Yahan tumne Ghee Roast nahi khaaya, toh kya khaaya?
It was when someone from town told us about the 'Ghee Roast' you get here that we ventured into this place at Andheri East.
At the first glance, most wouldn't enter it. Situated in between a bustling industrial area, this restaurant looks like a typical dim lit bar. Well that impression is pretty right, but walk upto the first floor and there you have your family restaurant.
The best time to visit? During a match. The cheering, applauding.... & abusing will get you a total match like feel !
On other days you will see families chilling, kids yelling, office goers sharing office gossip...you know.. the usual.
What to eat?
GHEE ROAST : A spicy manglorean gravy fulllllllll of Ghee! It has been over three years that we have been visiting this place, and the taste of Ghee Roast has not changed one bit! Their Chicken Ghee Roast is the 'Thhaannnggg' ... from the name itself we are sure you gathered that this is NOT for the calorie conscious... but on your cheat day... HAVE IT. For the vegetarians you also have a delicious mushroom ghee Roast and a super soft paneer ghee Roast.
Neer Dosa : The best thing to have with your ghee Roast ( Yes we are obsessed ) . Soft and delicious, this steamed accompaniment can save you a few calories :P
Chakli Schezwan : Chakli ( Self explanatory) ! Their schezwan sauce is made in-house and absolutely delicious. If you are lucky you might just get a yummy warm batch.
Chicken Roast: If you like masaaledaar khaana, you will love this. Dry and very spicy boneless chicken, Roasted and prepared in spices that can wake up every bit of your insides. Keep some lemon handy... taste great with a squeeze.
Ghassi : A delicious fish gravy best eaten with Neer Dosa.
Their kebabs are also a good bet. Don't miss out on their Pudina Kebabs.
Sol kadi : A chilled glass of this Kokum - coconut preparation is the ideal summer cool off.
Their Chinese is also quite good and their quality will keep make you happy for sure. Chicken Crispy and Paneer chilly are two of our favourites.
If you are ever confused on what to order, just call a waiter and he will help you out in no time. Their staff is very friendly and never shy away from shooing off any sleezy or ill mannered customers that make other...
ย ย ย Read moreThis is the first restaurant Iโve eaten at, in India. Iโm an American tourist.
I just wandered into this place, while walking down the street. No one spoke english, but they had an English menu.
I got the chicken tikka malsala, garlic naan, and hot and sour soup.
So good. Large portions, great pricing, and super fast service, but the best part is that it was all so delicious.
Iโm a hot and sour soup connoisseur, and the hot and sour soup here was so awesome.
I wish they had someone on staff that spoke English so I could communicate how happy I was, but that is just a desire, not a complaint.
If every restaurant in India has food and service like this, Iโm going to have to start adjust my star ratings and rating these...
ย ย ย Read moreIt's your typical family bar and restaurant that has mushroomed all over Mumbai. The USP of this place being the Malvani food that is served here. The food cost is a bit on the upper side while the drinks are typically priced. The food tastes good, if not exactly a comeback factor. The ambience is safe and well lit.

Hence don't expect much comfort here. The place is...
