Here is my take on the restaurant
1.Food (3/5) – Was reasonable. Nothing out of the world. Would have expected a little more in terms from a BJN group. Try - Dal makhani and finally a pan.
2.Ambience (4/5) – The place is nice, interestingly made up to resemble a road side dhaba. But would have appreciated better seating that goes with feel and look of the place. A netted coir cot (like the ones in roadside dhaba) would have been good idea. Anyways, I noticed that it seemed quite popular among the foreigns guests/visitors. (Probably due to proximity to the Taj Hotels!)
3.Service (3/5) – Nothing much to complain here. Simple good service.
4.Price (4/5) – May be on slightly on expensive side if you order liquids. But it’s BJN Group so one cannot compare it to a smaller chain/group. A table for two (Veg) should cost you around Rs.400 to 500. Give the central location and the reputation of BJN group, I would not call it very expensive.
But suggest you go without too much expectation (difficult after reading all the reviews :)).

Angeethi...if you want to spend time wid ur friends in the heart of the city at a dhaaba...Angeethi is the place.. A good attempt at creating a nice dhaaba kinda atmosplhere... the walls resemble the typical punjabi dhaabas at the city outskirts.. had buffet there more than a couple of times.. good allround coverage wid a plethora of cuisines... spicy and scrumptious indeed !!

While many restaurants in the city claim to offer ‘asli Punjabi khana’ few do justice to this tag. In fact, the tag itself has become such a cliché what with every other restaurant in the city claiming that its dal makhani and Punjabi chole are as authentic as they come. However, one restaurant that is an exception to this rule, thankfully, is Angeethi situated in Banjara hills. The word Angeethi in hindi roughly translates into an open stove that burns charcoal to keep rooms warm during winters. Everything from the name to the ambience not to mention the food is strictly Punjabi and as you walk in you will unmistakably notice that. Coming to the food, it was a scrumptious buffet with a wide variety of both veg and non veg dishes. If you are the health conscious kind, be advised that all the dishes, although tasty, were rich in ghee. The food is moderately priced and a meal for two is unlikely to exceed Rs. 400-500. If you are a Punjabi food fanatic make sure you check out this place.

Worst part of this restaurant is beverages are damn expensive . Mineral Water (1 ltr) is Rs.60 and Soft Drink (200 ml) is Rs.60. While having dinner at restaurant, people order these drinks without fail.So they should offer this at reasonable prices. Another worst drink they have is Soup’s(100 ml) which costs Rs.70. This Soup is served in a 100 ml tea glass. The only difference from normal Tea glass which we get in tea shops is they offer soup in the same tea glass but it is kept in a small jug made with Brass metal … My sincere suggestion who ever visiting Angeethi is please “ Refrain from ordering fluids ” as these prices are not at all reasonable…It costs me Rs.800(incl. tax) just for odering 6 Soft Drinks (200ml each), 2 Mineral Water(1000 ml each) & 4 Soups (100ml each) ...
This is pure Punjabi Dhaba resemblance restaurant with good ambience but
Seating arrangement is bit congested. Items listed in Menu book are very tough to understand and place the order. People visiting for the first time should definitely take help from waiters before placing the order. probably Buffet cud be a good deal which serves from Monday to Saturdat Afternoon's @ rs.199
