The almost mandatory 30 minute wait for a table is probably indicative of the quality of food served here. I have been to The Monk at least 5 times and each visit has been an unforgettable glutton's delight of an experience. Definitely one of the MUST GO places in Gurgaon.

Great casual ambiance serving lovely Chinese and pan Asian food. The helpings are very filling, good variety for both vegetarians and non veg. They also serve soups, just in case you ain't in a mood for soup ask for fresh draft beer......... If you going for lunch, try to go earlier as the place gets crowded and you may be... More

The cocktails are always delicious. Go for the burnt garlic soup and an array of starters, one more tasty than the last.

The monk, is the place to stop by if u are looking for authentic Chinese and Pan - Asian cuisine. The best part is their consistency, till date I have never had a less than average meal, they do not use MSG and ajinomoto, thanks to which people like me who are allergic to both can enjoy an occasional oriental...

I had heard rave reviews about this restaurant, but I wasnt exactly impressed. Neither was the food outstanding nor was the over all service or the ambiance. We had to wait for over an hour to finally be able to get a table - which we were told would not take more than 15 mins, nonetheless, once at the table,... More

Been coming to the monk for a couple of years now. But off late (last 3 occasions over the last 4 months) the service time has been atrocious. It is an indicator of the popularity - the place always has a waiting and they don't take reservations - but if they cannot cope with its success, they're bound to go... More

The Lahksa soup is nowhere close to the real thing. Ambience is something new - open feel within a mall/hotel. Worht trying out once though.

Great food and a courteous staff more than makes up for the average ambience and away location of this restaurant.

Food was good. They took 20 minutes to serve desserts. The high chair given to small children was greasy and dirty.
