I
found
the
place
a
tad
overrated.
Its
location
next
to
an
alcohol
shop
didn't
create
much
anticipation,
especially
with
an
odd
crowd
hanging
around
and
giving
us
uncomfortable
stares.
Once
you
enter,
the
dark
aesthetic
makes
an
initial
impact
which
lingers.
The
bar
area
outshines
the
dining
space,
and
I
must
say,
the
music
is
absolutely
top-notch
-
a
solid
10/10.
Once
the
drinks
start
flowing,
the
place
does
improve.
The
cocktails
are
decent,
but
I
mean,
that's
to
be
expected,
right?
However,
the
Espresso
Martini
was
a
huge
disappointment
-
I'd
rate
it
a
-5/10.
They
seem
to
have
no
clue
how
to
make
a
proper
Espresso
Martini.
The
Calendula
Punch
had
a
good
initial
punch
but
grew
boring
after
a
few
sips
due
to
its
overly
sweet
and
unbalanced
flavors.
Shopian
was
enjoyable.
The
food
was
good,
as
it
should
be,
nothing
extraordinary.
The
Chicken
Star
Anise
stood
out,
and
the
Chicken
Satay
would
get
a
7/10
from
me
-
I've
definitely
had
it
better
elsewhere.
Hawker-style
noodles
and
other
dishes
were
satisfactory
but
not
memorable.
Service
is
fine.
Staff
is
polite.
Ultimately,
the
place
didn't
leave
me
awestruck.
The
music
does
a
good
job
of
compensating
for
what's
lacking!
If
nothing
else,
definitely
go
for
the
music!
If
you
are
looking
to
dine,
there
are
far
better
places
in
Delhi!
