kulfi sticks that was topped with Falooda flavours)Jalebi with Rabri (The Jalebi was a great end to the meal and was not too sweet)The plating and presentation is highly appreciated. The service was good and so was the quantity of the food served. Overall, a great experience.
Visited D’fusion with family and enjoyed the evening.
The food was very tasty and creative. Live band is an add-on. They played really good music.
Baljeet and Narendra served us in a professional manner.

I was recently dinning at Dfusion along with group of my friends, the ambience was good, lovely interiors and some good food! Service wasn't bad at all!
Let's get talking about the food shall we?
Started with some drinks - I tried two of the drinks from the menu, Thandi Kachi Keri - love the flavours, so refreshing and a total different drink from all! A must try!
Pina Colada - I really enjoyed the Pina Colada, the coconut milk wasn't too overpowering nor the pineapple juice, really great tasting drink!
Starters - Kurkure Bhindi very Crispy and flavourful! A must try!
Quinoa Aloo Chana Chaat with Avo - a little on the spicy side for my taste buds, but tasted different from your usual chaats.
Vol Au Vent - Loved loved the dish! Would be great if they were a tad bit bigger in size as you couldn't get the bhaji taste a lot. But surely a must try!
Harra bhara kebab - crispy kebab with great ingredients and flavours. Good quantity and sufficient to share with 4 pax!
Don't remember the dishes name - It was daal vada with hummus platter, aahmazingg combination of both the dishes was great, I'm surely going back for this dish! Loved it! A must have!
Mains - Paneer Tikka Masala - The paneer was a little hard, would prefer if the paneer was softer, thr gravy was good, it was a tomato base gravy.
Daal Makhani - very creamy and delicious daal, i really liked it, surely having it again at my next visit. A must have
Roti - the butter ones were good, without butter few roti's were hard.
Dessert - Jalebi with Rabdi - The rabdi tasted good but was a little watery, would prefer if the rabdi was thicker. Jalebi was crispy and properly coated with syrup.
Mini kulfi - very cute was to serve kulfi, really enjoyed it!
Over all - great service, amazing food, friendly server's. There was live music and they sang really beautifully, which was really pleasant. They also have valet parking.
My all time favorite alcohol is Whisky and Dfusion just created their own Indian cocktail based on whisky called 'High on Chai' which combines Whisky and tea (I love tea too 😋) and is definitely a great whisky based cocktail. They also have other unique Indian cocktails like the Vodka Kacchi Keri. Once you're a little high and enjoying the live band, unique Indian starters like Vol Au Vent with pav bhaji masala(5/5), kurkure bhindi(5/5), Galouti Kebeb(4/5) and Chicken tikka(4/5) are great starters. In mains we tried the butter chicken(5/5), prawns(4/5) and mutton rogan josh(4/5). And finally thr jalebi with rabri (5/5) was just amazing and the kulfi(4/5) was good too. Interiors were great too and service was a little slow but the overall experience was really good. Definitely coming back..
Ambiance 5
Service excellent
Price pocket friendly
Music relaxing
Food authentic best Indian food ever.
Recommend 100%
Staff was amazing specially Pranav who recommended the food selection for me and my friends 😊🙏
Excellent ambiance very Good music also very happy with the service staff also the manager was very friendly and polite. Just been there on Friday late night with family
Ambience is very good, small and cozy. The live music adds to it, the singers were very friendly and forthcoming in entertaining guests with song requests.
Food is good too though quite rich (read creamy) for my palate. The veg. kebab platter is worth a try with very good variety.
overall, pleased to have visited this restaurant.
cheers!
Been there for dinner great arranged by a friend of mine. Such a top notch hotel. Live music takes it a step ahead. The food was great!! Lamb chops were tender and succulent marinated with lip smacking spices. Hara bhara shami kebab was equally delicious.
Mutton hyderbadi biryani, d’fusion kebab platter included variety of fish,mutton,chicken & prawns kebab was a hit.
Stuffed naan,rumali roti & lahori chicken were match made in heaven.
Jalebi with rabri is my personal favorite & kids enjoyed gulab jamon with rabri.
Overall a great experience!
The staff is very polite and friendly. Restaurant Manager Mr. Rajendra went above and beyond to make us feel special. The interior and ambiance is very mesmerising. If you are a true Indian food lover and desi by heart, you should try this place. I will definitely go for the live music dinner very soon. You can avail the free valet parking service as well.
Had a nice buffet during ramadan ....good taste...frienddly staff...nice arrangements..dishes were few but was good in taste...that is how it shud be
We went on weekday for family dinner. They had live music with professional singers, food was very tasty specially Malai Kofta. We ended up with desert platter which includes 4 type of sweets(especially crispy and delicious Jalebi). That reminds me of my home. Thanks Shuchi

This place is hidden Gem within Al Barsha Dubai, I have personally visited many times and recommended to many of my friends. Everyone was happy with the quality and taste of food coupled with the live Bollywood music, be it your request of old / new melodies or foot tapping numbers you will be always amazed with the overall performance. The male Singer Mr. Zubair and Female Singer Ms, Sumi accompanied by two musicians will never fail to entertain you. We have booked the whole restaurant for a Wedding Anniversary celebration, the F & B Manager Mr. Rajendra Singh was happily accommodating all our requests within a reasonable budget. The service boys were happily serving the guests, I would like to mention few names here Sharif, Kamrang, Baljit were tirelessly serving the guests with an ever smiling face. The taste of food is mostly North Indian. The resturant serves hard drinks as well. Worth mentioning that the restaurant is within the Grandeur Hotel and Valet Parking is available, so no waste of time searching for the parking. If you love Indian music and wanted dine in for tasteful Indian food, would like to have some hard drinks or cocktail, this is the place.
We had been there for a birthday party. The starters were good and the main course was decent too.The food was good bu the cherry on the cake was the live music.
Purpose of visit- This place was host of our last lunch at Dubai before our veena group was heading to Abu Dhabi.
Location- This restaurant is located in a hotel.
Restaurant details- The staff is courteous and the place has a pretty good ambience.
Order details - The buffet was being served so had a pretty large spread.
1) Chicken masala - The taste was good but the chicken didn't have boneless pieces as a result I found it hard to have it. ( That's a personal opinion though)
2) Mutter paneer - This was a saviour for me since I find it hard to have chicken with bones.The taste was amazing.
3) Amritsari fish tikka - This was simply awesome.
4) Kheer - The taste was amazing.
Conclusion - The food overall was great, must appreciate the efforts the chef's put in to make meal tasty.
We went there for Valentines eve... had a great time enjoying the live band n delicious food.. the ambience was beautiful as well.. Chef Irshad did a great job taking of care of the guests... overall had a nice experience with family at this restaurant..!! 😊
Food is always amazing. Being vegetarians, we love the choice and the live music is very soothing. Can recommend for any occasion-party, romantic dinner....
Here kabab and chicken tikka is marvelous. Who's favorites of Indian non vegetarian can taste of dish. By the sweet of carrot halwa is good by end with
I went on weekend with my family for dinner.. They had live music with professional singers.. food was very tasty specially chat.. it ends with Kulfi which was top notch, reminds me of my home country
If you want to go on a Romantic Dinner with wife or girlfriend,this is the place to go.
One of the restaurants where Taste is real North Indian.Live Hindi Music
Chutney wala jhinga , Seekh kababs and Kabab platter are very good.
Surprisingly Mutton Nalli Nihari is not included in the menu but is available.
We did not try biryani but could smell the Aroma from the next table.
Looks like Chef is from Western UP
Smell does not lie ,So will try Biryani next time
I went for a social event & their food was served in the rooftop bar which has a stunning view of the Dubai skyline.
As it was a social event we were only served appetizers with house beverages. I tried their cheese balls, prawn cocktail,mutton seekh kabab , fish tikka & kebah . Everything was delicious & tasty. I really loved the seekh kababs as they were spicy!
For desserts we were served mini malai kulfis & freshly made jalebis. Out of the two I immensely enjoyed the jalebis they were fresh , sweet & crispy!
This has been one of the favorite places for our family get togethers. The staff are very friendly and its just a feel at home place. Food is really good and the best thing is the service is only getting better every time we visit. We have tried chutney wala jhinga, D’fusion kebab platter (non veg), Murgh Malai, kebab sampler (veg) for starters and in the mains dal tadka, gosht nawabi, methi murgh and some rotis . I love the Chutney wala jhinga and murgh malai and in the mains methi murgh is a favorite one. Everytime we visit we try couple of new dishes as per suggestion of the staff . Most of our visits we get to meet Mr Rajendra who has been absolutely remarkable in his service. I recommend this place for a chilled outings with family and kids while enjoying some good food , drinks and a lovely service.
Lovely place for families looking for great ambience. Food portion and taste was perfect but if one doesn’t have to wait a long time for a single mea that would be great! Overall 5 Star experience and will strongly recommend to family and friends!
Wonderful experience with Grandeur Always.
Warm hospitality, perfect service and good food.
Thx Rajinder for your all suggestions on starters and food.
Zomato gold also available.
Been for iftar buffet. Biryani tasted good , kebab’s were under cooked n no taste.
Loved the taste of bhajiya n chole chaat.
Gulab jamun was tooo sweeet.
Chocolate mousse was good.
On the basis of food taste it was okay okay.
The staff was tooo friendly n caring nature. Very good service by d staff.
I have been to D Fusion many times, this is one of the best India Restaurants in Al Barsha 1, The reason i keep going back to this restaurant is food taste, service and Live Music:)
Wonderful ambience, good food especially startes are excellent. The music was mesmerizing ...kudos to the singers ... never seen such quality Bollywood singing in Dubai.
If you fond of Live music (hindi) than this is a must visit place. The Singers sing really good. Good Music accompanied with alcohol and good food is a delight.
D'fusion ... juss as d name says u will get d feel on their menu too. Which has sm unusual fusiontastic names. The restaurant serves ala carte as well as d buffet (only for party bookings). U can see d live kitchen in one corner, where chefs r making out d best of d dishes. Amongst d dishes we had i personally liked d Aloo Corn Tikki amongst d starter & Lahori Chicken. Their Biryani was smelling heaven as u can feel d aromatic flavours wafting out wen it is served to u.
To mk d dinner memorable, they have d live band dat performs bollywood numbers, also ur requests r obliged. Was informed they do hv Karaoke night too. So if any of d budding singer wants to let ppl kno abt their talent, it can b done too.
We had been in a group of 30 people..the arrangements were perfect and service was prompt. Live chaat counter..delicious food..drinks and a rocking live band. Perfect to make any celebration special. Thumbs up to Rajkumar (f&b manager)!
A place with delicious food. The starters are yummy. The Band is absolutely rocking. Perfect place for a party or dinner with friends and family.
It was our friends birthday and we decided to go to d'fusion, after one of our friends insisted. All of us weren't drinking except one. Hence, we really couldn't try the "must-haves" in the alcohol department. We ordered a lot anyway,
I won't be able to mention them all but here are the highlights/recommended items,
d'fusion Non-Veg Kebab Platter
d'fusion Veg Platter
Afghani Murg
Bharwan Mushroom
The live singers and the manager himself took very good care of our big group! The food takes time but is definitely worth the wait. Cooked very nicely and tastes great too. We have no complaints with this restaurant. Do visit if you're into food-with-entertainement (live singing) kind of a thing!
Superb restaurant, we attended a birthday party and were quiet impressed withe flawless service of snacks and chaat counter was the center of attraction, all sort of chaat was very good. We are planning to celebrate my daughters birthday party there in coming February. Singer are awesome, they can sing as per the flow of party and make you dance.
We have been to this place many times....can't believe such a good place is so hidden.
The place is an absolute delight and pleasure to dine at. The ambiance, service, food, staff, cleanliness everything is up to the mark. I love the mocktails there along with delicious paani puri.
A great place to dine with a huge gathering or party. The price is quite reasonable for the quality offered.
It was a Thursday night we went there with our close friends. One of our friend has recommended us for this place. We enjoyed our evening here. They have nice tandoori kebabs and a friendly service , person serving us was very helpful. The menu is quiet elaborate and you have plenty of options to choose from and price is very reasonable.The singer was amazing and we will be going there more often. Thanks to my friend Nisha for recommending us this place.
We went there two weeks back and had a wonderful meal with a very prompt and quick service. Their paani puri's are the must try. They have free valet parking. It’s a good place to hangout. Their photos on Zomato don't match with the ambiance which we found.
Staff was quiet helpful and we could see the chefs cooking our food. We went on Karaoke night and enjoy the singing.
Attended a birthday party and hospitality extended was great. Staff was courteous and prompt in serving orders. Live band played amazing old songs. Food was great. Place has free valet parking.
loved the ambience, was there for my husband's 40th bday with a big group, really had fun as the live music was the HERO, so lively so entertaining and above all food was amazing . Thank u team Dfusion for making the day memorable.
I love the ambience and the food. Well.. who doesnt like vodka pani puris :) . PS - the place is not too big and does get full . With people and the ghazals - its a good place to drink but not the best if you want to sit and chat...
Good food and extremely friendly staff, but the music is too loud everytime, this prevents conversations which one would have on an outing with friends!

A foodie gets excited by a couple of things:
1) A brand new dish.
2) An old favorite done right.
This place is all about the former. They have fused alot of your favorites with a lot of your other favorites. Like vodka chai, mexican bhel etc. The hotel and restaurants are owned by a friend and must say he has done a commendable job out os this place. The karoke is fun too. Great work..!!

This is one of my favorite Indian restaurant in Dubai. Recently interior is changed. Comfortable seating, nice service and excellent live band. Price is reasonable. You can also get discount on presentation of good living card. You can also get valuet parking. Overall nice place for evening.
This review was long pending... Had been to dfusion a Cpl of months back when they had their kabab and biryani festival. The food was very tasty, kababs melt in the mouth and the biryani delicious...the vodka pani puri too was excellent.
The service was very prompt and efficient and the live music band was good-played out quite a few requests of ours..
All in all a very good family place... If u don't mind the music a bit loud though
Amazing place to be with family and friends :)
Loved
1) All food items ( Specially Hara Bhara kabab)
2) Voice of Guy singer , his voice sets your mood for evening :)
3) Hospitality of Staff
Can work on :
1) fast service
Should take review from all their Guest, as this is amazing restaurant but still not famous.

A small but lovely place. Credit to Zubair (singer) and his troupe... To keep the ambiance...maintaining the vibe. His voice brings alive songs of the old as well as new era..
Food is also good and the Vodka Pani Puri is a must try for newbies. The Dal Makhani is really good with just the right amount of creaminess as well as the Prawns Tandoori.
Desserts are a must especially the Multi and the Jalebis with Rabri.
Service needs to pick up.
Excellent Food and Service. We went to Dfusion for Diwali dinner with family. Everybody enjoyed the food. It is good to do a table booking before you go...

Not having ever heard of this place we were not sure what we got into when purchasing offers for Iftar online. We decided to do a small informal company dinner/iftar here. And after reading some of the reviews online, which were good I felt some what reassured about the place. Mr. Tony promised us some special dishes for the day. Mr. Kuldip also provided some wonderful service.
The place is not tough to find esp if your familiar with the Al Barsha area. The interiors are really well done with photos of yesteryear Bollywood actors and lovely lighting.
There were nuts and dates already set upon the table. A variety of fresh juice, tea and coffee, huge selection of salad, hummus and bread with butter. Lots of bhajiya's, a good variety of both vegetarian and non vegetarian food, raita, mint chutney and biryani. The dishes were quite innovative in fact, living upto the fusion theme. With fresh baked Naan and biryani rice to go with the curries. A good selection of sweets as well dal halwa, gulab jamun, cake and arabic sweets! Yummy!
The service was very good as well. When we requested for pappad and pickle which was not there initially, for a little kid in our group we were served them immediately. And the waiters are really attentive.
Loved the place. One would never know such a place even existed if it were not for online offers :( Please advertise more guys!

Had a great time this long weekend with friends at the Yas water world. The kids and adults starving as usual after a long day of swimming decided to head back to Dubai for dinner. D’fusion it was.. We enjoyed their live music, beautiful ambience and fusion drinks along with big pictures hung around the restaurant of legendary bollywood stars. My wife loved her vodka based all time favorite Dandi Gul. They have an entire menu of fusion Indian food and drink that we have tried earlier but this time being a mixed group we all opted for tried and tested Punjabi food.
We ordered veg platters for starters that had a mix of all their tandoori classics and out of the world stuffed mushrooms. One should not miss their Adraki Mutton chops for starters as it was one of the best chops you could find. Lovely Pani Puri and it can be substituted for vodka puris too. Dhai Bhatata puri was extremely sweet and non edible but that was the only dish that went wrong the entire evening.
Every single dish we ordered was made to perfection and I must mention their Dal Makhani and Dum Subz Masala Biryani. The Biryani was full of flavors and wonderful aroma, not to be missed.
As per my previous experience at this place, do not opt for their buffet as it is highly disappointing and you may never return.
On the whole good music, great ambiance and yummy food. Go along with your loved ones and enjoy your Khanapeena at D’fusion along with their fancy Indian fusion cocktails .

Alot of people must have never heard about Dfusion, sadly this restaurant has never been promoted anywhere, else it would have been much more popular.
Anyways so it was my parents wedding anniversary and they wanted to have something different but Indian. My boss suggested Dfusion as it is one of her favorite eateries. I wasn't really sure how it is and what to expect from it. Anyhow since I was short of time so I went ahead and reserved a table for 6.
The ambiance was nice with darker lighting and a stage for singers but I started doubting if the food is good because there was not a single person at the restaurant. It was a weekday but at least any hotel guests could have been there. Now since I was here, I had no option but to continue with the selection of restaurant for the evening.
We were handed three menus, one for drinks, one for the chaat corner and the main menu. I decided to go vegetarian as one of my guests was not comfy with non vegetarian food. I ordered Vodka pani puri, a veg kabab sampler. I always order sampler or platters..in this you get to try everything. Also we ordered a mexican bhel. My brother and I shared the vodka pani puri which was yum! Also bit of each kabab from the sampler plate. The standout from platter ordered was pudina paneer tikka it was melting in my mouth and had all the right flavors!
The starters did whet my appetite and I was looking forward to trying their main courses. In terms of fusion I was expecting a bit more however what they serve is just about fine. In main courses I ordered Paneer Makhni, daal e khaas and begare baingan. Accompaniments included some butter naans , paneer naans and wild rice pulov. Paneer Makhni was passable and so was begare baingan. Daal E khaas was good but I think I like karachi darbar's daal is better. The naans were soft and delicious especially the paneer naan which was stuffed with a whole lot of filling. The wild rice pulov was good but they mentioned in menu that it will have cottage cheese wherein I couldn't find it in the portion that I took.
Meanwhile, there came another family to celebrate a special occasion. The band started performing popular numbers from Indian movies. We were all handed cards on which we could request songs. So my grandfather was having fun handing out cards mentioning old hindi songs and the band kept singing/playing without any complaints. Well they were a bit loud but my family was enjoying so no complains on that..
Coming back to the food..now their desserts did look tempting but I was really feeling heavy so I decided to order pista kulfi and gulab jamun with rabdi flambed in rum. The platter of pista kulfi consisted of six small lollipop sized candy shaped stick ice creams which were really delicious and i could taste pistachios prominently. The gulab jamun with rabdi was a big let down as the server didnt really know how to flambe it well.
Anyhow it was a decent dinner for 6 and the music kept my folks entertained. Few dishes were a hit but too many misses as well.
Verdict- With a group of friends who love Indian/bollywood music? Take them to this place as entertainment is good. Food is not bad either but a bit pricey.
Indian with a twist..real twist...enjoy vodka panipuri while singing your favourite hindi song...
