Geoffrey's — Restaurant in Mumbai

Hotel Marine Plaza the iconic beauty takes immense pride in standing tall for 25 glorious years at the scenic Marine Drive area of Mumbai overlooking the limitless Arabian sea .

I consider myself sheer lucky to recently visit Geoffreysmumbai located at the ground level of this hotel which welcomes you with a jaw dropping display of wines & delectables desserts right at the entry which you simply cannot miss .

The British era inspired ambiance is WARM with dim lights , wooden furniture in deep hues of brown , interesting artifacts & innumerable wall art .

The designer floral floor carpets add to the sheer grandeur of this opulent place having a rectangular fully loaded bar right in the center .

Ideal to spend quiet & undisturbed quality time for a romantic date or memorable moments with those who matter far away from the loud head banging music & over crowded eateries .

The elegance & class of this place is one of a kind & simply unmatchable with flawless hospitality in terms of service , quality of food & drinks not for forget the impeccable presentation which leaves you awestruck .

They have a an entire wall at the bar dedicated to Gin & Tonic , the finest imported from all over the globe to give their patrons every reason to come back again with exotic creations of fruity , floral & exciting cocktail creations .

I met a few patrons here who were enjoying their drinks & while chatting with them they informed us that they visit this pub regularly as the comfortable vibes they get are supreme & value for money in all respect .

We tried the classic veg cheese pizza which was divine . Baked to absolute perfection every bite was sheer ecstasy . Also the mushroom vol au vent simply melted in the mouth served piping hot .The freshly made tiramisu & baked cheese cake are of top notche quality being simply irresistable . Loved every single dish .

The service is flawless ! There servers are genuinely friendly & polite going out of their way to make the guests feel special offering suggestions as per their preference .

I would also like to add that if you visit this hotel then do check out the rooftop pool area as the view of the endless sea & open sky is mesmerising to say the least . One simply wants to soak in the calm , relaxed , still & meditative vibes of the turquoise blue swimming pool basking in the glory of the shining sun .

I had a memorable time here & shall definitely...

nwind in an old school & classic way with some amazing retro numbers which will take you back right to the inception of socialising in the british style. The Ambience is snug, elite & mellowed; with wooden finishes, barstools & couches amazing music.

Embarked the evening with some invigorating spirts.

Gotham to Geoffrey Pretty Vitalising, Vodka based drink with charcoal, basil and dash of lime. Good.

Red Night was good.

Apple Cucumber Cooler Lovely & bracing with chopped cucumber and apple was sweet. Go for it.

Ice Tea was Good.

Passionate A mix of Pineapple, orange mango juices was good,sweet and refreshing.

The Silken Lamb Galauti Soft, succulent lamb kebabs with a beautifully smooth texture on the palate this was a treat, loved it. Go for it

Grandma's Tandoor Pahadi chicken tikka, simple chicken which makes a lovely appetiser to sip on a drink, marinated in green spices and grilled was good.

Mains Chicken tossed in Thai green curry sauce served with Burnt Garlic Rice : Decent, according to my palate salt content was an issue + slightly overly herby.

Butter chicken Risotto Risotto: butter chicken with shredded tandoori chicken was a miss for me, lacked the punch and salt content was an issue for me since my salt intake in food is on a lower side, this may vary from person to person.

Fresh Fruit Platter A fresh spread of seasonal cuts kiwi, plum, pineapples, muskmelon, watermelon and grapes.

Duo of Tiramisu and Hazelnut Ended the meal on a sweet note with a deconstructed combination of mascaporne mousse with american hazelnut. This is something you must try it was lovely. Go for it.

A +(.5) for the amazing vibe Geoffrey offers + Good Hospitality. Old school Anytime...

One of the legendary outlet present in our favourite hotel at Marine Drive .

It was our time to have some great food here along with their newly launched gin cocktails menu .

Our recommendations for food and drinks .

Cocktail Samosas : One of the best appetizers from their menu and had a supreme mix of all spices within the small samosa pockets .

Vol Au Vents : Baked puffs topped with cheesy mix with our favourite mushrooms . Indeed a mushroom lovers paradise .

Focaccia Cheese Chilli Toast : This one had a nice zingy flavour with the combo of cheese and chilli balanced nicely .

Caesar's Salad : Very different than what we normally had at other places . The dressing went extravagantly with fresh lettuce and cheese. Will love to have croutons in this as a small suggestion.

Masala Egg Sandwich in Italian Paninin bread : Star dish of the eve for me . The masala egg is perfectly made and those Panini complemented superbly.

Gin Cocktails : This was the main reason to visit the place and turned out to be am awesome eve with the following Drinks :

Gin and Tonic : A simple but classy drink to enjoy with the appetizers .

Tom Collins : Classic Cocktail and all time favourite whenever I prefer to go for gin as a base .

Gin Mojito : This was an eccentric combination however turned out to be very good.

Dessert :

Duo of Tiramisu and Hazelnut : Tiramisu at its best. Too good to be missed when out here .

New York Baked cheese cake : Again a heavenly experience . Cheese cake lovers surely shouldn't miss this .
