  • 2/5 Sujoy S. 4 years ago on Google
    Ambience was good, but very limited food menu... If you're thinking of having dinner here after having a drink, this is not the right place... They kept on increasing the music volume as the evening progressed... Music was so loud that we were unable to hear what we were saying to each other... Tummy and heart not satisfied to the fullest... Ended up spending approx 7k for 3 ppl...

    Absolutely not recommended. Serves no purpose. They have made a long menu of liquor but serves only 2 or 3 orlf those. No main course is served. Overpriced insufficient menu.

  • 4/5 PAWAN S. 4 years ago on Google
    A relatively new place on the Patel nagar main road. Well located. Valley parking available and sufficient. Great decor and interiors. The management seems quite involved and tailored our menu as per the requirements which is considered a worthy mention. Good food, frendly staff, prompt svce. One star less only bcoz of no bar facility at present...shd happen soon i am told. A place worth trying ATB Team QBIC!!!

  • 1/5 Moray N. 4 years ago on Google
    Massively overpriced drinks. They sell bottles of kingfisher that state on the label "maximum retail price Rs85" for Rs550. The staff are not friendly and only show attention when it's time to pay the bill. I used to like this place but it's gone downhill badly in recent times.

  • 5/5 Ashish G. 4 years ago on Google
    As always a home away from home. Perfect place to go for a drink.

  • 5/5 Dheeraj S. 4 years ago on Google
    Amazing food. Probably the most underrated joint in delhi for some lip smacking 'dilli fusion food'. The drinks are also gorgeous and a small dainty casual yet 'Upper East Side' bar to unwind after a long long day at work. Its quiet through the weeknights and has some good soul music to sail you through your weekends. Definitely a one time visit till you start recommending it to your friends for the same reason i did to y'all. Cheers!

  • 5/5 Samarjit P. 5 years ago on Google
    I hadn't been to Ek Bar up until now, even though I wanted to. I guess it's cause I'm lazy to leave Gurgaon and cause there are limited but consistent options in Gurgaon for cocktails. That said, I did finally make it to the place. The subtle feel of a speakeasy caught my attention. It's not a speakeasy bar, but once you get there and take the flight of steps to the door, you get that vibe. And that's my favourite vibe! We ordered many drinks, and they were all interesting. But I was disappointed by their gin and tonic serve. Same old tall glass, gin at the bottom... Bleh.. sad... You're a good bar. Please use gin goblets. I was happy though that they agreed to my change request on the glass. Food was good too. The pate was nice, the khamiri pizzas are good (not so khamiri though). And the crowd is definitely South Dell-hi! If you can be ok with that... Then you must make a visit.

    Suffice it to say that if you’re looking for a place with an “EXCLUSIVE” collection of alcohol. This is the place to go. That was sarcasm by the way. So we wanted a couple of cocktails which were ON the (very fancy) menu, and they were out of all the particular vodka brands which were needed. Did not expect this at all, specially after hearing praises from friends who’ve been here. On the positive side, the ambience and decor are pretty good, and so was the food.

  • 3/5 Shashank S K. 4 years ago on Google
    This place is perfect for dates. Better to skip this place if you're catching up with your guy gang or if you want to take your group out for a treat. The food spread is extremely small and really needs improvement. The options are too limited. The cocktails are okayish and not extraordinary. The service is slow but the waiters are courteous. The Lotus Stem Fries was the only thing which we liked on the menu.

  • 5/5 Alin C. 5 years ago on Google
    Absolutely impressive! Great food, quality drinks and amazing staff! I really loved the way they have groomed their staff. Take a bow team! They didn’t do out of the box stuff or offered me any complimentary drink or any special request, they just did their job well with warmth and politeness all over. Good with recommendations, know their menu throughout, well spoken. I usually review a place in peace but I had to review it right away! Now coming to the food. It really hit my tastebuds. We ordered two starters and my god they were yumm! Baked Malai Mushroom with masala kulchas were a delight! They weren’t Masala Kulchas exactly but more like a crispy tandoori roti! The mushrooms were amazing! The other one to ring some bells was Green and white pea tikki. A lott could have gone wrong with this experimental tikki. But it was good enough. Also had pizza, average taste. The Drinks were amazing as well! The only disappointment was the ambiance/interiors. But it can be subjective. Over all, must visit. Drinks were really impressive.

  • 3/5 Sakshi S. 4 years ago on Google
    Ambiance of the place is magical but the food and drinks are not great. Staff is polite and courteous though not quite professional. They have a rooftop seating area as well . It ek bar is shifted from it's previous location to this new location which is opposite lajpat metro station . It's a walk of 7-10 mins from there. I did not like the quantity and quality of food . Drinks are definitely something new but were not great either. It's expensive for no good reason .

  • 5/5 Rob C. 4 years ago on Google
    Great spot! The atmosphere is chill and swanky. The service was very attentive. They have a happy hour special on their complex cocktails until 8pm - 375 rupees. They have creative and unique cocktails, including one they poured for me at my table with hookah smoke trapped in the upside down glass. Food options are also great. Small plates for sharing, and both items were fantastic. They have their own water, and these American stomachs are doing fine the next day.

  • 5/5 Roshan Kumar D. 4 years ago on Google
    The Olive Group’s first Indian cocktail bar, Ek Bar first opened doors in late 2015, and has recently undergone a full-scale refurbishment, with an entirely revamped food and bar menu, as well as significant décor and design changes. The space offers stylish, regionally-inspired cocktails by consultant mixologist Nitin Tewari, and small plates by Chef Manu Chandra, that redefine bar food as a genre, in a setting that is both vintage yet sexy. The all-new, 'Made in India' Ek Bar is perfect for a refined, discerning audience.'

  • 5/5 Mohit S. 4 years ago on Google
    Unique place to hangout in South Delhi. The ambience of this place is pretty cool. Great variety of food and drinks. A little overpriced and will definitely put a hole in your pocket.

  • 2/5 amit s. 4 years ago on Google
    Food is the main reason a person go out to eat. Fusion and experiment with food and all is fine but at the end of the day but there is limit to which basics may be compromised. This place breaks all barriers of decency when it comes to food, be it taste or portion size. Menu is confusing.

  • 5/5 Bhavishya W. 4 years ago on Google
    A good place to hang out, do try there 'Royal Indian Punch' Cocktail.

  • 5/5 Ritika B. 3 years ago on Google
    Best Place to visit.

  • 5/5 Bhawani H. 3 years ago on Google
    A great bar that we recently discovered near Lajpat. It has excellent food and drinks, which are European Indian fusion. For instance, a cocktail favorite such as a piña colada will have a few extra Indian style ingredients added. The bar interior has a 1920s style and feel to it. Plus, there is seating that feel private towards the back, seating outside to see the city or up near the bar. The bathroom is clean and provides an array of soaps and lotions.

  • 1/5 Esha K. 4 years ago on Google
    The worst experience ever .. we had booked the place for 20 people informing the staff that easily more than 30 people would come but we are giving the advance for 20 guest We were cheated.. it was mentioned that we would be give black label and ( btw we paid for greygoose we were served absolute because they didn’t have it ) absolute .. they were serving drinks in Smirnoff and teachers. Ridiculous service.. the drinks got over at 11:30.. I kept asking for a bottle for which I had paid for already and got it at 12:15 onky 15 mins before the bar shuts. The worst place I have ever been to. Chicken biryani didn’t have any chicken. My guess left complaining. I feel sorry for the owners as they don’t know what shot is going on in their bar and if they know this and supporting ... I feel bad that I got cheated on
