It is situated centrally in the Hauz Khas Village and their agents convinced us to try it once. The crowd was okay and the DJ was good. But the food was so tasteless and bland. I could not eat the pizza we ordered, and since I dont like wasting food, I told them to pack it so that I could give it to a homeless person. The staff gave me the look, as if shes so stingy that she cant leave the pizza here. We took the pizza and gave it to a poor lady outside who was hungry. Definitely wont visit again.

I’m at a loss for words. Maquina cafe itself is so beautiful, exotic and so unique as compare to Hauz khaz cafe’s. Love they entry and ambience. Totally wood decor perfect atmosphere for any occasion seriously Maqunia is incredible so accommodating and goes out of her way to make sure that everyone has a special and memorable experience. The food is exquisite as well, seriously you really can’t go wrong with any item on the menu.The chef is so creative and the food blends flavour so well.Appetiser Cajun Roasted bell pepper nachos , so cheese well roast in oven, taste so crunchy cheese and tangy.The next is jalapeño chicken tikka, the nice combination of tex - mix love jalapeño flavour.The next is Assorted pepper and corn pizza , love 10 inch thin crust pizza, cheese burst and good quantity of pepper and corn.Have try two drinks also, jalapeño revenge, must must try the best ISLA Margarita, till date.The next is Orange Bloom, what a mocktail, I’m not a mocktail lover but this is too crazy me, Recommend all nonalcoholic lover.I was spent good time with Maquina.Nice Hospitality, next visit soon :-)#food #drinks #music #hkv

We saw the movie half girlfriend and in the movie there is a scene which was shot at this restaurant, so being the foodies that we are, we decided to check out this restaurant. We went there for lunch and had a fabulous time yesterday.Located in the heart of Hauz Khas Village this small restaurant with a seating of 45 pax was almost empty when we reached but by the time our appetisers arrived it was packed with people.The ambience was nice and abundance of sunlight made it look better. The seating was plush and the bar was well stocked. They had live singing which kept us swinging to his tunesWe tried lots of cocktails and appetisers which were all amazing. Our recommendation are- Chipotle chicken skewers- Lamb meat balls- Corn and spinach dim sum- Stuffed breast of chicken- Tex mex crispy chicken burger- Cajun spiced grilled fish- Spicy chicken and coriander dimsumAmong the cocktails you must try their own twisted version of the popular long island ice tea.For desserts we tried the- Toblerone shot- Churros chocolate glazeChurros could have been crisper, as they taste great but the winner was the Toblerone shots which were splendid

New place and right on the Road... Plays good music. The place is spacious and well placed . I like the interiors. Must try the mozzarella cheese sticks. They have happy hours special on specific drinks only.

Checked out this cafe recently for some Mexican delight.The place has lively ambience and great food.The feedback is as below:Roasted bell pepper nachos - It was properly roasted and yummyOrange bloom - It tasted like original orange juice and was nice.Chipotle Chicken Skewers - It was delicious and juicy just loved it.Smoked Barbeque Chicken Wings - They were properly smoked, spicy and just perfect to my tasting.Flippin Burger - This was huge and delicious. It had kidney beans patty in it, fries and salad as sides.Lemon Soda - It was good perfectly made and was perfect mix of sweet and salt.Go enjoy and party guys.

I was in the mood for Chicken Roulade and couldnt find a place that makes one in South Delhi. So, took the risk with this Mexican outlet & was surprised with the taste. The sauce was smoky, mashed potatoes perfect & the rolls were yummy with a hint of spice. Located in Hauz Khas village, the ambiance of this place is okay but the music sucks!

Good place as allows stag with cover, not much crowd on weekdays, but good crowd on Saturdays. Price is ok but a bit pricey. Has zomato gold so that is good for the Ill part. Not much of a DJ songs are the daily type. So place for mind numbing dancing and shots, i.e boy night out.

Nice music. Nice ambience. Good crowdI had bookmarked this place in the hush hush lanes of huaz khas village for quite a while now and finally made a visit over the weekend for luncheon with a friend.The place is synonymous to other lounges in hkv, we quickly accommodated ourselves and started looking for our choices in the menu.We definitely couldnt skip ordering tex mex, nacho based with a medley of veggies which was worth the try and calories, and indian vegetarian platter coupled with mocktails, kiss me pink which was basically a concoction of different juices such as apple juice, cranberry and orange juice and watermelon cooler which was basically watermelon mojito in passion fruit syrup.My overall experience was very enlightening, Ill hopefully be back soon!

I love the lively environment at Maquina. What differs it from rest was that live singing in evening time wherein different music bands come each day to perform and generate a soothing vibe among audience. Crowd was good in both quality and quantity. And disc is awesome. Quality of food was also upto mark. It was quite good experience I can say.

Pathetic place with below average and overpriced food! Few staff members are rude! Most of the drinks you would want to order are either not available or out of stock. Music is too loud ! I had a horrible experience there. Food was served cold and when asked to replace one of the burnt item that was served the waiter straightaway said it isnt burnt. I tasted it myself👏👏 and refused to replace it!

Food quality and service is pathetic. After 25 minutes they have served kabab. When we eat it , we understand that it was frozen ready to eat kabab . Do not go even if they give you free items.

Food was average, they say they have Mexican. They name it is Tex Mex but they dont know what is MEXICAN.Went to have Mexican food (veg) but didnt find much option. Also they didnt have much stuffing what the actual Mexican food has.It was disappointing.But the live music was good..

Worst place to visit.... All the time thay will be making noise and when you ask them to play music on recommendation theyll tell you that we cant play it and every song played will be played according to playlist... In their playlist all the songs will be for village pepl.... My genuine advise is that DONT VISIT IT AT ALL!!!

After dinner and I needed a place to kill off my time. Walked by this Bar and was attracted by the loud music so went in to check out. It was only 10pm but already had quite a lot of party goers dancing. I enjoyed the Indian remix song at the beginning but approaching late at night they started playing lame techno well it depends on personal taste. Had a couple of beers and price is at the high side.

Review №81

Come here for the worst beer ever. The beer here would make you wonder if its really beer or water. To which youll get an answer that its their draught beer.Draught beer youd ask? Is this what draught beer is? Youd ask them and theyll say yes as if youre the kind of person who doesnt know what draught beer is.Avoid this place if you want to try beer. Come here for other things. Priced too high for no apparent reason.

I cannot understand the good reviews. Dark, musty, dirty space, further compromised by the slight urine smell coming from the bathrooms into the bar area. 😝Tex Mex barely describes the menu. Nacos were small and sad, made with pizza dough instead of tortillas, and ungenerous portion size. Other apps and meals presented and tasted like theyre from a grocery freezer section. Completely unacceptable, even for a dive bar.
