Unlike the mainstream techniques to serve food, your order here is served via robots. Ruby and Diva, as they have been named, are the robot-waiters of this restaurant. With the charge of 2-3 hours, these robots can function for an entire day.

'Welcome to The Yellow House, I am Ruby', is how the robo Ruby will welcome you, once you enter the restaurant. Controlled by tabs and magnets, these robots will reach your table to offer a menu and serve food. The order is still taken by the waiters present in the restaurant. However, the robots are accustomed with codes and sensors to move on the designed track smoothly.

The menu has to offer multi-cuisine like Indian, Chinese, Italian, Mexican and Lebanese. With interesting names like Robo Samosa, Rubi Ki Pasand, and their amusing description mentioned right below the dish's name, urges the customers to order and try out new stuff. The robots get back to their platform once you tap the exit button present on their arms. The robots are only used to serve food and not beverages, as there are high chances that they could spill the drinks on the floor while moving.
