a tray of food on a table
Kia L.

Located inside the global mall. We came here on a Sunday, wanting to try another place. Unfortunately they were closed, so we ended up giving this place a try. We asked the cashier and chef what their recommendation were, and this is what they picked out for us. I don't remember the names... but the food was sooo good!!!! We have recommended this place to all of our friends and a place on our list to return to.

Veg. Thali - comes with roti, rice, onions and sauce, daal, and two curries (included in other pic)
Gretchen S.

I was torn about what to order to celebrate my one year anniversary of living in Georgia. My fiancé was already passed out for a nap and wasn't hungry yet, so he ended up requesting Papa John's later. After a few other failed attempts at ordering certain items from other places, I decided to give this place a shot. I haven't had Indian food in quite some time and really have not had much of it in my lifetime as my childhood home of Hawaii does not really have many Indian restaurants. The one I used to frequent closed down before I left last year also. I ordered thru GrubHub with no issue and the food was ready on time when they said it would be. This little food court restaurant is located upstairs in the Global Mall - another place I pass all the time but only now had the chance to explore a little. The lady who handed me my food was nice and friendly and everything was packed securely. The food court is open for dining with social distancing in place, but I just took my food to go. Overall, the mall was pretty dead anyway with this pandemic still going on. I ended up trying the Veg Thali which comes with basmati rice, raita - spiced cucumber yogurt sauce, roti, two different curries, and daal. I also ordered the paneer biriyani and samosas on the side. I love palak paneer and chicken biriyani, so I was pretty sure I was going to love paneer biriyani, but more on that later. The Veg Thali was overall a pretty decent choice. The rice was cooked perfectly and the yogurt sauce was a perfect balance to the moderately spicy dishes. I've had better daal before, but it was okay. I was surprised my favorite part about the thali was actually the bhindi masala (stir fried curry okra). I don't usually care for okra as it is usually prepared with it's slimy texture still in place, but this was good! No sliminess and the okra was stir fried and seasoned very well. The other mixed veggie curry also was good (it was mostly string beans). There was an extra yogurt sauce aside from the raita that I didn't recognize and couldn't find on Google. I'm not sure what the topping was as it tasted almost like the consistency of rice krispie cereal sprinkled on top. Whatever it was it was good though, and once again, helped balance out the heat. The roti was good, but I'm not sure why one extra burnt tasting one was included - it was crispy and overdone, not really palatable. The three soft ones would've sufficed. As for the paneer biriyani, I was very disappointed. The rice was seasoned and cooked well, but the paneer - the main reason I ordered the dish- was completely overcooked, dried out, and rubbery. If you didn't know better, you wouldn't believe it was a form of cheese. I honestly have had jerky that was softer, so this was sad. I'll never order that dish from here again and don't recommend it from here if you're considering it. Finally, at least the samosas were very good. I think it was the best dish of the three that they prepared. I love the brownish-red tamarind chutney and would put it on everything if I had extra. The other green sauce was also good, and the samosas had a good ratio of potatoes/veggies and seasoning. They were not overdone, but still had a nice mix of crispy outside and soft inside. Overall, I'm not rushing to come back to this place, but I'm glad I at least was able to try it. If I get anything from here again it would probably just be the samosas.

Sev Puri
Mick D.

Global Mall (off Jimmy Carter Blvd) caters to a "South Asian" clientele, and the food court is unapologetically ethnic. So we organized a small UYE (Unofficial Yelp Event) to discover this place among a few other very nice finds in that food court. The food was tasty. This is Indian "street food," and you can get your chat or some samosas, or maybe a thali... It will be hot and fresh, and depending on the day, it might blow your socks right off. We had the sev puri (see photos). This dish was fun to look at and just as much fun to eat. It put a veritable symphony of spices and textures on the tongue all at once. And the bhel was delicious. Bhel puri is perhaps my favorite of all "chat" items. These folks do it right. Overall, I found the food court here to be fun, clean, and cheerful. This UYE was a great way to sample a ton of stuff without going completely broke in the process, and I look forward to going back for more.

Rusty S.

We have made many stops here and it's always a great experience. They have some of the best chaat and samosas around. The woman who works here is very friendly and engaging.

One of my favorite dishes is Pav Bhaji so I'll grab a plate any chance I get. While Mumbai Masala has some pretty good food, their pav is far from my favorite. Not bad, but there's definitely better. Despite they're food, who doesn't love a good lassi. Even if you're just walking around the mall, I would highly recommend grabbing a lasso for your stroll. Ladies, you may want to wait until after your fitting for that lehenga before you grab one, but definitely get one to go before you leave the mall. Maybe two.

***NOTE: REVIEW FOR SAMOSAS ONLY*** After coming back from a hike and starved, I had samosas on the brain, so I hit global mall and gave Mumbai Masala a shot. Mumbai is a vegetarian restaurant and that takes care of lunch and dinner needs. What I needed was an order of Samosas though ($3.49). The samosas came with two pieces, and included inside potato, peas, lots of Indian spices, and there was a little bit of heat inside in terms of spicy spice. This was all wrapped in a fried outer crust/shell, that wasn't as crispy as i'd have liked, though in fairness, it was a to go order. The samosas also came with two dipping sauces (Mint Chutney and Tamarind). They were decently sized but just had okay flavor. They weren't bad...I just have had much better...in some instances, right inside Global mall. I wasn't a huge fan of the mint chutney, but I devoured the Tamarind. My order took less than 10 minutes to come out and they work by a number system, so check your receipt for your number and listen for them to yell it out over microphone. FYI, if you want to use a credit card, it's a $5 minimum. Mumbai Masala is in the global mall food court which is to the right of the escalators if you're getting off of them. Masala will be to the left of the food court, right next to Dawat express. I'll probably come back to Mumbai Masala because i'm also sure i'll come back to global mall for good Indian eats. They have a large selection of snacks for you outside of samosas, so don't let my 3 star rating scare you away. Give them a shot!

Samosa Chaat
Toni W.

This is the spot that is responsible for my addiction to the Global Mall. Everything is fantastic. Everything. Enjoy!

Dahi poori
Abdul S.

I love this place for their snacks, such as dahi poori, chaat papri, samosas, khaman dhokla, and other stuff. All the dishes are prepared fresh and the service is pretty fast. It's part of food court at Global mall, so there are other choices too. I think, for "snack type" food, the prices are kinda high, but it's ok I guess.

Bhel puri, sev puri & papdi chaat. So delicious!
Miranda P.

Everything was incredibly fresh and flavorful! I came here on a visit to Georgia several months ago, and I can't wait to go back just to eat here again. I compare this place to everywhere I've gone for chaat since and none have measured up to this place yet. I definitely recommend and will visit again.

Sri R.

Good place for chat and hanging out with friends. Good food and quality and quantity is nice. Will revisit.

Honey K.

Small restaurant in the food court of global mall. Don't expect the greatest service or smiles but expect cheap prices and great food. I ordered Papdi chat my favorite which ended up tasting more like just choley but it was so great I didn't care to complain. I don't know if I'll ever return to the mall as it just seemed a little somber but if I do I'll definitely try this restaurant again.

I was honestly quite surprised by how distinct each mock meat was. We got the: - BBQ Chicken Drumsticks: The drumsticks were thick, smoky, and slightly stringy- definitely reminiscent of real chicken. The sauce was on the sweeter side, but still tasty. - Teppan Tofu Bibimpak: Came out sizzling! The tofu was crispy on the outside, almost custard-like on the inside. The sauce was savory goodness. - Black Pepper Steak Udon: Steak was nicely chewy, udon well-cooked, strong pepper essence. - Truffle Fried Rice: Crazy enough, this might be the best fried rice I've ever eaten. Such a unique combination of ingredients including black truffle, avocado, pine nuts, chestnut, mushroom, and green beans. Cool presentation too. - BBQ Pork Fried Rice: Right amount of sweetness with good wok hei. - Tempura Shrimp Roll: Tasted classic, liked that it had fried enoki mushroom in addition to mock shrimp. Ambiance is casual and spacious, lots of parking up front. Service is fast and friendly. To note, they have an automatic 18% service charge. Also, if you spend $30 in one transaction, you get $10 VG cash for next time (no minimum purchase necessary, expires within 10 days). Honestly, I wouldn't hesitate to go back and try other dishes if it was a bit closer to my house. 10/10 would recommend!

The biggest issue was the wait for the food. Half of our group got their meals, and then it took forever for the other table to finally get theirs, which made things awkward. As for the food, it was pretty mediocre overall. I had the fried shrimp and chicken, which was decent, but honestly I enjoyed the chicken more than the shrimp. One of my friends ordered the Cajun pasta and it lacked A LOT of flavor, definitely needed some salt and seasoning. The place was pretty and clean. I did like their outdoor courtyard to just wait and hang out. It wasn't a terrible experience by any means, but it also wasn't impressive enough for me to really want to come back.

We got: - Chicken Satay: The chicken itself was so believable, stringy and smoky! And crunchy (though I'm used to satay meat being grilled). The sauce was tasty too- peanut-y, sweet, hint of curry. However, for $8, I'd expect at least 4 skewers. - Shrimp Chow Kway Teow: CKT is one of my favorite noodle dishes ever, and Mamak's version certainly did it justice. The wok hei was so present, the noodles perfectly chewy, and the veggies (snow pea, onion, carrot, bean sprouts) well-cooked. The shrimp was insane, so bouncy and real-feeling. - Olive Fried Rice: Can't say I've ever had olive leaves before, this dish was delightful! Lots of great toppings (tofu, carrot, green bean, mushroom) that gave some textural diversity. - Black Pepper Beef: The black pepper essence was clearly distinguishable, but the sauce was too sweet for me. The beef was truly reminiscent of the actual thing. Lots of tasty veggies again (cauliflower, celery, jicama, carrot, bell pepper). Overall, taste-wise, all of the dishes were great; however, we did not feel portion sizes matched prices. Service could also stand to improve, with regards to attentiveness. To note, the restaurant is self-seating (I wish there was something that said this at the entrance). You can pay the bill via QR code, but there's a platform fee (I wonder if you could avoid that if you pay physically). Lots of parking available. 9/10 would recommend!
