Food was fine, mostly liked their sea food items, prawns and crabs, they were good.
This is a gem in this village. Not too far from Nagpur. This place is always crowded on Sunday. This is famous for its non veg food. Vegetarians please be rest assured. They serve food with a green chutney made of daal which is the usp of this restaurant. This chutney along with their curries tastes amazing. They serve drinks in a separate area and family zone is separate. Need to work on washroom cleanliness a lot. And seating area is very airy though I would suggest going in evening when it's not too sunny. They have homemade masalas. And preparation in all village style.
Food is Saoji style and extremely tasty We ordered crab curry, prawns and mutton curry. Seating can be a problem if there are lots of people but otherwise full marks for food.
Taste was nice,,,,, mutton was orginal gavti mutton,,,,,, quantity of 1full is sufficient for 1 person only
