Deepa, This is indeed what they have named this and every other restaurant in the chain [I presume there is a chain, since they have an outlet even in Hyderabad] after; at various points during dinnertime you will see servers walking around with platters heated by tiny braziers attached underneath, as well as hookahs. Other lighting is negligible. *g* The stairs are unimprovable on grounds of dimness, dankness and winding slipperiness also. A good time was had by all.
-- or so I hope; Mumbaikars are as fond of talking about trains as others are of weather, so at some point of time the conversation picked up on train travel in the city and only occasionally veered off-track thence. I am not sure this was what Cory was expecting to spend much of dinner mulling over. I think Devdas has photos. The food was plentiful. Y'all should have been there. Supriya.
