Good
The donuts on offer are really spongy and chewy. The sizes are just right for a snack or a light dessert. They could do with some more flavors though the ones they have are nothing the sneeze at. Try the Double trouble for a double dose of chocolate in your donut. My favorite is the Cinnaster which has sugar and cinnamon sprinkles on the donut.
The place where they prepare the donut has glass walls and you can be assured of the cleanliness of the place. Every donut I have tried till date is yummy and we make it a point to pack in at least one donut every time we visit Oberoi mall!!
Wish I could post pics of the donut here!!

We were seated about an hour after we arrived. So make reservations before you land up there. We stuck to Italian on our visit and weren't disappointed in the least. The pastas were delicious, the bruschetta was good and the desserts were good too. The tables, I thought, were a bit too close to each other.
The service was friendly, if a little slow. Oh, and they do read the feedback - i got promotional stuff on my email.
All in all, a must visit place. Food much better (and cheaper) than Olive next doors.

The pastas at pizzeria are almost as good as the pizzas!! We ordered a simple Arabiatta and it was scrumptious.
The pizza I ordered, stuffed crust tandoori paneer, though, was disappointing. It was, basically, tasteless. Realised for the first time what too-much-of-cheese meant. But the garlic bread and everything else, was spot on.

Excellent
This Candies caught me by surprise. I had come to associate Candies with crowds waiting for a table, waiting for a take-out and crowds waiting for divine intervention to help them decide what on the succulent menu to order. This place is huge!! The seating area (or should I say areas?) are beautiful, quiet and interesting. They span up three levels of open seating in a Mediterranean-style white veranda scheme and have tables and seats in nooks as well. Greenery all round and the tables are not cramped at all and the music is low but great.
I just wish that they had at least the menu at the tables. Self-service and then trundle three floors with the trays is not my idea of fun on a lazy Sunday afternoon.
Food is great as ever. But the ambiance blew me away!! Must visit.

Like raymasky said, the ambience is really cool, open but without an A/C. They even have a double decker bus at the entrance that doubles up as a waiting area and a dessert station - the kids just love it. They have created faux shop windows and entrances to keep up with the street-cafe ambience. This cafe also boasts of a hookah bar sort of thing on the first floor and an exclusive vegetarian joint at the back of the cafe is going to added soon.
Now, the food. Excellant food, didn't have a single bad point except the service. Most of the staff was just running around and everything looked a tad chaotic. Then again, its a new restaurant, hardly a month old so I think things will be better soon. The food though is excellant and they have a great dessert selection as well. Everything we ordered was great.
Try the English ratatouille and the amazing Irish coffee mousse.
A definite thumbs-up kinda place.
