With Taksim, owner Sahil Madan anticipated the capital’s resto-bar obsession, converting 4,200 sq. ft. space into a patio for sharing coffee and ‘Create Your Own’ burgers and an indoor contemporary dining room that hums with excitement. It is rare to encounter such ostentation in Delhi restaurants these days, but it is an apt setting for chef Sanjay’s World cuisine menu. 'Mezze Platters' and the signature 'Arabic Sushi', 'Tandoori Dumplings Stuffed with Chicken', 'Chello Kabab', 'Mansaf' a bejewelled biryani style preparation, and so on. Taksim has exceeded trendiness and become a city fixture. All in all, it is a warm, low-key scene, where the DJ plays house and hip-hop music and the volume is just accurate for conversation, families crowded around their favourite tables and watch live entertainment from an aerial stage that pops up from the second level, overlooking the main area, which earns a whoop from the room. The chic lounge upstairs is ideal to seat.
