GO(A)cross the wall
Thats the punchline of this place.
After enjoying several rounds of beer at Tavern at the Inn, we were in the mood for pub hopping. So at 10:45 in the night, we were on the way to Dublin at Windsor Manor, but at the last moment, we decided to check out Opus.
At the reception we were told they are having a DJ night and the entrance costs Rs.350 per head. But one of the friends in our group is a regular here so they said we can pay Rs.110 per head.
There is a live open kitchen which is wonderful to watch. The ambience is quite different than any other place I have been to as rarely do we find such vast space on a ground floor in Bangalore. The walls are all white, the seating area has tables near the walls and there is a large opening where gravel stones make the floor and leather cushion strips make the seating with stone tables placed a few inches above the ground. We sat with our legs stretched. And the waiter, dressed like a sailor, bought the menu, which is a paper cube wrapped around a candle inside a glass. Pretty neat and looks good too. We settled for two pints of KF and two plates of rice and Goan veg curry. The curry was really good.
The DJ was spinning some foot tapping numbers and without realizing we were bobbing our heads to the beat. Some fellows were attempting a dance wherever they were.
The music promptly stopped at 11.30 PM and we paid the bill and left.
Definitely coming back for a long evening of drinks and Goan cuisine.

BnB
Food is good, service is passable, ambience is nice. And it's one of the few places in town where one can get Goan sausage. But the place does give out an odd vibe. I could never place it, but after reading blr.bytes' review, may be it's the private party feel. Guess there are too many regulars there and I'm not one of them? Waiters are not friendly enough? Don't know. Anyway, I try and be in Opus every Thursday for Booze 'n' Brains. The way they are set up (A/V rounds, permanent score board, T-shirts, the obvious camaraderie BnB organizers and Opus owners share etc.), I doubt BnB will move out of there any time soon. So, though not by choice, I will continue being an Opus patron.

fun place, barring the insults
A few insults apart, it was a nice way to spend the evening - drinks, friends, a low pressure quiz.
Me (politely enough): Excuse me, I think we were charged for 4 beers when we actually only had 3
Waiter (Firmly): No sir, you had 4 beers.
Me (taken aback): I am sure we had only 3 beers. We each had one each, and then we shared one.
Waiter (more sternly): No sir. You had 4.
Me (speechless): ...
Proprietor (noticing the tension, stepping in to prevent a scene): It's okay, charge them for 3.
On the way out, I also heard the waiter telling an adjacent table "clear up" or "clear off" or some such... to inform them that it was closing time.
So mild insults apart, it was a pleasant evening.

Bah!
I like the place. And the ambiance. The food's not bad and the drinks are expensive, as is the food.
But sometimes you feel like you've crashed a private party. Quiz nights are fun, even if the quiz master gets the answers wrong at times.

Place: Nice, Food: Sucks.
Nice decor and ambiance. They also have a dance studio attached. The food is pretty bad and expensive - and so is the beer - one has a choice between RC and Castle - almost like the proverbial Devil and the Deep Blue Sea.
But its still a fun place - they have a Quiz night on Thursdays which is fun. And there is always something going on. Besides its the only place in the North-West of Bengaluru of this nature.
