city cabana is a beautiful rooftop restro lounge located on the rooftop of hotel city heart, sector 17, chandigarh. the lift up the restaurant is quite flimsy and narrow but luckily it has a hidden staircase which is aesthetically admirable.
the interiors of the place are done modestly with beige and gold upholstery, cane furniture, beautiful cabanas and little pool in the center, all making up a caribbean vibe. it is perfect to enjoy the winter sun in day and chill on a summery night with the breeze on rooftop.
the menu has many god vegetarian options, the best ones being cajun potatoes, mushroom onion kebab, veg platter, spring rolls and cheese balls for starters. they serve an array of indian and chinese dishes alongwith a wide range of mocktails, cocktails and liquor at very low prices.
we had
cheese balls in garlic: this was my favorite that day. these were light and flavorful cottage cheese and veggie balls finished in a sweet, sour and spicy garlic infused sauce. it is little close to manchurian but tasted quite different and delectable.
cheese spinach roll: these were the usual spring rolls with a cheese, spinach and corn filling. it was perfectly crisp and the filling was super cheesy.
bloody marry & virgin marry: drinks are the usp of this place, priced decently low. the bloody marry was a perfect blend of vodka, tomato juice, tabasco and celery salt and so was virgin marry, sans the vodka.

a beautiful breezy day sitting in the cabanas, sipping up my favorite mocktail with good food and a lit ambiance. the food was fairly decent with some interesting options. the taste, quality & portion size were decent. their pricing is very good, especially for the drinks... averaging around ₹1200 for 2. the staff is courteous and well verse with the menu. the romantic vibes of this place make it perfect for dinner dates under the sky as well as for a hangout with your gang or simply a relaxing meal with your loved ones. surely worth a revisit.
