Discovered this place on Zomato and landed for a Sunday brunch. Fearing the worst when we were told its in the basement, we walked in with half a mind to return. But am glad we didn't. Turned out to be a great experience- ambience, food and service wise. We had mandarin and basil capriosckas, the watermelon and feta cheese salad and mezze platter - all of it was yummy. The dips in mezze platter were done well and I loved the baba ganoush. But the best dish was the main course fish. Veg Pasta was ordinary and quite a misfit in the whole spread but we are happy to overlook that minor thing :). Looking forward to visit again
Came to this place on a Saturday evening just two weeks back with a friend. The place is hidden below the ground level on the busy St. Marks Road and can easily go unnoticed. Go down a few steps and there you see a beautiful place. There’s an open air sitting area outside and an AC area inside. We took the seats in the inner side. They’ve television set’s installed on the walls and they run the live sport matches on it. (Good place for the IPL lovers). The ambiance pretty good with the music being played at the proper pitch and lights were appropriately bright.
We ordered ourselves a pitcher of Draught beer to begin with. To accompany it, we ordered Pan seared Mushroom Cheese Tarts and Chicken Cheddar Croquettes. The tarts were excellent in taste and is a must try. The croquettes were too average, lacked some taste to it.
We then ordered a pitcher of Long Island Ice Tea. It was not much strong when they served it, but upon making a request they re-prepared it. Really Appreciate that. It was accompanied with a Smoked Chicken pizza. To end the dinner we ordered the delicious Mushroom tarts once again to savor upon.
It was a good time spend there and the cafe is worth the money. Surely a good place to hang out with buddies.
Cheers!!!
We went to this place on a Saturday night - based on its rating in Zomato. It is situated in the same location where Oh! Calcutta used to be there some years back before shifting to Church Street. St. Marks Road is itself famous for its restaurant Truffles where I used to go 4 years ago. The place has a open seating area outside - which is the smoking area, we chose to sit inside. The ambience is pretty good, with the walls filled with books and paintings. There is a bar counter right at the middle. It has a very calm, peaceful and vibrant experience as there was light music in the background. The menu was very interesting filled with choices. We had Cajun Spiced Crispy Potato Skin Portion and Jalapeño Cheese balls - the latter was good and the former ok. We also had Rosemary Cottage Cheese Steak Portion - which was awesome - the presentation and taste was bang on. We also had a Nutty Fruity glass and Long Island Ice Tea - Tall Icy Glass - both were good. The service could be improved more - we kept asking for water and it took some time. But the food was good and that is the reason the experience altogether was amazing. The prices are competitive and I liked them personally. The government of India should seriously bring GST quickly - I have been seeing millions of different taxes being added after the bill amount - Service Charge, VAT on Beverages, VAT on food, VAT on liquor, Service Tax, Swacch Bharat and Krishi Kalyan - I literally do not see any use of paying taxes where things cannot change. Makes me frustrated sometimes. But nevertheless, a great experience and worth coming back again - recommended for all.
Really good food. Good ambience. Good service. Good quality. Good quantity. Not too expensive. Went there with a huge group. Tired almost everything present in menu. Everything is really good.
Really lovely place, good service, delicious food. The pizza (four cheese) and the starters hot pan grilled mushroom) were nice. The fig and honey mustard on the table was insanely good. Did not like the Philadelphia cheese cake, it wasn't the right consistency according to me. The Sangria was good, too. Overall a great experience and I like that the waiters leave you alone after you place the order.
This is such a classy place!!
The ambiance will take your breath away. Love coming here on weekends and spending good time with great company...
Food is good.
Highly recommended...
After contemplating for the longest time, finally finally came here!!
The place, ambiance, vibe, staff, service, food and drinks really got me!
Highly impressed with this place.
Came here on a weekday evening !!
Verdict: a good place with tasty Food and not so great service.
I've read about this place on Zomato and found the name interesting. I wanted to come here for a while. Went on a Sunday afternoon. We ordered the Chicken cheddar croquettes for starters and loved the taste. If you wouldn't mind deep-fried starters, I would suggest you try this. For our mains, we ordered the Crumb fried chicken great filled with turkey ham and chicken stroganoff. The Crumb fried chicken was a delight to the tastebuds and was quite filling. This is a must try if you love just crunchy and tasty meat, and no other distractions on your plate. The chicken stroganoff tasted good too and was not so heavy. We ordered the creamy mint to drink and it was okay.
Overall, our experience would have been better if the staff were A little more prompt. This place needs a lot of improvement in service. If you wouldn't mind the deficiency in service and are looking for a place to catch up with friends over a casual lunch, this sure is one place to try. :)
Love the all the smoothies here, especially the green apple and corriander one. The food, desserts & service was on point.
Definitely a must visit.
Beautiful ambience. The entrance didn't seem like that though! We were surprised once we entered the place. Friendly staff. Good service. The food was really tasty.
Good food. Decent price. Nice ambience. They have a mushroom tart starter which is a must try
Lovely place to hangout with great pizzas. The ambience is cosy and attracts young crowds and family alike. Try the Moroccan lamb pizza. The mango pannacotta is to die for
Food was excellent and the Ambience was also very good

Had lunch on a Friday afternoon.
# Place and Ambience - Both the outdoor and indoor seating are really good.
# Food - Had the meal option available with them. Contains one soup, salad, main course and a dessert. Apart from the quantity of the main course, quality and taste were really good.
# Service - Quick, did not spend too much time waiting.
Been here a couple of times..
It's a great place to hang out, have a couple of beers, and enjoy the food!
One of the best pizzas I have had! Amazing appetisers, delicious desserts- I'm yet to try more of their menu!!!
Great music, great ambience and very friendly service. And it's very pocket friendly and definitely worth the price
Highly recommended!! Must go here at least once!
The place is hidden on St. Mark's road. Just look for the board and markings towards the staircase leading to the basement.
The place is perfect to sit and chat with your friends and they will not ask you to move out even if you are done with your food. The place is not crowded even on weekends.
They claim to be the best place for Mediterranean cuisine. The staff is very well behaved and friendly. We were there for celebrating our friend's birthday and they gave a very beautifully assorted cheese cake (complimentary).
Great ambience. Hard to find at first as it is at below ground level. Service is great. Food is good. Chicken skewers for starters , sea food risotto and chicken straganoff for mains were great. Pricing is competitive. Regular 3 course meal costs approximately 800 per head.
The restaurant is in the basement of Hotel Nahar Heritage. It serves Mediterranean cuisine. It is a all day cafe. The food is good, service prompt and the pricing is spot on. This is a good place if you are in the area and want to have drinks with something to eat and not be disturbed.
It was a good place for my Saturday brunch. Was hard to locate the cafe since it's at basement level. Food here is awesome and the ambience was great as well. They have separate non smoking seating.
A perfect place for romantic dining experience what an ambience please add me to your follower list. The very courteous staff to take care of you and your food and beverage. Food is simply good good good. Ordered a Lamb pizza thin crusted freshly baked well balanced with spice correct amount of cheese what else you need. In the dessert, Mango pannacotta was well made. In my life span, I made it enormous time but I tasted a really good quality here so really I am jealous of the chef now. Must try food destination at st marks road.
Bon Appetite @Chef BB
