Nirvana Kitchen Bistro Grille & Bar Kharadi, Pune

Quite decent but an expensive option in Kharadi !

Rating – 3.5/5

To start with, this is a rather expensive dining option and the food quality is above average but nothing outstanding except my favourite dish.

Following is what I tried and the only reason I went there was a Groupon I purchased.

Tandoori chicken 2/5, the marinade was good but the chicken had a bit of a subtle foul smell and was an absolute deal breaker for me.

Tambdi Chicken – 4/5, I asked them to prepare this spicy and boy it was damn spicy!! Chicken was tender and no foul smell thankfully.

In the main course we tried :

Murgh Kadhai 3/5, this was an alright gravy dish with ample spices.

Mutton Dum Biryani 4.5/5, this was an absolute surprise and a pleasant one too. It seemed like an authentic version of Hyderabadi Biryani and I loved it.

Dessert:

Chocolate Eggplant Lasagna 4/5, this is something very unique to this place and a must have if you happen to visit Nirvana.

Ambience was good.

Service was a little strange to say the least as on couple of occasions I ordered an item and the waiter nodded and we waited for a good 10 minutes or so and when I enquired they acted as if I never placed the order.

It would not be an understatement to say that they have to improve manifolds in the area of customer service and thereby improve the overall dining experience.
