the sidewalk

the best place in nashik by far. its a 24 hour multicuisine restaurant located at blvd nashik, one of the best properties in nashik. must try if youre in the city.

blvd has been like a home. the staff is super polite. the food served is mouth watering. i couldnt get enough of the activities at foundry. i watched world cup with the best snacks and company.

the buffet served at both sidewalk and panaroma is something i still think about. hahah

looking forward to visit this place again.

i visited this cafe few days back and was mesmerized by its ambiance. this is surely one of a kind property in nashik. the main thing that attracted me the most was it's ambiance. the cafe has a good modern style seating arrangement with lively atmosphere which freshens the mood. that being said, the food served here was also incredible. i had a complete lunch buffet with many cuisine options like indian, italian, pan asian, continental, oriental etc. i also had breakfast buffet which had the classic american breakfast with sausages and eggs. the only minor thing that i would like to point out is that because the cafe caters to its international clients as well, the food has just a pinch of salt less in it and lacks seasoning. but i think that's not at all an issue when it comes to top class service and brilliant food at the cafe. a special mention for the service. the service is just awesome with all the perfectly trained staff which cater to your every need.

lovely restaurant. staff is very friendly and food is absolutely delicious! blvd is well laid out across three floors, ground floor being the 24*7 cafe, a sports bar and a rooftop restaurant!

we had an amazing experience at the sidewalk during our stay at blvd. the sidewalk has a very chill yet vibrant ambience- go there with friends or grab a coffee over a meeting or head out for a family meal- the sidewalk has it all.
with a huge variety of food options, we simply loved the indian spread and the pizzas!
here are the must haves:

hazelnut coffee
pizza
bento box meal- so filling & satisfying

also, it’s perfect for a sunday brunch. absolutely loved their breads, muffins and croissants!

all in all, the sidewalk is a great option for a pocket friendly yet amazing meal.

// the sidewalk //
this is total 360 performance restaurant. from early morning breakfast to late night dinner. they serve their best 24*7.
the vibes here are just pleasant as you get the roadside view.

coming to the food i had here:

paneer tikka:
best indian veg appetizer fully marinated in spices and grilled in tandoor. that fresh cottage cheese (paneer) with crisp and smoky flavour is just amazing.

seekh kebab:
a bit dissapointment. as it was not that good as i thought. the flavours were not properly marinated and mixed up with the chicken.

chicken manchurian meal:
this is my personal favorite dish. chicken manchurian accompanied with fried rice.

butter chicken:
this was too good. creamy and not so spicy and not so sweet gravy went well with the nan and roti.

desserts-
tiramisu:
and this is the best place i'd suggest someone to have tiramisu. proper coffee flavour is indulged in every bite.
soft buttery italian cheese topped with creamy frosting.

chocolate gulabjamun:
and yeah never ending love for indian dessert specially gulabjamun. and this is more special as it's combination of chocolate+gulabjamun.
the gulabjamun was a stuffed with chocolate syrup which was at it's best.

also had breakfast which was freshly made. even the juices, bread, croissant everything here is up to the mark. their breakfast buffet is the best option where you can get plenty of choices to have .
the staff is very helpful and quick in service.

one of those rare cafes which is open round the clock, serves all meals of the day, gives out a very serene and calm vibe overall and has a wonderful outside view through glass walls. everything you want in a cafe, its available here. the seating here is cozy and comfortable, place and lighting is favourable for eating, reading while sipping on your coffee, small meetings. loved the ambience!

positives: good variety in the menu, prompt staff, all types of meals starting from breakfast, lunch till desserts and confectionery items available here, well lit place giving out a wonderful vibe.

recommended for: everyone.

some must haves:

1) paneer tikka: classic recipe. gives you complete satisfaction. is more on the tangier side.

2) lamb seekh kebab: another classic seekh kebab recipe with lamb. tasty when had with chutney.

3) butter chicken: one of the best one can have. a good combination of spicy and mildly sweeter cream.

4) breads: cheese garlic naan and lachha paratha were the highlights and must be tried.

5) desserts:
chocolate gulabjamun: normal gulabjamun, with a core of chocolate. were the best one can have.

tiramisu: beautifully presented, softish, appropriately sweet and well garnished classic pastry. must try for dessert lovers!

loved this cafe to the core and would love to visit again!

i visited nashik this week and stayed at the vern, blvd. got to try lunch and breakfast at this super amazing and aesthetic cafe. firstly this place is super pretty and has a vast menu ranging from coffee to milkshakes to italian to indian and what not! you'll definitely be spoilt for choices and trust me it's confusing to pick a few things to eat. however, i was hangry after checking in to the hotel after a 5 hour bus ride, so i went for my regular trustworthy options for food viz paneer tikka and tandoori mushroom. it arrived within 10 minutes and i must say i was highly impressed by the plating and quantity. usually hotels don't have great restaurants but at blvd you can be rest assured that you won't have to hunt for places to eat nearby especially because the food here was cost friendly and had a great quantity. i loveddddd the mushrooms and i could literally eat one entire platter alone again. we also tried cream of asparagus and mushroom soup but i definitely loved their mushroom soup more. served with breads and butter. then we tried a farmhouse pizza which was good as well. ended our lunch with a hazelnut cold coffee which was by far the best drink i've had in the longest time. insanely good. i also had a peach iced tea which tastes so fresh and amazing.

visited this place again for morning breakfast buffet and everyone looks upto this meal at hotels. happy to say i was not disappointed. there was a good variety of options including idli sambhar, usal pav, sabudana khichdi, stuffed paratha, boiled eggs, omelette, mexican potatoes, baked beans and bakery. along with coffee and tea. i loveddddd the usal pav. it was definitely my favourite especially since it wasn't over spicy but the taste was bang on. even the idli was great.

sidewalk - never had i ever thought that nashik could give me such a great experience when it came to food.
one of the best continental cafes in the city, sidewalk has set the bar for cafes really high.
my experience here was that of many emotions, i was surprised , ecstatic and satisfied beyond words.

let's start with the interiors- clean , cosy , chic and classy, the place has light coming in through the enormous glass walls so the feel is absolutely fresh and warm. the place is small and seating is less but nonetheless the staff makes a 100 % effort to make everyone comfortable.
service - the staff is friendly , suggestive and fast on their service. i dint have to wait too long for any of my meals and i did have a couple of them here from lunch to evening snacks and breakfast.
food - the chef is really good , every dish we ordered or even the buffet breakfast we had was delicious. from burgers to flatbread pizzas and smoothies all was very well done and meticulous.
i flipped on the salads , they were freshly made , the croutons on my caesar salad were crispy ,just like i like it.
also this was one of the first time i ever had a chocolate milkshake and it was yummy as hell.

let the photos speak for themselves now 😊

the sidewalk is probably one of the best continental cafes in nashik. situated in the blvd hotel, it has access to outsiders as well. the sunday brunch is absolutely gorgeous with innumerable options to choose from. they’ve curated the menu so beautifully.

they have a huge counter of salads serving seafood, chicken and even cold pasta salads, all of which tasted absolutely delicious! coming to the buffet they had several options from soups, indian cuisines, some chinese dishes and even white sauce pasta!

my favourite part was the display of desserts, they had pastries, chocolate cake and some indian sweets as well.

the food tastes absolutely delicious and you can’t miss out on the salads.

during my stay at the hotel, i also had breakfast here at the cafe! and the breakfast spread was equally beautiful. from india food like pav bhaji, idlis and paratha to croissants, muffins, baked beans and toasts they have so much to offer. they even had a separate fruits and juice section, watermelon was my favourite.

also, the croissants were extremely buttery and smelled so fresh! overall, the sidewalk was a personal favourite here at the blvd.

the side walk-

located on the ground floor of the blvd hotel.

the look is really wow as its made with the glass. the seating is on 1st floor as well. counter of it has glass fridge where they have displayed various pastries/ desserts they serve.

the restaurant has multicuisine menu. so you can order your favourite food. we decided to opt for the oriental food for our lunch.

prawns schezwan - was really nice, prawns batter fried and tossed in schezwan sauce, garlic, spring onions and few mix peppers. enjoyed the size of prawns which was served, thye were really thick. must order dish.

thai green curry with steam rice- perfect consistency of thai curry with mix of vegetables served with steam rice. we tried burnt garlic fried rice too and was really good served in a bowl.

tiramisu- loved this dessert served with impressive garnish. can say really well made and authentic in taste.

breakfast – breakfast buffet is setup in this restaurant for all the guests. the spread had missal, medu vada, idli, puri bhaji, danish pastries, herbed sausages, muffins, cereals, tea coffee, fresh juices and egg to the order. enjoyed this lavish buffet for breakfast. loved the sausages, they were sliced in diamond and then tossed in herbs.

i stayed at blvd twicely... and i loves the food over here... we ordered white sauce pasta and chicken barbeque pizza... both having superb in taste... pasta was creamy and cheesy too. coffee was good in taste too . overall value for money . there is a piano at upstairs which is melodious if you can play it .

do not forget to try their tomato shorba and burnt garlic rice. absolutely lip smacking and perfect blend of spices. highly recommended for anyone who loves spicy food.

a small plate of paneer chilli costs a bomb here rs 359 , the paneer chunks are hard to bite into along with the fact of high price . we ordered a pink pasta with instructions to make it non spicy as it was for the small kid . pasta took 30 minutes to arrive and were topped with chilli flakes ... left a bad impression.

very slow service. a burger took 45 mins to arrive. don't sit on the mezzanine, it is really hot. in all, very bad experience. if you call your place a cafe, please stick to coffee, you'll are not equipped for serving delicious food
