Rooh is a must go restaurant in Mehrauli (Delhi). It's inside premium shopping campus of Ambata One and has a breathtaking view of The Qutub Minar. Night lighting of QM starts at 9 pm and it gets so beautiful. Go for Terrace sitting, it just adds so much value to the overall experience.
Food - Contemporary Indian Cuisine.
We ordered Potato Roastie (kind of Chat), Lamb Chop, Paneer Karaifi. While the lamb was finely cut, moderately spiced and marinated to perfection, the Paneer dish was unique because of its preparation, presentation and amazing taste. Not sure one can find this Paneer dish in most other places. A must try. Chat was good but nothing unique as there are many places for great Chat in Delhi.
Our main course was Dal Bati Churma, Chicken Leg Korma, Paneer Lyonnaise, Waterchestnut raita, Butter naans.
Again, the Chef's magic was at play with Chicken Korma. This is one of the best chicken gravy dishes I have tried which is rich, unique, 100% Indian and finely balanced sliced gravy. Naan goes well with it. Paneer dish was quite innovative prepration in itself and would definately prefer if I am a vegetarian but Chkn Korma shines. Dal bati was ok and raita was too runny to my taste.
The cocktails were ok but not as great or unique as the food.
Overall, service, order time, food and the view makes it a great place for food lovers who care about the location and view as well.
It's pricier but delivers a great experience.
The flavors of Assam and Himachal came alive at Rooh, where they've set up a special popup called Giri (which means mountains). They've teamed up with two skilled home chefs from Delhi who specialize in Assamese and Himachali cuisine. we got a sneak peek into this delightful experience with a lavish six-course meal. The Assamese selection featured mouthwatering dishes like fish piktika, khaar on luci, black sesame chicken, and fish curry with curry leaves gravy served on sticky rice. we also got to savor some Himachali delights. Our Himachali adventure began with handmade wheat pasta, followed by the veggie delight known as bhein ki tikki. The journey continued with paangi kebab and reached its pinnacle with a tangy Pahadi lamb dish served with millets. Our taste buds were treated to irresistible desserts from both chefs - the Black rice pudding and pethe ka halwa bid us farewell in the most delectable manner, wrapping up this incredible culinary voyage through the Himalayas.
Great food, especially the paneer tikka and chicken tikka. The terrace is nice. The bill however has VAT of 25 percent extra added over and above GST and service charge so the actual billing is almost double of what is mentioned on the menu card. Make sure you ask what is VAT doing in their bill in this era of GST!! The ambience is good and the service is also fine. The view of Qutab minar at night with lighting is enchanting. The frequent airplanes crossing the sky between the monument and the moon keep you mesmerised.
