A Disturbing Experience at Greener - Safety Concerns Ignored
I have been a regular at Greener for a while, but after my latest visit, I can confidently say I won’t be returning. I visited the restaurant at Bali Naka, Pali Hill, Bandra with my two dogs on a Saturday afternoon, expecting a relaxing meal, but what unfolded was nothing short of terrifying.
As we arrived and stepped out of our vehicle, a man appeared out of nowhere, half-dressed, yelling, and hurling abusive language at us. He called me names, berated me for simply walking down the road with my dogs, and was clearly aggressive and unstable. Despite the clear threat to our safety, there was no support from the restaurant staff when we approached them. The manager simply laughed it off, admitting that this wasn’t the first time this had happened, and dismissed the issue by suggesting the man was mentally unstable.
For a restaurant that promotes itself as pet-friendly, it’s shocking that they would allow such a dangerous situation to persist without warning their patrons. This encounter didn’t happen late at night but in broad daylight, at 1:30 p.m. The man even waited for us outside and threatened to call the police as we left the restaurant, further escalating the situation.
It’s unacceptable that Greener would allow this kind of behavior to occur just outside their establishment and not take any measures to ensure the safety of their guests, especially women and those with pets. I strongly urge anyone considering visiting this place to rethink their plans. There are plenty of other restaurants in Bandra where you can enjoy a meal without fearing for your safety. Greener has lost my business for good, and I would advise others to avoid it until they take serious steps to protect...
Read moreHad a lovely dinner w my fam last night. Here’s what we called for :
1.Black bean and avocado rice paper rolls : 8/10 The mesclun greens went well along w the black bean & peppers! The sweet Chili sauce tied it all together
2.CASSAVA ROOT FRIES: 9/10 Cassava Root & Paprika loaded thick fries were crunchy. The Mango Habanero Sauce went so well with it, I was surprised! Although it’s a tad bit on the sweeter side. You could also go fro the Dill Ranch Dressing instead.
3.HIMALAYAN TOFU AMARANTH: 8.5/10 Did not expect the burger to be this good! The Tofu Amaranth Patty was moist but delish, it did tend to break apart a little (taste is worth it) the Raspberry Cumin Dressing went really well with it .
4.TOKYO TERIYAKI TOFU: 6.5/10 The Grilled Tofu along Ginger Coleslaw &, Lemongrass Ginger Teriyaki Sauce did lean towards the sweeter side I personally didn’t feel that the Peanut Satay Sauce complemented the dish. Our server Mr Ganesh suggested the Flame sauce, which was on the hotter side & it elevated the dish altogether!
5.ANJUNA HILLTOP RISOTTO: 8.5/10
The Arborio and Black Rice with Pearl Barley, along with the Vegan Feta Cheese was indulgent to say the least. The Krispy Kale & Charred Asparagus was godsent! Would definitely recommend this to all risotto lovers
6.BAVARIAN BLACK FOREST: 8/10 The Ragi Sponge was super super fresh & moist. The ganache had just the right level of sweet to it that was cut through by Blackcurrant and Cherry Compote. Black Forest lovers this one is for you!
7.LONG ISLAND: 10/10 This classic Overnight Brew Of Lemon, Mint, Green Tea was super fresh & acted as a great palate cleaner after the indulgent risotto. Must must try!
PS: Mr Ganesh was polite & had fantastic...
