Malvani Thali / Rapan Coastal Seafoods — Restaurant in Mumbai

A Small, but Neat & Clean Airconditioned Restaurant with just a Handful of Tables located next to the popular Gulati Sweets on the main Mahakali Caves Road in Andheri East, that Specializes in Authentic Malvani Seafood and offers a Wide Range of Thalis. The Menu is quite extensive, the Fish is Fresh, the Preparations are Authentic Malvani Cuisine, the Service is Prompt and the rates are Very Reasonable too.

If you are a Thali/Sea Food Lover, this place is for you. Big Thanks to Wiley Dsouza for his hospitality while serving .

P:S : They gave us a complimentary Chicken Soup...
