  Our overall experience was great. All the staff were polite and attentive without being intrusive. The food was excellent specially the biryani, except the daal which had too much tomato in it. A little pricey but still a charm for your bucks!

  A Restro-Bar Named Elysian”“Softly softly, openee restaurant” – This advice is taken so strongly to heart by few, that you wouldn’t even know they were opening at all…The Elysian is arguably one of the most beautiful restaurants in town. The unconventional ceiling, and the wooden tables & chairs in beautiful cast iron moulds are incredible. The three-kinds of chairs and non-harsh lighting enhances the overall ambience. Seating at this place is a beautiful blend of formal and informal, and unlike many places where you sit with your close ones but never speak to them, something about Elysian inspires fond conversations. It might be because it feels more like a bar than a restaurant. (I’m not sure what to call that, but I sure do like it.)Their menu is HUGE (you may take more than a couple of minutes to browse through it) and the spread they offer is a fine balance between European and Indian cuisines, with a few Malay, Chinese and Mexican delicacies. The food they serve is not spicy (of course if you love super spicy food, it can be customized) but rich in flavours and textures. The choices are best left to the captains who can suggest you an assortment of their dishes to give you an idea of full range.We planned to try a combination of Indian as well as Continental dishes. In soups we tried Broccoli Almond (Veg) and Dhaniya Murg Shorba, and Broccoli Almond unanimously won the hearts of all. It is a must try at Elysian.The starters we tasted included Galouti Kebabs, Dahi Ke Sholey, Makhmali Kebabs and Chicken Satay. The Makhmali Kebabs were indeed makhmali, soft and succulent. But the showstopper here was the Dahi Ke Sholey – pan fried bread rolls stuffed with hung curd and secret spices. Unlike usual starters, it has a unique taste and is crispy on the outside while creamy on the inside. Don’t miss to order this starter when you visit the place.The main course comprised Peri Peri Paneer, Makhmali Kofta, Chicken Stroganoff and Murg Patiyala. After tucking in the starters, we polished off the main course servings too in minutes.Peri Peri Paneer is a wholesome meal in itself as it comes as platter that includes grilled cottage cheese (marinated in Peri Peri Sauce), a bed of steamed exotic vegetables and herbed rice.Chicken Stroganoff has always been a ‘one pot comfort’ meal for me. The dish consists of chicken pieces and few basic Russian ingredients gently simmered together to create deep flavours, resulting in a savory, rich, sour cream-kissed silky consistency. I prefer it with noodles or rice, but because at Elysian it comes accompanied with Mashed Potatoes and Steamed Mushrooms (oh how I love the earthy, meaty flavours of mushrooms), you don’t have to order any side dish with it.The Mocktail menu runs into pages at Elysian – do try out a few while you lounge around, watching a match on the huge projector screen. Our tummies were full with the main courses and the varied Nans & Kulchas, Dal Sultana & Jeera Rice (not describing everything else the post will break the record of being the longest one), but we could have still managed to try out the desserts on the menu, but since we visited the restro-bar during its soft launch period (it officially opens on July 6), the desserts were not in the offering.Would come back soon for the desserts, the lasagna and the soon-to-be-introduced rectangular pizza.USP: Lovely, cozy, retro-European ambience. The owners at Elysian encourage you to take a tour of the kitchen – so you know exactly how hygienically is your food being prepared.Cost – at par with other fine-dine restaurants in Baroda.

  Ambience: 4/5Service : 4/5Food: 4/5On a rainy weekend evening we stumbled upon this place due to no waiting.The ambience has nice vibe.. we got middle table but prefer the sofa seating as it’s more comfortable. They had screening of world cup cricket match which was a biiiiigggg thing for me being a cricket buff.The staff is courteous but they should do away with taking order on some fancy tablet as it’s too much time consuming. Also upon asking a simple Alfredo pasta the captain was not aware about it which was surprisingWe ordered assorted items as following ;1. Chicken tariwala: bang on as per my friends who had it2. Egg keema curry: bang on with tangy and spicy gravy well garnished3. Mac and cheese pizza : okayish.. too bland for my pallet4. Pepe Di Aglio: pasta in white sauce was also okayish as the cheese taste of sauce missing and it was runny5. Cheese garlic naan: bang onShall definitely visit to explore more items on their array of offeringsCheers

  Ambiance is the only good thing about this restaurant. Not a single food item was tasty. Sorry but expected much more from here but food doesn’t taste good at all.

  Hi Everyone, I been to this restaurant on 25th of April 2019 with family and trust me it was one of the worst experience. The restaurant lacks in each and every aspects- taste, service and mostly the lack of knowledge about the dish. We orderd Tandoori Chicken, Chilli Chicken and a non veg platter; taste ,presentation everything was yuck and it was having a burnt taste. We complained same to the manager and he refused to exchange this. I would suggest everyone to not go to this restaurant please.Chetna Yadav
