Amigo strikes you with its sense of space and delectable Mediterranean fare

Long, long ago when fewer mortals roamed Delhi, restaurants had more 'legroom'.u00a0 Today, the tables snuggle so close to each other that you almost end up joining the banter in the next table you have been so patiently eavesdropping on.

So when you enter Amigo, the first thing that strikes you is the feeling of space. Spread over a carpet area of 3,00 sq ft, the fine-dining restaurant-cum-lounge bar has 40 covers. The strategic positioning of the tables adds to the feel of space. The bar tables too have been placed in such a manner that you are close enough to engage the bartender's attention but simultaneously have some privacy.

DOWN 'EM
Amigo boasts of a well-stocked bar. So you can order 10-year-old single malts like a Laphroaig or a 12-year old Glevlivet transporting you to northern Scotland. But then, the Talisker or the Macallan that were mentioned in the menu were not available.
For cocktails, check out Attack. Outlandish as the name might sound, this one's a mix of tequila, triple sec, vermouth and lime juice. It was decent but nothing phenomenal. You could also go for Passion, whipped up with tequila, triple sec, lime juice and cranberry juice.
