ALFREDO’S , THANE.
Alfredo’s created quite a hype around its name when it newly started but unfortunately it couldn’t live up to the same. Highly expensive with ridiculously snobbish staff at their disposal this restaurant offers nothing that you haven’t seen before. We decided to dine at this place on a weekday and what we experienced was utter disappointment.

Firstly we were given a super-warn welcome because we told them we were there to write a review and offered their special dishes as well. So for the starters they suggested we try the vegetarian version of Sicilian Garlic Chicken where the chicken was replaced with paneer and we were served Sicilian Garlic Paneer. The dish was made in tones of garlic and tossed in pesto sauce. Although the garlic gave a nice taste to the dish the pesto did not go well with it and I would suggest not to go for it if you do not like garlic ( in abundance ) + pesto (in abundance). For the mains we were served Conchigle Verdure Pasta which was decent enough to taste but not worth paying a bomb for a quantity which can barely satisfy the hunger of one person. Then comes the deserts the list of which had some 5-7 items to select from but the only things available were Brownie with Ice Cream and Scoops of Ice Cream. And the excuse for the lack of these deserts was that our pastry chef isn’t available today. What do you confer from this?? I leave it upto to you readers. So yes we did skip the deserts because after hearing a no for almost 4 options we were in no mood for a “Brownie”.

So, this place greatly lacked all that it promises and left us highly dejected. The only good thing that happened here was that we got a 50% off on the bill because we made the payment using the Axis Bank card.

Ambience: 3.5/5
Service: 2/5
Food: 3/5

Weight on the pocket: burns a big fat hole!!
