Gymkhana 91 Bar & Kitchen — Restaurant in Mumbai

In the by lanes of Raghuvanshi Mills, lies this gem of a place serving some lip-smacking cocktails, and scrumptious dishes. It’s a perfect place for a social gathering as well as a great date place!

Ambience:-

Gymkhana 91 has a rustic wooden décor giving a vintage feel to the ambience. It’s quite spacious having multiple chair and sofa seating. The open bar here is quite eye-catching with a range of spirits lined on its shelf. Overall, the ambience is resplendent!

Service and Staff:-

The staff here is courteous and friendly having a good sense of recommendations as per the patrons’ taste.

Cocktails:-

1. Turmeric Whiskey Sour: It’s a classic cocktail with an interesting twist to its blend. It is a mix of whiskey, honey turmeric and orange juice with the blended Scotch-Whiskey Black & White. Turmeric, known for its anti-inflammatory properties, has made its way from the kitchen to behind the bars after being noticed by bartenders and companies alike. The colour and the bitter taste it adds to the cocktail is unmatched, and it evenly balances out the sweet-tasting orange juice and honey making the drink a delectable affair. The taste of each ingredient is finely balanced as it evenly spread out on the palate. Definitely a highlight drink from the cocktail menu. Highly Recommended!

Rating: 5/5

2. Silva’s Rose: It’s a highlight drink from the cocktail menu which is an experience in itself. It’s a mild flavourous drink with a cranberry aftertaste. Definitely, a must-try drink!

Rating: 5/5

Appetizers:-

1. Kuber Kulcha: It consists of five mini kulchas stuffed with cheese garlic and chillies along with mint sauce as an accompaniment. The kulchas were extremely light on the bite and with the cheese stuffing, it was a melt in mouth experience. The mint sauce was absolutely toothsome, so much so that we asked the staff to get some more of it. A bite of the kulcha after dipping it into the delicious mint sauce was a sheer delight! A must-try dish!

Rating: 5/5

2. Crispy Sushi Roll: It consists of vinegared rice (with some salt and sugar), tempura asparagus, topped with mayonnaise and chef’s special sauce. It was served along with a small bowl of soy, wasabi and garlic. The aroma of the freshly prepared Sushi Rolls along with the magnificent presentation of the dish was itself appetizing. The eight pieces of Sushi Rolls were crisp and scrumptious with the flavorful taste of the sauce. The dish is a light appetizer which will surely please your palate.

Main Course:-

1. Subz Moti Mahal with garlic naan: It basically includes exotic veg. mini patties stuffed with cheese dipped in a creamy gravy. We called for two garlic naans from the bread section as an accompaniment and they were extremely soft, light on the bite and complimented the sabzi. It’s definitely one of the fluffiest naans I’ve had in a long time! The sabzi too was flavoursome and creamy, especially the stuffed cheese patties. Since it’s a North Indian dish, the quantity of the same is enough of two people. Recommended!

Rating: 5/5

2. Mushroom Risotto: Made with Arborio rice, which is short-grain rice usually used in risottos, the mushroom risotto was scrummy overall but lacked salt which was added later and mixed. The mushrooms were minced well and tasted just right!

Rating: 4/5

Dessert:-

1. Chocolate Volcanic with Orange zest: The dessert basically is a classic chocolate fondant with dark chocolate and orange zest inside. The pudding was baked well with no visible cracks on it, although it would have been great if more chocolate was added inside. Coming to the taste, the mix gave out a strong taste and aroma of the eggs as it overpowered the chocolate and the orange zest. I personally would recommend other desserts from the menu over this one.

In conclusion, Gymkhana 91 is a gem of a place in its vicinity having a rustic décor, a range of delectable cocktails, scrumptious servings and splendid service! Definitely visiting again to try the...

Gymkhana 91 Delivery

We finally decided to order food in this lockdown. After some discussion and debate, we all settled to call for some food from Gymkhana 91. I had fantastic time few months back when I could personally visit the outlet. Packaging was good, delivered in paper bags. Food was reasonably warm when delivered.

We just called for some starters since dinner was mad at home. We called for Kuber Kulcha (personal favourite), Veg Spring Rolls and Kung Pao Potato.

You can never go wrong if you order Kuber Kulcha, mini kulchas stuffed with cheese, garlic and chillies comes with green chutney. Also really liked their Kung Pao Potatoes tossed in Kung Pao sauce and veggies. It was special to finally get back to new normal times and order food from outside. Would recommend all to try Gymkhana 91 for their safety and hygiene standards as well.

Gymkhana 91 Dining

Gymkhana 91 has one of the most unique interiors that one can find in today's restaurants. British Colonial touch given to everything right from tables and chairs to the stairs, to the ceiling and the walls. Just kind of takes you back to the 19th century. It has 2 levels, but the ground level is much more spacious. The place primarily serves Modern Indian, Asian and Continental. Restaurant is located inside Raghuvanshi Mills Compound, besides Gup Shup, at Level 1.

Talking about what all we tried at Gymkhana 91 -

We began with a couple of starters - Kuber Kulcha and Dahi ke Alu Tikki. Both of them simply amazing. Kuber Kulcha were stuffed with Cheese, Garlic and chillies. And Dahi Ke Alu Tikki were these mini patties deep fried topped with a bit of yogurt and imli chutney. The good part along with taste, they have worked hard on the presentation of the dish as well. Along with starters, we called for Classic Blueberry Smoothie and Hazelnut Brownie shake. Again nothing to complain about, one can choose either as per the preference.

I had heard a lot about the Spicy Tuss, which is the Maharashtrian Thecha served along with Pao. Thecha is generously spread in between of the buns, but mind you it is extremely spicy. Spice lovers would just love the dish. Authentic taste of Thecha made of spices from Kolhapur. Must try. Moving to the mains, we tried the Indian section, even though had heard a lot about the Sushi, Noodles and also Malaysian curry. From Indian, we called for Garlic Naan along Subz Awadhi Kofta. Good taste and texture, Kofta we're fresh and soft enough.

Finally for desserts, we called for the Chocolate Volcano with Orange Zest. It is recommended to call for this dessert while your mains are served, because the restaurant needs at least 20-25 mins before which they can serve this dessert. The hot chocolate within the cake just gushes out the moment you break the cake to take a bite. The orange flavour is light not too strong so even those who don't prefer a mix of orange and chocolate can go for this.

A nice experience at Gymkhana 91 especially because of the ambience and dishes, where certain are awesome like the starters and Thecha. Pay a visit when around High Street Pheonix or...
