⚠️ Disgusting and unhygienic – fungus and cockroaches inside the restaurant! ⚠️ Absolutely appalled by my recent experience at Arya Bhavan, Chembur

I have been visiting Arya Bhavan, Matunga for more than 10 years, and it has always been a trusted name for my family. That is why what we faced at the Chembur branch was shocking, disappointing, and downright unsafe.

The very first thing we noticed on sitting was decorations and flower garlands completely covered with fungus. This was not a one-day slip — it was clear these hadn’t been changed or cleaned in days. For a place that serves food, this is simply inexcusable.

As we waited for our order to arrive, the situation only got worse. We saw cockroaches crawling openly on the dining tables and wooden frames. One came right next to our plates while we were seated. This is the kind of sight that makes you lose trust immediately — if pests are visible in the dining area, what must the kitchen and storage look like?

When we brought it to the management’s attention, instead of showing concern, the so-called manager rudely admitted to the fungus issue and initially denied the cockroaches until a waiter himself confirmed it. What was most disturbing was the attitude — no apology, no accountability, just arrogance. To top it all, they demanded full payment even though our food was left untouched after witnessing this level of unhygiene.

This is not just about one bad evening — this is a serious public health risk. Food poisoning, contamination, and allergies are real dangers in such an environment. And the fact that they operate under the well-respected Arya Bhavan name makes it even worse, because loyal customers like us expect much higher standards.

I have already shared a reel of this experience to raise awareness, and the responses from others show this is not an isolated case. Several people have faced the same issues here.

⚠ My warning: Please do not risk your health at this outlet. Unless the management is held accountable and strict hygiene checks are done, this branch should not be considered safe for dining.

👉 I sincerely hope the Food and Drugs Department or higher authorities take strict action against this establishment before it causes serious harm to unsuspecting customers.

I wish I could give ratings in - Minus as it doesn't even...

🚨 FOOD SAFETY ALERT - ARYA BHAVAN CHEMBUR 🚨

Location: Eric House, 16th Road, Chembur Gaothan, Chembur, Mumbai-400071

Fellow food lovers, I feel compelled to share this shocking experience to protect your health and safety.

WHAT WE WITNESSED: ✗ Decorative flower garlands throughout the restaurant covered in VISIBLE FUNGUS - clearly not changed for many days ✗ Live COCKROACHES crawling around dining tables and wooden frames ✗ Cockroach spotted directly beside our food plates ✗ Management ACKNOWLEDGED the fungus issue with a dismissive attitude ✗ Despite these horrific conditions, management demanded full payment even though we couldn't eat

MANAGEMENT RESPONSE: The person claiming to be manager/owner: Rudely ADMITTED to the fungus problem Initially denied cockroach issue until waiter confirmed it Showed zero concern for customer health Aggressively demanded payment despite the unsanitary conditions

SERIOUS CONCERNS: If this is the condition of their dining area that customers can see, imagine the state of their kitchen, food storage, and utensil cleaning areas. This poses severe health risks including food poisoning and contamination.

This establishment is operating under the trusted ARYA BHAVAN name but clearly failing basic hygiene standards. The complete lack of accountability from management is equally disturbing.

Please SHARE this message to protect others. No one should risk their health at a restaurant with such appalling standards.

Stay safe, choose clean establishments.
