Machan - Restaurant in Bengaluru - Bengaluru Urban, India

The menu selection is limited but the food is great. The mushroom risotto was extremely rich and delicious, and the ginger coconut cooler too. They didn't have the pumpkin spice hot chocolate, was really looking forward to that. The staff was really courteous and attentive, and the restaurant wasn't crowded on a Friday night. Would definitely recommend going here for a quiet delicious meal !

Was here at this restaurant both for lunch as well as breakfast. The Lunch menu widens over various continental and as well Indian cuisines . For the lunch we went for continental and the must say the chicken was so nicely cooked that it almost melted in a second ( which is usually not the case while in grilled chicken) . A nice wide collection of wine to choose from as well. For the breakfast they provide a wide spread right from continental to Indian and south Indian to be precise. An authentic south indian coffee to die for ! All in all very worthy experience !

Was here for the breakfast buffet. The food was good. With a variety of Indian and continental food. But the service was almost non existent. A waiter came to our table once at the end of our meal when several plates were piled up in our table.

Love the live piano during dinner and flute music during breakfast. Sets the ambience. Food options are wide. Vegetarian and kid friendly. Staff is courteous but service is a tard slow. This is the place for dessertarians..

Quiet disappointing for Taj brand. 1. The buffet spread was very much limited and if you are vegetarian, doubly disappointing. I thought atleaat the Taste would lift the limited menu but very ordinary spread. 2. The service was the biggest let down. No one attended the table for anything. No welcoming ambience either. Saw many annoyed customers complaining. There are many staffs but moving around clueless. Well, in short hugely disappointed.

Firstly, very hygienic ambiance. Covid-19 protocols strictly followed, every staff member was wearing a double mask and place was well-equipped with hand-sanitisers. Outdoor seating lovely. Friendly staff. Talking about the food, I'm a Biriyani lover! Hence tried their Hyderabadi Chicken dumb Biriyani, it was so delicious that my mouth is salivating while typing this review! We also ordered the buttermilk marinated chicken, this could have been a little more spicier! It was my mom's birthday, so asked for a little surprise and loved the efforts taken by the staff. Special mention to Upasana, she was helpful throughout, from making a reservation to bringing my mom's surprise! Thank you, We had a great time :)

I feel like the service levels have gone down considerably after covid. Food packing was done directly in a paper brown bag without even wrapping in food grade aluminium foil for a takeaway. Another time recently, we ordered cappuccino but we got a flat white. When asked, the waiter said the machine was not working.He could have communicated this earlier- that's all I ask for. One would expect much better service from this restaurant. I think their staff needs more training. The feeling we got is - I don't care . This is all we serve.

The food is the primary focus! We loved the 'Chicken Onion Soup' to get your palate started and if you just love Chicken do not forget to try the chicken marinated in buttermilk and crispy fried to provide you a delectable combination of juicy and crispy! The 'Wild mushroom ragout' is for people who love Italian flavours. A nice dish that's subtle and yet not so filling. For main course there are a host of scrumptious options like the 'Maori's Lamb Chops' (New Zealand Lamb chops with root vegetable puree', crispy fried kale, Tomato and leek confit) or the 'Tonga Reef' if you love salmon. Among these delectable international dishes, you shall also find Indian highlights such as the 'Kabini Lamb Chops' or the 'Kottayam Fish Curry'. There is a selection of Pastas and Pizzas in case that's what you are looking for. And keep some space for the Signature 'Bullseye' a luscious chocolate and ice cream dessert that hits the right notes! The flavours are on point and each dish represents a sophisticate cooking technique by the chefs. How's the Ambience? The restaurant has ample dining areas that include indoor, partially covered and open air spaces. You may choose what works best for you. The seating is pretty well spaced and offers much privacy. The greenery of the Taj Westend property provides the perfect backdrop to the 'Machan' experience. We particularly love the seating in the lawn.
