The standout dishes were the mango tart and the lobster curry. I wish some of the other dishes incorporated more mango/mango taste but it was otherwise enjoyable. The mango lassi could have been better.
I’m tempted to revisit to try the vegetarian dishes on the menu. This menu is available until the end of May.
