Hyatt is celebrating it's anniversary month and have introduced new menu at Eight Eight recently. They have a new head chef - Mr. Amol Patil and new F &B manager - Mr. Amit Kapoor and they treated us with some of the new additions to the menu. Chef's speciality is Italian and some of the Italian dishes we had were absolutely amazing. The place has really lavish interiors, great buffet spread, live counters and at least a dozen dessert offerings...and that dessert section is my favorite at Eight Eight. Below are some of the dishes that I really loved and are new additions to their menu. Mulligatawny Soup - is an English soup which originated from South Indian cuisine. The name originates from the Tamil words of chilli and water. It was really flavorful. Burrata cheese insalata - Insalata is an Italian styled salad. It had caramalized onions, cherry tomatoes and burrata cheese. All of us really loved this salad. Nadru ke shami kebab - A recipe from Kashmiri cuisine which I liked. Kebabs made from lotus stem and potatoes were crunchy from outside and moist from inside. Homemade Linguine primavera - Small pieces of pasta in the form of thin ribbons with fresh veggies and primavera sauce. The pastas are home made and this dish was a delight. Homemade Spinach Ricotta Tortellini - Ring shaped pasta with oodles of ricotta cheese and some spinach. Amazing dish! Mushroom and Veg Lasagna was another perfect dish and this would qualify as one of the top few lasagnas I have had till date. During the introduction chef had said that Italian food is his speciality and I had no doubts about that after having these pastas. And then came another surprise - Puneri Batata - an ordinary looking dry potato subzi with lots of groundnuts had hardly any visual appeal but the taste was incredible. Never have I appreciated a potato subzi in my life!!!! Hats off to the chef for this one! For desserts we headed to my favorite section and as always I was spoilt for choices. I had molten brownie which was yummmmmmmmm. Kesari gulab jamun was perfect. An Italian dessert - white chocolate apricot bavarian was also devoured and made for a perfect end to a lovely tasting. Do visit this place and try their new additions to the menu. Tales of their ambience and hospitality are well known and I need not say anything about that.

Bad service and terrible food. It's a surprise that despite being a part of such a popular hotel chain, the food was unpalatable. Definitely not worth spending so much on.

Best place to visit. Lot of varieties you get in veg as well as non veg for an buffet dinner. Buffet Lunch is also available. Nice ambience and courteous staff. There were live counters for Pastas and Pizzas. Must visit place. Drinks are little expensive. Rest is all great.

Eighty Eight, the place needs no introduction as it has set standards for its food ! Chef here is really knowledgeable & guided us so well about history of Risottos that made understanding this particular dish so well ! So when we arrived the table was set with different veggies & meat with risottos grains, as the risottos were going to be freshly made in front of us 😍 Mushroom & Asparagus Risotto : This subtle tasting Risotto got its amazing flavours from fresh mushrooms & asparagus. The risotto won my heart in the first bite as this dish was definitely one of my comfort food ♥️ Seafood Risotto : Calamari, Betki Fish & Shrimps with whole wheat Risotto made the seafood Risotto so different from the ones I have tasted before. The fish made to perfection & tasted prefect with the other Risotto contents ! Mixed Vegetable Barley Risotto : Mushrooms, Zucchini, Peppers made in tomato sauce ,the barley risotto set healthy food goals for me ! This was as delightful as it was healthy 😋 All the flavours were amazingly blended together & this risotto was my favourite among all others ! Creamy Shrimp Risotto & Marcarpone Cheese : This was my first experience at having Shrimp Risotto & undoubtedly this was AMAZING ! This was really creamy & I found myself swiping the bowl clean because it was so creamy ! Overall experience : It was amazing experience to see risottos been freshly made in front of us & indulging in those risottos was a treat !
