    Pathetic quality of food. Will rate 0/5. So baland, no taste, took so long to cook and then also looks like they served us leftover food. The only thing nice is the place. Except that, the food is Terrible. Will never visit again. Also, with this bad food they're charging so high. There are hundreds of better places in and near CP for good food. These 2 brownies were like 400rs or something around that number. So small, can be finished in 1 bite.

    The cheapest and best buffet in town, and that too in proper Connaught Place, opposite Janpath Metro Station. Unlimited Buffet Just For Rs 645 . Unbeatable Offer with Live DJ . best for small gatherings and birthday parties. Ambience's impact is too good. Food quality is okay. Service is a little slow, but I don't mind

    Honestly not worth the hype! Food is literally a 1/5. Over-priced and the quantity is not upto the mark. For me its dumping your money. There a lot of better Options out there you can try. Ambience was good but paying a hefty amount just for the sake of Ambience is not worth the shot.

    The experience was fabulous 🤩,It was a company party so we had already a slot booked here from 7-11. The employees are friendly and the service n food was excellent and drinks were also served and have a good place for dancing n seating area. I will definitely recommend going here for sure.

    We were 4 friends and we decided to hope in. The food was nice, it's a place where you can have booze and enjoy with your friends specifically on weekends there are particular nights like we attended live night it was preety cool. We paid a sum of 16K for booze and snacks however got a discount using Dineout app. Overall anyone who is looking to enjoy without waiting to get the table can check-in here on weekends easily however make sure to be present by 8PM because I saw many people coming after were not able to get the table.

    Recently I visited here. Nice place to hangout and dance with your group. Talking about the food, the exotic pizza was very nice. However, the pasta was not very good. The staff was okay. Overall a moderate experience.

  • 3/5 Chetan “Delhi Travel B. 7 months ago on Google • 41 reviews
    Imperfecto's Informal section brings a mix of hits and misses to the table. The "Hits" include the succulent sliders bursting with flavor and the crispy onion rings that are an addictive delight. However, the "Misses" consist of the lackluster nachos, which could use more toppings and cheese. The ambiance adds to the experience with its casual and trendy vibe. While some dishes shine, others fall short, making it a bit of a mixed bag. If you're up for a relaxed hangout with friends and willing to explore the menu, Informal at Imperfecto might satisfy your cravings in a laid-back setting.

  • 1/5 nitin t. 2 years ago on Google
    The place is good but the quality of food and service is very poor. I went here with my friends and our experience here has been very very very bad as we have wasted our money here. It would have been nice if we went to McDonald's. ☹️ I don't know how this place is getting 4+ rating.

    Nothing can be worse then visiting informal to celebrate you day, I went to informal on 29th sep on my birthday to celebrate and end up with spoiling my time. DJ guy behave like we are beggers and have to manage with the music he is playing. Worst experience, my recommendation never visit this place if you don't want to spoil your mood. Giving 1 star bcs thr is no option to give less then this else I would have given in negative.

  • 4/5 Piyush J. 4 years ago on Google
    I visited this place on a birthday party come my friends birthday. I heard alot about this place and it stands on almost everything i heard. Coming to the food we ordered Alfredo pasta, spring rolls and some vegetables pizza and our total bill was of ₹1440 +taxes. Pasta looks delicious and tasted a bit less spicy but after putting oregano they were a blast. Spring rolls were delicious and served with hot sauce. Pizza was in oval shape which i found a bit unique. Ambience was also nice with live music but it was a bit dark more lights will work moreover the services were slow as they're was not such a loud music still we have to shout almost thrice to ask for water and food. The staff was not at all willing and they were giggling with each other as there was no crowd.

    Went here couple years ago and thought of revisiting the place. Friday night and the place seemed like a ghost town. Almost nobody in there apart from the crew and a few people here and there. The first level was almost like it was shut down. Just had one drink coz we were in there but then left soon after.

    Ambience is good. Live music was the best part. Staff behaviour could be better. They are forcefully charging extra 10% service charge even after asking them to remove it. The taste of food was fair enough but the service was very slow.

    We had a team dinner here. All in all it’s a good place to hangout with live music and some really tasty dishes they serve. They serve hookah also and i think it has scope of improvements but apart from we loved it here.

  • 1/5 Arun Kumar S. 7 months ago on Google • 21 reviews
    As per our office party feedback, Really sorry to say but management was not good. Food and food service (By Vikas and Rupesh) good But there were hidden cost saving practice followed by the staff... 1. Beer refill - too delayed to save cost 2. Beer brand mixed up not standard 3. Dj Fail (no rhythm, technical fault 30 min) 4. After party time guests were dishonoured 5. Just after 10 min of party wrap one extra water bottle charged for 144 rupees. 6. Zero hospitality in party time (start and end was only attended).

  • 1/5 Supreena D. 2 months ago on Google • 6 reviews New
    The only reason I'm giving one star is because there's no an option for no stars. I had high hopes for Informal by Imperfecto, but my visit was a letdown from start to finish. Despite arriving at 1:30 for the lunch buffet advertised to start at noon, I found myself waiting for an hour. The buffet offerings were shockingly sparse, with just one veg and one non-veg item, along with a meager selection of starters and a single beverage—far from what was promised. What truly stung was the price tag attached to this lackluster experience. A staggering 699 rupees for such a paltry spread felt like a scam. To make matters worse, the audacity to charge an astronomical 800 rupees for a single Corona beer was beyond belief. The service was excruciatingly slow, and the overall quality of the food was mediocre at best. My visit to Informal by Imperfecto was a massive disappointment, leaving me feeling like I'd been taken advantage of. This experience is a cautionary tale for anyone considering dining here.

    -Vibe: Cool experience for people who love music. Live performances are djs are present. -Food: main course has little variety but the starters are absolutely delicious and have good variety too. Must try the mint lemon mojito too. -Service: The staff is very helpful and polite. Great service. -Ambience: The places is decorated like a cool retro museum and has nice and aesthetic lighting. Perfect place for pictures.

    Visited the second time. This time on a Saturday. Even after requesting politely thrice for a sofa seating, staff didn't cooperate citing "reservation issues". Despite no one arriving to said reserved seats. Music was unnecessarily loud. Overall okay

  • 1/5 Reneta K. 3 months ago on Google New
    My husband and I had the misfortune to visit this restaurant a couple of weeks ago while we were visiting Delhi. Our guide from Hello India Tours recommended this place along with a few others. I wanted to go to a south Indian restaurant however the queue was very long, so we gave in and went to this restaurant to save time. One of the chefs kept going around each table asking how the food was and introduced the chef who prepared the food, etc. It felt like they were trying hard to create a narrative that the restaurant is high quality. We had just received the starters (Garlic bread) when he came to our table and asked how the food was. When we said that we've just started eating, he then proceeded to ask how the garlic bread was? (My initial thought was - "give me some space!" although I wanted to ask, "did you make the bread?" because if not, you've basically put some cheese on bread and grilled it in the oven). Long story short, my husband got food poisoning after having the butter chicken from this place. He found the chicken texture to be odd. I found a piece of foil seal which we find on fresh cream bottles in my Thai curry. The staff there did not apologise for this but offered for extra portion after we had finished eating. The Thai curry was a bit salty so needless to say I did not want any more of it. I was shocked to see that we were charged Rs. 145 for mineral water alone. Overall, we paid Rs. 3471 for 2 mocktails, 1 garlic bread, 1 butter chicken naan, 1 thai curry. And Rs. 300 for staff service or something in addition to the normal taxes. Turns out their charges are quite high because the place is basically frequented by foreign tourists during the day who are brought in by their tour guides. The guides get 25% discount on their food. Anyway, I would never go back to this restaurant!!!

    It was a good candle night dinner for us. We sat on the rooftop area. It was quite pleasant. The food was good but could be better. Though I feel prices are a lil high. Overall, good service. The waiter who served us was very good and had a smiling face.

  • 4/5 Bhumika B. 2 years ago on Google
    Recently been to informal on a ladies night. There wasn't much crowd. The restraunts music and lights gave it beautiful atmosphere. We had red sauce pasta and paneer tikka. Both tastes good but the portion size is too less as compared to how much they are charging for. They served us two complimentary cocktails per person on ladies night and they even allow you to make your own cocktails.

  • 1/5 Jo 3 months ago on Google • 3 reviews New
    Food was overpriced and not that great. There are definitely other better places in the area. Also the chicken we ordered was raw. The staff also tried to convince us that it was not, ever though you could clearly see it. Service was also bad, the waiter forgot some of our orders. Also, at the end they wanted to charge us the full amount for the raw chicken. It is such a trap - if your guide wants to take you here, please refuse. This was our situation.

  • 5/5 Rajiv S. 2 years ago on Google
    The Ambience was great. The platter that I was tried was amazing and it is a must try for all the people willing to give their taste buds an experience worth remembering. It is a great place for a small group and you can click amazing pictures here as well to keep your gram satistfied.

  • 1/5 Ruchi S. 2 years ago on Google
    It was pathetic bad service and no customer centricity...we went through nearbuy and were little late...though the cafe is open till 1 AM however, they said you can get the food by 4 pm all the menu was served at once food was cold and looked stale...it was bad experience

  • 3/5 Ashutosh S. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice decor and average good. Great bar tenders. But other staff is horrible! They don't give snacks and try to save as much as they can in parties!

  • 1/5 Sudhanshu C. 2 years ago on Google
    They have one number everywhere to contact them, and no one ever picks it up. They also don't reply on instagram, it's been a week since i have put my query in their DMs. It's virtually impossible to contact them about events and reservations.

  • 2/5 Manish B. 4 months ago on Google
    We organised buffet lunch party of 20 people in this restaurant on Sunday afternoon. The service was pathetic. There was unacceptable delay in serving the food for the buffet counter. They stopped serving after 3.30 PM though the food was supposed to be served till 4.00 PM. We had to argue with manager to serve atleast sweet dish to us. This is unacceptable from a brand like imperfecto. Our experiences at other imperfecto restaurants have been wonderful.

  • 4/5 Kanika S. 2 years ago on Google
    Okay so this has been my all time favourite place to go, awesome DJ, awesome live band and awesome food. Just one small request- please bring back the “dahi ke kebab” as part of your menu, we miss it badly!!

  • 1/5 Chirag A. 4 months ago on Google
    Few days back visited the place and regreting . Management is really poor 1)Firstly they told us to sit on first floor then later changed our booking and asked to settle on ground floor. Do you expect to bear it in advance booking ? 2)Secondly , service is poor asked many times to serve the main course but at the end when many people gone for home then they served . 3)Coming to the the Billing part , services very very slow. Asked many times to provide the correct bill . It was truly not a great experience. 4)Music was not up to the mark and was loud & boring. DJ songs were not played 5)Atmosphere was good and food was tasty. 😋

  • 2/5 Mayur S. 1 year ago on Google
    Althogh the buffet was very competitively priced and especially through Nearbuy site..the service was pathetic. We went in a group of 10 inclluding my 8 year old son to celebrate a birthday in family. The staff here serves as if they are doing a favour upon youq. Yeah Pizza was good but only came after several reminders. No doubt it's a value for money place when buy buffet lunch but we do not exactly go to places like these just to eat. The staff needs an overhauling from top to bottom here.

  • 4/5 Senthil R. 1 year ago on Google
    I always wondered what the fuss was all about when my cousin used to talk about the "F Bar experience" and the curiosity drove me to the club's doorstep. I went there with my party buddies in order to have a good time and believe me "Mission Accomplished". The look & feel of the place was elite & ecstatic, music was spellbinding that enticed us to dance as if there's no tomorrow, We ordered beer, cocktails, Lebanese platter with hummus pita & falafel which had the perfect balance of flavour and pasta & fish n chips which were decently good. All in all, I am definitely coming back to have another night to remember.

    Was really happy to find this place on the map! Amazing food, great DJ and a spectacular performance by the live band. Couldn't have asked for more. Oh, forgot to mention about the bar... It is by far one of the best watering holes in the city. The place attracts a very niche and decent crowd too. Can't wait to be a regular to this joint. Will be visiting again!! Parking is also a breeze!

    I will never suggest my friends for this place. Ambience is good but i am suggesting you to not sit at 1st floor. I hate this place because of bad food , service is quite good but food is not good. We orders a pizza and pasta both was tasteless

  • 2/5 Barkha J. 3 years ago on Google
    Quite a large place. Saturday evening at 5 PM, it was totally empty and we were the only customers. The music was too loud so we sat upstairs in the outdoor seating. Ambience - 3/5 The ambience there is okay. Inside it's dark and dingy like a bar, and outside they have tried to spruce it up with some nice photos and posters and a wall of bamboo. Food - 2/5 The food wasn't good. So disappointing when you go to a relatively expensive place. Food needs to be your USP, guys.. We ordered Naanizza (naan + pizza), Corn Papri Chat and Chilli Paneer. The Chili paneer sucked, Naanizza was more tasteless and Corn Papri Chaat was good. Drinks - 3/5 The drinks were good however, both a Sangria and an LIIT.

👍👍 Absolutely love their rice combos. Paneer rice is my all time favourite. Great option for dinner, if you work nearby. If you're looking for a place for quick bites, then you need to visit this place.
