" I went to Awara last month with expectations high, based on several friends' recommendations. The food was generally tasty, although the engineering of the flavors felt a bit off in some dishes. While the ambiance was delightful, with warm lighting and elegant design, service felt a tad inconsistent. My main issue was with the portion sizes, which left something to be desired for the price. Don't get me wrong, I had a decent evening, just left feeling a bit underwhelmed overall. " (*Curated Review*)

" What stands out at Awara is definitely the cocktails! I tried their innovative Zodiac cocktails and they were fabulous. My main dish, the Chicken Tikka Masala, was good but not the best I've had. The decor is beautifully modern and slightly quirky, providing a great vibe. The service was friendly but needed a little polishing, especially on busy nights. Overall, a solid spot to enjoy some uniquely flavored cocktails with decent food. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was quite eager to visit Awara as I've heard good things about their Indian dishes. Stepping in, I was taken aback by the beautiful decor that blended traditional and modern styles seamlessly. We tried the Tandoori Momos and Chicken Biryani. While the momos were delicious, the biryani left me wanting – it wasn't as flavorful as I had anticipated. Service was good, but there were times we had to wait a bit longer for our orders. Also, the portion sizes could be more generous for the price point. Overall, a decent experience with room for improvement. " (*Curated Review*)

" Flawless experience! From the moment we stepped into Awara, we were treated like royalty. The atmosphere was buzzing with excitement, and the decor was chic. We started with spicy paneer tikka, followed by the rich and creamy Butter Chicken, complemented perfectly by fluffy naan. The highlight was definitely the cocktails—creative and refreshing! Every dish was packed with authentic flavors. The service was impeccable; our server made excellent suggestions and catered to all our needs promptly. This place is a gem and I will surely return soon for another delightful meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" Awara has a lovely charge, but during my last visit, I felt the service fell short. The ambiance was nice with a modern twist, but the food was just average. The Chicken Curry could've used more seasoning, and the paneer dish I tried was forgettable. Service was a bit delayed, which made the meal feel longer than needed. Would I come back? Maybe, if others wanted to go, but I wish it was more consistent. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Awara for the first time and was quite eager to try their famed Butter Chicken and Biryani. The flavors did not disappoint! However, the service was slower than expected, which was a bit frustrating. The ambiance is chic with great decor, but the tables felt a little cramped for my liking. Portion sizes could definitely be bigger for the price point. In summary, I enjoyed my meal but do hope for improvement in service next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" To say that our experience at Awara was good would be an understatement! We ordered a variety of dishes to share— the Tandoori Chicken was excellent, and everything tasted so fresh. The decor of the restaurant is splendidly styled, creating an inviting atmosphere. Our server was friendly and checked in on us often. A very enjoyable outing, I can see us returning with family for more tasting! " (*Curated Review*)
