Ananda reviews from:www.whoseview.ie and www.cheapeats.ie
and www.independent.ie
Ananda’s décor redefines customer’s expectations of Indian restaurants. The dining room features a number of striking design statements, which are quietly opulent while complementing the comfortable welcoming warmth of the design theme. The eye is drawn up to the glowingly rich, honey-coloured, water lily inspired chandeliers, while aubergine, lime and cerise velvet upholstery adds vibrancy and life to the seating. Throughout, snug spaces are created by the clever use of black textured string veils. Throughout, modern Indian paintings and motifs mix with textured European finishes, bringing east and west together to sing in harmony.
