Why Travelers Love The Imperial
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
Stopped by at this place for a quick dinner. Really enjoyed the food! The service was great and the food was really good... Rahu treated us well and gave good suggestions. Food instructions followed properly. The food at The Imperial Spice in Connaught Place was genuinely delicious and well-crafted. However, the rest of the experience felt a bit overrated and overpriced. Given the premium pricing, I expected a spotless environment with authentic royal vibes, but the ambience didn’t quite live up to those expectations. Great food, but the overall value and setting could be improved. The sign board and the staircase gave this away at first impression. The overall arrangements were decent, but the service could have been much better. The service staff appeared sluggish, and the captains on the floor were not very proactive in managing the event or attending to guests. A little more attentiveness and coordination from the team would have made the experience smoother and more enjoyable.

Food, ambience, price, hospitality, location everything is a 10/10. Best thing is they have a chair escalator for the elderly, however you have to climb 4-5 steps then it's available. So completely wheelchair bound people cannot visit i guess. Their staff is quite friendly and supportive. They provide complete assistance. Overall food experience is top notch. It's a must visit place if you are looking for a perfect dinner/lunch in CP
