Chilli Garlic noodles and mug maggi were good. It's a decent place for people who hangout for hookah I would say.
The food is good. They serve the best butter chicken around Christ University Campus. The seating isn’t that comfortable, at the restaurant is open, it is quite warm to dine during summer.
Had the amazing masala papad here and watching a match on big screen with your friends is a bliss. Even loved the sofas and sitting there.
Place is kinda open. Ambience should be improved. Looks very local specially floors n all. Serves hookah. Food was good. Had pasta and prawn tandoor. Service is good.
I loved one of their papad which contained cheese and other stuff.
Staff was good.
Salad was also good enough.
Located opposite to forum koramangala mall
The ambiance is quite good, you have multiple sitting facilities you can choose based on your preference and also hookah is severed here
Cumming to the food you have plenty of options to choose and we tried kurkuri rumali, sandwhich, panner labadar, kolapuri, and breads and must say food is quite good in terms of taste n quantity.
Kurkuri rumali is a must try dish here
Overall a good place to hangout with a bunch of friends 😬
This is a cute place with a good ambience and comfortable seating. Spacious enough and has plants and saplings that adds charm to the space. The place is smoking friendly and has hookah too. Coming to food, I ordered Kurkuri rumali which was a first time for me. Loved it. Really crunchy with perfect sauces and cheese spread over the crisp rumali with finely chopped tomatoes, onions and coriander. Second was Crema Bianca which is basically white sauce pasta. Liked it too. Ambience: 4/5
Food: 4/5
Price: 4/5
Definitely going again for a quick catch up with friends.
Environment was amazing, real enjoyable.
*Recommended* Alfredo pasta (Chicken white sauce pasta) was the best. We also had a good chop suey you can ask them to serve the noodles & gravy separately. Moreover the ambience and music was super. I wish I could have copied their playlist.
After a lot of search on zomato, we decided to visit this place since we could use zomato gold, also their review were great.
Ambience: Perfect place for young crowd, families wont really prefer coz of music, smell of hookah and noise.
Food: we tried their pesto pasta and Schezwan noodle i loved how the pasta was creamy and had appropriate pesto, whereas noodles were mildly spicy and yummy.
My colleagues tried non veg, they appreciated the main course since it was upto mark.
I had ordered nachos, pasta, dahi ke kebab, barbeque pizza and my favourite was dahi ke kebab. The dips served with it had an amazing presentation and the taste was a treat to taste buds. The nachos was super cheesy. Food quantity was good. In drinks I ordered vanilla frappe and mango mocktail. It is located opposite to forum Koramangala and attracts young crowd.Food is delicious and staff is also good. Good place to chill. It also has live music and fooseball. The ambience is also attractive and lil different from normal.
Good place to chill with your pals. Quality of food is good. Loved the milkshakes. Also you can play games and make it more interesting!
Our experience was great. The food was delicious. We'll surely come back. Recommended place if you want to have good food without breaking the bank.
Want a place with nice music and beautiful ambiance that sets you in the right mood??
Well, Pin Me Down is the best place to visit. It has a beautiful ambience with helpful staff. Service can be improved.

Really amazing food quality and taste. Decent ambience, one of the best places around Madiwala area. Cost effective and perfect portion size served. The ordering and supply of food could be better. Open kitchen could be little annoying due to smoke at times.
Nice happening place we find pin me down........
Amazing mouth smashing north Indian cuisine
We love this place as good quality food nice ambience n coolers too ........ must visit place
It's so near to Kormangala Forum Mall, we ordered Tandoori Paneer Pizza and Barbeque Cheese Pizza they both were soo terrific never had such an amazing thin crust pizza in my life, must try guys.
P.S. they don't serve alcohol but Hookah lovers go for it.
The service was too good , if u visit this place you must try north Indian food for sure , I mean roti n sabzi and rates are moderate . Zomato gold is also applicable
One of the greatest hookah place. The food here is amazing, hara bhara kabab is a must... The sauce they serve is exsiquite. I would recommend a glass of chilly guava as well.
It's a very beautiful place, love the ambience and decor, the food is beautiful, costing is perfect, the quality and quantity is amazing, doesn't serve alcohol but mocktails are a beaut. A must visit for a classy night out.
Amazing Ambience, great food with good qty. Though service charge is 10% fix but it's worth the amount to pay.. very nice & humble staff, quick service.
It's a very nice place. Nice crowd.
Food was tasty 😋 and delicious. No alcohol.
Service was fast. Nice Bollywood music. Dancer will love this place
Yes, I can say that ambience is good
Good for clicking pictures
I had pazta and paneer tikka just to check
Pazta was 3.5/5
Paneer tikka 4/5
Must visit for once
Zomato Gold: Yes, on food
Additional: Foosball table (woohooooooo!!!)
Food:
1. Kolkata style chicken chowmein
2. Schezuan veg fried rice
3. Lollipop chicken
4. Frutti di mare (a seafood pasta)
No. Of people: 4
The starter and Chinese items were suuuper spicy (which I, personally, LOVED). So fair warning, make sure to check the spiciness of the food with your waiter when ordering. All their food was tasty and the mains were very generous in quantity- we ordered one dish each, and had to ask for most of the food to be parcelled. With Gold, this place is definitely a must-return for me and totally worth the price.
This place has it’s own rustic charm to it.
Not only the food here is good but people come here to Enjoy the match too.
They have a huge screen to cheer for your favorite teams coupled with your favourite drinks.
It’s a fun place to be. A place to spend nice evening. If you want something classy then probably this is not for you. But if you up for foosball match and good music, it’s a go to.
This place is well known for their sheesha and the seating and their food and their starters ha ha h ah i loved the whole gambit of things that they offer on the platter.
I recommend this place to everyone planning to go with their friends in a huge group as I said it does guarantee a fun filled time.
Good Food. Good Ambience. Good Music. Friendly Staff. And not expensive at all. I would love to visit this place again. Do try their Kurkuri Roomali Roti and Patiala Chicken.
I had a great time here. The hookah was perfect, have many combos. I went for a hookah with coke and my all time favourite Maggie.
I also had Harre Bhare Kebab which was really good in taste especially the sauces given with it. I didn’t like the playing though. Then I had Chowmein - Kolkata style tawa noodles, too spicy 🌶 but full of taste.
They have a seating upstairs where hookah is served which is basically open for smoking and the other is downstairs which is like a fine dining.
A must try if you want to go light on your pocket.
This place is worth a try. The service was good.
We tried chicken patiala ( out of menu dish) and it great in taste, pahadi murg was a good starter option.
A casual ambience, you can come with your friends and enjoy hukka as well.
Good for casual hang out with friends.
They only offer hookah and food.
No beer and alcoholic drinks.
Although they offer a drink which tastes like beer but it's alcohol free, Some coolsberg i guess.
We were a bunch of colleagues who landed at this place for lunch. The service was quick and good . The stand out items were papad ki churi and pindi chole. This place has a good ambience and has an interesting them. The cowboy hats on the walls made for some fun pictures in the group. Must try once
Pin me down will forever remain in my memory for introducing me to one of the most delicious and imaginative Indian starters I've tried- Kurkure Roomali.
Served with a variety of dips, this dish is a roomali roti baked over a curved surface. It's the ultimate light and crispy chips and dip combination which preserves an Indian flavour while having the texture of a nacho. Also tried the standard naan and mushroom masala which was good.
The space has high ceilings and is decorated in a quirky manner with bright walls and potted plants giving it colour. This makes it a great place to visit in the day as well.
Ambience is not that great, could have been a lot better. We ordered chilli prawns, mushroom pasta and DBC shake, all tasted great.
Giving four stars as was not happy with the ambience
Restaurant has 2 wheeler parking space. Ground floor has AC service hall, rooftop restaurant serves as a smoking zone too.
Variety of seating arrangement can be found here. They serve both veg and non-veg dishes.
Been here for lunch, quite spacious rooftop restaurant. Food was delicious. Mocktail was good. Unlocked Zomato gold.
I would recommend this place for anyone who's looking for a decent restaurant nearby Christ College.
Good ambience, decent food. A little too dark but goes well with the interior design. Variety of food is less but the ones they have are good.
My experience here was just WOW!!!
Live music on a sunday, outstanding night it was. Live band, 80s-90s-2000s music, music on demand- thankyou for playing the song demanded. The low seating added to more comfort with the surrounding and i think Hookah was much better from other places- good competition haan!!
Staffs were friendly, they were on point and providing suggestions too!!! That’s was a great help!
And yeah the place is pocket friendly, no doubt. Food is yummy too!! Must a visit place.
The Special Nan Papad is awesome. Good Music with Chill ambiance. Nice Place to hang out with 20+ age group.. College guys will feel good at this one.
A nice place to Chill out with the family or even with friends.... You have Indian Chinese and continental.... They do not serve spirits.... The Indian food items specially Biryani quantity is quite large so Pls check before ordering.. Order as per your party size.... A good experience... Thank you PIN ME DOWN...

This place has an upper seating where they serve hukka and drinks and a seating below where it's only food and mocktails.
I preferred to sit downstairs as I was not planning on drinking.
The food here is lovely I would say.
We ordered Hara bhara kabab and paneer lababdar with laccha parathas
The Hara bhara kabab were just too good. I didn't like the plating though but the taste was really good. I liked the side sauces provided with it.
Paneer lababdar was again too good!! Super tasty and went so well with those lovely parathas that they gave! Total Paisa vasool.
I'm reducing one point in the rating because of the service. I don't blame the staff because during that crowded time, only 2 people were doing all the work, from taking the order to serving the order to cleaning the table. It was so difficult to ask those guys for something as they were continuously just running around. Please hire more staff.
Absolutely amazing food and very feel-good place. Must try the Chicken Patiala (it's not on the menu yet) and Chilli Prawns
They could better with the service and waiting time though.
Food was good with perfect combos one always want. Good to place to visit with friends.
Service provided was up to the mark.
Visit in evening vibe of the place is awesome.
Awesome! This place a very lovely ambience. Whether you are a group of friends looking out for some hookah or delicious food or a couple, this place has a great ambience for you. The food is lip smacking and quantity is also very good.
Food is really good, even the portion of birayani is for 2-3. Ambiance is really nice with the annoying traffic noise but it's okay, what we expect in Bangalore.
I did not used hookah.
Cleanliness 3/5. I saw rats. Loads of them after I ate. This needs to be dealt with. It's not safe.
Ambience 4/5
Service 4/5
Food 4.9/5
Music 4/5
The North Indian food here is simply amazing. The peri peri fries are literally the best I’ve ever had, and the Blush over ice mocktail is very refreshing and amazing.
Covered rooftop with good seating. The music is nice and the slow wind is a major plus in the ambience. Sports screenings, karaoke nights... overall it's nice place to meet up and hangout with friends
Nice place with nice vibes. Cosy ambience and helpful staffs plus the chef over there is the main man. When in doubt contact him and you can take his advice on food. Trust me his choices are fabulous. Must Visit!
Must visit the cafe. If you wanna taste something new and delicious than this is the best cafe i found in bengaluru. Specially bbq paneer pizza its super tatsy.
One of the best cafes u can find in banglore. The cheif has surely got some magic in his hands.
Special recommendated dish:- fuesli salad which needs to be try
![Zomato]( "Recensione")
Had ordered quite a few things on the managers recommendations. All the items ordered were really nice and had quite good flavour to it. The paneer tikka was not that great, it was very dry and the paneer was quite rubbery. The chilly paneer was really nice. It was juicy and had good spice to it. The nachos were also really nice. I guess the chips were also made by them and they did not use the packed chips which made the nachos taste so much crispier and better. The cheese sause was also really nice and the veggies went well. The pizza was also really nice. I don't know why, but it kinda tasted different than normal but was really nice and so was the egg burger. Last but not the least the chow mein was also really nice. Bit bland and could have been made better. But overall everything was really nice. The pricing was also low and the quantity was good. The service was also decent but the place has very less staff atleast at the time when I went so was a lil slow. The ambience was also decent and nothing over the top. Overall the food was really nice and had an amazing time and would love to come back and try new and different stuff.

We were group of 10 people visited the place for some good North Indian food. We ordered Naan and butter chicken with kebabs and this is one of the places in Bangalore who serves good North Indian food. Loved the ambience,the polite and in time service. A good place to visit.
Good place in Koramangala, Pizzas were really good.
Service time could have been improved, except that this is the place to be visited.
Note: Either Gold or Dineout cash is accepted but not both
It's quite a big place away from the hustle of Koramangala restaurant chains. Ambience was decent and the atmosphere was also pretty relaxing. In our case a few dishes didn't meet our expectations, eg. Veg Manchurian Apart from this every was pretty organised. They also have foosball table and you can definitely help yourself in burning some fat after having their delicious food.
Great place to hangout with friends.
Paradise for sports fan as they play match on big screen .
Delicious food and very fast service.
Highly recommended.

Pin Me Down is one of the places that one should not judge by the cover. From the outside it seems like an average cafe, but once you take the leap of faith the food in Pin Me Down will pin you down!
We started with Chinese Bhel and what seems to be a masala papad. The portion sizes were as expected but the taste definitely stood out! I especially loved the ‘Masala Papad’. It was all sorts of delight! We then moved on to order a FarmVille pizza. The pizza was a little smaller that one would expect but the taste was quite amazing. The unexpected touch of broccoli on pizza was refreshing!
Overall I think food is Pin Me Down’s strong suite. The ambience was just above average. I mean the staff is courteous but they don’t make you feel special. The restaurant should definitely consider changing the decor of the place. It looks super gloomy and a lot of people may get turned down by that.
In summary, if you want amazing food with unique twists this is a place you must try. If you wish to impress your date however I wouldn’t recommend this place.

The place has really good ambience and food. I went here sometime back and we had great time there. Only issue was the service. The food arrived 20 mins after ordering.
A must visit in Koramangala. Centrally located, and really amazing food. Love the ambience, it is well neon themed, the decor is chic and the sitting is indoor-outdoor.
Food is also really tasty, ans the portions are big as well. Do try their sizzlers, sloppy joe, English breakfast and coolers.
Very budget friendly, visited with my friends and they also appreciate the quality and the price.
Appreciate the freshness of the ingredients 💚
The sitting is comfortable, all safety precautions were taken care of.
From quick bite to sandwiches to burgers to sizzlers .
This cozy cafe dragged all my attention and is so comfortable to hangout .
Loved the spacious and sitting arrangement.
Baked bean burger is a must try ,crispy interesting filling
There are numerous options in sandwiches and burgers .
Visit and you'll get hooked .

Amazing hookah place!
If your looking for a well ventilated place with amazing food and potent hookahs you must give this place a visit .
Me and friends dropped by on a sunday evening for some hookah and food
The ambience is made up of two floors the ground floor being a cafe and the first floor being smoking zone.
Loved the ambience on the first floor it was like a shack .
Also there was a love music playing in the background
In hookahs we tried the brain freezer. Awesome hookahs i must say
In the food category we are greeted with the complimentary kurkuri rumali roti which was basically a thin crispy rumali roti topped with onions,tomatoes,coriander and some white sauce along with tangy spices. Im coming back just for this dish .
The guava jack is a note worthy mocktail out here
I was in love with the food here very nicely done
I would recommend the
1) prawn quesadillas
2)paneer tikka
3) chicken lollypop in schezwan sauce
4) chicken patiala with kulcha
Lovely food indeed in desserts their chocolate brownie looks good and tastes nice dense fudgy and chocolatey..
Definitely visiting back again...!!

Pin me down is located very close to Forum Mall, Koramanagla and has a very good ambiance and decor. Its a 2 storied restaurant and one can pick either the air conditioned ground floor or the 1st floor which isn't air conditioned. A yellow coloured theme is all you can see from outside and its beautifully done. The menu was curated by Chef Akshay and the presentation of all the dishes were top class!
Visited this place on Sunday afternoon and ordered these dishes -
Mocktails
- Guava jack is a guava based juice with chilli powder on the glass rim and is very tangy!
- Mango Milkshake was one of the best I've had and its a must try.
- Oreo Milkshae
Starters
- Kurkuri Roomali
A huge roomali roti sized Khakra with fresh vegetables, chilli powder and salt to it was tangy and delicious
- Papdi chaat
Tomatoes, onions and potatoes along with a papdi and perfect amount of spices is all that takes for the perfect chat :)
- Ratatouille tart
A crunchy tart filled with various vegetables
- Bhel coated onion rings
Deep fried onion rings coated with masala bhel was a unique dish here and must say that it was quite hard and tasted decent.
- Aloo tikki
Aloo tikki with beetroot sauce along with a sprout salad. Aloo tikki was bland and there wasn't much spice in the dish.
- Daal papad
Spicy daal makhani with papad and garlic sauce.
- Tandoori broccoli
Mains
-Spaghetti Aglio Olio
-Farmhouse Pizza
Deserts
-Magai paan ice cream along with caramel popcorn

This cafe with restuarant is a two floor property with the first floor offering Sheesha and Cafe like ambiance. The ground floor has a restaurant feel for families. Good food will pin you down. A clear heads down for the mocktails here, but the shikanji is exceptional.
The sheesha here was really good.
Coming to the food,
Appetizers
Kurkure Rumali: Started with this amazing Papad, smeared with a spicy red chilli cutney, onions, whipped cream and tomatoes.
Onion Rings: Which was called as Bhel Coated Onion rings, where onion was dipped in flour and made as rings, Bhel or puffed rice coated with masala and puffed rice.
Peri peri Mayo: Peri peri with Mayo on a bread!! Isn't it wonderful.
Naanza: this is an innovation, pizza on a Naan
Panner Stuffed baked Naan: Naan and Panner stuffing is something interesting.
Aloo tikki, Moong Masala, beet Yoghurt: Aloo tikki which was tasty here, moong masala was added here as a base with Beetroot and Yoghurt. This is one the most innovative dish ever had.
Chilli Cheese Toast
Chicken 65: This is not a typical one, worth a try.
Mutton Pizza: Slow cooked mutton for 8 hours with a herb which soothes the pizza. Man!! This is the best pizza.
Chicken Pizza: Shredded chicken was the topping here.
Tomato aur Pudina Shorba: Woah!! This is the best. One of the best shorbas man!! I downed two glasses of it.
Main Course
Smoked Chicken Kofta with Makhan: Smoked Chicken made into a Kofta and the curry with Makhan or Butter!! Typical rich Punjabi curry.
Lacha Naan: Pudina flavoured Lacha naan, this man has gone beyond his mind for innovation
Dal Papad: Great presentation was the first thing noticed. Good dal with papad.
Dessert
Gud Chawal ki kheer: Kheer to kill you with the taste. It's so good
Hajar ke halwa: Humble carrot halwa
Had a great time here.
Bon Appetit,

Want to hang out with your friends at a cool and lively place??
Want to impress your date by taking her to wonderful nature loving sitting space??
Or do you want to try some innovative dishes with stunning presentation ??
I think your search ends here!!
This gorgeous cafe has 2 floors with 1st as rooftop sitting area. Ground floor sitting is has enchanting lighting and cute cushions with quirky quotes to make you laugh. Went for a lunch here with a bunch of friends and as the weather was perfect we sat down in rooftop area. The staff is humble and friendly. Coming to the food I found everything delicious.
Want some suggestions on what to have here ?? Here you go :
Beverages :
*Nutty Oreo Shake : Always my favourite and loved the taste here too. Perfectly sweetened and rich Oreo flavour.
*Virgin Margarita : This was a mixture of lime and orange juice. Very refreshing and light for your stomach.
Starters :
*Rumali kurkure : It was named rumali but I felt it more to be like khakra with cheese and tomatoes and onions on top. It was like a big bowl shape roti. Absolutely delicious .
*Bhel coated onion rings : I tried this dish for the first time and loved it. Perfect for munching while having some drink. It is served with fresh peri peri mayo.
*Naanza : It was an innovative dish being a combination of pizza and naan. It was basically paneer stuffed baked naan. Delightful and a must try for all paneer lovers.
*Aloo tikki moong masala : All the health conscious people , this is your dish. It was yummy, flavourful and healthy.
* Barbeque Paneer Pizza : It was a thin crust pizza with topping of paneer and capsicum. Loved the dish but felt the quantity to be less.
Main Course :
*Daal Papad : Daal taste was amazing. Trust me I ate all of it until last spoon. For all vegetarians its a must try dish.
*Paneer tikka masala with laccha pudina naan : the gravy was thick and a bit sweet as expected. The paneer was soft and went well with naan.
Desserts :
*Gud chawal ki kheer : I am basically a kheer lover so my opinion might be biased. But I loved this delicious Indian dessert.
*Caramel Popcorn : Caramelized popcorn served with vanilla ice cream. Both balanced their flavours and taste amazing.
Done with the review..now go and give this place a try.

Perfect location with a large seating area, good food with nicely done decor and to top it all, serves Hookah!
Located right opposite to the Forum mall in Koramangala
this place has quite a lot to offer. Recently visited this place for a Sunday lunch. The restaurant has two floors, ground floor is air conditioned and suitable for family whereas the first floor is open and serves hookah. The interior gives you a classic American rustic country feel and has a various seating option.
Food we ordered: -
Appetizers:
Kurkuri Roomali- Thin crispy roomali roti topped with onion,tomatoes,coriander,yoghurt and desi spices. Light and flavorful and very unique, this is a must try.
Papdi chaat- fresh tangy and tasted decent.
Bhel coated onion rings- very appealing and something new but tasted average as the onion inside lacked seasoning. A little tweak needed.
Ratatouille Tarts- Savoury tarts that went well with the drinks and hookah.
Aloo tikki, kosambari with beetroot yoghurt- plating was amazing although taste did not live up to it.
Dal papad- Something you rarely find under appetizers. Brilliant addition in the menu by the Chef, true Rajasthani flavors served in traditional style. A must have!
Main Course:
Tandoori Phool- marinated broccoli cooked in tandoor. The taste was a little bland and needed seasoning.
Fish tikka- soft and well marinated.
Spaghetti Aglio Olio- Pasta was made in house and had a good texture. Subtle garlicy flavor with herbs tasted good but a sauce along with it could have elevated the taste.
Chicken Bolognaise Pizza & Farmhouse Pizza- tasted decent and nothing special.
Khada Seena- Chicken breast with generous amount of stuffing of minced chicken and dry fruits with a light marinate. Quite a portion with good flavors.
Desserts:
Maghai Pan ice-cream- Impressive.
Moong Dal halwa crumble with Gajar halwa- Top pick for me. Moong dal had less ghee and less on sweet but had an amazing flavor and texture. Gajar halwa was equally good and when eaten along with
the moong dal halwa, taste was mesmerizing. The desserts marked a perfect ending to the meal with bang on flavors.
Each dish had a stunning presentation, a word of appreciation for that goes to the Chef.
Staff was quick on the service and ambience was quite chilled-out.
Some dishes we had needed improvement here and there but overall this place is sure to impress the nearby college crowd and weekend shopaholics.
We've ordered for Tandoori full & Murgh Biryani.
Tandoori meat was tender and really juicy.
Murgh Biryani taste was good,but it lacks the texture.
Ambience was decent.
The staff was courteous.
Overall it's a decent place to have food.
But the prices are high.
A place to come and enjoy hookah with a group on a quite evening with loads of food options to choose from. Kurkuri Roomali is a must have dish. Other decent dishes are fish tikka, chicken breast. Really liked the way dishes are presented. Have hookah, feel high and enjoy the dishes presented

We always look for different restaurants with unique offerings to satisfy our taste buds n we pinned down this place to take care of our gastronomical desires. It has two completely different ambience where the ground floor one is a closed n a beautiful set up. The second one first floor with one side open and bar like feel. Their menu is quite impressive as they offer tons of stuff. We ordered:
- Mango n mint based mocktail (In the summer)- Refreshing, yummy and quite filling
- Oreo chocolate nut shake- again quite filling, almost close to perfect
- Kurkure roomali roti- looks amazing, hogworthy and just perfect
- Bhel onion rings- well conceptualized, crunchy, too good
aloo tikki- an interesting twist to aloo tikki which is even difficult to imagine, good one
- Chili cheese toast- looks very catchy n different, taste wise it was fine
- Naanza- great concoction of planner naan and pizza, spicy n couldn't have been better
- Tomato n mint Shorba- it was nice n hot. Wish it was little thicker n served with garlic bread
- Daal papad- simple but one of the best thing, mind-boggling.
- Lachha naan- seems to be their USP, again one of the best they have.
- Oops I dropped my popcorn- Unique, very different, yummm
Gud chawal kheer - Better than average
Lastly, coming their service I feel they need to stay competitive in this area. Their staff needs to be well trained and should be completely aware of their offerings. Also, they should be presentable and make a positive impact on the customer. Overall, a nice hang out place for your family as well as your friends!!!

This place has a very lively and colorful ambience. It has a seating in ground floor which is for non smoking crowd. The upstairs are for hookah, which has comfy sofa and table seatings. Only problem is, they have washrooms only at ground floor, so if you are sitting upstairs you have to go down everytime you need to use restroom.
In order to welcome, they give Kurkuri Roomali & Guava punch as complimentary item. Kurkuri Roomali is really delicious and an innovative item I tried as far.
Their hookahs are normal but has multiple flavours, so you can give it a try. I tired their brain freezer, it was strong but most of the time it was chocking.
In starters, I loved their Chicken Lollipops-my favorite here. They have one dish named Khara Seena, which is chicken breasts cooked till perfection. From vegetarian section, their Panner Tikka are really delicious and quantity is very sufficient for a gang of four. They had another item named Bread Kanda Batata, it looked like a burger but it was way too oily for me.
From main course, you can blindly order their Murgh Patiala, if you like egg and chicken in same dish. I loved this with their Garlic Kulchas.
For me most of the times, desserts ends with delicious chocolate brownie and ice cream. I had it here as well and it was good. It can be a good choice to end your meal here.
Recommendations : Chicken Lollipops, Paneer Tikka, Murgh Patiala.

Good food - check
Amazing ambience - check
Polite servers - check
Happening music - check.
Ticked all the boxes on my list. Pin me down has wowed me.
Was here on a beautiful afternoon with my foodie friends.
We ate alot and had alot of fun too.
We began with tasting the mocktails. My personal favorite was the guava jack and the passion fruit milkshake.
They were both tasty and smooth to have. The Virgin mojito was also a refreshing drink to start with.
We then ordered some great food.
In the seafood starters I had the chilli prawns and fish Tikka. Prawns were simply amazing and customized according to our spice taste. Fish Tikka was decent too.
My personal favorite was BBQ paneer and BBQ chicken wings. They were literally finger licking good !
They best thing on the table through out our meal was the masala rumali roti. We couldn't stop biting into it. It's a must when you are at pin me down.
We also had the garlic noodles and veg Manchurian gravy. Both were on point flavours.
Then we had the pan desserts. Which were beautifully presented and tasted amazing.
This place is here to stay. Head to pin me down, to try some new dishes and some classic ones too.
PS - this place serves hukka too.

A relatively new cafe in the city promises a really laid back experience while having some delicious dishes.
The cafe has two parts, the ground floor mainly dedicated to food, the top floor being a hookah cafe with live music and Dj options.
A good number of options are available for hookah, and with a relaxed seating options, this is an ideal place to chill out.
Menu:-
Drinks:
Virgin Mojito
Starters:
Kurkuri Roti - The most innovative thing I have tasted lately, Masala Papad but using a Rumali roti which is made crisp. The topping wasn't very heavy which makes it taste better.
Chat Papdi
Dal Papad
Nachos
Mini Bunny Chow
Veg Home Made Spaghetti
Order any starter from them, it goes really well with the hookah, the nachos and spaghetti were all handmade which made it taste really delicious.
Its quick food, perfect for a cafe and hookah bar.
Main Course:
Fish Tikka
Veg Butter garlic noodles
Prawn pasta alfredo sauce
Chilli Prawns
The main course needs a little improvement, the fish was marinated well but the outer coating was left uncooked, a little more of cooking on it would have made it better.
The chilli prawns were really spicy and tasty, worth a try.
Desserts:
Pan Ice-cream
A lot more options among the desserts would be needed, the pan ice-cream satisfies just a small part of your dessert needs.
Pin me down is a definite tryout, the hookah combinations are really good, great for chilling out and having some real good starters.
A really nice space with an aesthetic ambiance and a delicious menu. I have got a chance to try out Veg Sizzler, Peanut Butter Banana Sandwich & Mumbai Cheese Masala toast. They are really delicious.
Also, from the drinks I tried, Mango Basil Mojito, Lime Mint and Chocolate Shake and from the three Lime Mint was the best, must-try.
Note: Pin me down is heaven for Honey-lovers. In a major set of their dishes, as a sweetening agent, they put honey to it.
Great spot for your weekends to spend with your family and friends.
Space is quite huge.. Nice music keeps going in the background.. Pro kabbadi was being project on a big screen.. And the food was just great. It would cost about 700-800 for two and they have zomato gold. It's worth for a visit!

Ambience is beautiful. There were plants everywhere and I loved it. It instantly brings in a lot of positive energy. Lots of light and the high ceiling-ed layout compliments the ambience perfectly. And then you have the decor, which is a clear reflection of the wild, wild west. I personally loved the checkered floors with beautiful, bright yellow tiles.
The Chocolate Banana Almond smoothie was so addictive.
For appetizers we tried the Bhel coated Onion Rings. I was impressed with the concept and curation and even liked it...the only thing missing was the actual flavor of the onion. The Bhel overpowered it and perhaps requires a second visit. Next was the Papdi Chat, again, beautifully put together, taste was above average but not out of this world.
Ratatouille Tarts could have had more flavor. The tart broke a little too easily. I'm an eggplant lover so sort of can't do away with this one. Aloo Tikki with Kosambri and Beet Yoghurt - I liked the yoghurt quiet a bit. The Tikki needs to be more chatpata. I personally never liked Kosambri but it was really well made.
Onto the stuff that had me in the first bite. Dal Papad. What a fabulous dish! The Dal was lip smacking, perfect in every way. The Lehsun ki Chutney was phenomenal. The Tandoori Phool isn't something I'll order again. Spaghetti AOP was really good in taste but about 10% overcooked for my liking. The Farmhouse Pizza was mediocre.
Desserts were the highlight. The Magai Pan Ice cream was put together beautifully with Caramel Popcorn, all freshly made. The pops had perfect crunch and the caramel had perfect balance. The one that topped my pick was the Moong Dal Crumble and Gajar Halwa Quenelle. The crumble was delicious and full of flavor. Quenelles were made beautifully. The best part was the sweet level was subtle and just right.
The service was prompt and commendable.

I've been here 3 times and finally thought of reviewing - considering the fact that they now accept Zomato gold membership ;)
Love their seating arrangement which gives a pretty relaxed feeling - especially in the top floor. Service has always been pretty good. Regarding ambience, it's usually been a bit on the lower side except for any major sporting event - as they've a huge screen, the place lights up during such occasions.
Food has been great - especially the tandoor items. Do try the fish tikka , the chutney provided really brings the best out of it ! Chinese food is worth mentioning too. We did try the caramel ice-cream dessert. Which was the only disappointing meal so far. Overall a must try restaurant especially during a major sporting event :D

Tip: They do add a hefty 10% service charge. IMO that's quite high and we can always request them to decrease it.

Pin Me Down or just stop me from enjoying superb food and Hookah in this God-Loving Place.
Located just opposite Prestige Acropolis on the road that connects you to Tavarekere,this place foodies is run by some seriously passionate people who know the art of preparing some lip-smacking food and serving one of the top 5 the hookahs in town.
The place spread over 2 floors just caters to the mood swings of the patrons. The lower one with good music,a TV,AC without hookah,just to catch up on conversations and the first floor with live music,hookah and fun.
The place can accommodate around 150-160 pax across 2 floors and the ambience puts you at ease the moment you step in here.
The Service is amazingly fast for the crowds they handle.Both the staff and chef believe in one thing in common-keep the patrons happy and succeed in it too.
The Welcome drink -Guava Jack with kurkuri Roomali-refreshing but bit too spicy
The Starters
1.Bread Kanda Batata- one of the best starters to try,perfect
2.Fish Tikka-done well but a was bit high on the salt
3.Chicken Lollipop - THE BEST have tried of late and the chef has got it BANG ON- be it the taste,tenderness of chicken,spices and presentation
4.Paneer Tikka-Veggies take note...the humble dish has been served right with marination being the key here and cooking at the right heat...too soft,a joy to eat. Must try
The Main Course
1.Murgh Patiala- OH MY FOOD,Can a dish be so tasty??Try it to believe it here..Chef -Take a bow...too good
2.Kamaal ka Kofta-a other show stopper dish
3.Kulcha( Garlic & Nigella Seeds)-Innovative yet tasty and done right
4.Papad ki Churi-Best avoid ,not to my palate
5.Lasun Ki Chutney -Good,try once
The Desserts
1.Cocoa Brownie with Icecream- the safest bet in Desserts that can never disappoint you or go wrong. The Dessert here lives up to it expectation and a MUST TRY.
