" We had a wonderful family dinner at Dhamaal last weekend. The decor is stunning, and the menu offered exciting dishes. Although everything we ordered was good, I expected the flavors to be bolder. The highlight for us was the butter chicken, but the garlic naan was a little on the crispy side. The service was impeccable—our waiter was attentive without being intrusive. I’d recommend giving it a try if you’re in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you want a blend of traditional and modern Indian cuisine, Dhamaal is the place! The innovative dishes are beautifully presented and pack a punch in flavor. The homemade mango lassi was delightful! Though I wish they had more vegetarian options, what they serve is fresh and well-executed. Can't wait to explore more of the menu next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" We dropped by Dhamaal on a whim and couldn't believe our luck! Each dish we ordered filled us with excitement. I especially enjoyed the fusion elements they added to classic favorites, making the food unique! The service made us feel welcome, and we appreciated getting insight into the menu. Will definitely be returning! " (*Curated Review*)

" Took my family to Dhamaal and we had a great time! The food was on point. Each of us ordered different items and they were all impressive—especially the butter chicken and dal makhani. The atmosphere made it feel grand yet intimate, which we loved. Service was among the best I’ve experienced. Looking forward to returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had an excellent dinner at Dhamaal! The food was incredibly tasty—loved the fusion takes! We particularly enjoyed the crab cakes, which had a delightful kick. The setting was vibrant with a fun atmosphere too. One suggestion for future diners is that it gets a bit crowded, so reservations are helpful. Overall, a fantastic experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently had dinner with friends at Dhamaal, and I must say, it was an unforgettable evening! The food was exceptional—so many unique twists on classic Indian dishes! The jackfruit kofta was definitely a highlight. However, I felt the music was a bit loud at times, making it hard to converse. But overall, a fantastic experience I would gladly repeat. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was excited to try Dhamaal after hearing so many great reviews. While the ambiance is lovely, the food fell a bit flat for my taste. I ordered the lamb curry and found it to be decent but lacking in depth. However, my husband loved his chicken tikka masala. It may just be about personal preference regarding spices. The service was great, so I may return to try other options. " (*Curated Review*)
