    Wish I could give this restaurant 7 stars! The view from the 28th floor was fabulous even when I went for dinner. The décor was so tasteful yet traditional and the lighting was just right making everything seem surreal. The Thai Chéf Mr Suriya Phusirimongkhonchai was simply an angel, he explained all the dishes to us and understood what we wanted and that we didn’t like too much spice in the food but just enough to get the flavours out. Everything he made simply blew my mind even though I’ve had items such as Pad Thai before, he’s very particular about his ingredients and doesn’t compromise on them at all. The Snapper je made for us was so crispy yet juicy but not oily, I’ve never had a friend fish like that in my life. The Jasmine Tea poured out made everything taste just right. I can go on and on about the various items he made for us including a Pad Thai encased in scrambled eggs but the highlight for me would be the Caramel Custard made with Jagerry and Coconut Milk. I’ve never tasted something like this in my life and it was so different and unique that I swallowed down a whole custard all by myself. Would want to come back here again and again to celebrate Thai food with Suriya and the exceptional staff of OKO.

    One of the best places to dine in Delhi. This place is extensively enormous to be at, located on the 28th floor of hotel. Which definitely complements with great views as well as high end dining experience. I am overwhelmed to be at this place. The food was top notch healthy in terms of nutrients and ingredients. Keep Trelling❤️

    brand new kid on the block or I must say on top of the city. Nestled on top floor of the iconic hotel #TheLalit New Delhi. It's the same place where once we had the "Blue Elephant" and then The Grill Room. Created beautifully,  retaining some of the elements from their older restaurants like the 5 Nobles,  Fu ,Lu and others... It's a vast expanse of place running almost 4 sides to give a 360 degree view of the capital city. A nice and cozy little bar with a live sushi counter on one side and on the other side is the live Tepenyaki counter facing the private dining rooms. Plush interiors decorated with carefully chosen artefacts and lighting. The furniture is classy and comfortable. Granite table tops are bold and big. The menu is equally grand covering the whole of Asia almost... The Tab version of the menu showcases pictures of most of the dishes from Japan,  Thailand,  China,  Vietnam, Indonesia, Korea etc. as well as incorporating the Wines and Bar menu nicely. We started with a Flight of Sashimi paired beautifully with Wine/Sake by none other than the Master of his art Donnadieu Charles ... Wow it was...  The Chef treated us with a great selection of Dimsums and Tepenyaki creations.  Even the vegetarian selection like the sweet potato,  eggplant and the Brocolli was amazingly delicious.

    Great experience, definitely recommend! It’s pricier for india and the meals are on the smaller side, but you get your money’s worth. Meals range from 800-1300 rupee, with pricey goods likes lobster around 1800. Hotel guests get a 10% discount. Overall, 5/5 (and the bathroom is so cool! Heated seats!!!)

    One word - Great food !! Tried this place after seeing the ratings and undoubtedly it food was complete worth. We limited ourselves to the lite bites only but was worth filling. Totally loved the lip smacking coconut milk dessert. Special mention on Ms. Sonali, who took the extra care while serving the food.

    Lalit recently launched oko pan asia food destination where you can enjoy chinese, thai, japnese, continental dishes... I love this place because of interior and ambience.. they have huge seating arrangement where you stay comfortably with your friends and family. Usp is this restaurant is placed at 28th floor from where you can ejoy the top view of delhi city. I visit this restaurant with my friend, we ordered one chef spl pizza which was so tasty and crunchy.. its no bake , no cook and no cheese pizza. I love it. I tried mango sushi roll, mushroom baos, nachos with chinese sauce. All are just amazing and mouthwatering dishes. Quality of food and service was also good.

    A friend suggested this place and after hearing a lot I made a visit with my Gang. The main USP of this place is, it's located in the heart of Delhi CP and that too on the 28th floor which highest in Delhi. The place has a nice warm vibes when you enter and staff was courteous to greet you. The view from the 28th floor was a different experience and with ambience which has all the basic correct keep upto the name "The Lalit" Let's talk about the Food now:- We started with Jasmine tea which was complimentary, it has such a soothing flavor which definitely a good way to start any meal. Chicken Satay: I am used to eating all desi type of chicken satay in Delhi but this was something different, it was chicken on the skewer and dipped in egg, company with freshly made peanut sauce. It was tender and flavorful. (MUST HAVE) WOK Fried Prawns: Again the prawns were so juicy and fresh that It made us order twice. Salmon Sushi: I my latest crush on Sushi became more serious with Salmon Sushi, the Salmon was so soft and succulent, loved the overall Texture. They also have amazing cocktails starting from their own Flamy Lalit spcl. signature cocktail and LIIT is must have here. Truly a Pan Asian Destination, try it for food and music with the ONLY view possible in Delhi (from 28th FLOOR).

    Ambience and view is great from the 28 th floor of The Lalit. Could not get window side table dispite of booking the table well in advance and requesting for the same on valentine's day. There was a vacant window side Table but I was informed it's reserved and no one came till one hour till the time I left. Table was well decorated with flowers and candle light dinner was good. Food quality was ok not that great, very less good options for vegetarians.

  • 3/5 Paromita M. 1 year ago on Google
    Recently, in the 1st week of July , we came across an offer of Lunch buffet at OKO for Rs.1500+ 18% GST per person. Me and my old friends decided to meet up there for lunch on Saturday. I'll tell you what all we liked and what we did not. 1.LIKE-- a. The location on the 28th floor is great. b. The 360 degree view of CP, Shanker market, The ring railway station, Modern School compound, etc was awesome. You can spend hours sitting by the window , watching and eating. c. Decoration and furniture is lovely- comfortable and beautiful. d. Staff behaviour - polite and courteous. e. Cleanliness- was spick and span as the HK guy kept on wiping to keep it spotlessly clean. We were the first ones to arrive there. f. Washroom - very well maintained. g. Service - Was timely ( won't say prompt) . h. Food was tasty, desserts were great and plating was fine. 2. DID NOT LIKE.-- 1. It was a buffet, so the portion sizes were very very small, NOT fit for a 5 star hotel buffet lunch.-- A single spring roll was thinner and smaller than my thumb and it was cut into two and served. Just two pieces per person. 2. The pieces of chicken in Kung Pao dry, Chicken smoked Red pepper and Fish Salt and Pepper were extremely small, Slightly bigger than my thumb nail, maybe 1 inch by 1inch. 3. The number of fish/ chicken pieces served on my plate were two pieces (first time) and next time ONLY ONE PIECE with TONS of fried onions- just to increase the amount served on a plate and fool the guest.. I was really unhappy. I told the service boy to give more chicken pieces ,to all of us and NOT tons of fried onions. He just smiled and said sorry and went away. He did not serve the item again. 4. The Thai curry was watery, not thick. Less coconut milk was used. Vegetable pieces in it was less. 5. Not very satisfied with the quantity of food. Do not understand , why the chefs cooked less and instructed the service boys to serve less. 6. We were not allowed to go to the buffet counter to pick up the food and the quantity as per our choice.

  • 5/5 Dessidre F. 5 years ago on Google
    Aside from the fact that the food here is stellar - from the Tofu to the Barbecued chicken satay and from the mixed vegetable to the sushi - the cocktails created are so nourishing and refreshing. You can tell that they're made with zero preservatives or artificial sweeteners. The sangria is their best! It's a lovely intimate experience, located on the 28th floor of the Lalit Hotel. But what I love best is that fact that the team at Oko is an all-women and transgenders team and it's so empowering to see them gracefully slay at their roles. It automatically makes the place a very positive, open and inclusive experience that I would recommend even men and kids need. Definitely go here for a lovely family dinner; kids included. Oko is a lesson in cultural diversity. It is the future of F&B in India.

    Absolutely fantastic! We went there twice, both evenings were great. Try the fried vegetables, they’re an absolute delight! Service is very friendly and helpful, the interior is beautiful and cozy. The food tasted amazing, we tried several appetizers and all of them tasted fresh and very good!

    The restaurant is located in 28th floor of the old building, food is normal and slowly served, noisy with lound music, i think by myself that's should call " pub" rather than a restaurant.

  • 5/5 JJ Empower S. 9 months ago on Google
    OKO is a great place to go for a special occasion meal. The food is delicious and the service is excellent. The ambience is also very nice, with a 360-degree view of Delhi. I would definitely recommend OKO to anyone looking for a great dining experience in Connaught Place

  • 5/5 Francis Xavier G. 9 months ago on Google
    OKO is giving wonderful service. They provide quality coffee and are always willing to help customers. Their customer service is one of the reasons why they are so popular. It also offers a wide range of foods and drinks that can be customized to suit the taste of each individual patron. They also provide free Wi-Fi and comfortable seating options, making it a great place to relax and enjoy a cup of coffee. They are also committed to sustainability and are always looking for ways to reduce their environmental impact.

👍👍 Absolutely love their rice combos. Paneer rice is my all time favourite. Great option for dinner, if you work nearby. If you're looking for a place for quick bites, then you need to visit this place.
