Wow. Just wow. I HATE WRITING THIS REVIEW because I want this place all to myself! There's not a…read more6th star, otherwise I'd give that too as well. Could not write enough good things about our first experience at Bandra Cafe. I have nothing but praise for this restaurant! Words cannot describe how impressed I was by the chef and his wonderful team. I could literally rave about this restaurant for HOURS. Our experience was absolutely exceptional. It's not often that from drinks to dessert you like everything set infront of you! You can truly feel the care and talent behind every plate. Everything is curated down to the smallest detail, and the food is absolutely amazing! This restaurant left me in a food coma. I was so full I couldn't even move but that's when you know the food was really good. What truly sets this experience apart is the owner himself. His warmth, humility, and passion for his craft shine through in every bite and every interaction. From the moment we walked in, we could tell this place was going to be special. The food was absolutely delicious--every dish was beautifully presented and full of flavour. You can tell they use high-quality ingredients and put real care into every plate. The service, impeccable. Professional and you are treated like you are their best customer at that moment. Bandra Cafe is one of those places where both the food and the service make you want to come back. The first thing that hit me was the smoke and sizzle of the Szechuan Tikka Sizzler. I wasn't ready for this level of heat!! And don't even get me started on the Quesadilla- it's absolutely scrumptious! The truffle fries are a non-negotiable! And of course I had to jump on the dirty soda trend! But the deliciousness doesn't stop there because the Chilli Chicken was pure satisfaction. And my summer mocktail era starts now with this Chili Mango Refresher. Let's just say my cravings were officially handled with the Bang Bang Cauliflower. And a good latte goes a long way! The cutting chai just fixes everything! Every dish was full of flavour, cooked to perfection, and presented beautifully, making it hard to pick a favourite. The food had solid flavours that left us satisfied. The atmosphere is beautiful and lively with a great mix of elegance and comfort that makes the place feel special yet welcoming. From the very first moment, the owner and staff went the extra mile to secure a table for us, offered insightful recommendations that made each dish a perfect choice, and, above all, treated us with such kindness and genuine warmth that we felt right at home. Staff is top level service! You can tell real care and time went into how everything was prepared and presented. That extra attention shows. The attention to detail and dedication to quality shine through in every bite. What really stood out was the ambiance: the decor is stylish, warm, and inviting, making the whole dining experience even better. The decor, lighting, and music created an incredibly comfortable space that made you want to stay longer. Overall, Bandra Cafe is one of those rare places that manages to deliver on both food and experience. I have nothing but top tier, quality experiences and would recommend this place to anyone. Top-notch service, super friendly people, and a cool atmosphere. A place you'll want to return to, again and again. If you're looking for a place where great food, and phenomenal service come together effortlessly, Bandra Cafe is the place to go. This place is definitely a vibe! If you're looking for a restaurant that nails the food, mocktails, and atmosphere all in one, then Bandra Cafe is the place to go! I'll be dreaming about this place until my next visit! This was my first time at the restaurant, and I can attest with much confidence that it will definitely NOT be my last. Do yourself a favour: drop by this place. I promise--you will not regret it.

The staff is so kind and welcoming, it really is like being part of the family. During this visit we ordered our fave dishes including the savoury chicken tikka masala and the incredible chicken momos. I wasn't a huge fan of the prawn koliwada fry because of the seasoning, but my family enjoyed it. Our server Jana was very kind and knowledgable. Despite managing tables for half the restaurant, she was efficient in taking our orders and attentive when we needed her to come to our table. We also appreciated her sense of humour and friendliness. We love this restaurant and are so excited they've been expanding to other locations. We can't wait to return for another meal here during our next visit to Canada!

We tried most of everything on the $5 menu - the loaded taters, tuna poke bowl, pulled pork sandwich, deep fried pickles, torpedo prawns and the chicken 65. Everything was quite delicious, and I surprisingly loved the Deep Fried Pickles! It wasn't too oily, and loved the constrast between the fresh pickle and the fried batter outside. We found that the rice to be a little hard in the tuna poke bowl, and most of the deep fried items like the tater tots + prawns tasted like it was just poured out from a frozen bag and just air fryed up, but its a great value! This is a prime place to come meet with some friends or to watch a game and to enjoy the atmosphere! The service was great and we loved how big and spacious the pub was, definitely a great place to come with a group of people!

I can't believe I have yet to review one of my favourite restaurants in town. And there's barely…read moreany reviews which is a shame because this is a true unique gem of a restaurant! My family has been ordering take out from here since I was a kid. I believe the owners have expanded and now have multiple locations. Its Indian style food - with an emphasis on seafood. It's not a restaurant if you're looking for anything light and healthy. It's good, well flavoured food. When I last visited I noticed they have curry dishes and naan too. I dont know if they always had that because to be honest I have never tried theirs. Though if it's even half as good as what I usually eat I am definitely looking forward to trying it. What I can and would recommend is what we've been eating for literally decades -their pakoras! O.m.g. both their fish (made from cod) and their chicken pakoray are sooo good! Juicy. Tender. Spicy. Falvourful. Delicious. Get them with their tomato and tartar sauce dips and you are set for lunch/dinner. You can get either half or full. I say half is good for one person and full is good for sharing. But I have finished a full order on my own once - just cause it's that good. You can also modify the heat level to your tolerance. Though I must add that the heat is definitely a part of the eating experience. Give it a try!! I promise you won't regret it! Edit: we ordered again today because writing the review made me crave chicken pakoray. But I remember one aspect I dont like about the business model. They will pack excessive sauces in your order AND charge you for it without your consent! I hate hate hate when restaurants do this. If I didn't order it you should not charge me for it. If it's something you think I may want ASK me if I'd like to add it to my order. Dont just add it into the take out bag and charge me an additional $7 dollars. We ordered 1pound chicken and 2 pounds fish and the total came to $38. That's ridiculous. We only looked at the receipt during the drive home unfortunately or i would have marched back into the restaurant. Found out the extra charge was the 7 sauces they decided to sneak into the order. That's wayyy to much sauce anyway. The maximum we used was 3 and 1/2. Its disappointing when businesses do this because it totally ruins the experience. Lastly, the service sucks. My partner walked in and was not acknowledged by the lady on the phone in front -not even eye contact to indicate she was seen. After a few minutes someone from the back came and finally asked what order she was here for.

My husband ordered the beef dip, which looked like someone stepped on it. The meat was super dry with absolutely no flavour. Unfortunately this restaurant will never be the same. We will never go back.
