It was a random day and we, a bunch of friends decided to treat ourselves. So we went to visit Exotica restaurant, Yerwada. It was such a wonderful place. The ambiance and sitting arrangement is so perfect that one can spent whole afternoon with the delicious buffet in peace.

We had startes, main course, drinks and finally had 2,3 rounds of desserts (like obviously). Its a multi-cuisine restaurant, so we tasted panjabi dishes and dal makhni as well as italian pasta, salads also.

Variety was there in starters. Lots of options were available in veg and non-veg.

It was amazing to try those laal mirch thecha (which is speciality of maharashtrian food) and pickles.

Desserts were mouth watering. Moong dal halva, chocolate pastry, Fruits, vanilla-chocolate-strawberry ice-cream, sevai kheer, cheesecake, etc.

Trust me, all of them were delicious..!

Thank you so much for such great experience, will visit soon. ☺😊💜

Must visit restaurant..!

Situated in an IT Park, one might not think of IT Parks having a beautiful restaurant like this within them but I absolutely fell in love with the ambience. The place is quite spread out too, with seating for large groups of people.

Coming to the food, I went for the A La Carté menu rather than their buffet, which as I have read in other zomato reviews, seems good. The seating for those preferring to eat the buffet and those wanting to eat try their A La Carté menu is different.

Beverages tried - Paradise and Anti-Colada. Both of them are mocktails (called anti-kocktails in their menu) and both were very tasty. Recommended.

I tried only the Shanghai Spring Roll. The quantity was really great! 3 people could easily eat from one plate and the rolls were tasty too.

Overall, a great experience. I recommend anyone who wants to dine with a great ambience and a good selection of food to try the place out. I also recommend to try the A La Carte if you're here rather than the buffet.

Been there twice and food is very nice. They have a valet parking, so don't you worry about four wheeler parking. We went there on family dinner and food there was fantastic. Though when we went there on weekend, there was a waiting queue to get the table, but it's fine during weekdays. They are roof top restaurant and it's pleasent to sit there in evening/night and enjoy the cool breeze.

Wanted to enjoy a good vegetarian buffet, though Barbeque nation is always on top when going for buffets but wanted to explore a new place from my bookmarks.
This place is not new, built of 7th floor and is rooftop. they dnt do online seat reservation but that is fine.
They have ample seating arrangement and you won’t have to wait much.
Very nice ambience, interior done superb.
We just waited for 5 minutes and got our seats.
And started with our buffet starters.

Veg Starters - served exceptionally hot and freshly baked , all served on your tables with 4 different varieties of sauces
Hariyali Paneer tikka - tandoored to perfection and was very soft - the way we like it .. 😋
Mushroom tikkas - though I am not huge mushroom lover but these ones were mind blowing
Corn seekh kebab - soft from inside and crispy outer layer - very tasty
Veg Crispy - some pieces of aloo and cauliflower with missing baby corns. As I love babycorns - their staff got me a complete portion of only crispy chilly babycorns and they were made perfectly
Veg Wontons- didn’t like much

Though we were already done after starters but our belly was still not in mood to stop , so we moved over to main course to taste some selective gravies

Main Course
Dal Burkha/makhni - unexpected that north side waali dal kaa taste. Creamy thick - the way we love our Delhi’s dal makhni
Malai kofta - just tasted 1 ball and it wasn’t bad
Paneer peshwari - gravely tasted best
Pindi Chana - didn’t like much
Didn’t taste - Palak matar, veg jalfrezi, aloo matar tariee sabzi, a mushroom item,

Pink sauce pastA - 👌🏻👌🏻
Hakka noodles - perfect
Veg Biryani - dnt know when was the last I had so delicious biryani , long rice - the fragnance - I meant it was best part of dinner to me
Steamed rice

Breads - you need to order and they will be served hot and fresh on your tables - Lachchaa parantha , butter naan rotis etc ..

Desserts 🧁
Gulab jamun - cut into 2 pieces dipped in Rabri
Jalebi
Gajar halwa
Ice creams - 3 flavours
Choco coffee mousse
Some pastries - didn’t taste


Different Types of salads and fruits were cherry on cake
Pickles
Raitas - boondi as well as mix veg
Chutneys

This is all what I remember but I know I would have been missing few times ... sorry for that

Overall it was complete steal in Rs 695 pp on Sunday including taxes, we had amazing night with our tummies overloaded

Thanks to entire team out there ...

Broccoli Aur Bhutte ke Shammi this is a must try kinda starter. The crust was crisp, flavourful and chewy. The toppings worked together beautifully. The corn and cheese were packed with flavor, and the broccoli had a great consistency and very little oil.
We also ordered garlic nan, sabji ,daal and the full main course. It was superbly delicious.
The garlic knots were little bombs of buttery, yeasty goodness, and the garlic was robust but not overpowering.
It has a wonderful ambience, a big fish tank and small fountains, bright lighting everywhere with a beautiful rooftop view of the city.
By the end of the meal we were planning our next visit.

Clearly one of the best buffet food I had in a long time. Buffets usually get monotonous, but this place has upped its game. The ambience is no doubt the best best thing about the place. The food really great, especially the salad bar. The main course was okay, but starter n the desserts are the star anyway. It's a great place for weekend brunches. And the stuff is really helpful n great

Had been for Monday dinner buffet, it was a horrible experience. In starters both veg and non-veg were bad, they were for sure going for the cheapest and easy options. They didn't even care to prepare it well , and I couldn't believe they used fresh water fish to prepare fish starter and not basa. Main course and dessert options were limited and not worth. We did enjoyed the happy hour though. I would suggest going for only Sunday brunch at this place.

A must visit place !!!

Do visit specially if you are a rooftop restro lover ❣️

Amazing ambiance, which really fresh up your mind and soul.

We went for buffet, they have pretty good options in startes both in veg and Non-veg.

I personally like the main course menu, salad is chery on the top.

Gulab Jamun was missing from desert counter which was little disappointing ! Not sure about other days.

Apart from that Gajar ka halwa and red velvet cup cake was super delicious.

Talking about overall food taste and quality, it just value for the money place.

A personal suggestion, do visit during evening or night to enjoy the rooftop feel.

We had been here for their Sunday brunch. It was good in variety but not consistent across all items in taste. The best thing about this place is their ambience. It's very refreshing and filled with greenery.

There were Indian and Chinese starters. Some were nice like the chicken Tikka, paneer hariyali, chili chicken, crispy mushroom. Others such as fish salt and pepper and grilled chicken weren't so good.
The main course was similar. The biryani was good and so was the mutton. Chicken was ok. The hummus was nice.
The gulab jamun with rabri was the pick of the desserts.

Considering the reasonable price and the ambience, it is pretty good though and worth visiting.

Awesome food quality (Finger licking) and Quantity as well. Though the pricing is on higher side, the food quality and Quantity justifies every bit of it. Nice ambience, good service. Just that they should keep the service charge optional that's also 5% so it's ok but should be at customer's discretion. Rest all is just simply great experience to go here with Family for any occasional dineout.

We went to exotica for a Sunday brunch.
The place is very crowded on Sunday but the ambiance and the feel is very cool. It also gives a nice view of the surrounding city area. There's live streaming of sports. There are live performing singers as well. Talking about the service, it's also fast and good.

I was little disappointed with the starters as there were very less options for vegetarians.
But the main course was very tasty and quite delicious.

Coming to the desserts, they are also good.
Overall, a must try place for Sunday brunch lovers.

Been there on weekday for team lunch.

Very nice ambience, spacious, has different section for ala carte and buffet (internally connected) at the rooftop.

We took buffet and almost everything had good taste.
6 to 7 starters served on table unlimited, one welcome drink.

Good options in main course and dessert too, everyone can find something good of there interest from the menu.

Service staff are quick.

I would say must visit place at least once.

As always if you want to enjoy barbecue food then BARBECUE NATION is the best place to visit 🤤. We have booked table in advance so that at last moment there should not be any issues. Visited to celebrate my wife birthday 🎂. On this branch I have visited first time. Ambiance is good , sea food was amazing and buffet was also delicious (specially mutton). Desserts have lots of options and so to choose best is difficult 🤣 so took all of them. All staff was friendly and attentive. Staff take care of their customers and also serve you what you asked for. Parking spaces is available.

Starters and Desserts were delicious. Scope for improvement in main course - especially mutton dish (lal maas) - feedback given to chef. Suggest a "Mini Buffet" comprising "Starters" and "Desserts" only. This will be popular and affordable too. Starters are so sumptuous that one doesn't really need to eat a main course. R-Deccan Mall needs revamp - we had to climb up 4 floors by staircase from Basement Parking to Restaurant since lifts and escalator were non-operational. Overall - a good dining experience.

The ambience was warm and inviting, with dim lighting and cozy seating arrangements. The live grills placed on each table added an interactive element to the dining experience, allowing us to grill our own assortment of meats, seafood, and vegetables. The servers were attentive and provided assistance whenever needed, ensuring our grilling endeavors were successful. The starters and grills were undoubtedly the highlight of the meal. The variety of marinades and flavors available catered to diverse palates, and each bite was bursting with succulent and well-marinated goodness. The vegetarian options were equally impressive, with an assortment of grilled paneer, mushrooms, and vegetables that were grilled to perfection. Moving on to the main course buffet, I was pleased to find a wide range of dishes spanning various cuisines. From traditional Indian curries and biryanis to Oriental stir-fries and noodles, there was something to please every taste bud. The flavors were well-balanced, and the dishes were consistently replenished to maintain their freshness. The dessert section at Barbeque Nation was a sweet paradise. Indulging in delectable cakes, pastries, and a variety of Indian sweets was a perfect way to end the meal on a high note. The selection of ice creams and toppings provided a refreshing and cooling touch.

Service and ambience is awesome. But due to their special festival season.They have changed the starter item a bit differently which I didn't like. Chicken fry replace by malai chicken which is not good compared to old one . Prawns has they have used other spices to match the ongoing festival as well which I did like the taste of Prawns as well. All the non veg starters were too salty in taste we have requested for a less salty but still it remains the same taste. They are best in customer satisfaction as they knew we are not liking the taste of the new menu so they have prepared the old chicken starter for us. Chicken biryani and mutton curry was tasty and delicious.Less item in dessert. Introduced a live counter where you will get veg and non veg both.I tried mutton fry but not that good. Overall Customer service -10 Food-7 Overall great place to eat with family and friends.

Value for money. It was my second visit in just 2 month of span because I can't hold myself to visit again this place but this time I visited different outlet than first one. Taste was universal 😋.... Grilled chicken was very soft, fish as usual tasty. Veg Kabab was also very tasty. I liked the prawns those were very juicy. Must try Biryani with mutton gravy, it was an ultimate combination. Shahi Tukda and Mung Dal Halwa were the showstopper of dessert. Staff was very polite, service is very good and fast. Mr. Amrendra Kumar were captain who provide and help us to find the best dish. Ice cream, Kulfi, Pani puri all were good in taste.

Complete your meals with sweets/ Icecream etc. Overall it was a great experience 👍🏻
