There are very few Irani restaurants left in Mumbai. This one is one of them. If you want to get the feel of Irani food with Bun Maska with Irani Chai then this is THE place. Nowdays they serve alcohol unlike in the past. We started with Fratelli Chardonnay with Ban Maska, PaneerAkuri Sliders and Veg Cutlet. I know Bun Maska with wine is very odd combination but who cares ? I was eating my favorite Bun Maska almost after 30 yrars. Afterwards we had Veg Dhansak, Tawa Paneer Masala, Aloo Auntey's Veg with Parathas. All the dishes were delicious. In desert we had our old favorite Lagan Nu Custard, 5 Star Brownie and Mawa Cake. What we had was not food, it was more than that. It was like going back in the past and enjoying our younger days. The ambience was very lively and family oriented. We were lucky to get a table on Saturday evening without reservation. By the time we left, it was packed. The price were very reasonable. The service was very polite and friendly thanks to our server Valmik. The decor was typical Irani with all photos and juke box taking you 50 years back in history. Don't miss it...
