If in a hurry, you can finish the meal and leave within an hour or if you want a relaxed dinner, you can even sit and enjoy each dish served hot till you are stuffed.

Along with the meal, we were proposed a mocktail – Maratha Empire, a guava based medium-spiced drink, which paired well with the Indian cuisine served at the restaurant.
The first appetizer, Subz Galouti Kabab, was one of the finest kababs I have ever had. A delectable treat from the land of Nawabs, traditionally made in non-veg, the Subz Galoutis were melted in the mouth. The Kababs are made by finely minced yam, dal mixed with Indian spices and cooked to perfection. Placed over a bit-sized parantha, it is best devoured with the mint chutney. Smoky flavour elevates the taste and with the first bite, your taste buds go singing. #Highly Highly Recommended!
Next was the Kandhari Paneer Tikka. The USP was the fresh ground whole spices, subtle marination and even cooking. The paneer was juicy, soft and the marination was just perfect! Utter deliciousness. Highly Recommended!
Tandoori Kumbh or Mushrooms was served next. Button mushrooms nicely battered and tandoor cooked were plated beautifully in the mini skewers. Again, a well-spiced dish – not too spicy. Mushroom lovers must try this.

One after the other, the dishes were surprising us. Next was the Punjabi Aloo and Matar cheese ki tikki. Baby potatoes were slightly tossed in spices and cooked well. Placed over the papad crush, the key is to eat them both together to feel the crunch. Matar Cheese Tikki was well made but needed that extra cheese. Who would say no to it? Haha. You have to savour the tikki with chutneys to avoid dry-eating.
We were also served veg Koobideh Kabab. More like a frankie or Kathi roll, the veggie packed roti was stuffed and toasted on tawa. Loved the crunch of veggies and the outer layer of roti as well. Beautifully made. One bite will leave you asking for more. Highly Recommended.
Sizzling Pineapple Chaat was last but not the least appetizer. Marinated pineapple chunks, skewered and grilled served on the sizzler platter was not only delicious but healthy as well. The skills of the chef can be witnessed by the fact that the chunks were grilled nicely keeping the juices intact. Chaat masala, spices were well identified. Lovely dish.
Stuffed until brim, could not try much of the main course, but we definitely tasted a spoonful of everything. I was excited to try the popular and signature Dal Factory. We had thick, creamy, mild sweet Paneer Butter Masala, Medium spiced Subz Dum Handi and the 16-hours cooked Dal Factory or their version of Dal Makhani. The buttery, creamy, smokey dal was deliciousness personified. You can devour it like that only or accompany it with the range of bread. The sweet Sheermal and Bakarkhani is not to be missed. Highly Recommended!
From the range of desserts, what stood aside was the Bharwan Langcha. Warm gulabjamun like was stuffed with khoya, dry-fruits and just melt-in-mouth. I wish Kulfis had real pulp and wouldn't mind Moong Dal Halwa drenching in ghee. The more the merrier.
Priced at Rs.1199++, the deal is a win-win for non-vegetarians, while vegetarians have limited choices but each dish is worth craving for.
The best part is, unlike the traditional buffet where you have to get up and help yourself each time, at The Great Kabab Factory serves you delicacies at your table. Pure indulgence! Overall, a perfect place to bring along family, friends, for a complete royal dining experience. Special mention to the hospitality, chef and the team for making our meal a memorable one.
