Amazing place with wholesome as well as tasty food - in the sweet spot between calorie conscious food and complete junk. The cuisines range from Italian, Mexican, Asian to familiar Indo-Globals. We ordered:
1. Margherita Pizza - Great taste and presentation. The base was thin and made with all purpose flour (not complaining since I didn't ask for whole wheat but they should keep the option if they haven't)
2. Rosemary grilled chicken with mashed potato - Presentation was remarkable. Taste wise nothing struck as outstanding but nothing to complain of either.
3. Risotto al funghi - This was outstanding. It wasn't overpowered by cheese, one could appreciate the mushroom based sauce. If I had to suggest any improvement they can enhance it by using a variety of mushroom instead of just button mushrooms.
4. Chicken Quesadillas - The salsa was remarkable. Salad in my opinion was a pointless side since the freshness element is served by the salsa. Instead Guacamole was missed.
5. Pink Dragonfruit nice cream - Delectable and silky fruit soft serve with probably hung curd and frozen banana as base. However, it was a misnomer because the flavour of blueberry came stronger since dragonfruit itself is quite mild tasting and even the garnishes were blueberry and not dragonfruit.
6. Virgin pina colada - Little on the sweeter side for my palette but tasted well.
7. Peach pineapple smoothie - This was controversial. It was too sweet and greenish yellow drink, hopefully the sweetness was only from ripe banana and not added sugar. It had no hint of peach and very light note of pineapple. It mostly tasted of banana while the menu made no mention of it. The waiter said that banana is base for every smoothie. (I didn't argue but why is that? A smoothie can be blended in something neutral like hung curd, almond, soy milk with the tropical fruits, why does it need overpowering banana). It is my personal belief that the waiter already had to state non-availability of another drink we wanted to order so this time he didn't refuse but I don't think there was any peach in it. If I am wrong then they need to re-think the recipe or change the name of the smoothie.
8. Cucumber pineapple lime and herb juice - This was refreshing and probably the only drink without any added sugar. So, unquestioning it was simple in presentation as well as taste. But the simplest things taste the greatest.

Ambience - Good for family, friends as well as dates or corporate brunch. You will get good music and instaworthy shots.

Service - It was extremely prompt and quick. The servers were kind, pro-active and courteous. They stated and defended their chef's recipe without being rude and willing to serve another if we wanted.
