Good ambiance, delicious food. Our pulao was superb and fluffy, and the chicken curry tender and well spiced. Service can't be faulted, albeit a tad overt attentive. Overall, a great value and pleasant experience.
We came just for dessert after an underwhelming dinner experience at Bukhara and we were blown away! Food - tried the kulfi and gulab kheer. Both was outstanding Service - Right from the staff at reception (Lakhoub - sorry getting name wrong) to Gautam who attended us were extremely warm and courteous. The staff overall walked with a smile and were cheerful - they seemed to enjoy what they are doing unlike Bukhara Atmosphere - Fitting for a 5*. We had live music with the pianist playing away classic Hindi music, in a hall reminiscing of Awadhi court. The space was well-lit and had a charm in itself Will totally come back here for dinner/lunch. The team leading the service and front desk - you are amazing!
Excellent food. And great and very friendly service. Achita made our dinning experience most memorable. And great and very friendly service.
"I had an exceptional dining experience at Dum Pukht. The ambiance was elegant, and the food was absolutely divine—each dish was rich in flavor and perfectly cooked. A special mention goes to Mr. Virinder Prasad, whose service was truly outstanding. He was attentive, warm, and went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable evening. His knowledge of the menu and recommendations made the experience even more delightful. Highly recommended for anyone looking to indulge in fine dining with impeccable service!"
