The Darjeeling — Restaurant in Mumbai

In terms of location, its located in the lane opposite NM Medical. There's a small board outside and it's pretty small so be careful or you might miss it.

The place offers indoor seating only. A small place with a few tables, can accommodate a group of 5 people max.

Music is great, some good old rock bands playing along with recent english numbers. Walls are decored with paitings and prayer flags all around.

Coming to the food, started off with their CHICKEN THUPKA. It's spicy tangy and has amazing flavours. Especially for someone who has cold. A MUST HAVE dish.

Next tried their VEG MOMOS. They offer three options to serve their momos. Pan fried, Kothay which is semi fried, and PAOCHED which is ginger garlic sauce poured over steam MOMOS. I tried Kothay and Paoched veg momos, both were too good and also the sauce they offered had enough punch ot it. So MOMOS are a MUST TRY.

Post the momos, shifed my food options to Chinese, ordered their PEPPER MUSHROOM. Seemed more like veg crispy, oil seemed a little too much, taste was good.

Next ordered their STIR FRIED GREENS WITH BABYCORN, which was basically boiled vegetables cooked along with a mild sweet mixture giving it a wholesome tasteful experience. A MUST TRY

VEG AMERICAN CHOPSUEY, fried noodles in the base topped with sweet sauce on it. Not a big fan of sweet dishes, so did not like it that much.

Nothing special about their HAKKA NOODLES and BURNT GARLIC rice either, no complaints in terms of taste.

In terms of quantity, the servings were good enough for two people. Also, in terms of the cost of dishes, totally justified.

The service is damn slow which is disappointing since there is a wait time after every dish.

Overall a good place to try something new, wish they work on their service and their Chinese section as well. For me, I would come back again once the appetite to try something new...

We visited The Darjeeling's new outlet in Oshiwara and had a fantastic experience here. Taking you through a detailed review of all the dishes we had here 👇

Chicken Kawri Soup

Handmade Tibetan macroni and generous chicken strips drowned in an amazing chicken broth. The combination of which was absolutely magnificent. One of the best soups we've had in recent time.

Dragon Chicken

Succulent chicken pieces wrapped with crispy noodles is a match made in heaven. The yummy sauce just added to the zing.

Cauliflower Chilli Mustard Dry

The spiciness from the chilli, the hit from the mustard sauce with perfectly crispy cauliflower was a combination well done.

Chilly Fish

Tender pieces of basa fish with a generous drizzle of chilly oil and garlic to top it off. It sure made our taste buds sing.

Chicken Shaypta

A classic Tibetan comfort food which had steamed rice with a delicious, flavour packed gravy. Totally takes you to another dimension.

American Chicken Choupsey

Another classic which was nailed in presentation as well as  flavour. The ratio of crispy fried noodles topped with the sweet and spicy chicken gravy was just perfect. And the poached egg was the perfect cherry on the cake.

Overall we had an amazing experience and enjoyed everything served. Waiter Aakash was also quite helpful in recommending dishes. The ambience was also spectacular. Can't wait to...

I was looking forward to dine at this place because of thukpa and momos...I was in love with these dishes from the time I first tried them in Rishikesh... This is a cute little restaurant located in the lane which is bang opposite Citi Mall in Andheri. I really liked the ambiance of this place...there are alot of posters put up on every wall, the place is nicely lit and there is soft music playing in the background... So we ordered poached momos, chicken thukpa and chicken shapta... The poached momos are steamed momos with ginger chilli soy sauce on it...The momos were spicy but yummy... The chicken thukpa was tangy, had enough chicken pieces, noodles and vegetables...It's always fun to have a thukpa in winters, unfortunately mumbai heat doesn't let you enjoy this...The portions were good and could be shared by two people... The shapta is steamed rice with chicken in some kind of gravy...Honestly I wasn't very happy with this dish...I liked the gravy, however I was not too impressed with the big chicken pieces...you wouldn't really loose alot if you give it a miss... They don't have lot of dessert options...we took the fried honey noodles with ice cream, which was decent. Definitely a good place to try some authentic...
