Barbeque Nation - Indiranagar Bangalore

A very different kind of place and I certainly like the idea of having kebabs and drinks! Its the perfect place to catch up with friends, family or business. Its split across 3 levels - the terrace being our favorite but remember that it is also the most cluttered. So if you are going at a time when its crowded - I would suggest that you rather sit at the ground level or first floor.
The unlimited starters are served at your table and a rather innovative grill on the table slowly cooks the kebabs on your table as you chat. A fantastic idea - specially when you are able to add in the dressing or sauces that are available at the table. Its good for both veggies and non-veggies - a good mix of starters at all times. The chicken was soft, seafood well done and the lamb was well marinated. As for veggies - the variety is decent - I felt a bit spicy but great when eaten hot off the grill on the table.
Once you are done with the unlimited starters - there is a standard buffet spread. It has veg and non-veg - have been there a few times and we got the same menu on the buffet each time (dal, rice, okra etc for veggies and crab curry, chicken masala and lamb masala for non veggies - this was apart from the salads and curd, papad etc).
Service is OK and leaves some room for improvement. So if you are with a special group and want to get the best attention - you got to think a bit. There was nothing rude - just that they are not very polished.

Style - 2.5 stars
Will I go there again? - Yes
Meal for 2 (unlimited starters) - ~ Rs 1200
