  • 5/5 Pranta N. 5 months ago on Google • 144 reviews
    Beautiful ambiance and people who work there. You can sit either in the air conditioned area or the outdoor. I recommend the latter because it’s beautiful done. The way they have put up the place is great. The staff’s suggestion was to try out thier pasta and it was splendid. Full of flavour and large portion. The price was also around 650 which is so much better than places that charge 1000+ for a pasta. A very chill atmosphere. Definitely recommend this place. You might want to reserve a table because post 8pm it gets buzzing.

    Gorgeous cafe with extremely picturesque surroundings, hard to not be charmed by all the natural beauty witnessed while dining in the outdoor seating here. Food is also extremely presentable and palatable. The kind of place where you can sit and lose track of time, loved the overall experience here. Tip : it's usually crowded and wait time is guaranteed so time your visits wisely.

    First things first, I loved the ambience. It's inside an army area so the neatness and cleanliness is top notch. The lady at the front desk was welcoming and lovely. I loved the way she initiated the conversation while getting us a good seat. As the evening fell upon us, the lights made the ambience better. Everything felt nice. There was a small cute dog who was repeatedly greeting us and getting our garlic breads as a reward. His cute face was an added bonus. The food though, not that great. It was not up to the mark as the taste was nothing special, sometimes bland. My friends had told me that the cafe was overrated. I somewhat disagree. The food is overrated. The other things, awesome. Overall, it's a wonderful one time experience. Haven't yet visited it again, so I'm not sure if it's a suitable multi time getaway or not.

    More than the food I loved the ambience and the beautifully decorated and lighted up place. Sitting there in such a pleasing place, trust me nothing else mattered. We ordered the usual white sauce pasta and pizza. Well,finally I would say is just go here if you’re in Delhi with your loved ones not for it’s food but its aesthetic and cozy vibe. It feels like Christmas without Christmas here. Look it for yourself in the photos

    Wonderful outlet of Diggin that is perfect for the winter season. I've been here 2 times, and absolutely love the ambience, the food, the staff and ofcourse the entire vibe of how the place feels. Coffee, pizza, pasts are the major food items that we had ordered and loved every bit of the entire experience. Also, Christmas vibes in the air meant, the entire place is done beautifully. ❤️ Review date: December, 19th, 2023.

    This cafe is located in the market area of the airforce colony. We went here for my birthday dinner. There was a queue even at 7pm in the evening but we got seats inside in about 20 minutes. The waiting line for outside seating was even longer. The decor is quite gram-worthy. We had pizza, pie and a mocktail. Everything was great. It gave the vibe of an old colonial era cafe.

    The ambience is amazing. The lights are perfect. The food os decent. We took coffee, pizza and apple pie in dessert. Everything fine. Even the price isn't that high. Overall good experience, perfect for a date night. Just a piece of advice, if you are going on a weekend, reach by 7ish. You might have to wait for a table.

    The ambience, the crowd, the food, the service, the location, everything is too good. It's a perfect place if you want to go on a date with someone. The Cheese garlic bread is so smooth that it goes smoothly inside when you eat it. We ordered three different drinks and all three were so relaxing for this summery weather.

    Diggin is famous for its ambience and the milieu which it brings to the table. It is usually crowded on the weekends but it has its own reason—the vibe. Its full of greenery if you are sitting in the outside area. One of the best places for dates, brunches, lunch etc. We had seashells pesto, farmers fresh veggies pizza, mix sauce pasta, virgin mojito by the pitcher and some desserts. The service was good and so was the food. The kind of place where you want to enjoy and have great food with a touch of picturesque view. Sharing some videos and photos of the same. Do show you support by like/comment Happy dining

  • 4/5 Delhi Food N. 3 months ago on Google • 170 reviews New
    Had a delightful Christmas date at Cafe Diggin ! The Chicken Loaded Pizza was a savory delight, complemented perfectly by the refreshing Apple Mojito. The Apple Pie was a sweet conclusion to the meal. The charming decorations added to the overall pleasing ambiance. Despite a waiting time of 40 to 1 hour due to the Christmas rush, the experience at Cafe Diggin was absolutely worth it. The delightful food and charming ambiance made the wait worthwhile, creating a memorable Christmas date. Highly recommend for a great dining experience!

  • 5/5 Kunal M. 2 years ago on Google
    I thought it to be one of those obscenely rated places which result in disappointing experiences after initial hype build, but surprisingly, the place did live up to those ratings. The cafe is located in the residential complex of Air Force Personnel in the greenest part of Delhi (I was asked for a photo ID before entry). The entrance is quite striking with Monsoon setting up the perfect theme for a romantic lunch. Or maybe a soothing get together with friends. The decor is vivid and charming with two outdoor seating areas and one indoor air-conditioned section. The place almost feels as if you're sitting in a cafe set up in a Himachali valley. We arrived around lunch and ordered Lamb Burgers and Ravioli (which was well thought and delicious) and the service was prompt. We did not have to wait for a table but the place seemed to get crowded during late lunch hours. Overall, I had a delectable experience and would definitely stumble upon this beautiful little place again.

    After two visits to this place when I didn't get chance to eat because of hours of waiting, finally able to hit the place on Monday morning as their first guest of day. With supreme expectations, will say this cafe did not able to surpass the level I desired for and will rate this cafe 'over-hyped'. Food - 3.5/5 Drinks - 5/5 Service - 3.5/5 Vibe- 4/5 Had chocolate mocha shake, vegetarian Quattro pizza and vegetable cannelloni. Loved the shake- the ice, mocha and chocolate are perfectly blend together, the thickness, texture and taste of shake was superior rich. Cannelloni- The mixture of sauce, cheese and spices were drooling. The cannelloni was perfectly cooked. The filling was taste though very dry and hence having only filling separately does not give pleasure taste. Another disappointment was bread - it was stale. Quattro pizza (wheat base) - Unable to had taste of all four cheese - either the base or cheese was not fresh. Service - The food was ordered quite in time. However, there are 2 instances which I personally didn't like: - The staff asked a 8 months pregnant lady to wait outside in scorching heat and did not offer her seat inside even after the cafe's opening time as they were cleaning - At such premium places, it is expected that staff asks for review of food and taste particularly when it's not crowded. However they didn't do so over here. Would advise to go to other premium cafe's like big chill etc than this cafe. Even if you want to visit this one, visit in evening for the good vibe.

    Diggin is a Beautiful place. If you’re going on weekend you surely have to wait as the place is really crowded for positive reasons. But I can say it is worth the wait. We ate so much at this place and everything was upto the mark. I love love the Italian soup and pizza. Pasta was cool. The cafe is designed beautifully with touch of greens. Dessert were also treat. They was so delicious that you would not want to stop eating.

  • 4/5 TANU A. 2 years ago on Google
    Ambience : 4 Desserts : 4 Food :3 Its a romantic place specially in monsoon. Outdoor seating adds the feel. However, indoor ambience is also quite nice! Drinks: No alcohol. All the mocktails/smoothies have artificial fruit syrups , they don't use natural fruits. Soups: Tried Smoked Mushroom soup, liked it. Minestrone soup is also good. Minestrone has noodles with veggies . Food : Average. Nothing special about this place for pizza and pasta from taste perspective. Although , one different dish , which i liked the most is Canneloni (from Diggin Specials). It has a filling of spinach and brocolli inside ricotta cheese baked in tomato and cheese sauce. Tasty and a unique dish! Desserts : One should really try their upside pineapple pastrt. It is hot pastry served with gelato. Overall , not much expensive. No extra service tax! Must try place!

    This place is a hidden gem... As you walk past the security guards, take a right. As you enter the lane, you'll spot many small boutiques. Towards the end, when you cross the decorative bridge, you'll find Diggin on your right. Hiding between an elite Chankyapuri area of Delhi, Diggin Cafe surely is classy with beautiful interiors and equally good food, mostly Italian. The restaurant offers indoor and outdoor seating. Reservation is highly recommended, so you don't waste your time waiting to be seated. It's always crowded, apparently. Overall, the food is decent l, drinks was great and the staff is friendly too ...

    Great food, great ambience albeit not the most affordable but quality is at par with top cafes I've ever been to. Grilled chicken and fried fish were delicious, drinks could've been better and menu had spaces for more dishes. Sitting area is both indoors and outdoors, waiting time was around 10 minutes on a weekday so yes weekends will have a rush. The cafe is inside a military area so you will be needing to show an ID proof for smooth entry. Lots of other beautiful cafes are around it too. Highly recommended.

    Wonderful place to spend evenings here. Well maintained premise inside the Air Force Station, New Delhi, West Flank. Diggin Cafe is inside Santushti shoping complex. Food, drink beverages served here is excellent quality with unique taste and flavour. We had Prawn soup, Cheesy tuna melt, Fish & chips, Italian Lemonade and Jasmine tea. Really we enjoyed each of it. The ambiance sinked in music is fabulous. Diggin will drive you to a relaxing and wonderful mood.

  • 5/5 Jahanvi g. 8 months ago on Google
    Every time I have visited this cafe, it has never failed to impress me. The ambiance exudes an English classic and chic vibe, with small details like wall plate hangings, wooden chairs, cute ceramics, and antique items adorning the shelves. It truly creates a charming and cozy atmosphere that enhances the overall dining experience. When it comes to their menu, there are a few standout items that you should definitely try. For beverages and drinks, their Chocolate Mocha Shake and Guava Punch, a savory beverage, are highly recommended. In terms of pasta, the Seashell Pesto Pasta, topped with tossed chestnuts and cooked in a delightful herb sauce, is a must-try. Their Farmer's Fresh Pizza on a wheat crust is a delicious choice, and their Vegetarian Lasagna is another delectable option. Overall, this cafe is a great choice for a cozy cafe outing. The ambiance, combined with the delightful food choices, creates a memorable experience. However, it is worth noting that on weekends, there might be a waiting time of 30-45 minutes, so it is advisable to plan your visit on weekdays to avoid the crowds and ensure a smoother dining experience.

    One of the prettiest cafe i have ever seen. The food was more tasty, i order Spaghetti (red sauce) , and farmhouse veg pizza . Also nobody has mentioned that this place is in Air Force society so you should carry your valid id so you can easily enter. As far as i know good place to take that long winter walks as well ❤️

    Beautiful ambience. You certainly need an ID proof to enter the army premises. It’s quite, spacious and alcohol free. Italian food wins all brownie points. Flourless chocolate fudge cake is absolutely delectable. The mock tails are just average.

    A famous cafe nestled in Santushti complex near Ashoka hotel in Chanakyapuri this place is always bustling with people. Even though they don't take reservations we were lucky to find a table for lunch on a Friday afternoon. The ambiance is cute but the outside garden seating is mesmerising. The service is very very swift and the food is delicious. I strongly recommend the four cheese pizza and the calzones and the mocktails. The pricing is great too. There are some fabulous dessert options but we stuck to the good old brownie and ice cream.

    A Cute Cafe Located inside the shopping complex. The vibe is what the hype is all about I guess. Food is good, nothing extraordinary, just a regular menu like any other Delhi cafe. The taste is undoubtedly great. A decent place for Instagram worthy photos, specially on festive days when it's all decked up. Overall a passable experience keeping in mind the waiting period of 2 hours on the day of Christmas.

    Looking for a cute cafe for romantic dates/outings with your friends? Diggin, is just so apt for it This cafe has such an adorable,romantic vibe & a lovely outdoor seating. It’s not just a beautiful cafe with outstanding food as this place genuinely takes covid precautions so well which makes this experience so much better in these crucial times. The cafe has all types of remarkable dishes but their signature ravioli is a must-try as it’s nothing but the definition of delicious.

    First of all it's a beautiful restaurant and with even more energetic green environment. Secondly the food is top notch. Like every Food item I had was cooked to perfection. The Chicken Jalapeno Pizza is the best Pizza I have had till now. The Mint Virgin Mojito is made with perfection. The combination of these 2 are absolutely worth it. Plus the The dessert - Chocofudge cake with Vanilla will give You a ride to heaven.. Cheers Diggin🥂

    Diggin is true to the fact that it is an instagram worthy place with its decor nicely done and giving very flowery vibes. The sitting arena is very spacious and comfortable. The pizzas are worth a try and absolutely loved them but pasta was a little bland so they corrected it for us. For anyone trying to reach by metro, nearest metro station for this place is Lok Kalyan Marg on yellow line.

The ambiance had a Christmas vibe going on, it was great. We had pizzas / burgers/ salad. Everything was good I had a lamb burger it was tasty and good serving. Will differently recommend this place.

    Can’t complain about anything just amazing experience and great service. The atmosphere is also very aesthetic. By mistake one of our shakes got spilled and they refilled the shake without charging anything. You need to show you id before going inside as there is high security.

    I recently went there for a small gathering on my birthday. The place is really serene and the aesthetics are really good. If you want some grammmable' posts, this place got you. And the staff was super nice. I tried their spinach ravioli in pink sauce which was amazing and the pizza was also good , but they took a lot of time to make it ( maybe because there was a rush). The super nice thing they did was to take my friend's order for pasta without onion and garlic and the taste was good. It was really great goin there 🩵.

    My recently vist to this café that I really liked. It had a great atmosphere that made you feel comfortable and relaxed. The food was amazing; they had a lot of different things to choose from. The place itself looked really nice and had a cool vibe. The best part was the staff – they were polite and helpful, making the experience even better. Plus, when I went, the weather was just perfect, which added to the overall enjoyment. It's a fantastic place to hang out with friends. You can chat, relax, and have a good time. The only downside is that the food can be a bit pricey, so it might not be the best option if you're on a tight budget. However, the overall experience is so great that I think it's worth it. I'd definitely recommend this café to anyone looking for a memorable and enjoyable place to eat and hang out.

    Loved the place. The ambience is amazing. Food was nice, few things are really awesome, others need improvement. Beverages are fantastic. I tried Fettuccini Al Fungus(5/5), Farmer's Fresh Veggie Pizza(4/5) & Crispy Chicken Sandwich(2/5). Beverages- Guava Punch(4/5), Passion Fruit Caprioska(4/5), Mint Virgin Mojito(5/5) and Rosemary something(I don't remember the full name but it was from the special menu(5/5) Along with banoffee pie(5/5) Overall the place is awesome and the food is decent. You can visit with family, or friends/colleagues or your partner. Suitable for semi-professional meets as well. P.S. the place is inside the Air Force managed area and the parking is a little bit away and only one person can go to the parking.

    Diggin is always a good idea. It’s a pretty cafe with amazing food, and variety of options to choose from. I’d definitely recommend Pasta and Shakes here. This particular one is located inside Santushti complex, so it’s not right on the road. You can expect a waiting of 15-20mins especially on weekends

    This is one of the most beautiful cafe in Delhi! The atmosphere is very chill and great customer service. Variety of options to choose from. Price is bit High as this cafe is located in the Air Force Area. A great place for good photography although it is prohibited(no one even look at that board). Food is really nice. Try chicken burger for sure.

    Diggin cafe is a good to go place for a evening outing or a date. It's situated 8j front of samrat hotel. Best time to visit is evening as you will see the true beauty of this place.it looks so beautiful and aesthetic. There is a waiting time if around half hour but you won't feel that you are wasting your time by waiting as the waiting area is gorgeous. The staff is courteous and professional. Not too costly but not too cheap also.

    also “a Date Cafe”, visited this cafe on multiple occasions.. don’t go here for : Food ❌ Ambiance ✅ The decor of the cafe just makes it more appealing and the vibe there is very different from other small cafes open in santushti complex. You’ll be asked an Identity Proof to enter this place, and yes it has an ample space to park your vehicles.

    I visited this place on Sunday afternoon and to my surprise there was a waiting of 1 hour. No proper place to sit or wait. Since we were in a leisure mood, we explored the stores nearby for some shopping which were quite expensive. Then we finally got our seat and the food was good but more good was the ambience. It is beautiful inside. Though I wouldn't have regretted skipping this place considering the long queue. Avoid going on a weekend as they don't take prior bookings. The shopping complex nearby is nothing great. You need adhar/id proof to get inside the complex since it is in the restricted army area.

    A lovely place to visit, especially during Christmas/New year and other festivals. Located in a posh area, the ambience and the crowd is good. The cafe is beautifully decorated during festivals. You can get great pics clicked in and around the cafe (DSLR is not allowed). The service good, and the don't charge any service tax as well. We just had a single food item and a couple of drinks. Those were decent. Only con is that, most of the times, there is 1-1.5 hrs waiting. Also, it's not for music/dance lovers.

    This one is too crowded with a waiting of almost 1.5 hours on weekends. Its located inside Santushti shopping area. Easy to locate. The best part is there is parking available and its free! This place is a little bit hyped. People are too excited about a place where you get normal Italian food and huge waiting. The place is good for photography but again its just a normal cafe with a lot of school Christmas decorations. Dont go if you dont want to wait. And Yes people from HIGH SOCIETY come here often and you may spot celebrities once a while. They dont tak online reservations. P.S. -While waiting dont step on the Grass!

    Verdant exteriors, plush interiors, scrumptious food, and an ambience that’s too inviting to resist - that’s what Diggin stands for. Bustling with foodies from across the city, this place offers a range of toothsome Italian and Continental meals, ones that can give any eatery a run for their money! This pretty much sums up as to why this popular cafe is among the most sought-after ones in the city. I recommend their Vegetarian Lasagne which is replete with oodles of mozzarella cheese and exotic vegetables. Additionally, their Cheesy

    One of the aesthetic cafes I have visited was this place. Every corner looks good and photogenic. The previous year, I had visited the Diggin of CP and already knew about the quality and taste of food. No complaints in the food department. The staff were polite as well. Overall, a lovely experience. Food- 4.5/5 Aesthetic- 5/5 Staff- 5/5 Parking: Yes.

    The ambience of the cafe is amazing, the whole setting is romantic and very springy. Coming to the food, it was pretty good. I tried the chocolate mocha shake and chicken risotto pasta. I definitely recommend the dessert and beverage options.

    Never in my years in Delhi have I seen a prettier cafe. Absolutely beautiful Atmosphere. Perfect for dates, hangout with friends or just having a good time munching on good food. Try fettuccine and chicken loaded pizza. Do not miss this one.

    Nice place especially for desserts and Italian food. Pizza here is amazing which they make in brick oven and truly loaded with toppings. Shakes and pastries are also very yummy and ambiance is so soothing and calm.. also take some time in hand as you might have to wait a bit.

    A really beautiful and cozy cafe. Ambience is really good, with a polite staff and great service. Went there with friends and had an amazing time. Ordered Ravioli with Chicken Bolognese, Pesto pepper pizza, Grilled sea fish and Tiramisu. For drinks, we ordered Berry Berry smoothie, Banana and Strawberry smoothie and classic cold coffee. All the dishes were perfectly cooked and seasoned, and were really delicious and drinks were quite tasty as well. Really loved the vibe there. Just keep in mind that you might have to wait before getting seated but it's worth it. Would surely recommend it. Food: 5/5 Ambience: 5/5 Service: 5/5

    I was pleasantly surprised to see the ambience. Nestled in the heart of the city in south Delhi, it is difficult to make from outside that such quaint place exists in Delhi. In today's time my preference was to find an iron dining space. Diggin offers 70% seating in the open which is good in winters. There is ample parking and the best thing is that it is Free. Only driver is allowed in the parking. Visitors need to alight prior to parking. They also check identity cards and hence it is a good idea to carry one on you. Food is good but ambience tops. Over all a good place to visit with family and friends.

  • 5/5 Karan S. 3 years ago on Google
    Excellent experience. Whether it is the location, parking convenience, of course food.... No complaints. We ordered vegetarian dishes and had ample choices. The staff was courteous. Would definitely head back again. Last order taken at 9.30 p.m. so plan accordingly. Also... No reservations allowed.

    The ambiance of this place is very good. It's very soothing and comfortable. It is the perfect place to grab a quick coffee and snack with better half. Since it is one of the most famous dating spots in Delhi, do expect at least half an hour of waiting time in week days and about an hour on weekends. They serve amazing pastas and capachino prepared from freshly crushed coffee beans. The pizzas are not so worth it but the smoothies are superb. The bestest part was the slice of Cheese Cake, it was breathtaking and made the place worth a second visit. To put it in a nutshell, I pen down saying that it is one of the best dating spots that one could find in Delhi or if you are looking for a nice and comfortable place to hang out with friends.

    This is one of the most beautiful cafe in Delhi! The atmosphere is very chill and great customer service. Price is bit High as this cafe is located in the Air Force Area. great place for good photography although it is prohibited(no one even look at that board). Taste is kind of ok ok (average) but ambience tops. I was pleasantly surprised to see the ambience.

    The food is really good, the vibe of the place is good too.. and the place isn't very much crowded considering it is inside a restricted air force station colony. The decor of the place is lovely. They even have a special winter menu.

  • 5/5 Aashray R. 2 years ago on Google
    A good place to hangout with friends as well as for a romantic date. It is located inside the premises of residential complex of Air force. The ambience is just adorable with plants all over making it more beautiful. Food is also delicious with great presentation. A must visit!! In monsoons the real beauty comes out as the lighting if perfectly beautiful, plants appear more green and everything becomes just more and more beautiful.

    This place was always in list to visit and explore. It is fulfilled this Sunday. If you are following Google map to reach then at last stop you'll be bit confuse so here is the trick. At last you need to take your car inside the wellington camp gate and ask for Diggin. You may checked at entrance of gate. Btw, the parking is free. There is hell lot of shops and it is actually a small market cum complex. You can easily find Diggin while walking. Just ask for the table and you'll be seated if it is available or else you'll ask to wait. The fully Italian menu is at your desk. We choose veg pizza, pasta, garlic bread, french fries, banana smoothie, cold latte and hot mocha. It was a wonderful experience with food. Both the coffee was average. Mocha is not having chocolate and latte doesn't have become sweet even after pouring of 6 sachet do sugar. The ambience is chill and score full marks. The outdoor area is actually covered so there will not be any direct sun light and the place is covered with fan and coolers. Must visit. The bill would be around 1500 to 2k for two people.

    Great environment, okayish food in short. Diggin Chanakyapuri is located inside Santushti complex. This is the only food joint here, rest being souvenir shopping stores. The environment is beautiful, outdoor seating is fantastic. There is a queue generally, but we got a seat in 25 minutes against promised 45 minutes. The place is well lit and music is low, so you can converse. Service is fast too. Mind you, there is no washroom of Diggin - you may need to go outside in case. Food is okay. While chicken cordon bleu was absolutely fantastic, both the pizzas (overload chicken and jalapeno chicken) were hard, chewy and not at all juicy. This is my second time here and although the pizzas are a favourite here for most people, I would seriously not recommend them. Rather go for the Diggin specials. 🅿️ Parking: Yes, outside. ♿Wheelchair accessible parking: Yes, outside. ♿Wheelchair accessible entrance: Yes. 🌡️Temperature check: No. 😷Mask required: No. 🎭Social distancing followed: No. 🎷Music: Yes, mild. 💉Vaccination certificate: Not required. 🚮 Recycling: No. 🚼 Child-friendly: Yes. 🚻 Toilets: Yes, outside.

    If you are a foodie you will find it an above average cafe. Had zucchini fries, they were good. Farm house pizza was ok (definitely way better than fast good pizzas). Bacon chicken blue cheese burger had a not so full filling bite. The bun could have been better and chicken filing was too dry for my taste. For the desert I had walnut brownie with vanilla scoop, the brownie had a hard crust like you get when its reheated over.

  • 4/5 Adit R. 2 years ago on Google
    The vibe of the cafe is really impressive! The quantity of food they give is no joke, you gotta have a big appetite to really enjoy couple of dishes here in one sitting. The only drawback is, they don't take reservations, atleast not over the weekends, so you gotta wait, sometimes for an hour, to get a table here. Overall, the place is a real charmer. Quite enjoyable to go with friends as well as family.

  • 5/5 Dr. Rashi A. 2 years ago on Google
    Wow would be the words I will use to describe the place . Prefer to go in the evening as the lights make the place all more beautiful plus the service is amazing . Food tastes good witnh servers being polite and good portion size of food

    Place was very cheerful and peaceful, waiting was for longer around one hour. Many stores are nearby to explore in waiting time. Waiting for two is less as compare to more than two. About food - food was delicious and less spicy. I loved the place and food.

    The ambience was calm and soothing. In my opinion it's good place to hangout. It's more of a couple's hangout place. Specially loved the Tiramisu cake here, it's a must try.

  • 4/5 Anvi J. 2 years ago on Google
    There's no reservation, it's first come first serve. The food was good but the servings felt relatively small when compared to the prices. The atmosphere was simply amazing. The greenery and the lights, everything was pretty, honestly a perfect spot for clicking pictures.

  • 5/5 Harshit O. 1 year ago on Google
    Great food, great ambience, great location also. Only downside is it being overcrowded on weekends and holidays, and they don't have any online booking system so you have wait near the cafe only. The wait is mostly worth the food though! We tried their pepperoni pizza, spinach ravioli and tuna melt bruschetta, but my personal favourite is their Pineapple Upside Down 😍

    Place looks soo lovely with all the Christmas decorations. But with all the crowd present there the experience it didn't felt that much enjoyable. Waiting time may be long. But other than the crowd the food, service and atmosphere are all excellent.
