Best for Family

There is a carrom board by the window at Kaavu and a Jenga tower on most tables, and by the time our mains arrived the family beside us had a full tournament running. That single decision changes the whole room: nobody is rushing children, nobody is checking a phone. The staff clearly work here rather than pass through — the same server handled us start to finish and remembered, unprompted, that one of us had asked for no chilli.

Toscano runs on a mall floor and still manages to feel like a room rather than an outlet — soft banquettes, a wall of wine bottles, and tables large enough for a family of six, which is what most of them were holding on the Sunday we went. Highchairs appeared without being requested. The kitchen is steady rather than ambitious, and the pricing assumes you're here for the occasion as much as the food.
