This place has an impressive rotating beer list that often features interesting and hard-to-find beers. The spicy margarita is also great.

I sat by the window and it was nice people watching and enjoying some BBQ after work! I got the Pit Boss and selected three different meats. I got the Pulled Chicken, Brisket, and ribs.

I wish the ribs were better, they had potential but were dry and tough.

The institute's extravagant afternoon tea came from this long-established American barbecue…read morerestaurant, opened in 1995. Burnt Ends: Best of the day. The beef brisket was tender, flavorful, and juicy, not dry at all. The tomato-based barbecue sauce was sweet and refreshing, with a rich but not overpowering smoky flavor. It's said to have been smoked for 14 hours before being slowly stewed--I admire the restaurant's dedication. Pulled Chicken: Average. While the chicken thigh wasn't dry, it wasn't particularly tender, and there wasn't much juice. The North Carolina vinegar BBQ sauce was also bland. Coleslaw: A good way to cut through the richness, but nothing special. Cornbread: Soft and slightly coarse, with a natural sweetness from the grains. Delicious with sour cream. Chocolate Chip Brownie: Surprisingly, a BBQ restaurant's homemade dessert was also excellent. Soft in texture, with a bitter and fragrant flavor.

We got an…read moreamazing booth seating, but really wanted their fancy bus seating which gives a classic diner feel to the restaurant. TL;DR - if you are from Bombay, are craving that specific Bombay Chinese food taste, and Vada Pav - look no further - this is the place. Most of their staff are fellow Mumbaikars - shout out to Shiv, Dhvani, and Ronak! Shiv, our server was friendly and our hungry table got straight to ordering which included a flavor packed and well priced Lychee Martini ($10), Masala Chai Hot Toddy ($12), and Spicy 'Lil Rita ($12) - being the best one! Food included some well name dishes like Kashmiri Deviled Eggs ($12), Vada Pav ($12), Rasam Risotto ($15), Butter Chicken Pot Pie ($20), Chicken Steak with Makhani Sauce ($18), Street Fried Noodles ($16), and Penne Pasta with Chicken for the kiddos. Food just hits the right spots and is very flavorful, extremely well seasoned, and perfectly spiced. Interiors and their bar is very inviting. Noise levels during our stay were on the lower end. Service was excellent. What was refreshing was they didn't charge us any automatic gratuity even for our large group - but absolutely deserved a generous one! Highly highly recommend if flavorful food is your thing!

The ribs were fatty in a way I have never seen and had that weird gas flavor that sometimes happens with Q. The wings were burned and sad with a thin sauce in a half-sized container, which was new to me. Sides were meh, service poor eventhough I was picking up. Yeah, just not a hit for me.

It's a buffet style with attentive wait staff making sure you have all you need. The food is good and fresh. We tried everything on the regular buffet. We did not do the premium or the additional hot pot. (It's not Michelin Star food for clarity) The ambiance of the place is dated and could use an update but why do it when the place is packed and people are full and happy. Would return for my one time a year buffet expedition.

While I appreciated small touches with being able to put your jackets in a plastic bag under your seat, everything else fell a bit short. The quality of the meats and produce was a bit disappointing. The onion our server used to flavor and start our grill with looked dry, the pumpkin seemed to have a bit of frost as though it were frozen, and the overall quality of the meat was a bit lackluster. Even towards the end of our meal, even when our server told us the meat was ready, a couple of pieces were still raw. The banchan was not bad and the bibim naengmyeon we had was probably the best part of our meal. Sadly I don't think we'll be back based on our experience.
