Loved the biryani and the chicken in the Pakistani platter. Would also recommend the chicken corn soup. If I had to pick something negative, Id say the garlic bread was soft, and I wish it were crispy. However, no big deal since it was just a side item.Overall, it was a great experience, and I would recommend this place!

Well not really good, food is so so. For COVID-related question they give disposal paper menus, but they reuse them! The are not convenient to change the soft drink for juice in “platers”

I tried Biryani and Chocolate lava. Biryani was fresh and spicy, fine on taste but average on quantity. Staff was efficient and courteous. Under present situation, they offer only outdoor/corridor tables, so be witty in get a good corner. I rate places a bit strictly, therefore 3 stars, you might find it 4. Goodluck!!

Monal downtown is a very reasonable mixture of “not low” and “Not High” standard. The overall environment is good, it is just that the table placement on the upper deck is a little close to each other. The service is good & quick, the menu has quite some variety. The food is good, not rough or undercooked or over cooked, yet its not outstanding. They serve these platters with different varieties which are very reasonable in cost n quality. At last they also present you with a suggestion card which i guess is an excellent way for any food place to better it self.

Whichever Monal food branch you like to go the best thing is their same unmatched taste even if its bbq or deserts.Love their mutton karahi and palak paneer.Visited this restaurant multiple times, their iftaar menu is also wonderful.Only one drawback is their limited sitting accommodation due to which prebooking is requied most of the time especially in ramzan season.Still a very fascinating food court equipped with different type of desi and foreign dishes.

Excellent food. Truly deserves 5 stars but I am giving 4 stars because I want them to include new unique dishes to their menu as well just to tickle those taste buds. Rest all of the traditional food is superb!

A bit too congested.... Works well with The Monal at Pir Sohawa being an outdoor place, but here it is too suffocating. Have less happy customers guys than trying to pack all of Centaurus inside, grumpy unhappy, vowing never to return to this place ever.

Review №33

They were yum as always. Monal has established a name and everytime their taste is consistent. The best thing for the dinner was their great cooperation. We had a vegetarian guest with us and we discussed with manger to change cream of almond soup to its vegetarian variant as a test for their chef and to our surprise they made cream of almond soup without any meat or meat based products and it was still tasty. our guest liked it very much. They also allowed us to change one BBQ item in a platter. We didnt wanted to have wings and with bit of discussion we got it replaced before finalizing our order.It was a great dinner. Monal knows the game. No doubt.

Comparing to its name and hype, this place needs alot of improvement. Food taste is average, ambience is average and the service is average too. Respecting the fact that its a place with too much crowd I would give it 3 stars, but to maintain the name and the value of place owners need to focus a bit more in it.

Its without a doubt the one of the most expensive restaurant in Islamabad. The service is great the locations is always the best no matter which branch it is. The view of Islamabad it offers are breathtaking. The food is not that great but if you want to have quality time then its not that bad either.

Although location is very good , it is famous for its venue and food , I always preferred this for meal , but recently I had a bad experience, I ordered a Pizza and some Bar B Q which was alright but in pizza found some HAIRS, I called the waiter and his supervisor, they simply said Sorry for this ,I asked them to see the manager but No one came to me NOR couldnt find him in the premises. so pls Avoid and curry , Pizza or food in which HAIR contamination is possible, proof is attached in pictures .
