Jai Hind Lunch Home has been very close to my heart since I was a kid. It's an old gem found in Dadar with authentic traditional sea food. I love each and everything served here.
We went for lunch on a Wednesday noon. The restaurant was packed. But the service is so fast that it hardly takes any time to get a table.
The restaurant serves a variety of Mahrashtrian, Goan, South India Seafood. The best place to go for a seafood lover.
What we ordered: Starters 🍢 🔹Prawns Koilwada 🍤❤️💯 It was the best Koliwada I had. The prawns were crisp and nicely marinated in housemade masala. And the quantity was amazing. Highly recommend.
🔸Bharle Bombil ❤️💯 This is the most famous dish here and a innovative one. The bombil are stuffed with small prawns known as karandi and deep fried. Goes amazing with their creamy chutney.
🔹 Chicken Pahadi ❤️💯 Again another gem here. The Pahadi is amazingly marinated in a creamy pudina feeling and well cooked. I always enjoyed this dish.
🔸Javala Pakoda 💯 I always loved the Javala Pakoda which my mum made so I was like why not give it a try. The Pakoda was crisp and tasty. Only that it had more of rice flour.
Maincourse 🍛 🔸 Pomfret Thali 🐟💯 Thalis are like the specialities of this place. They serve a variety of thalis in non veg. We ordered the Pomfret Thali which had a fried Pomfret in it. They serve it with chapati and rice. We can ask for bhakri or Neer dosa instead of chapati. There is my favorite solkadi and a fish curry served. Everything in the dish was on point. Solkadi was love and is a must must try ❤️💯
🔹Chicken Sukkha We then ordered the Chicken Sukkha to go with the Neer Dosa. It came in a small dish. The taste was good just like homemade chicken. Butter chicken here tastes amazing with the Neer dosa 💯
Sadly they don't serve any desserts here as people get already full with the amazing dishes. Solkadi is recommended post your meal.
The best part was the service here. It was so speedy. Each dish came so soon and the servers are well versed with the dishes. They've been trained well and they make sure to leave you with a...
Read moreI went here with family. Known for its malvani food, it never disappoints. They have revised their menu a few years back, so a lot of legacy dishes are not available now. We started with the prawns rawa fry. It's a dish you never go wrong with when you are here. Next was an experiment, stuffed bombil fry with kardi prawns. This blew our mind! Highly recommended. We tried their chicken masala fry and bheja masala fry with bhakhri. It came in the exact same gravy 😅 By this time, we were absolutely full. Though our little one wanted rice and chicken malwani gravy. So that was our final order. Again, it was really as per our expectations. We finished with a solkadhi a kokam and milk concoction with spices. It's good for digestion. This is a small family space with decent if not lavish interiors.
The washrooms are small but clean. The staff was courteous and quick. The restaurant was full even on a weekday. It's popular amongst locals. Parking for cars here will be a problem, for bikes it's easy. This place does not have nor does it need a wheelchair accessible ramp. Pricing - For 3 adults and 1 kid, ordering 2 starters, 2 main course dishes, 1 rice and 2 aperitifs, we paid About Rs 1400. That's absolute value for money. I'd definitely visit this...
Read moreDidn't found the place so worth as heard from the crowd. I believe that the food was overly priced as per taste and quantity served. In a bombil fry plate u get only 3 pcs of bombil that too it is not of same size some are big and some are small. May be some ppl might have liked the food here but again would like to mention about bombil that when it was served it was found deep fried in oil and the entire plate was covered with oil which we didn't like. However we ordered for surmai tawa masala, roti, dal fry and jeera rice too but me and my friends got upset over bombil starter so, couldn't find the rest of the items as yummy as heard from other people. I had a lot of hopes and craze to visit this place to have a nice taste of sea food but, unfortunately it failed to cope up my hopes. Just an example I have visited to se seafood places where when they serve fish fry or bombil fry that time they serve a spicy curry too along with it. Hence, the same was missing here and so I ended up judging that this place it less welcoming and more served like a normal lunch home. However, this place might have a different serving style totally agreed with it but, still feel that there are more restaurants for seafood which are affordable and has...
