For a long time, I wanted to visit the Conservatory for its bright sun-filled glass roof terrace setting. We called them at the very last minute on Saturday morning for dinner reservations, and they said we can accommodate you for an early dinner slot between 6:30 to 8:30 pm. We were initially booked for a table in a lower area, but on our request based on availability, they happily moved us to the terrace. In early evening sunlight, the terrace set up was stunning, with light classy furniture and tastefully placed plants everywhere! And then the sun went down and the place glowed warm dim lighting. For starters the Beetroot Thecha Toast with the subtle fiery taste of thecha and loads of avocado and cream was great! The very popular heartily portioned Bombil Fish and Chips was amazing! Only a Bengali chef can do justice to the tricky fish of Bombil, without making it too heavy or oily. For mains, we had the Parsi Mutton Kheema pizza with six slices and lavish kheema topping, which was a great blend of Italian and Parsi cuisines. We ended our fantastic dinner with heart-warming French Toast for desserts, loaded with butter, the right amount of sweetness, and fresh berries. We paid 4k between the two of us for four dishes, which makes it a tad bit expensive. For the posh Juhu ambience, the quality ingredients, and the chef’s innovation and craft, maybe the price is justified! The other reviews for this place are like playing a game of one truth and two lies. Most reviews suggest the staff is unfriendly, the food doesn’t taste good with small portions, and the place is expensive. The truth is, the place is EXPENSIVE, but the food tastes great with rightsized potions, and the staff is super accommodating and...
Read moreA new place yet quite popular on Social media thus would recommend to reserve and go. Valet parking is available
Do keep in mind that they shut down after lunch at 5 pm with the last order at 430 pm in case planning to visit for an afternoon fiesta. They resume operations from 730 pm onwards.
The restaurant has a ground floor with open air seating and an enclosed air conditioned space in front of the bar. From the open air section a stair case moves to the first floor that is enclosed and has a family section too for a large group outing.
We reached at about 440 pm and found the last order taken. However the host allowed us to entertain given our request and we are really grateful for it. He found us a table in front of the bar.
To begin with I ordered a beer to settle down. We were not keen for a pizza thus he recommended a tofu based vegetarian starter and a main course with chicken Sheekh served with rice and grilled vegetables. After a long time I have to agree without any doubt I had such a satisfying. The aroma, the presentation, the taste everything was perfect and left a lingering memory in the mind. The cutlery was equally well picked up and added to the joy of eating. Infact the Tofu way exceeded my expectations and one of the best vegetarian dish I ever had. Must try out.
The restaurant is in the shape of a house and is very unique. There will be ample sunlight for lighting that’s extremely positive. The presence of greenery inside adds to the positive feeling. The staff are well trained and knew exactly how to please their patron. For me it’s like eating out in a Michelin star restaurant in the heart of...
Read moreI wanted to share my recent experience at The Conservatory, which unfortunately left me quite disappointed. I visited the restaurant with my friends, looking forward to a pleasant evening. However, things took an unexpected turn.
While we were enjoying our time, taking pictures at our own table/ area without disturbing anyone else, or invading anyone's privacy, a staff member approached us. They explained that some aunties nearby had expressed discomfort .I couldn't help feeling that the situation could have been handled differently.
In my opinion, it would have been more considerate for the staff to first approach the individuals who were bothered – the "aunties" – before addressing us. We were seated at our designated table within our own section of the restaurant, with no intention of infringing on anyone's experience.
Moving on to the dining aspect, I must admit that the food didn't quite meet our expectations, especially considering the taste. The restaurant's ambiance was indeed appealing, but the culinary...
