Deolali Bar & Restaurant

This chic contemporary setting with bare brick walls and exposed beams is reminiscent of a laidback English club or even a charming bistro. But Deolali never ceases to surprise patrons, whether it is with the classy and minimal ambience or with the food, which is simply Indian.

Look out for the Punjabi kofta in the starters. The shallow fried minced lamb patties blended with fresh coriander, herbs and spices are crisp,yet melt in the mouth. For mains, the saag muchli, fish cooked in rich sauce of spinach and herbs is an unusual contender and so is nairal, a Goan dish of chicken with spring onions, coconut and spices in a creamy sauce. Cardamom infused crème brulee keeps patrons coming back for more, while traditional favourites like jalfrezi, dopiaza and kormas evoke happy and nostalgic memories. An international wine list along with a choice of beers ensures that the bar is seldom empty.
