    My experience at D'Lena was truly exceptional! The only suggestion I have is to provide a heads-up when presenting the flambéed steak, as the flames were quite close to diners. It felt like a portable heater next to my neck. That said, everything else was absolutely amazing!!!

    Loved our dinner at Bombay Club. We ordered the fish in naan leaf and scallop chettinad for appetizer. Both were delicious. For main course, we ordered railway lamb curry, halibut mapas, chicken tikka, daal makhani with naan, rotis. all dishes tasted awesome - freshly made and very authentic. The ambience is also very good. A very good Indian restaurant! Highly recommend it.

    We had a great experience. Food was excellent, ambience great. Sommelier was very nice and attentive. Service was good, only feedback is that the waiter could have checked in a few times more. Fortunately we had no issues, so it didn’t take away from the experience! Definitely recommend!
