Very impressed with the food. The popadoms were fresh and crispy, the chutneys that came with it were absolutely delicious. Then we tried the mall road dahi sev puri which were full of flavour. The kandhari panner tikka was also decent. For mains we had the butter chicken and the daal makhni. This butter chicken was very high quality compared to other indian places I've visited. The breads were perfect, the garlic naan had the right amount of seasoning and the malabar parantha was crispy on the outside and soft underneath. For dessert I recommend the dark chocolate silk cake, presented very well and hit the spot! The service was excellent. Loved the traditional decor, the chandeliers, countless paintings and statues gave off an authentic Indian vibe

Absolutely amazing tasting menu. It likely changes throughout the year but attached a picture of the menu and we got to try nearly everything on it. Can't recommend it enough for a tour of Indian cuisine. The alcohol pairings are also fantastic and a decent deal!

We visited Colonel Saab for hi-tea to celebrate our anniversary, and the experience was truly memorable. I had emailed them in advance mentioning the occasion, and they went above and beyond by arranging a beautifully presented pastry with a “Happy Anniversary” topper. The staff were also kind and courteous enough to offer to click our pictures, which made the celebration feel even more special and personal. The service was outclass — warm, attentive, and genuinely caring throughout. The food was delicious, elegantly presented, and made the hi-tea experience feel indulgent and special. Colonel Saab truly excels at hospitality and attention to detail. Highly recommended for celebrations and special occasions — we’ll definitely be returning.

I had the pleasure of dining at Colonel Saab and it was an absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming. The menu offered a great variety of dishes, all expertly prepared and bursting with flavour. But what truly made our evening memorable was the exceptional service, particularly from our waiter, Anshul. He was attentive, friendly, kind and truly went above and beyond to ensure we had a great time. His recommendations were spot-on, and he made sure every detail of our meal was perfect. It's rare to come across a waiter who is genuinely passionate about providing a top-notch dining experience. Simply the best!! Thanks to Anshul, our visit was one to remember, and we'll definitely be returning!
