What people say, in short
Many commenters say ITC Ratnadipa is good, and a couple point to its variety. One says its Sunday brunch beats the alternatives, and another finds the buffet strong on South Asian food and the Chinese restaurant good for Indo-Chinese dishes, though the rest is unremarkable. It is divisive: a few say it falls short of its reputation and one calls the buffet terrible.
