  • 4/5 Uzair K. 5 years ago on Google • 254 reviews
    It actually deserves 3 stars but since it's the first of its kind I am giving one extra star for the effort and idea. The place is built inside the narrow lanes of old Delhi but gives you feeling of a raw lounge. Didn't eat here hence cannot comment anything on food but it has to be good only since it is in old Delhi. Drinks taste fine with no alcoholic drinks, hookah however is there. Outdoor seating is available and mist spray are also set up. Ambience is normal. Staff however is not trained enough.

    Good ambience and quality food. If you are traveling to old Delhi then yes for good quality food this is the destination. Road towards this destination is not good but once you reach there you can relax and chill-out.

    Lovely place with very good ambiance. Delicious food. Staffs were very nice. Order was taken and executed swiftly.From outside it doesn't look like such a place even exist there. Spacious and lovely. You can literally sit there for hours.

    Once you are bored of just having Street food in the galees here, you should definitely visit this place to experience true hospitality. The staff was humble and service really quick.

    Snucked in here for some lunch while my friend visited the nearby Jama Masjid. This rooftop cafe is a quiet little corner that one can hide from the bustle of the streets outside. Although the meals are relatively expensive, the pasta and pizza were pretty good. Had my first shisha experience here too!

    Food is good, service is good. Seems like a place for tourists, portion is on the smaller end by Indian standards and slightly pricier. Very clean, good restrooms as well. Nice balcony dining area.

    We were a small group of three and reached the walled city with the help of Google navigation and by asking the local people. Congested roads and some what unhygienic streets may give you a discomfort but once you reach the restaurant you can just forget all the stuff. Located on the first floor of the building, a pleasant place with good music and colorful environment makes the experience better. Ambience was good and we tried both Non veg and veg dishes which tasted fine. Outdoor seating is even present in the restaurant which can be preferred during evening times due to colorful lighting and design of seating etc. Charge will be moderate to high in range. Everyone like friends couples kids family can visit this place. People serving are well mannered and polite. People exploring new new places to dine out will enjoy for sure. Overall experience was good.

    Located in the heart of Jama Masjid.. The lane is full of auto spareparts old and new..... this place is at walkable distance from chandni choke.... Food is delicious...... got steamy hot aloo chaat .... Afghan chicken.... paneer roll...... Other recipes include the main course items..... Recommended for couple or friends...... a local budget place to eat....and chill out... preferred for dinner lunch or to just snack up..... #lovedtheplacelovedthefood

    Sad to see it’s temporarily closed, had visited this place almost 5 years ago and felt a sense of extreme calmness within the bustling and chaotic surroundings. Nice open and airy terraces and central courtyard remind one of the architecture of a time gone by. Service was excellent and staff polite and non intrusive, I recall spending hours with books and discussions with our friends. Hope to see it open again.

  • 4/5 Olyaver T. 4 years ago on Google
    Chicken tikka was tasty but for 219 rupees you'll get only 4 small pieces. A small cup of tea is 89 rupees. 10% service charge.

    Ok

  • 3/5 Ankit C. 4 years ago on Google
    Located in the old city, the cafe lacks the elements that you might want to experience in a cafe situated in old delhi. There is a lot that the owners can do to make it more appealing and provide a unique experience to travellers. If you are confused between walled city cafe and dharampura, please always pick dharampura

    A gem hiding in the alley... The food is delicious and the place is cosy (you will need to go into the aircon place in summer)

👍👍 Very tasty food. Its a must try item. The place is usually busy and crowded. But worth the wait i would say. Also they serve only half and full portions of chicken. Not too expensive for the quantity and quality. highly Recommended.
