It's a small cafe with good ambience. Coming to food, we had a lot of things. Babycorn Chilli - ₹169 It was good. The babycorn was crisp from outside and tender from inside. The spices were on point too. Chicken 65 - ₹179 It was good. But it had too much spices so the taste was overpowering. Veggie Supreme Pizza - ₹179 It was good. The toppings were yum. Seekh kabab - ₹169 It was good. The flavours were amazing. Veg Fried Rice - ₹129 It was simple and good. The quantity was good too. Veg Hakka Noodles - ₹129 It was also simple and good. The quantity was also good. Oreo shake - ₹149 It was good . Mojitos - ₹119 The mojitos were not good. They need to work on this. Chicken Nuggets - ₹169 The Nuggets were good. They had a nice flavour. Chicken Momo - ₹119 It wasn't that good, the filling felt a bit dry. The chutney was good though ( tasted like Schezwan sauce ). This place has a nice ambience and overall the food tastes good too. You can give this place a try. And if you do visit this place, let us know whether you liked it or not.

Small and decent cafe. Have tried momos, chicken lollipop and Oreo Shake . All tastes good. Price was decent too . Only thing about the cafe is you won't feel fresh, atmosphere is bit stinking .
