"I was so pleased to read about the reopening of Rattan, but was, sadly, disappointed with the experience. The lighting is more chain-restaurant bright, the servers were dressed quite sloppily, and were very slow with service even though there were plenty of them on the floor. There was one menu on the table to share between us- we commented on it and the waiter just shrugged and walked away. The price changes really floored us. They didn't just increase, they went crazy-high. We ended up not staying because even the appetizers were overpriced, yet most were unappealing."

"Planning a party of 225 people is challenging when you are doing all by yourself, so I started couple of months before. I reached out to Biryani N Grill and went for food tasting. My husband and I liked their food and decided to cater from them. We had customized few dishes to our palette, and they obliged to our requests. For Cocktail hours we had Samosa Chat, Mixed Vegetable Pakora, and Chicken fingers. For Main Course we had Goat Biriyani, Chicken Korma, Paneer Tikka, Tindora fry with Cashews, Eggplant Salan, Mango Dhal, Bagara Rice, Roti, and Naan along with Papad, Raita, and condiments. And For Dessert we had fruit salad with Rabdi. The meat and vegetables were cooked to perfection. The Goat biriyani and the Chicken Korma had lots of meat pieces and not just gravy and the same with the Paneer dish. They had prepared the Tindora fry with fresh tindora and not the frozen ones. The dishes were very clean with right amount of spice and not greasy at all. Every single item on the menu was delicious and there was enough food to serve all and take home some. Our guests enjoyed the food and their comment was ‘food is excellent’ and so is ours. We will be visiting again this weekend."

"I like the atmosphere! It more of a Japanese Korean fusion inspired restaurant. Cute soju bottle decor This is what I ordered : Homemade Crab Puffs 4/5 a bit too much cream cheese in the mix. The wonton crunch was thin and crispy. Takoyaki 3/5 flavor was there but it was dense and too gooey inside. Spicy Salmon Roll 4/5 basic spicy salmon roll. Chicken Katsu Bento Box 4/5 it’s a lot of food. The salad and the dressing was the first part I finished. The gyoza was alright there wasn’t a lot of flavor in it though. California rolls were basic California rolls. The chicken Katsu had a really nice crunch was juicy and moist but it just needed to be tossed in salt for a second. Overall I had a good experience here. I was able to eat my leftovers for dinner I’ll probably come back for happy hour."

"I always have a fantastic experience at this restaurant. I ordered the filet mignon with a lobster tail, but I was a little disappointed because I only received half of the tail. In the past, I've always had a whole tail. On a positive note, the filet mignon was cooked perfectly to my order, medium and juicy. However, I was let down by the vegetables, as the dish now comes with broccolini, which is a genetically modified hybrid of asparagus and broccoli and lacks flavor. The loaded baked potato was excellent, and I also had a Bloody Mary that was just okay. On the bright side, the service was outstanding. I’ll definitely be returning for more!"

"We had come across good reviews of Cafe Benedicte previously but last night was our first time there as the restaurant is 40 minutes drive from where we live. It turned out that Cafe Benedicte was worth every minute of that long drive. Everything were to our liking from the foods to the ambience, to the services. For appetizer, my wife had the Hummus Naan while I tried the Ceviche. Both were excellent. For main course, the missus had the Multigrain Protein Bowl (which looked very good but I didn 't sampled and I had the Braised Lamb Shank. It was super tasty and fall off the bone, fork tender. The accompanied mashed potatoes and haricots verts were excellent as well. For dessert, we shared a piece of Carrot Cakes which was soft, moist, and just the right level of sweetness. We also enjoyed the live piano throughout our meal. Before heading home, we stopped at the bar for half an hour enjoying a night cap and listened to a few more songs from the highly skilled and entertaining piano players. All and all, it was a wonderful evening, and despite the long drive, we plan to visit Cafe Benedicte again soon, and bring a few friends with us next time."
