Review Winds N Waves - Bhopal

Wind and Waves Restaurant in Bhopal offers a prime location with a scenic view along the upper lake. While the outdoor seating arrangement is a standout feature, providing a sprawling open roof area overlooking the Upper Lake, certain aspects of the dining experience leave room for improvement. The food, unfortunately, falls short of making a lasting impression. The menu is characterized by average rates. overall culinary experience may not align with expectations. In terms of service, the staff is generally helpful, but the overall service quality is rated as mediocre. One notable positive is the availability of inside seating, offering an alternative for those who may prefer it. A point of feedback relates to the live music, which, while adding to the ambiance, is noted as being too loud for comfort. A slight adjustment in volume could potentially enhance the overall dining experience. In essence, Wind and Waves Restaurant, with its picturesque location and outdoor seating charm, has notable strengths. However, refining aspects of the food quality, service, and live music volume could elevate the overall dining experience for patrons.

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Wind and Waves at Lake View Bhopal, and I must say it was an incredible experience. The breathtaking view of the lake was nothing short of mesmerizing, providing the perfect backdrop for a relaxing and enjoyable time. The ambiance was incredibly inviting, offering a serene and tranquil atmosphere that made it an ideal spot to unwind and chill out. The staff was attentive and courteous, ensuring that every aspect of our visit was well taken care of. Whether it was the delectable food or the refreshing beverages, Wind and Waves managed to satisfy both my taste buds and my need for a memorable outing. The combination of the stunning lake view and the soothing ambiance truly set Wind and Waves apart. If you're looking for a place to enjoy a fantastic view while unwinding in a serene environment, this is definitely the spot to be. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a blend of natural beauty and relaxation!

The good thing about this place is its location, the ambience and the amazing lake view. There is live music which makes it a better experience. The price of food is on the higher side. The quality of food is okay. You can try paneer and kebab. Service is not good or fast. Cold coffee is not good. The seating arrangement is good. Usually crowded better to go in the evening. Parking is tricky most of the time it is difficult to get a place to park.

Don't know much about the rooms, since we had gone here to get closer to nature, to eat / drink with best buddies. I feel, in Bhopal, it has the best place to be near nature, overlooking the lake - there cannot be a better place to have a good time with friends.

Restaurant is in a beautiful location overlooking the Bhopal lake.Service and food was excellent. There are many seating options indoors ,outdoors as well on the roof top and enjoy our evening. The staff took good care of us.We wish them all the best

I had the pleasure of dining at Wind and Waves restaurant recently, and it was a truly delightful experience. Situated by the beach, the restaurant offered stunning panoramic views of the ocean, creating a serene and picturesque ambiance. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and attentive. They provided excellent service throughout the evening, ensuring that every need was met promptly and with a smile. The menu featured a variety of seafood dishes, showcasing the freshest catches of the day. From succulent grilled fish to flavorful shrimp dishes, each plate was a true culinary delight. The flavors were well-balanced and the presentation was visually appealing. The restaurant also had a well-curated wine list, offering a selection of fine wines to pair with the meals. The knowledgeable staff was happy to provide recommendations, enhancing the dining experience even further. What truly stood out was the restaurant's commitment to sustainability. They sourced their ingredients locally and made efforts to reduce waste, which added an extra layer of appreciation for the dining experience. Overall, Wind and Waves restaurant offered a perfect blend of breathtaking views, delectable seafood, attentive service, and a commitment to sustainability. It is a must-visit destination for anyone seeking a memorable dining experience by the sea.

We went to Bhopal for our anniversary celebration and this place was really a good place to have anniversary dinner. Location is wonderful, service was also very good. Moreover this is run by govt, so prices were also controlled. A must visit place if you love good food and location.

The restaurant is in a beautiful location overlooking the Bhopal lake.The service and food was excellent. There are many seating options indoors ,outdoors as well on the roof top.The weather was perfect so we decided to sit outside and enjoy our evening. The staff took good care of us.We wish them all the best and they should continue to keep up the good service.

Nice place for get-together and dining. Scenic lake view is awesome and add extra punch of natural ambience to your joy. sometimes food quality is compromised. Management need to pay attention.

The location is great because if you choose outdoor seating u get the view of the whole lake and its really pretty and soothing. The prices for food n drinks are reasonable. Taste was good as well. Although service can be improved.

We went here for dinner, the location is amazing and pocket friendly as well. It's a good place for both drinks and dine in . We had only food and the veg food was even more delicious than the non veg food . A must go place if you want a good experience with your loved ones . Thanks

Most recommended place to visit if you want to truly adhore the beauty of Upper Lake.. As always food quality and service has significantly improved now like it did in other MPT restaurants across MP state..

they r making u fool by adding extra charges for it.<br/>giving you fake bill and take extra charges......

The Lake side restaurant owned by the Government is a must visit restro when coming near the Lake. The parking space was a problem but the live music and Beautiful Lake side view compensated for it. The Service was way too slow.

I went on official dinner at Wind and waves , This place has beautiful city and lake view . This place has cozy , romantic wibe. Outside seating is amazing. <br/><br/>This place has ample seating , but it stays crowded during weekends. Would recommend to visit evening on weekdays. <br/><br/>Food was good , nothing extraordinary. We had cream of mushroom soup, spring rolls, panner kabab, Paneer kadhai, rice and daal . Service is ok . Staff is polite . Price is reasonable. <br/><br/>One should visit this place for amazing view. Many bollywood movie scenes has shot here it seems.

Really a worst experience - completely time and money wastage - will never go again !!

If you happen to be in Bhopal or have staying in Bhopal and having ample time, do not miss visiting this place for it's location. If you are sitting on it's upper deck, you get a magnificent view with 180 degrees view of the lake. A place where you can sit back and relax with some drinks and food. What we had was Beer and French Fries during our visit there last month. During the same trip, we ordered some cold coffee and didn't had any other food, but we loved the ambience and the courteous service. A place highly recommended to be visited either with your friends and family

From menu : Fish and chips ( rs 380)<br/>Hakka veg noodles ( rs200)<br/>Fresh lime soda (rs 30)<br/>I liked the fish and chips , it was perfectly fried , crispy and veggies were perfectly sauted , crispy fries.. I didnt feel veggies were bland unlike other place.. Its a must try here..<br/>Veg hakka felt more like street food rather than restaurant style .<br/>Fresh lime soda was perfect.<br/>Recommend : fish and chips and fresh lime soda .<br/>They also serve alcohol.<br/>Ambience :5/5<br/>U cant miss lake side view

We went there amidst the rains and clouds, and this place was like heaven. We chose the outside seating considering the weather and it was simply superb. The staff is courteous and service is also good. We took Chilled beers, fish fingers and chilli chicken. The food was also good. The starters were crispy and cooked well. Peanuts were served complimentary. The place is nice and is recommended.

Its quiet spacious place, they have outdoor seating as well as inside.The view from roof is amazing to have some chitchat along with beer to enjoy the ambience.They provide complimentary peanuts, if you order alcohol , which I loved the most :DBeer choice were limited, food was good in taste.Overall, you can enjoy this place, but just a suggestion, there should be light music playing in background, which will definitely double your mood.

This place is a sight for the eyes and its a bliss drinking and eating while watching the sunset amidst the spectacular Lakeview. Perfect for date, meeting, dining in or for a casual outing. They have a licensed bar so you can even have beer, vodka, wine or whatever you prefer. I had Chinese Food which was good in taste, but the place is losing its charm for some reasons lately and I feel it is taken less care of.<br/>Also, The French fries I had weren't freshly prepared and it seemed like the kept over fries were deep fried again and served. Improvement in the menu could be made since it look outdated now although the prices are competitive.

The scenic view from this place is breathtaking. There is a beautiful view of lake. Food is also great. I orderd veg kothe and veg spring roll. They were finger licking good. The best part is the ambience. If you want a peaceful dinner, this place is the best option.

Beautiful view of the lake from a height on the hill. Quite a laid back atmosphere where waiters don't bother you too much. Food was fresh and well made. Quite surprising that this has such a low rating. Was hesitant to go here due to this, but good that I finally decided to visit. Ideal place to have dinner after a lovely boat ride on the adjoining lake.

Totally awesome place,live music, you get beautiful View of the lake ,nice vibes you get ,worth visiting,4/5 . Spacious ,roof top bar,nice staff.

Place with a view of a beautiful Lake. This place is located on the top of the hill and one can have a better view from there.<br/><br/>I got this opportunity to visit this place along with my International friends. The place was decent and the ambience was nice. Quality of the food was not up to the mark though prices are competitive.<br/><br/>Another thing that attracted me was Live Music. One can have a wonderful time with Live music and sometimes Gazal.<br/><br/>Overall, this is a good place to visit once with your friends to have a beautiful view of Lake, especially at evening time.<br/><br/>Ambience = 3*<br/>Food = 2*<br/>Service = 2*<br/><br/>Please note that you need to change your menu ( Food & Alcohol ) as I found it outdated.

A place with a view. Service is a bit slow but rates are competitive. Snacks are quite decent. Waiters will keep bothering you if you will not continuously order something. Overall a nice place to drink and relax with the view of BADA Zheel.

Not quality service. You can enjoy the view but not the service. Food is okay okay. You wont feel the money worth , sunset is the perfect time to go if wish to go here.<br/><br/>

Love this place for the view it has, food os lovely too but the view is so scenic and beautiful (just writing for the sake of word limit)( just writing for the sake of word limit)

Winds nd waves (the restraunt not the drinks section above)<br/>Goods- location rather d view is probably d best in bhopal (u have d upper lake just in front of u) ambience inside is okk ( coz mostly u wud wanna sit outside nd dey kno dat) nd yeah d service is pretty good. Food is okk (read below).<br/><br/>Not so good- in nights, its not convenient to sit outside (no proper arrangement; no lights, bugs etc) food is good but heavy scope for improvement ( still said good coz ppl visit such places for ambience nd location)

Awesome food. Awesome view. Go here if you want to enjoy your food in leisure with a nice view. If you are in a hurry, i wouldn't suggest this place.

This place enjoys one of the best locations in the city, overlooking the beautiful Badi Jheel. The place has good ambience, but has lots of room for improvement. <br/>The food is tad bit disappointing, with limited choices available. In fact, the location gives an edge to the restaurant to develop into a fine dining place. I hope I can see improvement next time!

This is probably the most overrated place in Bhopal. The service is exceedingly slow, quality of food is mediocre, it seemed like a glorified theka to me with uncomfortable seats. They had limited beer options and the view of lake is so better from nearby restaurants and rooftops.

We came here after listening lot s about that..<br/>But honestly disappointing....<br/>Tables are vacant but we have to request for table as the server was not bothered..<br/>After making request we got the table in open roof.<br/>Again it takes a big time to let server came and took the order..<br/>Anythings good happned the taste of food was good..<br/>Love Mutter Mushroom curry,Paneer tikka, Dal tadka..<br/>Poor service offered but love the view and ambience...<br/>Definitely not come again...<br/>

The only good thing about this place is its location and no other restaurant in bhopal can beat that. Bt that is it. Everything else was a complete let down. Food took years to reach to our table and it tasted not as good as it should have been considering the premium price. On talking to their 'not so friendly' staff i came to know that this restaurant is managed by mp tourism and then felt even worse about the quality. This place has the most potential to become the best in the city with all the resources too in hand but still it is this bad.

The only good thing about the place is the lake view... The food is bad the quality of food is really bad... I won't reccomend this place to anyone not even my enemies...it's that bad

Great ambience, beautiful view of upper lake and provides both indoor and outdoor seating. Been there 2-3 times and service was always great. But the food is average and could be improved. Overall a nice and peaceful place.

It has been a mixed kind of an experience. The location, view , ambience is just perfect with the upper lake in front . The food and drinks were nice but the service was too slow.

The roof top sitting offers you perfect lake view. Food is quite okay and even the service is satisfactory. It would be better to avoid this place on weekends as the people keeps flooding in. All in all, it is a nice restaurant to visit.

Excellent place..I mean outstanding..it's got everything u need...awesome place for couples for a nice date ....a bit on the cosy side ....but affordable..must a once a visit place...

This place was one of my best place to hang out with friends, visited today after years, lost the earlier charm, degraded the food quality.<br/>The staff have now worst customer interactions.

hugely disappointed. pathetic service. have to wait a lot to get my order. only ambience is good and nothing else.one star only for ambience.

I have always felt that the restaurants by mptdc are above average but was always hesitant to come to this place after seeing the adverse reviews on food.<br/>today I was there with a group of friends for a longer session over snacks n tea. My observation-<br/>1. The place is appreciated for it's view, we were not so fortunate as the green trees all around except the restaurant's own garden were dry due to summer, so not restaurant's fault. it was compensated by the b'ful sun-set view when we were leaving.<br/>2. The staff was cooperative n helpful but not very agile.<br/>3. Washrooms need some better maintenance with proper tissue/hand wipes supply.<br/>4. we ordered paneer pakodas, veg spring rolls, veg hakka chow, veg Manchurian and tea. Each item was perfectly made and excellent in taste.<br/>Nice experience, rating 4/5.<br/>

HIGHLIGHTS<br/>Dining<br/>Rooftop view<br/>Atmosphere<br/>Vibes<br/><br/>We tried-<br/>Corn fry:3.5/5( Crisp)<br/>Paneer tikka:4/5( Exotic teast)<br/>Shahi chicken tikka:3/5(Mild teast)<br/>Malai kofta:4.5/5<br/>Chana masala:2/5( Oily and teastless)<br/>Butter naan:3/5<br/>Garlic naam:4/5<br/>Butter paratha:3.5/5<br/>Fresh Lime soda:4/5<br/><br/>RECOMMEND!!😄😄😄<br/>

Fantastic view. Food was okayish. And staff was friendly too. Prices were not that expensive if you see the location of the restaurant. Best place to have a beer with breathtaking view of beautiful bhopal.

Location is beautiful and this place is my favorite for hangout with friends. Lake view with seating both inside and outside. Food quality is average and Service is ok.

The view form this place is the only thing that keep it open till date, now I know providing a livelihood to people is a good thing but the live singing ruins the mood to eat..<br/>The food is not upto the location setting..<br/>Love the play of levels though..

Nice ambience and live music create s magic with seene view of upper lake. You can get both outdoor and indoor tables.<br/>Food is and service is ok., but the price looks a bit higher for the food served.

Winds and Waves <br/><br/>I went here with some of my friends. We came here for a dinner party. The place looks pretty good. Lake view with seating both inside and outside. The service was appreciable too. <br/>We had Mutter Mushroom, Dal Makhani, Kadhai Paneer and Naan.<br/>Mutter mushroom was good but could have been better. The masala needs a little improvement.<br/>Dal Makhani was nice and tasty. It had the right flavours. <br/>Kadhai Paneer was okay. It was not as spicy as it should be. Quite bland to be true. <br/>Naans were nice and soft. <br/><br/>Despite little flaws this place is worth visiting to.

Ambience - 7.5 (because of good location, best time is dinner)<br/>Food - 6.0<br/>Service - 5.0<br/>Value for money - 5.0<br/>Nothing exciting about this place other than the location.<br/>Recommended - everything is equally good (or bad), order vegetarian food.

This palace should be a modified into a coffee or hangout destination because location is the only saviour. The food not even low in variety but also poor in taste, though the ripples and soothing waves will calm your anger. Must to mention the lake view is amazing and one can enjoy drinks over here with all the requirements for a hangover😂😉

One of the best foodie restaurant in bhopal..the view from restaurant is awesome..the food is awesome..specially veg kothe,fish tikka,tandoori chicken .. Everytime i visit bhopal this place is in the top of my list..must visit after 7 PM you will love it..

I see a lot of people commenting on the deteriorating quality of food, but let me be honest. There are quite a few items which taste good when compared to other places. The USPs of this place are the location, ambiance and service. I visit this place nearly 2-4 times a year since 2010, and I have enjoyed my each visit to the place. I agree there are times when the service is really slow but the place gets crowded quickly too! <br/>For me, this is one of the must visit places in Bhopal after Top n Town ice-creams!

This place was once my favourite however it has lost its charm over the period.<br/><br/>Location is Beautiful and u can sit and Njoi the view of Lake . Live music plays over here which adds to the ambience. <br/><br/>Indoor seating is also available however I prefer the outdoor seating.<br/><br/>Chairs aren’t comfortable and do not have cushions which can be painful if u intend to sit for a long time .<br/><br/>Food and service has degraded a lot and it’s pathetic now . Be it starter, mock tails or main course , none of them is worth ur money . Service is slow .<br/><br/>Another challenge is the Hygiene. Couple of times I have found dirty plates here and u can spot Roaches and rodents roaming around the tables .<br/><br/>All marks I have given is for location only .

Worst food ever!<br/>I haven't had such bad food in ages. The only saving grace is the lake side view. The service was fine. Mosquitoes during the evening will ruin the view and I see no point going anyother time. It's better to sit inside. It's quite costly aswell. I highly recommend not dinning there.

The restaurant is very popular because of the lovely view of lake , where u will definitely get to feel winds and view of waves. . . <br/>Visited many time before .. last visited on 1/01/2018 the restaurant was crowded as it was new year .. the food is decent with decent price .. <br/>About the taste : not mouthwatering but can satisfy your taste bud.<br/>Service : excellent 5/5 if you know how to treat the waiters. <br/>Overall must visit place for if u are #bhopali...or living in Bhopal.

My fav place for hangout, when in bhopal. Breathtaking view of lake, hiltop restaurant and sumptuous food and drinks. What else one need from life. <br/>The time will pass like anything. Best place for retrospection.

I don't think any body comes here for food. This place commands a magnificent view of the lake. Evenings are amazing to sit and watch sunsets over a mug of beer and some live music. They have done a machaan type of place from where the live music can happen. Coming to food it was ordinary. We ordered the safest butter chicken that can't be screwed easily. The mava baati deserves a mention. I guess this was the Bhopal speciality item in the menu.

Went to this place on recommendation of MP tourism department. We ordered malai kofta and garlic nan along with veg cutlets. However, place is packed because of its lake view but it failed to deliver the food on taste and quality.<br/>The koftas were terrible to say the least. The place is a big no for dining. If possible, go here only for snacks and drinks.

The rating is only for the lake view, else the food is just ok. The worst thing is, they won't have stock of common alcohol. When we visited this place they have only kingfisher strong in beer and nothing else. Also, after serving one large peg of Black Dog they simply said 'Sir wo to khtam ho gyi koi aur dekhlo warna beer pilo'. Who says like this?<br/><br/>The ambiance was also ok ok types. They seriously need to improve the quality.

Except for a superb location the place can just be called real average. Food quality isn't very great. Chilly Paneer appeared stale.. black coffee is a safe bet which cannot be judged.. cold coffee looked average as well.. the place is just calm quiet n serene to b at.

Most rude and dumb waiters. Waiters ignore you like you are invisible. You have to request them for Menu card 100.No sense at all on how to handle customers.For drinks there is no menu card available. Variety in veg is very less.Food is just ok. Only location is nice.

Such a shame. Bad service and really bad attitude towards customers. <br/>Hoping thus place improves in this century. <br/>The only thing good is the view.<br/>

Can't understand the rating. Extremely delicious North Indian food in one of premier locales of Bhopal. Just in front of the main lake. Reasonably priced. Despite being a Govt hotel, the friendly servers were ready to serve us lunch anywhere, whether outside in the balcony, inside the bar or the air-conditioned restaurant downstairs. Liked the place.

This place !! ❣️<br/>Been here quite a few times, the place has never been disappointing. <br/>AMBIENCE <br/>The location of the place says it all. The view of the lake is just what you need while enjoying your drink n food! <br/>A visit in the evening/night is a different experience altogether with shining Bhopal, its water reflection and background music.<br/>FOOD<br/>In the bar restaurant, they offer crisp n limited food items (no wasting time on selecting food item).<br/>There are tandoor n non tandoor items which is offered at different times of the day to enjoy with your drink. Chilli paneer, Manchurian, chicken tikka, banjara chicken and hara bhara kabab are worth trying with different cocktails and mocktails .<br/>SERVICE<br/>One can expect a great service. This is not to be worried about. Food is served in no time except for the tandoor items which is quite obvious. Having both indoor and outdoor seating, it can accommodate a number of guests. <br/><br/>I feel it's perfect for dinner dates and any kind of party ! Do visit once and then keep visiting!!

Place is beautiful. But staff need to be trained. Place lacks hospitality. They serve complementry peanuts with drinks which are not eatable as they are too much oily.<br/>Fish fingers were yummy. Overall awesome place for evenings. But lacks hospitality.

Food:- 1.5/5<br/>Value for money:- 1/5<br/>Service:- 1/5 (Pitiable) <br/>Location and view:- 4.5/5<br/><br/>Overall:- 2/5<br/><br/>So ultimatly only location is the thing which you will appreciate here.

All stars are just for the lake view. Pure picturesque place. Amazing feels.<br/>Food is overrated.<br/>Had fried rice.<br/>Daal. And naan.<br/>They were too average.

veiw is the best and food is so delicious and the service is Superb than other restaurant and fully lake facing Rooms that Provide Amazing Lake View From Inside of rooms.

good service wind and waves waiter also good and food quality excellent and this hotel location front of lake is nice special variety food non veg i like   butter chicken rogan josh nice and delicious food

Writing it as short as possible <br/>Food. 9/10 (even heaven is .5 points away according to my view)<br/><br/>Ambience 10/10<br/>Value for money 8/10 ( 😢 it's govt what do you expect)<br/><br/>Taste 9/10<br/>Service. 10/10

Food 5/5<br/>Ambience 5/5<br/>Service 5/5<br/>Value of money 4/5. (It is run by the M.P GOVT. so it's quite obvious to be a little expensive)<br/><br/><br/>An awesome place to go if you are in Bhopal everything is great about the place without any cons and complaints the food is fantastic with mouth watering taste and smells great ; quality and quantity of food is mind blowing it is the no 1 place probably in M.P that have such a great location the view here is just amazing and you feel like a god when you are here the management team is great (manager & waiter ) they tell you what to have; their special and they are too good and sweet and probably one of the greatest management team in Bhopal <br/>Kudos to wind and waves and their team and please keep up the good work<br/>

Its Amazing!!!  to have Spent Some Quality Time with Someone, Food Quality Superb, Specially Tandoor & Chinese Food. can plan for next visit soon

I am giving it a three star only for the view of the lake, food is below average with no value for money, pricing is high. Overall, It's a one time try place

The whole feel of this restaurant is very beautiful and pretty and absolutely serene ❤️<br/>The location is so beautiful and pretty that you can sit in this place for hours and won't get bored but wish I could say the same for the food which I didn't find appealing at all the food was okayish for me and nothing extraordinary .<br/>Ambience -3/5 <br/>Food and drinks -3/5<br/>Service -2.5/5<br/>Value for money -3/5<br/>Decor -3.5/5<br/>Location :-4/5

Extremely hyped up place. Service Neutral. Food good. Ambience good only because of its location.<br/>Not fit for a blowout coz bar prices are quite fancy.<br/>Will leave you thinking why prices are exaggerated.

Highly overrated place, only reason to be there is view of Bhopal Lake is picturesque. I have been there quite few time but found it isn't value for money.

Ambiance - 5/5<br/>Food - 2/5<br/>Booze - 2/5 ; No varieties available<br/>Service - 1/5; As poor as it can get<br/>This place needs a solid whipping and it can go to 5/5;<br/>Warning : No cards accepted , please carry cash<br/>

I am rating it *** just because of place. Overall it don't even deserve * also.  They have worst service. Even taste was also not so good. They just have location. So, yes if you want to chill yourself with location u may go there. Overall food and service is not upto the mark!!!!

wind and waves is a waste of location.. dy dnt have service.. nor taste nor quality.. dy r jst earning of wat left is of location dy have.. pls make gud utilisation of dis brailiant location..

Giving 2 stars just for the location the view is beautiful and thats to it to this place . Food is pathetic almost like roadside food and very expensive .... give it a mise unless u r dying of hunger :(

Superb ambiance. Live music is cherry on the cake especially when weather is nice. Great place to spend time with close friends and family.<br/><br/>However the food is a big let down.Also the prices are way high when compared to the taste, quality and quantity.<br/>3 stars only for the setup.

It wasn't even a worthwhile experience. This restaurant is mp tourism owned which explains why. Granted it's at a picturesque location but everything else from food, serving staff, ambience, even the furniture stinks. Big time! I was apalled to find plastic chairs inside the restaurant. The whole restaurant bore the look of a second grade banquet hall. Food, uh! Horrendous. Waiters have government job so they were least bothered about promptness or even using serving trays. And it's costly. Burns a hole in your heart to be honest, lol! If you still want to eat out here, i'd suggest go for dinner. During lunchtime you'll be more focused at waves of garbage in upper lake. 1.5 stars because atleast we got free parking :-P

A must visit place... Beautiful location, good services and ample quantity of food as per the rates.. Complimented with melodious live musical performances and lake view... Perfect for dates..

#Winds n Waves<br/>Probably the best location of bhopal with worst food.<br/>Service was pathetic. Not worthy of a review when it comes to food.<br/>#Disappointed✖️

The view! The view! The view! <br/><br/>Headed to this place as had a couple hours to kill before my flight. The outdoor seating area provides a mesmerising view of the lake. Had ordered masala peanuts which were decent and some sort of boiled chana chaat which was quite tough to push down my...

Rated 3.0 and that is only because of the location of this restaurant. It feels great here as soon as you arrive here but don't expect the same for the food. People who come here generally are those who just want to relax in the windy environment facing towards the lake and their drinks in hand.<br/>The food here is not as tempting and the menu is also not that special. Just the regular bites of the north indian cuisine is served here. It is a total injustice to this prime location in entire bhopal.<br/>Instead go visit a cafe coffee day outlet just adjacent to this place and enjoy your evening with a coffee and share some light moments.

Well o<br/>Would start with this !! A cup of coffee with some snack n beautiful/ peaceful Eve in Bhopal..

It's definitely ONLY the lake view which drags you here!...definitely awesomest location in the city!!<br/>But all is just when you get a place cause it's generally occupied !....otherwise there's no special factor in the ambience if you sit inside. <br/>I wish I could have written the same way about food also !....unfortunately service is actually bad! ....I had to get up and ask!!!!!.....to place the order many times!.....yaa the starters were good.....and the rest of the food was okay<br/>Definitely do visit for the location! <br/>If they improve upon food it can definitely be my first choice !!!

The only exotic-ness this place holds is the view it provides.<br/>The taste is not bad at all, but the food is unreasonably expensive.<br/>Everyone says the service is slow, but of course in a place like this you wouldn't want to just get everything fast and then leave. This is where you'd want to sit, relax and enjoy the view.<br/>Save for their prices, this could really be a good place.

I have been to this place many tyms.This is all tym fav n the biggest yes is its location. One of the best place to spend quality tym,but the live music played is such a pain to ur ears. Food is average.

This Restaurant is owned and run by MPTourism, the location is one of the best in the world. Many Bollywood movies have been shot here. The restaurant is Multi-level indoor and outdoor sitting overseeing the Upper lake Bhopal. The food is one of the best I have had anywhere in the world. Trust me, if you are a visitor to Bhopal - Don't Miss it!!!!

The view is breathtaking, day and night, and the outdoor seating is a major plus. A thumbs-up for that! The music arrangements can be better. Food is mediocre, as is the service. Good for an evening in lovely weather.

Except for the amazing location offering great vistas of the lake, nothing else is good at winds and waves. One can go here to spend time at wonderful location over a cup of chai, but the idea of ordering even potato wedges- is a waste of money.

This place deserves an extra point just for the exquisite view! The Upper Lake in all its glory, right there in front of you. The live music adds to the charm. Food is fine, not outstanding. But this place is definitely worth a visit to experience the City of Lakes!

Beautiful location, quite serene and peaceful. Good place to hangout on an evening beside the lake. Good coffee and snacks. The view is making up for the place more than the food, but its not to be missed when in bhopal.

A place with great view, infront of bhopal upper lake. That is the only plus point of this M. P Tourism driven restaurant. As all other government restaurant and cafe this one also serves you the food with great pain. They make you to starve for the food atleast for a heck of time. Food is good specifically NoN-veg. So go for great view when you have much time to invest. ✌

A decent place to spend a peaceful evening (not on weekends). I am writing this review after several visits (read above 30 in last few years)<br/><br/>They have both indoor and outdoor seating arrangements, with beautiful lake view outdoor seating.<br/><br/>A brief review:<br/>Ambience - 9/10 if you have favourable climate and wind. The live singer keep on changing, so couldn't comment on quality.<br/>Food - 7/10 (if you prefer regular Indian food with all essential oils :p)<br/>Service - again a 8/10 on weekdays and 5/10 on weekends<br/>Price - decently priced.<br/><br/>Not a great place for food, but we have no better option in Bhopal for a peaceful open air, lake facing Resto-Bar.

I been to this place awesome location and the ambience is amazing the view of lake is picturesque. The restaurant ambience also good.<br/><br/>Service: The hospitality is poor the waiters are not upto mark and lack proper training. The service was overall is thumbs down. Considering the price the hospitality is poor.<br/><br/>Food: The taste is not very exclusive I had fried rice and Manchurian which I found below expectation the rice was of an average quality and while eating i found the vegetables not cooked properly. Though the Manchurian was ok the Manchurian gravy could have been a lot better and lack some key ingredient especially garlic.<br/><br/>Overall I think people come here because of the view the restaurant serve to its customer need to improve the food may be the head chef team needs few more addition.<br/><br/>

This is an exotic place especially because of its location and serenity. I have been to thi place number of times and have fallen head over heels each time. The snacks re tasty and its overall a lovable place to spend time with your gang of friends.

Nothing good about it, only they have one natural view. The food was never good and personally I wont suggest the place to any one. But if you are a couple and looking a place to sit and have 200-300 in pocket you can sure try this cafe.

Yesterday went to this place for hangout bcoz of nice weather really location is superb what a evening with family and friends food is good enjoyed a lot

Location of the restaurant, what should I say the best location in city to have a perfect dine , service is good and its quite really fast , the taste is excellent we had chicken tikka which was very good , some famous liquor brands are here with a live musical performance and rate of are also also not high , I recommend all of you to give a try over there ,who has has not tasted f&b of there

Some people are born with good looks, but they spill beans as they open their mouth. This place is best described in this sentence.<br/>Perfect location, facing the lake. Serves good variety of veg, non veg and drinks. But then the dining experience is missing. After all Wind and Waves is run by the Govt, not any private individual. <br/>Service is slow as a turtle (I ordered for an extra naan during my dinner and it arrived after exact 20 mins). Waiters tend to forget your order. And DONT ORDER CHINESE, which surprisingly was sweet in taste.<br/>This place should not be your choice in case you are looking to 'eat'. But yes, the location, again, wins.

Winds & Waves!!<br/><br/>A good thing about this place is the location it is based upon.<br/>Winds, cool breeze straight from lake side, situated adjacent to the beautiful Upper Lake.<br/><br/>Nature itself is the ambiance of this place, you can enjoy the view all round your dine time.<br/><br/>Now, lets come to the Menu Part:<br/><br/>Coffee: Regular filter coffee they have, typically kind of boring "Sarkaari Coffee" as the place is getting its care by Govt of MP.<br/>Paneer Kulche: Taste is good, but presentation part is again poor with sarkaari touch.<br/>Chicken Tikka: Fiery chicken pieces, charred taste, tastes good but not cooked thoroughly.<br/><br/>On your Pocket: Bit Expensive, its a family kind of place and will be feasible for those who are basically "Non Bhopali" all they enjoy here will be view. Taste and presentation is a govt thing here, sometimes extremely fantastic, sometimes equally pathetic.

Beautiful view and a superb place to just chill. This is probably the best located place to have a drink or 2 and to have some tasty snacks. Not giving a complete 5 cause the food was a little sweet. Amazing place though!

The place is well known in Bhopal not for the food but for the amazing view of the upper lake! I had a visit to this place on the occasion of my friends birthday , the food is good but the service is poor.<br/>Whenever you visit this place , try to get a table in the open ! <br/>

If one want to have his meal infront of lake, then they must go their. Good place 😍😍 great food especially non-veg (chilli chicken was yumm) . 😍😍😍😍😍<br/>Perfect place for reunion 👍👍

For foodies, this is definitely not the place. We did this mistake by ordering Chinese from the Menu - loads of oil is what was consistent in each dish, with the Chilly Chicken being just ok. Rest, not even worth a mention. So, if you are looking for a great lake view and want to enjoy the evening with friends and family minus some hardcore eating, then visit this place. Hard drinks are available and the best eatable with it will be the Cheese and Pineapple Canapes. Probably, you can give the Indian fare a try, but that too, at your own risk!
