Ci Gusta

Great place for dates and cafe/casual dining experience. The serenity that this place offers with the views overlooking lush green trees and obviously the durgam cheruvu is quite pleasant. The theme of this cafe can be described as something mediterranean or Greek to be precise and looks appealing in the day. Looking forward to visit this place during night as well.

This is one of the very few places I would actually suggest to a tourist that's new to Hyderabad. It's been almost a year in this city, and I've never seen a better ambience anywhere yet. The food is top-notch, the view is 2x better, and the customer service is brilliant. You can take your kids, family, or your partner. The vibe is a lot better during the night. :) I was a little disappointed with the Fish and Chips, however.

Nice restaurant overseeing the Durgam Cheruvu lake, having a splendid view. Restaurant stands special, alone in the hilly lakeside. Although, its bit of expensive , the ambience of the entire restaurant is worth spending, having variety of sitting spaces, music and gardens. The cliff side is having candle light setup. I will rate less only for the variates of food in the menu. Food was good, price on higher side. I tried Pizza and chicken breast with rice. Lot of parking space is available.

A perfect setup for a feel of a place away from the city, the noise and the rush but still located in the heart for the city of Hyderabad. The place is setup on a hill side facing a lake. Give you the feel of a Goan cafe away from the crowd facing the backwaters. A very peaceful setup, light music, built across different levels as per the rocky hill terrain. And amazing ambiance created with the dim lighting and the pathway created to the sitting area and the light music Good Food with a small menu size. Perfect for a date or a small group of friends. A must visit dinner outing when in Hyderabad. Must try food items - Greek chicken, Potato mash, pizzas. Drinks - good brew options. Try the tasters to select your taste of beer.

Cozy place. Situated with a beautiful and serene view of Durgam cheruvu lake front this place has to offer a wide range and variety of food. The ambiance is top notch and the food quality and taste is super good. Great place to visit in groups and instagrammable locations for photo freaks out there. Overall a fine dining experience. Also this place offers an open area for alcoholic consumables in a separate area distinguished from normal dining areas.

We dined at this charming place on a weekday, securing our table just an hour before lunch. Perhaps due to the day of the week, we were able to secure a reservation with a view of the lake. The restaurant is located a bit off the main road, making it feel private. The path to the restaurant makes you feel like you're going to a special place, with lots of greenery around. The atmosphere inside is unique and really nice. If you sit outside, you'll enjoy a beautiful view of the lake, and the seating is really comfy. Instead of a traditional menu, they employ the increasingly popular QR code system, which many restaurants now follow. They have thoughtfully provided ingredient details for each menu item, which is good given the variety of names used by different restaurants for the same dish. As is often the case, the vegetarian choices are somewhat limited compared to the extensive non-vegetarian menu. We ordered a variety of items, and here are the ones that stood out for us: Spinach Corn and Potato Fritter: Essentially, it's a cutlet made from a mixture of corn, potato, and spinach (palak), and it was exceptionally delicious. We ordered it twice and received five pieces per plate. Flourless Chocolate Cake: A must-try dessert for chocolate enthusiasts, it's served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and delivers a heavenly experience. Avocado Toast: This dish features nicely toasted bread topped with an abundance of avocado, providing a tasty treat that's quite filling. Veg Burrito Bowl: Loaded with veggies, which is great, but they used Schezwan rice as the flavored rice, which we didn't particularly enjoy. Strawberry and Blueberry Smoothies: Please note that these smoothies aren't entirely made from fresh fruit; they contain some artificial flavors that somewhat dilute the taste. Avoid them if you're seeking a purely fresh fruit option. Tiramisu: This version doesn't quite capture the original Italian flavor, as it leans more towards a strong coffee taste with a creamier texture. Parking arrangements are ample, with both ample self-parking and valet service available. In summary, this is an unconventional themed restaurant offering a decent selection of vegetarian dishes. Expect to spend around 1500 per person for starters, main courses, and dessert.

This is a nice place to hangout overlooking the Durgam Cheruvu lake, although you may not get any view at night. We sat outside, and the candle light setup was awesome. During rain it is better to sit inside though. The ambience of the entire restaurant is good, multiple sitting areas, live music and attractive landscaping. Food was good, little pricy but worth it. We tried some white pasta and smoked chicken. Enough parking is available. It is a little difficult to reach the restaurant through Google maps, some short cuts are actually not available to the general public.
