Nestled in the heart of BKC, Earth Cafe is a delightful haven that seamlessly blends aesthetic charm with a warm ambiance. My recent visit to this establishment left me with a nuanced perspective on its offerings, encompassing decor, cuisine, and service.
Ambiance and Decor: Earth Cafe boasts a serene ambiance, where earthy tones and tasteful decor create a welcoming environment. The use of natural elements and comfortable seating arrangements contribute to an atmosphere that encourages relaxation and conversation.
Culinary Exploration: Delving into the menu, I found a selection that harmonizes various flavors and culinary influences. While the food doesn't necessarily transcend the heights of traditional Indian cuisine, it possesses its own distinctive charm. I opted for the pasta, charred skewer, hummus platter, and refresh juice, and each dish exhibited a simplicity that resonated with a soulful quality.
Pasta: The pasta, though not groundbreaking, showcased a comforting texture and a well-balanced blend of flavors. It embraced simplicity, making it a suitable choice for those seeking a milder culinary experience.
Charred Skewer: The charred skewer demonstrated a skillful play of smoky flavors, with the charring imparting a delightful depth. While it may not cater to those craving intense spice, it appealed to my palate with its nuanced taste.
Hummus Platter: The hummus platter, a testament to the cafe's commitment to simplicity, offered a creamy and flavorful rendition. The accompaniments complemented the hummus well, creating a satisfying medley of tastes.
Refresh Juice: The refresh juice, a blend of invigorating flavors, served as a refreshing accompaniment to the meal. Its simplicity and natural ingredients contributed to the overall wholesome dining experience.
Suitability for Indian Cuisine Enthusiasts: It's essential to note that Earth Cafe's offerings may not resonate with those expecting a robust punch commonly associated with Indian cuisine. The flavors here are more subtle and cater to those who appreciate a gentler, more nuanced approach to culinary delights.
Service and Overall Experience: The service at Earth Cafe is commendable, with attentive staff contributing to a positive dining experience. The waitstaff's knowledge of the menu and their willingness to assist with recommendations added a personal touch to the evening.
In conclusion, Earth Cafe BKC offers a distinctive culinary journey, best suited for those seeking a tranquil environment and a departure from the bold flavors of traditional Indian cuisine. If you appreciate simplicity, a laid-back ambiance, and an exploration of flavors with a soulful charm, this establishment is well...
Read moreAbsolutely loved the interiors of this Earth cafe restaurant. One of the best vegan restaurants in Mumbai. The menu is extensive. You keep reminding yourself everything is vegan yet it all looks so tempting that you feel it's just any other cafe! We had Called for the below items - Broccoli & Peas Soup - Liked the soup. Broccoli’s taste was very evident. Avocado Orange quinoa (salad) - The salad has zesty and fresh flavours. The quinoa and avocado make up for the healthy quotient of the salad. Pad Thai (salad) - You get a whole platter of assorted condiments that can be added to the Pad Thai. The peanut sauce was excellent and overall I would highly recommend trying this salad. Falaffair (nibbles) - The delectable hummus with the falafel strips in between was simply mouthwatering. The pita bread sprinkled with zaatar was amazing. Truly a deconstructed falafel. Green goldmine sandwich - Loved the avocado filled sandwich. Walnut pesto spaghetti - The pasta was very well cooked. It was deliciously pesto rich! Risotto - called for the pink sauce Risotto which is like a blend of quinoa and risotto rice. The pink sauce gravy was so well seasoned, every bite of it was a burst of flavours. Cheese garlic flatbread - If you are a garlic and cheese combo lover then this is the dish for you to order! It is a perfect sharing appetiser. Khow Sway - Perfectly proportioned main course! With all the toppings, it was a flavourful dish. Veggilicious pizza - you cannot go wrong with this veggie filled pizza in tomato sauce. This is one of our all time favourites. Grinch - This is by far one of the best Pesto based pizzas that I’ve ever had! If you like everything green, then this pizza is definitely for you!
Below are the juices and cooler we ordered. Loved all of them! Each one of them was true it it’s description. Do try as many as you can. Refresh Lemon ginger cooler Pineapple & basil lemonade Orange dynamite Fresh lime water
Had the below 2 desserts and they were heavenly! chocolate cake - do tell them to warm it just for 10-12 seconds and serve. It just melts in your mouth. Blueberry panacotta
All in all, had a delightful lunch at this Vegan restaurant! It is a...
Read moreI don’t know why this cafe carries a 4.6 rating when the reality is far from it. Doesn’t even deserve a 3! We went there as a family of 4 on Saturday afternoon and were told that due to rush half of the things (like kimbap or keto cutlets) are not available due to heavy footfall of customers or will take 30-40 minutes of timing. I suggested to either update their menu separately for such shortcomings (which I still fail to understand how heavy influx of customers give them the opportunity to downgrade their services) or just don’t accept more customers at the cost of long waiting time and unavailability of food items. With such a poor start, we went ahead and ordered keto cutlets (still) and Margherita pizza along with pita platter. The pizza that was served was nothing but a toast lathered scarcely with marinara sauce and fragments of cheese here and there or better I shall call it rock solid base with next to no sauce and cheese. Upon letting the present manager know we were 1st given the excuse that it’s sourdough (as if I as a customer and avid eater) don’t even know what and how sourdough pizzas are and how they don’t compromise on the actual texture of the pizza base overall. But kuch toh justification dena tha in logon ko! The cutlets were burned (maybe their hatred for customers is so real that anyone who tries to give a strict genuine feedback that goes against their norm are served charred food as revenge?). All in all will not even recommend my enemies to such a pathetic low quality no ambience full of dirty hair lying around the cafe’s floor tasteless food in the name of ...
