Singh Sahib Gurgaon Review: Worth It for Families?
We went to Singh Sahib in Gurgaon for a mid-week family dinner, and by the time we reached the entrance, the restaurant was already close to full. This was a Wednesday, not a Saturday night. That told me two things immediately: the place had found an audience quickly, and coming without a reservation on the weekend would be a gamble.
Singh Sahib is a Punjabi and North Indian fine-dining restaurant on the lower-ground level of M3M 65th Avenue in Sector 65. I had taken the day off for an occasion, so this was not a quick meal squeezed between errands. Aryan came with us, we wanted a proper family dinner, and I wanted to see whether the food and service matched the royal-looking interiors.
My short verdict is yes. The food was good, the staff were polite and attentive, and the room had the kind of carefully decorated fine-dining feel that makes a family occasion feel different from a routine meal. It was not cheap. Our food and drinks for three people came to roughly ₹3,000 to ₹4,000, and individual dishes generally sat around the ₹400 to ₹500 range in my experience. Still, the bill did not feel unusually high for this style of Gurgaon restaurant.

The address and current opening hours should always be checked before travelling. Singh Sahib’s official website presently lists the Gurgaon restaurant at Unit R8, LG-21 to 24A, M3M 65th Avenue, Sector 65, and says it opens daily from 12:00 PM to 11:30 PM. Those are current published details, not something I timed independently during this dinner.
Reaching Singh Sahib inside 65th Avenue
The restaurant is not difficult to find once you understand the complex. M3M 65th Avenue has several restaurants and businesses spread across a long frontage. After parking, take the stairs down and turn towards the right-hand end. Bikanervala is the easiest landmark. Singh Sahib is beside it.
The restaurant’s exterior is hard to miss. It has a deep red façade, ornamental patterns, warm lamps and a large illuminated Singh Sahib sign with the line “Dine Like Royalty.” It looks more like a special-occasion restaurant than a casual dhaba, which is exactly the impression it is trying to create.
If you are using navigation, search for Singh Sahib at M3M 65th Avenue rather than relying only on Sector 65. Search results can sometimes mix similarly named restaurants or older listings. The official listing gives the unit numbers as R8, LG-21, 22, 23, 24 and 24A.
Parking was manageable, but weekends may be messy
Parking was not a serious problem during our visit. Cars could be parked along the front, and there was another dedicated area behind the complex. No parking ticket or charge was collected from us that evening. I would not treat that as a permanent promise because parking rules can change without warning.
The bigger issue is congestion. Even on a weekday, 65th Avenue had enough activity to make the approach feel busy. The spaces appeared to work on a first-come, first-served basis. On a crowded weekend, you may need to continue farther along the line of parked cars or use the rear area rather than expecting a space directly outside the restaurant.
Give yourself a little extra time if you have a reservation. Reaching Sector 65 on time and then spending ten minutes circling the complex is an avoidable start to dinner.
The entrance sets up the royal theme
Up close, the entrance makes the restaurant’s positioning very clear. The carved-looking door, maroon wall, ornamental plates, curved awning and amber lighting all lean into a royal Punjabi dining-room theme. It could easily have become excessive. In person, I thought it worked because the same visual idea continued inside.
A host was stationed outside, and the restaurant looked organised rather than chaotic. That matters when a place is nearly full. There is a difference between lively and badly managed, and this felt like the former.
What the dining room actually feels like
The dining room was the visual highlight for me. A large painted ceiling panel with trees, birds and floral details covered much of the room. Chandeliers, warm lighting, cushioned chairs, decorative arches and carved elements continued underneath it. The tables had enough space around them to feel comfortable even with several families dining nearby.
It gave us a proper fine-dining atmosphere without becoming silent or stiff. Aryan became unusually quiet after we arrived, which happens whenever he is busy taking in a new place. Families were eating around us, servers were moving continuously, and the restaurant still felt composed.
This is a good room for parents, couples, small celebrations and dinners with older family members. It does not feel designed around loud music or a bar-first crowd. Current booking listings describe it as family friendly, with indoor seating and large-group seating, which matched the atmosphere I saw.
My one practical caution is that a popular room also means less flexibility. A Wednesday evening was almost full, so a weekend walk-in could mean waiting or accepting whatever table is left. Book ahead if the table position matters to you.
What we ate, and what I can verify
The video records parts of the starters and main course, but the spoken transcript does not clearly name every dish. I do not want to manufacture a complete order from attractive plates. What I can verify from the visit is that we had a makhana-based starter, accompanying chaat-style portions, dal makhani and naan as part of the meal.
The official menu helps identify the dishes that visually match the food on our table. It lists Nadru Aur Makhane Ki Galouti, made with lotus stem and makhana, and Singh Sahib Signature Dahi Bhalla. The plates in the video closely resemble those menu items. Since the spoken audio is not perfectly clear on every name, I am treating that identification carefully rather than presenting it as a word-for-word order receipt.
The makhana starter was made for sharing
The starter came as six round patties on a large metal platter, garnished with pomegranate seeds, herbs and a little grated topping. Onion rings and lemon were served on the side. The presentation looked polished without making the portions absurdly small.
The official menu describes Nadru Aur Makhane Ki Galouti as a lotus-stem and makhana kebab infused with aromatic spices. That description fits what appeared on our table. It is the kind of starter that works well for a family because everyone can try one without committing to a heavy plate before the main course.
Our reaction was positive, though not theatrical. The food was good. The accompanying items were also fine. I would rather say that plainly than pretend every bite created a revelation. What mattered was that the starters felt properly prepared and suited the meal.
The chaat-style course added variety
Another wooden serving box held individual bowls of a yogurt-based chaat, topped with green and tamarind chutneys, pomegranate and a crisp element. Visually, it resembles the restaurant’s signature dahi bhalla listed on the official menu. Each person could take a bowl, which kept a shared chaat course neater than the usual single large plate.
This type of serving is useful in a family meal. Nobody has to fight for the last spoonful, and the chutneys remain balanced in each portion. It also matched the restaurant’s more formal approach to familiar North Indian food.
If you are deciding from the current menu, do not assume that the exact presentation or price will remain unchanged. Restaurants revise plating, quantities and menus. Use these photographs as a record of our visit and check the live menu for today’s details.
Dal makhani and naan were dependable
The dal makhani was good. It was not a dish I criticised during the visit, and it fitted the rest of the meal. The official menu currently calls it Shahi Dal Makhni, but menu naming and pricing should be checked when you book.
A small service detail stood out more than the dal’s description. The staff suggested bringing the naan one after another instead of placing every bread on the table at once. That way, we could eat each naan warm rather than watching the later pieces turn cold. It is an obvious idea once somebody says it, yet plenty of restaurants do not bother.
This also explains why the main course may appear to move slowly. Fresh naan does not arrive as one huge batch, and a proper main course needs some time. I noticed the pacing, but I would not call the service slow. The meal moved at the speed of a sit-down family dinner, not a quick-service counter.
How was the service at Singh Sahib Gurgaon?
Service was one of the strongest parts of our visit. The team was polite, professional and present without hovering awkwardly. Staff members checked our feedback during the meal, handled the table calmly and explained the timing of the breads.
There were moments when the pace felt a little measured. That was the only mild reservation, and even then it did not become a real problem. The restaurant was busy, our food was arriving fresh, and nobody at the table felt ignored. Good food makes a short wait easier to accept.
I also appreciated that the staff listened when we said we did not need another item for the baby. Family dining becomes tiring when every simple request needs repeating. Here, the interaction stayed courteous and straightforward.
How much does a family dinner cost?
Our complete food and drink bill for three people was roughly ₹3,000 to ₹4,000. That is the most useful budget figure I can give from this visit. It represents a full meal, not one starter and three glasses of water.
In my experience that evening, many individual items fell near the ₹400 to ₹500 range. The official menu now shows prices above and below that band, depending on the dish. Booking platforms currently estimate approximately ₹3,000 for two people, but those estimates can include a different order pattern from ours. Alcohol, taxes, service charges, offers and portion choices can move the final number considerably.
I would budget at least ₹1,200 to ₹1,500 per adult for a comfortable multi-course dinner without trying to calculate every bite. That is a planning estimate based on our ₹3,000 to ₹4,000 total for three, not a fixed package price. Check the current menu before making a decision around a strict budget.
Is Singh Sahib expensive for Gurgaon?
It is expensive compared with a casual neighbourhood Punjabi restaurant. It is not unusually expensive compared with polished family fine dining around Golf Course Extension Road. You are paying for the room, location, service and presentation as well as the food.
The value question therefore depends on the occasion. I would not come here for a cheap weekday dal and roti. I would consider it for a birthday, family dinner, guests visiting Gurgaon or a meal where we wanted comfortable seating and dependable service.
The restaurant delivered what its exterior promised during our visit. That is why the bill felt defensible. A royal theme with weak food would have irritated me. Here, the food and service carried their share of the experience.
Singh Sahib versus our earlier Angry Sardar visit
I had previously visited Angry Sardar in the same wider area, and that experience was disappointing. I did not like the food, and the service felt loose and poorly managed. Singh Sahib was noticeably better for us on both counts.
This is not a scientific comparison. The visits happened at different times, and restaurants can have good and bad nights. It is still a real comparison from my own meals. If I had to choose one for another family dinner based on those experiences, I would return to Singh Sahib.
That distinction is also why I would not call Singh Sahib perfect just because it won the comparison. The price is still meaningful, a reservation is almost necessary when busy, and service pacing may feel slower than a casual restaurant. It simply handled the fundamentals much better when we visited.
Would I recommend it for families?
Yes. Singh Sahib worked well for our family dinner because the room felt comfortable, the staff were professional, and the food was consistently good. It had enough occasion value to justify going out mid-week rather than ordering at home.
Families with a baby should still plan around their own routine. Ask for a corner or quieter table when reserving, carry whatever the child needs, and do not depend on the restaurant to supply food appropriate for a baby. We specifically declined extra outside food for Aryan at that stage of the evening.
The nearly full Wednesday room is the clearest reservation advice I can give. Call or book online before leaving, especially for Friday through Sunday. Current official information lists a reservation option and a Gurgaon contact number, but confirm it directly on the restaurant website because business details can change.
What worked, and what to keep in mind
The royal interior looks good in person, not only in photographs. The staff paid attention, the breads were paced so they stayed warm, parking was manageable during our visit, and the meal felt appropriate for a family occasion. The makhana starter, chaat-style bowls, dal makhani and naan formed a satisfying North Indian dinner.
The trade-offs are practical. It costs more than a casual meal, the complex may become congested on weekends, and a packed dining room can slow the rhythm slightly. Free parking was our experience on that Wednesday, not a guaranteed policy. The exact dishes and prices should be checked against the current menu.

My final take
Singh Sahib gave us one of the better family restaurant experiences I have had in this part of Gurgaon for a while. The interiors felt special, the food held up through the meal, and the service was thoughtful enough to bring naan gradually instead of letting it go cold.
I would return for another family occasion. I would also reserve first, arrive with a realistic ₹3,000 to ₹4,000 budget for three people, and allow extra parking time on a weekend.
