Some of the best dishes we had in our trip to darjeeling. Good aalloo parattas, Bombay sandwich, nachos, pizza etc. very good for the price they are charging. Ambience of the cafe is good, do try out the combos of the day.

We went here on the basis of Lonely planet recommendation (fast becoming a watchword for avoidance). We ordered Tacos and Enchiladas for Rs100 each. The food arrived 20 minutes later and we couldn't believe how small the portions were.

The place is nice for vegetarian people and serves decent food. Do not try to order bruschettas or things like that because I was disappointed by the chef in those areas.

A small unobtrusive place which has really good vegatarian food. There is a wide variety to choose from including South Indian, North Indian, Pizzas, etc and they are all good. A few steps up from the popular and crowded Hasty tasty, this place is slow and tasty.

We tried mexican and american menus. The children loved it and we liked the service. The food was tasty and freshly prepared right under your nose

This place almost seems to be trying to achieve average. The food was OK, the price was OK and the staff were OK. They really seem to be coasting on their lonely planet review.

Located at the end of Mall Road & is a wonderful place to eat. Their food was absolutely amazing, right from the pizzas to the burgers to the Sizzlers.

A lesson learnt hard, hope other's don't have to learn the same way. We were threatened by owners son on refusing to pay for order we cancelled. We... More
