Overall

Great take on high-end Indian ...

Great take on high-end Indian cuisine. Not many restaurants manage to combine Indian flavours with truly elegant presentation, but Mantra pulls this off very well, and with a novel but not over-dramatic twist to the food. You won't go wrong with a meal here
