“ Great food and a wonderful experience, made even better by our server Jerin. He was warm, attentive, and really made us feel taken care of. His service brought the whole evening together. Highly recommend! ”
“ Ordered porotta, beef and tea.. they were great! Tasted amazing and freshly made. Porotta was crispy as well. Parzampori was not crispy, I felt. Or maybe not the right banana or it wasn't ripe enough? Not sure. Wish if the plaza would fix the potholes outside the stores as well. Over-all great experience! Recommended. ”
