Jonathan's Kitchen

This is a very good place to have team lunch for corporates and families. Its a venture of Marriott hotels. The menu has lot of Non veg and sea food items. Lunch buffet costs 1200 per persons. Ambience is calm and cool.

Descent buffet, great for non-veg starters, but veg starters, Desserts and main-course could have been better.

I have visited JK at least 5 times in the last 6 months and the experience has been good. My last visit was couple of days back when I dropped in to watch the IPL. They have a buffer option along with a la carte option. If you opt for A La Carte you can sit inside their bar area which is also known as Koma. I had a few beers along with some starters (peri peri fries, fish and chips, chicken steak) and the food was quite good. The parking is a hassle free experience (valet parking) and the staff is courteous. They do take some time to get the order to the table especially on the weekends however that is quite okay considering the rush. Would be visiting soon again.

Most of the food items were not available. But available food has great quality and quantity.

Very very tasty food and the ambience was preety nice and wide range of dishes. Very nice to come with family and friends. Good service with good food quality. The desserts are highly recommended

Visited with family members for dinner. The food was good and a few dishes took longer than expected. The ambience was nice as well, we tried a range of dishes I would definitely recommend the pepperoni Pizza & Pork ribs. Other dishes were as expected and nothing extraordinary.

Not recommended went for buffet on weekend and the food was the worst and not even icecream was there for deserts and no proper response from the people who serves the food overall I don't recommend the place and buffet food was not even warm and once after food completes in the bowl they don't even refill it overall very very bad experience and for this they even charge heavily.

A Memorable Dining Experience, Exceptional Staff, Delectable Food, and Cozy Ambience
I recently had the pleasure of dining at a charming restaurant that left an indelible impression on me. From the moment I walked through the door, I was greeted by the warm and friendly staff, setting the tone for a truly delightful evening. Their exceptional service went above and beyond my expectations, making me feel like a valued guest throughout my visit.
The menu boasted an array of mouthwatering dishes, and each plate surpassed my culinary desires. The chef's expertise was evident in every bite, with flavors that danced on my palate and left me craving more. The attention to detail in presentation was commendable, turning each dish into a work of art. Whether you're a meat lover, a vegetarian, or a fan of exotic flavors, this restaurant caters to all tastes with finesse.
The ambience of the restaurant was a perfect blend of elegance and comfort. The stylish decor, soft lighting, and tasteful music created a relaxing and intimate atmosphere. The attention given to creating a cozy space where patrons could unwind and enjoy their meals was commendable.
The staff's commitment to providing exceptional service extended to the promptness and attentiveness displayed throughout the evening. They anticipated my needs and were always ready to offer recommendations or answer any questions. Their passion for their work shone through, adding an extra layer of enjoyment to my dining experience.
Parking can often be a hassle in bustling areas, but the restaurant's parking facility was convenient and well-organized.
I wholeheartedly recommend this establishment to anyone seeking a memorable dining experience.
Cheers!

Everything about this place sucks. The atmosphere feels nothing like that of a restaurant at a five star hotel. There was water leaking from the AC duct above my table. The food was bland. A colleague of mine even found a metal pin in the pastry. Not worth it

Caution for take away order form this place, bill amount and package contents doesn’t match, bitter experience is that 500 worth quantity food package missed out of a 4.6k worth bill, more than 10% looted here. Usually we have a notion that highly end restaurants don’t steal, Advise, pl check the contents before walking away from this place with take away order.

We ordered a take away delivery through Zomato. And found the food very authentic. Plus the packaging was very much sustainable since it adhered to the one time use packaging norms using molded pulp.
Will surely order for more and probably visit too with family

Best place to have the bestest lasagna in the city, with your choice of alcohol and they also have choices in steak. Very good hospitality and service is prompt!

One of the posh experience here
One can have any cuisine possible
Food taste is great with great staffs behavior

Visited the restaurant during my business trip to Hyderabad and what a delight it was
Excellent food, ambiance was lively, seating was comfortable. The place was neat and clean.
Just loved it here.
Tempura sushi rolls were delicious
Shall be visiting soon.

I've ordered chicken lollipops and some salad. Chicken lollipops were terrible, outside was ok, but the chicken was atleast a day or two before. If someone can direct me of how to register a complaint with food inspector that will be really great

Went for lunch on 23 August afternoon for a business meet. Heard about The place and was expecting amazing food.
Ordered mostly Indian food although they have got other cuisines.
First, the taste was awful. Second the after taste was even worse. Service is little tardy.
Benefit of doubt, may be the chef isn’t made for Indian cuisine.
Ordered few starters and few mains. Wish I could say one of them was good or better.
Wouldn’t be even thinking of this place for the near future.

Loved the food here. We got a table at the far end outside, so service was little difficult to come by.

Overall Ambience and vibes were great but the food was even better. We tried quite a few varieties of fish and we loved it all!

We went for a Sunday Brunch.

The food spread was good and lots of desserts options. The taste was good, but nothing stands out.

The ambience is fine, however it was crowded. Likely because of that, we had to wait significant time or follow up for the live counter items to arrive at table. By the time the breads has come, we finished the main course.

Prior table booking is required.

Food is tasty.
Starters: Veg is delicious, non veg- only Mexican chicken & fish is good.
Main course: okay, limited verities
Desserts: more verities than other two & tasty.

Good place for tasty food and service in decent price. A pleasnt surprise. Lots of food varieties. Would be packed during weekends.

Quality and tasty food. Authentic flavours. They can even customize dishes as per your request.

Neatly maintained. Will visit again sometime

Perhaps my worst experience dining in at a reputed restaurant, this one serves 5 tiny pieces of ravioli in a ravioli pasta dish and a burger with a very tasteless patty. Also ordered sesame lotus stems and thise were so thick and hard that anyone with the mildest tooth ache could've had to visited the dentist next day! Also two of us dining were never served food items together while we placed the order at once!

Food and service were fine, did not like the ambience though! It was average. Simply put, I wouldn't drive that far for this restaurant again!

Herb chicken from the grill was good
Tiger prawns from the grill were super tasty too but was semi cooked which shouldn't be coz it was from the grill section
Rara mutton on the main course was awesome too
Nalli rogan josh was utterly disappointing, it didn't taste like a mutton gravy at all

My review of Jonathan’s Kitchen is long due. It is one of our favourite restaurants and our regular haunt. Almost everything on the menu is made to perfection. The food is delectable and the portion sizes are generous. They serve delicacies from across the globe, and the ambience is warm and comfortable.

Their must try dishes are Alfredo Pasta with Grilled Vegetables, Primavera Pizza, Hummus with Pita? , Vegetable Caesar Salad, Butter Garlic Prawns, Dragon Prawns and Malai Kofta Curry, Fruit Punch and Virgin Mojito to name a few. They are good at their Chinese dishes too, but I will not recommend their Sushi. They really need to excel at this.

Only the service needs to be a tad proactive. You always need to call the waiter several times to order the food, to remind during a delay and to even get your check. And they will just not look into your eye when you have your hand raised to attract their attention, which gets a little annoying at times. All this actually delays the entire process, which is a point to be considered when you visit them. I’ve noticed that they also lack the number of waiters required, so that explains it all.

One more thing that I would like to point out is the size of their tables. Some of their serving dishes are broad, and so they don’t fit very well together on the table. The waiters just appear hurriedly with their hands full and then we find ourselves reaching out clumsily in efforts to making room at the table for them to place the dishes. Due to this, they are always inclined to empty the entire content onto our plates so they can take away the serving dishes. It would be nice if these points were looked into, otherwise this place certainly deserves 5 stars for the food.

Buffet menu. Large spread in veg and non veg items. What I liked was items were from different cuisine such Mediterranean, Asian, India, Chinese and Japanese. Desserts were yummy. Chicken starters were delicious. There was a live band when we visited. I highly recommend.

Eating delicious food with live music is so awesome.here food is really delicious with full menu off andhra & telangana &the taste was extremely good, but the bill was a bit on the heavier side.completely satisfied with the taste and quality of the food.especially ambience is awesome.the amount which we paid worthable for the ambience and music & live music. I really suggest this for family, friends and any parties.

This restaurant is associated with a global brand like Marriot, but it doesn't live up to the expectations. Following are the reasons why one should not visit this place considering the fact that there are ample good options near by:
1) The response of the staff, their service is very biased towards the customers who opt for a budget friendly option like a buffet compared to those who order a la carte. Clearly this is evidence of customer profiling, the a la carte customers end up spending more that that of a buffet hence get good service etc.
2) Unlike a typical buffet any where in the world, one expects the food on offer in a buffet to be a wide variety and of adequate quantities, this place offers a very small range of items in the buffet in very limited quantities. If you find any item empty, the staff here will just not bother of refilling it despite requests, you will just end up getting blank response from the staff.
The only reason why i gave two stars is that I perceived the place to be hygienic.

Those looking at Italian, Mexican, Chinese cuisine it's fantastic. Enjoyed food. Needs prior booking for Dine-in. Decent prices.excellent service by staff.

The Italian food here is good. The tomato mozzarella calzone was great. The Indian food on the other hand was very average. Not flavourful.

Ordered different cuisine from Jonathan's kitchen, food is decent. Packaging is good mentioning the temp of every one who handled it. Best restaurant in financial district when it comes to quality food and from hygienic kitchen.

Valet parking is available. Seating indoor and outdoor is possible. Live music is played which creates a good ambience. Seating is comfortable and table positioning is excellent. Staff is aware of the various dishes served and will assist you with the menu. But due to lack of sufficient staff for such a big restaurant they are unable to handle all their guests at the same time. It took ages to provide us with a menu card and some more time to take the order. However once the order was placed food was served in real time. But again they are very slow in clearing the table and provide the bill. Dine out payment is accepted. We ordered eight treasure soup - chicken and chicken manchow soup, Ravioli, Risotto, Mexican Chicken Lasagna and chicken Sichuan noodles. All dishes were delicious and served in style. The ambience and table positioning makes you feel very comfortable and you can enjoy your meal at leisure and peace. The staff is super courteous once you have their attention. Will love to come here again.

Highly recommended! Ambience, seating, food quality, taste, service, portion sizes are all great. I was quite impressed.

IMO it's a bit expensive on the pocket but then when it comes to food,
Chicken Soup was fine
The starters were just OKAY leaving cheese balls - Veg and deep fried fish - Non veg rest all were not upto the mark.
To be honest never felt like trying any of the starters again.
Coming to Main course the chicken biryaani was average same goes for the chicken gravy n mutton gravy as well.
Last but not the least Desserts most of them are oversweetened and I couldn't get it down my throat.
Overall the experience was average.

Service and Value for Money:

Service in this restaurant is just okay. They are taking so much time for on table delivery items like Pizzas and Pastas. Though the food is good we felt that the restaurant is too expensive for the variety of food and ambience they offer. But still you can give it a try and have a new experience.

Overall verdict:

Ambience - 3/5
Food (Buffet) - 5/5
Service - 4/5
Value for money - 4/5

It's a buffet style restaurant, had visited this for a team Lunch, the ambience is good, area is well maintained, restrooms are clean, now coming to the food review, they have limited numbe of both Veg and Non veg starters, its like negligible, starters are not that much good great, and were cold, these guys might not have heard of heating apparatus, only few items were hot, they served pizza, which was a thin crust with only cheeze and crust nothing else, atleast have some onions and tomatoes on them. Only mutton gravy was good, and other main course was ok. Curd rice was salty, and desert were good. It was as if buffet was for desert not for other food items.

Extremely poor service. Not up to the mark. Buffet don't have much variety. Price is only little cheap than comparative star hotels. But overall not worth a penny.

Since it is attached to holiday inn don't expect the regular Indian spice level. Ambience, crowd, food & service quality, all excellent! By slightly pricey

Great food and great service. Perhaps one of the best buffet spreads in the city. Very accommodating service staff, specially for party bookings. Worth multiple visits

Delicious starters and desserts. Main course is good. Overall nice experience. Outdoor seating is also nice. Nice place to have corporate lunch/dinner for bigger teams. We are about 120+ team had lunch here without any issue of crowdy feel.

Food is good, so as the ambience. Spacious enough for corporate parties. We had team lunch here. I specially loved the sea food dishes, curd was awesome and lassi too. My suggestion is to go for it and you definitely will enjoy.

Maybe (just maybe) we ordered the wrong food. Food: We ordered "Chicken - Penne Pasta", which was good, then "Chicken Tikka Pizza", which tasted like chicken tikka with pickle dip, I didn't liked the taste. And for the dessert we ordered "Philadelphia baked cheese cake", it was nothing like plain cheese cake nor did i like the taste of it. PS. - Actually we requested the waiter for suggesting us best thing in Pizza and best thing in Pasta, which went terrible. It is better to place order by reading the contents of the food. Ambiance: It was good. Rectangle shaped place with large glass window to its one side whose view leads to another restaurant. Wait time: It was Friday afternoon. There were very few people around when we came. But was occupied soon with people having reservations for buffet. There was a long wait time (30 mins) for food arrival.

The food is not consistent. It was great the last time we visited for lunch. However dinner this time was a little disappointing. Food in the buffet wasn't warm. Wasnt refilled regularly. The staff was good and the ambience is good too.

I went in for buffet lunch and did not like the food. The starters were not great. Indian breads were very hard and cold served. Pizzas did not have any toppings. Main course was equally dissapointing.

There wes variety in desserts and it was the only bright side to look onto.

If you are planning for team lunch try out some other restaurants in the same budget range.

It's a nice restaurant. There were only limited dishes. But they serve pizza there first. Its a bit far. The ambience was good and the staff was good. Not highly recommended for veggies. My experience was ok.

Jonathan's Kitchen is one of Hyderabad's more reliable restaurants. I was staying at Holiday Inn for two nights and both nights I chose to have dinner at JK. The first night it was absurdly noisy with some team shenanigans going on and some 20 noisy folks wearing the same tee shirt taking pictures, shouting, exulting, and generally being a nuisance.

The restaurant still managed other diners reasonably well. The Pan Asian section on the menu is particularly appealing. The soups are nice.

The second night was surprisingly quiet though a couple pesky kids running around the restaurant were a source of annoyance. The serving staff is good but they need to gently tell diners that kids cannot be running around the place.

Haven't dined but when we did go to eat, only buffet was available and suggested. When enquired on ala carte, it was suggested that it can take one hour and again buffet was suggested.
Even the buffet options were routine. The same old biriyani, soups, paneer starters etc. Nothing much from other cuisines. So had to walk out. Others were having a good time with outdoor music etc but didn't like my experience.

Not many varieties to the likes of Indian taste, but can be liked by people who prefer to japanese Sushi and Thai food. Lamb dum Biryani is good and chicken legs in Punjabi tandoor style is very much enjoyable. Ambience is fine although with small space. Try out their dinner buffet only available on Friday and Saturday.

I have near actually been in the restaurant but I always order food from them through swiggy and it's a great experience.they serve great quality food and of course it's tasty.i am sad because they don't serve tres leach desert anymore that was my favourite dessert of all time.please bring it back to the menu ASAP.
