The high undulating ceiling at Siaa and its rustic bare wood interiors complement its Indian, European and Oriental offerings. There's something warm and unique about Siaa which means 'Pure'. The openness at Siaa is accentuated by the live kitchen, multi-level seating and soft music. By day it's a brightly lit, cheerful restaurant and by night it slips into a much more stylish avatar. The Dum Nalli Gosht has people who swear it's the best they've ever had. The Tandoori Broccoli is another interesting favourite. The Kori Gassi, the Prawn Balchao, the Dungar Batayer make up the list of the other 'have tos'. While the Singara Kofta and the Chilly Cheese Chicken Tempura prove that meandering off the main menus, often has some delicious rewards.

The wooden ambience of Siaa restaurant makes feel warm and comfortable from inside. The menu has Indian, Oriental, European cuisine and the chef does justice to the dishes. Enjoy dining with soft soothing music and do not forget to order Dum Nalli Gosht and any of the prawn dishes.
Very delicious and serene restaurant to come and dine with your loved one.

Hello fellow diners,
I visited this place with my family on the 3rd of Feb 2012 to celebrate a special occasion. I didn't bother with a review because the place was unexceptional, barring the three level seating and the tall door at the entrance.
Today I have a reason to write this review.We had paid the restaurant bill using a Citibank Credit Card.The card offered (and continues to offer) a 15% discount on all food and beverages at Siaa among others- https://www.online.citibank.co.in/card-offers/credit-card-hyderabad.htm.The bill arrived without any discount.It was my first time with a credit card offering a discount at a restaurant and I kept quiet assuming the discount was offered by Citibank and would reflect in their credit card statement.
The Citi cc bill arrived today and there was no discount.I called Siaa today and asked for the Manager.This is what he had to say:
1. I should have asked for the discount !
2. The steward wouldn't be aware of such things until informed by me.
3. He can offer me the discount the next time I visit ( As though he is offering me a concession! I am entitled to it!)
4. Nothing can be done now !
I've learnt my lesson, but Siaa's message is this: 'Even if you are entitled to discounts and/or other offers, we will remain silent unless you ask for it'.
When in a tie up with a Bank offering special discounts for their Credit and/or Debit card users, a quality place would offer the discount automatically when the eligible card is used!
And in a situation like mine, the least you could have done was to offer an apology if not along with something to make up for the dishonoured discount.
