The cuisine here is excellent. Prawns, Lobster, Fish... amazing mouth licking preparations. The veg platter is so well selected and nicely prepared. And to sum it all, the Date pudding was out of the world.

Lovely view, brilliant ambience and service worth the praises made here. Without a fail. Peaceful place for couples or a group to enjoy LIVE music or just the nature around.

Now lets be bluntly honest ok ? Because we do NOT go to a restaurant specially in ITC Maurya just for the view and to have seating.

Yes the live show was a nice addition for a weekend but not entirely surprising. For prices as exhorbant I was not surprised but expected food better than average, sadly it was not.
Just like every place most typical delhi people visit, they see a local of that cusine and they flip their mind. Yes this restaurant Masterchef is italian. So what ?
The food was basic, not at all interesting or creatively enticing and neither did it surprise or WOW me in any way. I've had REAL italian food in Italy and to serve such food at a cost that Ottimo proposes is not just preposterous it just proves the level of dining that people mistake it to be. The food had no imagination, mediocre taste and honestly the ONLY thing that impressed me and my fiance was the wine!

Indeed if you have people who have lots of money to blow. You can go keep doing that and call it the MOST authentic place and all those other things. But if you have ever had Italian food, you will realise how shallow and delusional it is to spend on such an over priced menu.
I' went there reading reviews that people loved the service, the warmth and can't stop going there ! Load of crap, since you can pay the same amount and have that kind of world class service and warmth anywhere in such prices. Only if you have travelled.
If you are a Frog whose lived in a well offcourse you will find this the BEST italian place ever. What a pathetic joke believing reviews of people here.

I'm a fan of their surroundings and dim ambience but be prepared to use a TORCH if you want to sit outside and read their menu or anything ! Certainly not a fan of their food and certainly not worth paying 10,000 INR for two main course meals, 1 cocktail and 1 glass of wine.

Also don't be fooled by reviews saying "Large Array of options available". There are few options say 5-6 available only. And if you have craving for something specific or allergy, be sure to have your options limited to hardly any!

In the end I Feel ripped off, not at all satisfied and would rather cook Italian at home for my fiance and hope delhi people get a life and look beyond the cliche review just because it is in ITC Maurya or run by an Italian.

Dissapointed, Shocked and never going there again.

For such high price I expected very high quality of taste and look but I was very disappointed. Cocktail was very simple. Fish looked also like made at home but not in restaurant. Taste of fish was also very simple. But the biggest disappointment was pancetta: cover was so hard so I could break my teeth very easily. Tiramisu was also very heavy.

Don't remember how many times i have visited this place, i hardly review but i just can't Ignore the amazing hospitality and warmth i get evertime i visit here. Keep up the amazing work, truly the best restaurant in town.

Rooftop restaurant offering top notch food, service and views.Booking advised. We threw a party there for friends and relatives and were treated royally
