Food Review- Jimi's, Koramangala

Since I know the owner personally, I can tell you that Jimis started off with the idea of a coffee shop-Qwikys. Over time of course he realised that the liquor business is much more lucrative and faced with the opportunity, an arrangement was made and Jimis was conceptualised.
Over the years Jimis has expanded to other locations, but this was my first visit to the Koramangala branch. 
They are now spread across 3 floors, the ground floor has the bar counter and few tables as well. A couple of wooden tables and chairs still symbolise qwikys. The first floor has some more seating and also the smoking section, and above that is a semi open rooftop garden bar and this is where we sat.

This section has a very nice decor and relaxed ambiance. The road below is noisy but doesn't disturb you much. The seating is well spaced out and music isn't too loud so you can have a conversation while enjoying a drink. 
Their drinks selection is extensive but we stuck to the basic- draught beer. They serve fosters and it was nice nd fresh. 
To go along with it we ordered peanut masala, chicken tikka and mushroom pepper fry. The mushroom was not even on the menu but we asked the waiter if it can be made and he was happy to get it made for us. Infact staff generally is friendly and always readily available. 
Regarding the food im happy to tell you that it was not the average pub grub, and the quality was far superior. The chicken was soo tender and marinated perfectly, mushroom dish was also prepared very nicely.
We were quite happy and had a very good time here.
The bill including 4 pitchers came up to 2600 which is not a bad deal at all.
What's even better, they have happy hours from Monday to Thursdays all day long!
Cheers to that.

Rating- 4/5
