"Amazing is the word. Me and my wife had been to a dinner buffet, and the food varieties and quality was amazing. We opted for a outdoor seating and it was that breezy to be honest. This restaurant is located inside The Leela Palace hotel, what a food quality. They charge like 6000₹ for 2 for buffet. Great service, what a hospitality. Appreciate it. I managed to get some discount via Zomato. Do book in advance and if you have any special requests please do speak to them."
