I went for dinner at finch restaurant yesterday it’s newly opened restaurant. I want to share my experience, I am a complete foodie and go for new new places every weekend.

1)Ambience was excellent and cleanliness was also good

2)Music was very light and good

3)Hospitality very nice

4)But by the end we went to eat good food which was disappointing. We are vegetarians. I ordered for orange muddle mocktail which was too tangy.Pizza was not crisp at all. Dahi kebab were stale. Pasta was worst as there was no Italian flavour in that. Portion of pasta was very small., khatti Dal tasted good but chur chur naan was very hard, it is suppose to be soft. So the quality of food needs lot of improvement.

I would give 3/5 rating because of the first 3 points which I just mentioned.
