   We had done a lot of research before visiting and we were really looking forward to our meal. However, it was very average and quite bland considering it was an Indian restaurant. Nothing really stood out and we were underwhelmed by the whole experience if I’m being completely honest. They seemed like they were in a hurry to get us out as they offered us the bill after our main course without waiting to see if we wanted anything else, like additional sides or even dessert. Unfortunately, I wouldn’t recommend this restaurant based on our experience .

   Valentines Dinner at Namak was a dry and slow affair. Food of tiny portions came out very very slowly and what had originally been promised as a "bollywood theme" with live music, ended up just being a generic red-roses red-baloons decor with background music. The 5 course valentines menu was hit and miss. Some items were delicious such as the kebab and dokra. Some items were very mediocre, such as the black daal, cod, dessert. Overall not the sort of experience that we expected. Price however was reasonable.

   The ambience was amazing. Authentic Indian style decors. The staff are patient. Nice place for a date or for special occasions. Thanks to the management for arranging a cake for the anniversary.

   Went for the grand Nastha. Felt it was over hyped. The pani puri's pani was bland (no salt, not tangy), Dhokla was bit hard, halwa was having little watery taste, dosa I asked was for crispy which it wasn't, chutney was bland, sambar wasn't tasting that good, chole wasn't that great. Somewhere today wasn't the right day I think. It dint taste lik Kunal Kapur restaurant food even a bit, his Pincode quality is far far better and tastier. We all the way drove down from Dubai for the brunch but was disappointed. It wasn't worth 110 per person. The glasses were smelly and had stale egg smell. Only thing the staff was good and ambience was good.
