Do
not
go
here
if
you
are
a
group
of
young
women,
they
will
not
take
you
seriously.
A
rushed
experience
with
poor
service
and
average,
overpriced
food…
not
fine
dining.
Our
party
of
three
went
to
Chutney
Mary
yesterday
(Saturday
27
January)
for
dinner.
My
friend
booked
it
for
her
25th
birthday
and
we
had
high
expectations
for
what
we
thought
would
be
a
quality
experience
but
turned
out
to
be
very
average
food
with
poor
(verging
on
rude)
service.
I
was
ignored
when
I
sat
for
ages
without
a
menu.
When
my
friends
arrived,
the
waiter
asked
if
we
were
ready
to
order,
and
we
politely
asked
for
two
more
minutes.
He
then
got
the
manager
to
come
to
our
table
and
tell
us
we
had
to
order
immediately
because
they
wanted
the
table
back
at
9:15pm.
Whilst
I
totally
understand
tables
need
to
be
cleared
for
other
reservations,
the
manner
in
which
this
was
done
was
distasteful
and
set
a
negative
tone
for
the
rest
of
the
evening,
as
we
felt
rushed
and
as
if
their
eyes
were
constantly
on
us.
This
is
not
what
one
expects
from
a
fine
dining
restaurant
where
you
should
feel
welcomed
and
relaxed,
particularly
as
you
are
spending
so
much
money.
The
lamb
kebab
is
not
a
kebab.
It’s
just
two
overpriced
pieces
of
lamb
(ie
not
minced
meat).
Our
two
other
starters
-
the
paneer
and
chaat
-
were
tasty.
But
you
can
get
the
same
at
any
other
Indian
restaurant
at
a
far
more
reasonable
price.
The
dal
makhani
was
nice,
but
we
soon
realised
that
it
was
FULL
of
oil.
Whole
puddles
of
oil
on
our
plates.
You’re
better
off
going
to
Dishoom.
We
informed
the
restaurant
it
was
our
friend’s
birthday.
They
kindly
brought
some
chocolate
ice
cream
for
her,
but
the
surprise
was
very
much
tampered
by
the
fact
that
the
waiter
miserably
lit
the
dessert
at
the
table
in
front
of
her.
We
ordered
masala
tea
to
finish
the
evening.
After
10
minutes,
the
manager
told
us
there
is
none
left
because
another
party
of
30
had
consumed
it
all.
We
knew
this
was
a
bid
to
get
rid
of
us
so
they
could
have
the
table
back.
The
manager
did
not
offer
us
anything
else
complimentary,
knowing
it’s
a
birthday
celebration
and
we
were
visibly
disappointed.
A
month
ago
we
went
to
Gymkhana
and
we
were
given
a
free
starter
as
an
apology
for
something
not
being
on
the
menu
-
that
is
real
customer
service.
The
bill
was
put
on
our
table
and
we
were
pressured
to
leave.
As
three
young
Indian
women,
we
felt
consistently
sidelined
and
not
taken
seriously.
Very
unprofessional.
