The Square

I had the pleasure of attending the Awadhi festival at Novotel Pune, and I must say, it was an incredible experience! The decorations transported me to the rich and vibrant culture of Awadh. The moment I walked in, I was greeted with a spread of mouthwatering dishes that had my taste buds dancing with joy. Starting with the soup and starters, the flavors were simply delightful. The hummus breads, nachos, cheese balls, and noodles were absolute favorites. But the chaats were the real showstopper - bursting with tangy and savory flavors that were impossible to resist. Moving on to the main course, both the vegetarian and non-vegetarian options were equally impressive. Each dish was prepared with utmost care and authenticity. The variety of flavors and textures kept me coming back for more. And I must mention, the presentation was exquisite, making the dining experience even more delightful. Last, but certainly not least, was the dessert spread. The desserts stole my heart with their heavenly tastes and beautiful presentation. From traditional Indian sweets to delectable pastries, every bite was pure bliss. I couldn't resist trying everything, and it's safe to say I left with a satisfied sweet tooth. The Awadhi festival at Novotel Pune exceeded all my expectations. The attention to detail, the quality of the food, and the warm and friendly service made it a truly memorable experience. If you're a food lover or someone looking for an authentic taste of Awadhi cuisine, this festival is an absolute must-visit. You won't be disappointed!

Nice quaint place inside Novotel. Buffet spread is excellent, many nice seating options, staff is helpful. They provide a la carte and buffet for lunch and both are good. Chicken Thai curry was nice and good quantity. Paneer gravy was good too. Overall good experience with ambience and food. Good option for any party or treat

Visited The Square at Novotel recently for their Onam Lunch. It was a Lavish buffet comprising of regular dishes as well as special Kerala style dishes like thoran, , chicken stew etc Live Appam counter served hot appam with veg as well as chicken stew . Stew tasted average though. Dosa counter had varieties of dosa with chutneys and podi kerala parotta counter with chicken kheema was good Fusion dishes were delicious. Loved the fish chilli , mushroom pepper fry. Snacks like banana chips , rose cookies etc were fresh & delicious Lemon rice was good but what was missing was plain rice since that pairs best with rasam , parippu , gravies, pappadam etc They had aaloo papdi chaat ., a variety of salads too. There were 2 drinks , one was spicy buttermilk based and the other one was lemon and ginger based. Both were refreshing The best part were the coconut based exotic desserts . A feast for the eyes, couldn’t stop myself from clicking pictures. Every dessert was a piece of art The ambience is undoubtedly amazing. Very spacious and well lit restaurant The arrangements were amazing and the taste was good too. Would definitely love to visit again to try their regular dishes since those looked tempting too.

Located right near the malls and airport this place has a warm ambience and cozy appeal. The staff is courteous. It's a multicuisine buffet spread. The bread were fresh and delicious. Right from the salads to starters to main course and the desserts and drinks the taste was amazing. Special mention to Omkar for prompt & pleasant service.
