111 year old cafe located near Marine lines station takes you back in time. It was my first visit so I wanted to try as much as food as I can.. Greedy me ;)
Tried mutton puff, salli kheema, half fry and chai..
Mutton puff was flaky and yummy, salli kheema was delicious and mildly spiced.
Chai as all Irani cafes serve was awesome!
All this costed me 315. Service is a little slow but I don't mind :) Don't miss the lovely frames on the walls. The have a very vast menu, wouldn't mind coming again to try them.

A place where time has stopped. Shop has old school interior. Not a hustling bustling place where you can chill out after hard working day. Food here is average but prices are fair compared to it. They should fix lights here cause in evening this shop become very gloomy.
A time machine that transports you back to a different era.
The food is a let down though. The keema ghotala was the best thing that morning. Tasty, masaledar and eggs completely amalgamated into the soft mince.
The akuri was just like a scramble, not soft and tomato laden as it should be.
The bun maska was crumbly though the butter was slathered on liberally
The chai was the quintessential irani chai sweet strong and orange. Really scratches the itch for irani chai if you like me were craving for one.
But what it lacks in food is made up by the ambience dark wood chairs marble tables and glass cabinets housing all sorts of little condiments.
Pics of Persia reminding us of their exotic origins. Everything harks back to a slow and easy time.

Chicken Omlette is good. Brun is kadak and the crispy layer is slightly thicker than others. Excellent. Tastes like a French baguette.
Mawa cake is very good.
Place is neat and clean.
Place takes you back many years and the feeling is nostalgic.
Atlast I found my cup cake style chicken puff with white chicken filling. Very good.

Just Wow! The food here was a complete 5/5 and so was the service. Had ordered Sali keema and mutton cutlet and let me tell you it was not just the taste that I appreciate but the portion. The mutton cutlet for that price point were huge and tasty. The sali keema is the best that I’ve had.
Also loved the fact that the interiors were not renovated to the modern style and were rustic 🤩

Old irani restaurant. I had the famous Chicken Dhansak Dal with rice. It was absolutely underwhelming. No issues with quality but why do people suggest it to others is a big question. It tasted like Maa ki daal with a tasteless piece of chicken within. Even the rice served with it has not much aroma. I tried raspberry soda with it which was good.
The eating place is dingy, unclean and dark. The owner couple were having a fight when I went. And at least they should fix the lighting. How do you expect customers to eat in the dark. I will most likely never visit again.

Went to Mumbai and visited this Iranian cafe. I really loved the ambience. It's like taking me back to the 80s/90s. I had mutton keema and pav. Really cheap. And ice cream soda. I would again visit this place.
One of the heritage restaurants in Metro area, serving wonderful Irani cuisine. Visited the restaurant in the evening around tea time. Service was slow though only a few tables were occupied.
Ordered grilled egg sandwich, mawa cake and tea. Took quite long for the food to arrive on the table. Food was delicious. Tea was just ok. Again there was a wait for the bill. Price is ok. Service can be improved.
A visit to this restaurant is highly recommended while in the area. Not sure if they accept UPI payment.
