No Storm this: it's only a mild wind. It's a good option for a quiet dinner, where the conversation is more important than the food. The food is somewhat incidental here. Don't get too impressed by the hoopla about European, Italian and Indian cuisines. You could try the Non-Veg Platter, Chicken Lababdar, Rogan Josh, Murgh Potli, Raan Sikandari, Murgh Korma, Grilled Fish Lemon Butter Sauce, Matar Mushroom and Dal Storm. Martaban Gosht, Penne Arrabiata and Malabari Prawns are good. Come out quietly: this Storm can't take you by Storm.

I've been to Storm couple of times, its the same problems always, firstly this place is dead as it can be till 7pm, when the local area crowd cums, but it doesn't mean its a good select crowd. Even situated in a posh colony area, I've seen its crowd to be really cheap and bad.
Its Manager thinks of himself to be the sole owner of the place, he runs things at his discretion and the rules change from people to people. Girls sometimes are given over priority and some times the waiters/ staff misbehave with them on the say of the Manager.
The same goes with the discount at this place, that changes from person to person and generally 20% is offered that lands up at Rs. 300 in Rs 1500(without taxes ie Vat 20%, Vat 12.5%, others 2% + 1%) .
"Storm" Restobar has nothing great in its menu, the same old stuff that u get at evry place and some of the preparation and food quality is really bad.
I've tried most of the menu trust me the north indian and starters are flat and tasteless, other many dishes suck too. The only eatable thing I found was the pasta.
Cuming to drinks again ntn great nor made by a proper bartender, just outta quantity mixes are done that are either too sour or too sweet e.g. the Fruit Punch if u've tried.
Everything is over priced as compared to the quality, quantity and taste. The Place formation is another disaster, it has an open disc area joined with the main eating place, vich is so bad that will the crowd is dancing on the floor in the disc, u'll notice families having dinners in the seating and children running all arnd from the eatery to disc in circles.
Worst place to throw corporate parties, get togthers or birthdays as they only book part area vich again is costly and no privacy due to the combined disco cum dining.
Parking again is a major problem here, thou it has valet parking but that to u've got to drop the car on a running road in a rush therefore no proper outside space.
The owner mostly blocks the Restobar full for his private parties and public is not allowed inside that time vich is completely against law for public serving businesses.
In the night its the most unsafe place as its the parking spot of all the Autos and if u don't have a car ur doomed.
Overall not a place worth spending a dime, the Dj isn't great they keep changing, comparing to the competitors arnd in kailash colony and hauz khas village i.e. Halfway House (mornings), Café 27, Cosmo Live (evenings), Verve (gr8 space) and Beer Café (combos and hangout) gk mkt all at the same price range but gr8 discounts n happy hours.
Some have a fully customized menu food n drinks that u'll love and my fav. is TC (aurobindo) aftr 7pm.
