The food was great and the restaurant was really beautiful! We really liked the paintings and historic pieces. Special thanks to Atul for taking the time to explain to us the stories behind each of those extraordinary artistic pieces! My guests were so happy and thanked me for picking Col Saab to host our work party.
No major negatives from me, but there’s was initially a confusion from the booking team regarding my confirmed booking time! I was asked to leave two hours earlier than my confirmed time (booked three weeks in advance). However, on the day of the event, the staff were helpful and moved us to a smaller private room so we stayed longer.
