hamsa

one of the best place for its decor and ambience

food quality is great
had to wait for a table for a while though !

well groomed staff and recommendations from the waiters were spot on !

highly recommend for agoodmeal !

lunch over dinner at hamsa so that you can do justice

hamsa, one word to describe the place would be - opulent. extremely well done interiors which makes you turn your head around 360 degrees to take in the intricate work and thoughts that have gone into the decorations. even the table setting is a bit pretentious with a large intricately carved silver-ish box holding a tiny gulab jamun being served as the welcome'drink'/'sweet'.

the tables are well spaced and spotlights flood the tables but keep in inter-table areas quite dark. difficult to signal a waiter sometimes. they don't take table reservations on weekends. it's a fcfs policy. valet parking is available and it's a not so busy street. so no parking issue.

coming to the food, it's traditional north and south indian affair. rice, roti, starters, drinks all have something unique and new to try out. we tried the spinach chat, raw banana and pomegranate cutlets, 7 daal curry, paneer is roughly ground peas paste and pulao in banana leaf. every item wasgoodin taste and rich in flavor. everything was extremely rich (as in a lot of ghee and oil) so it's a once in a while indulgent dinner place. the rotis were great too. khasta roti and aloo paratha. the drinks had the usual suspects as well as panagam and nannari sherbet as well.goodto taste.

after such an indulgent starters and mains we hardly had space for dessert but still ordered a saffron malai kulfi. we found it a bit too dense and sticky but flavourful.

all in all a great place to go for that special dinner or an indulgent night out.

this place is a gem. clearly scores over many other places despite being pure vegetarian. we dined there for lunch,goodservice and fantastic ambience. mushroom dingri kabab was the standout dish for us.

the food at hamsa was too good. the plates were really nice to see. they serve a complementary sweet before your dining. was a verygoodexperience in this place.

excellent ambience. the service offered and suggestions given by mr. srikanth is outstanding.goodquality vegetarian food. we enjoyed paneer and idiyappam biriyani.

i usually don't write any specific reviews when it comes to feedback, but this experience definitely calls for one. everything about this place was really good. i went for lunch with my family, each and every dish was just soooogoodthat there is nothing negative to say. it was a little pricey foe the quantity could be the only negative point.

and speaking of food, if you are a coffe lover who also loves ice cream, the filter coffee ice cream is a must try.

and a huge shoutout to mr.rahamath who made the whole experience really pleasant and comforting. your experience is definitely gonna have that "cherry on top" if you get to experience his service. really humble, polite and patient.

the ambience was so good. pleasant music throughout ! service was on time and quick. must try baby corn melagu perattal and lychee payasam both these are so good. tried paneer saunfiya was a little bland but a heavy portion for two. agoodveg restaurant!!!!

nice place and great service. staff was very pleasant and tookgoodcare of the guests. thanks mr. arul & mr. rahmat. subz biryani could have been a bit more spicy. kids enjoyed it very much! i would recommend this place for a quiet and tasty meal for a small group or couples.

the person in the front desk was very rude. when we entered we were greeted by the security who was polite and guided us inside. but the person in the front desk just asked us where we were going in a very rude tone. i asked him for a table for 5 and he just bluntly told us tables are not available. he didnt even let us know when we could be seated. when asked several times he just said after 2pm. he, also, did not have any courtesy to guide us into any waiting area. finally, we asked him to give us a call as soon as a table would be available but we never heard from him again. the restaurant lookedgoodand had a nice ambience but i would give it the lowest possible rating just based on how we were received at the front desk.

the ambiance wasgoodand neat, had an opportunity to try out the buffet the price was reasonable they serve only veg at 350 per plate.

the quality of the food was average, but worth the money, the ambiance and the crowd is decent.
dishes include, some veg soup(i got bracoli soup) followed by north indian thali and some noodles and fried rice along with south indian sambar and rasam, they also serve ice creams as well.

overall an average food experience, worth the money.

the ambience was good, music wasgoodbut food was just ok!

we ordered

hara kabab- spinach and fenugreek mixture. it tasted fine for my taste buds. 4 pieces in a plate.

some babycorn starter- i actually forgot the name, which according to me was the worst choice. it was a starter in a south indian style and flavours.

for main course we ordered-
dum aloo- the gravy was perfectly made. the thickness was perfect and taste was also good.

dal hamas- which is dal makhani.
it was actuallygoodand top dish from the items we ordered

breads were also soft and good.

and also not to forget the service was too too slow.

a bit on the expensive side.

food-3/5
service-3/5
vfm-2.5/5

good service and great food. mr rahamath did a verygoodjob with the service.

service was extremely slow and when questioned, the manager started lecturing us about a fine dining restaurant and how food arrives only after an hour in agoodfine dining restaurant. all other tables dining with us were agitated with the attitude and delay.
after all this, the wrong order was served and the manager trying to prove that paneer and potato are the same in the paratha !

completely different variety you would have never heard or tasted (idiyappam briyani), exotic taste,goodportion, slightly high pricy

pretty average food that’s not worth the price or the hype.

verygoodservice though.

the nutty cheese stick was decent as was the muthia chaat.

paneer was bang average
