With its stunning fit-outs, inviting ambience, and friendly staff, it promises to be a unique dining experience, featuring live food prepared straight from the Tandoor – a large vase-shaped oven, usually made of clay – right before diners’ eyes.
The vision behind Drunk’n Monkey has always been to create a welcoming space for all to come together and make lasting memories.
