We all came to dine here and the place had some good food, ambiance and great service. It had all the basic pillars a restaurant needs to call themselves great. I would definitely suggest to visit this place. You could play pool and hangout with your friends. There is also a sitting area where you can sit crossed legged on the floors with tables. The view of the restaurant is also decent pointing to the greenery and the main street. The place is filled with some warm lights to give it a sense of coziness and warmth. Overall a great place. When we went, there weren't much people as the travel season was ending. But it was surely worth the visit.
