It was a great experience. Food was delicious especially Paneer Kali mirch and Sesame leaf chaat.

Avoid this restaurant if you are a vegetarian, it was our anniversary I reserved a table, it was cold outside , they couldn't accommodate us inside so had to opt for an outside table. Vegetarian food we had sesame leaf and some vegetarian kebab or tiki, along with naan and paneer kali mirch . None of them tasted extraordinary. Value for money also very less. Doesn't deserve any Michelin star.

Every dish was more delicious than the next. Can't recommend this place enough and will definitely return.

Ettan has decent selection of food. Portions are small but the place isnt too expensive so you can definitely order multiple items. Service was very quick and staff was good and friendly. We ordered samosa and kebab for snacks both were good. For main course we ordered trout and paneer kalimirch, both were in decent quantity and tasted good. From all reviews heard and read, I expected a little more overall from experience.

Brunch menu is improved with few new additions. This is good and welcome move. Service is always nice and warm.

The interior is inviting, cozy, and very pretty. The staff were attentive, expedient, and friendly. There were delicious classic Indian dishes and amazing dishes not usually found at other restaurants. The cocktails were mid at best. They came quickly, but they did not have a good menu selection for them, nor did it seem that I would trust them with a more complex drink should I want to ask. Overall a great place to eat, I would come back. Just go to a nice place to drink before or after.

Elegant food and presentation. Outdoor seating is comfortable and more quiet than indoors. Convenient parking underground. Service was good. Portions were relatively small. Price was $$$$.

Sanjay

It was Diwali brunch may be which resulted in lower quality of food and service. Otherwise this is one of my favorite places.

Keerthana

We had a really good experience overall- the staff, from the waiters to the manager, were very friendly and the service was great. The only reason for the -1 star is that the portion sizes felt too small for the price being charged.

Naval

Our experience was very good. The service, ambience and the food was excellent!! Love this restaurant!!

Vaishali

The Diwali non vegeterian menu for 2025 was extremely dairy heavy and consisted of only one non vegeterian dish. Even the vegeterian dishes were the run of the mill dishes that can be found in any indian reataurant. The value of the meal was not justified as I can have the same dishes in any other budget indian restaurant. Would have appreciated if there were more non vegeterian dishes for the non veg thali and if the vegeterian dishes could have been something other than the standard fare found in other places. Also, would have been helpful if the menu for the Diwali special was published beforehand, so that the customer could have made an informed decision.

Divya

While I absolutely love Ettan and regularly go there, I wouldn't recommend the Diwali brunch. The selection of dishes and portion sizes didn't justify the amount. I would go back for my usual favorites from the a la carte menu.

Prashanth

The coffee with the dessert does not provide enough strength and depth to help you cut through the dessert and can be better. The food is new and amazing but is expensive on the pocket. The ambiance and service is top notch.

Ritu

We ordered the sesame chaat, pani puri, kerala fried chicken, and jackfruit biryani. All dishes were delicious, but my personal favorite was the jackfruit biryani. The pani puri was the most interesting, the flavors were unexpected but worked well. Our total came out to about $100 which isn't bad but would have been closer to $150 had we gotten drinks and dessert. The service was friendly and efficient, the ambiance is excellent.

Excellent, innovative dishes, impeccable service. The terrace was beautifully quiet and serene, perfect for dinner conversation.
