Chhotu's Kitchen — Restaurant in Mumbai

Old school Indo-Chinese eatery serving delicious authentic 90s style gaadi-Chinese!

Chhotu’s kitchen is a trip through time. Went for dinner here with a cousin and found myself almost nostalgic.

Folks from the 90s will distinctly remember the taste of Indo-Chinese sold in the gaadis. Their unique smoky flavour was inimitable. You will not find this taste in a restaurant.

We ordered the Manchow soup, with a Manchurian starter and Triple Schezwan noodles. Everything was perfect flavour-wise. They even give generous amounts of fried noodles and freshly made Schezwan sauce as a side dish much like the old days.

Seating is a bit limited. If you prefer standing they even have a gaadi outside. Service is fast as well. And the prices don’t burn a hole through your pocket!

A definite visit for Indo-Chinese...

I have always loved CHOTU's for its authentic indo-chinese taste. But today, I hate to do this but I have to give single ⭐. And I would no longer recommend especially if you are coming with kids.

Me and my spouse went for the OG Veg triple rice, Manchow soup and Veg Manchurian Dry and ordered thumbs up.

We initially had the Manchow soup and later came the other dishes. UNFORTUNATELY, we saw a COCKROACH in our Veg Manchurian dry dish and we complained about it and we simply left.

We paid for soup and thumbs up. Thats it. Chotus had been my favourite since my college days and hate to do this but I would no longer come and eat here or atleast until they get there hygeine straight.

Should have taken photos...

Chhotus Kitchen A perfect joint for some quick, spicy and mouth watering chinese food. The place boasts to be the best chinese joint in Borivali and lives upto its expectations. The offerings of half plate in a copious quantity is what makes it unique.

Frame 1- Chicken Lollipop Gravy This has to be their USP. With 6 pieces of chicken drumsticks fried and placed in a pool of schezwan. The dish is spicy, crispy and makes a must try.

Paneer chilly The standard paneer chilly made in a desi manner. The paneer were tender and masalas blend as per perfection.

Fried noodles with schezwan also popularly known as Time-pass makes waiting time here even more...
