The "Grill" experience...

“Where to go for a good BBQ in Nasik?”  was a big question a few days ago..

"Barbeque Ville" a newly opened restaurant (off Mumbai - Nasik Highway), answers this question to quite an extent! The concept of’ Live Grill’ has been introduced for the first time, and have to say, it’s really exciting!

Now about food, though it’s a preset menu it offers you wide choices of veg n non veg food from starters to desserts and servings are unlimited.

A chat cart welcomes you with usual options like panipuri, bhel ects. But it’s advisable not to stuff yourself with chat as much more awaits you…

A real hero is the “Live grill” filled with sizzling coals which is placed directly on your table. An array of mouthwatering veg and non-veg starters (6 varieties each) grilled in front of you and served directly on your plate!

Amongst non-veg starters, Mutton seekh kebab just melts in your mouth, fish sholey n bhuna hariyali zinga are delicious as well. Chicken starters too are well spiced and tasty.
Vegetarians might get a little disappointed as there is no much BBQ touch to veg starters except paneer amrapli n filafila mushroom.  Other starts neither serve your taste nor the cost… now can you imagine that a starter in a bbq menu could b sabudana tikki??

Along with Live Grill you get 3 Oils and 3 Dipping Sauces to enhance the Test of Starters.

Once you are through with the Live Grilled Starters (Unlimited quantity is offered), then comes the Buffet Main course.

Buffet is like any other 3 Star restaurants with Veg Non Veg Soups, a Salad Bar (5 Varieties) .

Non Veg Main course offers one Indian style gravy dish of  each Chicken, Mutton and Fish. Nothing very spectacular especially once your expectations are high post the delicious Starters.

Veg Main Course also has about 3 varieties of veggies, Garlic noodles and Dal.

Veg Pulao and Chicken Dum Biryani are options in Rice preparations.
Biryani being pick of the lot post starters.

The Wide spread of Desserts (around 8 of them) raises once expectations, but White Chocolate Ball is a must try. Others seem to be just adding to the crowd. The Dessert menu can be shortened and more emphasis can be given on taste than variety.

No Tipping Policy is also first in this hotel which we saw in Nasik, saying that the Service is quite prompt and courteous.


Overall - Great Starters, ordinary main course and little disappointing Desserts but good ambiance and a unique experience of a Live Grill & Good service makes it worth the time & Money spent.
