1. Britannia & Co.
$ | Andheri |At this old, dingy, and terribly atmospheric Irani restaurant, the nearly nonagarian and charming owner, Boman Kohinoor, has an obsession with the British royal family and thus pictures of royalty grace the restaurant's peeling walls. When he chants—and he will—"fresh lime soda sweet to beat the Mumbai heat!" you will order just that, but it's the chicken or mutton berry pulao, with rice, chicken, gravy, and dried fruit, that will keep you coming back (and perhaps Boman telling you and your companion that you resemble Prince William and Princess Kate).
Strott Rd., Mumbai, Maharashtra, 400001, India22-2261–5264Known For
- Chicken and mutton berry pulao---it's the only place you'll find it
- Local bombil fish fried the Parsi way
- The old-fashioned interiors

2. Kala Ghoda Café
$ | Fort |Among the most beloved lunch spots for South Mumbai's workaday crowd, this quaint little café is the ideal spot to grab a soy latte and a quick bite while resting your feet. The fresh juices and salads are cheap but clean and safe for foreigners, the Wi-Fi is free, and the interior, while a bit cramped, is bright and pleasant---and best of all, the sandwiches, like the KGC Special (arugula, vegetarian mayo, and Padano cheese on grilled flat bread), are light but extremely tasty when snuggled up to a hot (or more preferably iced) cup of joe. It's in a popular neighborhood, just a stone's throw from Jehangir Art Gallery and Kenneseth Eliyahoo Synagogue.
10 Ropewalk La., Mumbai, Maharashtra, 400001, India22-2263–3866Known For
- Great coffee
- Convivial atmosphere that encourages loitering (bring your laptop and get some work done)
- Its location in trendy Kala Ghoda
-
3. Bade Miya
$ | Colaba |Sitting behind the Taj Mahal Hotel for generations, Mumbai's most famous kebab joint is always packed, always greasy, and always tasty. Even though there's a strictly vegetarian section of the menu, you'll probably want to check out mutton seekh roll (succulent minced mutton kebab folded into a roti), the chicken baida roti (a sort of Indian quesadilla, with chicken and egg), or the more adventurous bheja fry (fried goat brains in a spicy gravy).
Tullock Rd., Mumbai, Maharashtra, 400005, India22-2202–1447Known For
- Quick, drive-through-style service
- Open till 1 am
- Always crowded so you know the food is fresh

4. Café Churchill
$ | Colaba |Dingy—but not dirty—Churchill specializes in British-style comfort food (e.g., starchy and simple roast beef and gravy with steamed veggies and mashed potatoes), and its red-and-white vinyl interior fits the food. The desserts are some of the best Mumbai has to offer—at any given time you'll find five kinds of chocolate cake (brownie, truffle, you name it), and five kinds of cheesecake in the dessert case.

5. Café Mondegar
$ | Colaba |Always packed, Mondy is a great place to grab an ice-cold Kingfisher draft and watch the crowds roll in—though unlike nearby Leo's, Mondy's doesn't have a full liquor license. Avoid the characterless air-conditioned room and instead post up at one of the cramped tables in the main space, where the jukebox plays at full blast and the walls are covered with cartoon murals of Mumbai life.
Colaba Causeway, Mumbai, Maharashtra, 400005, India22-2202–0591Known For
- Greasy, spicy Chinese food that pairs excellently with icy beer
- An iconic Mumbai restaurant
- Great location in the heart of touristy Colaba

6. Delhi Darbar
$ | Colaba |Classic no-frills Mughlai food draws vacationing Arabs to this eatery; it has outlets throughout the United Arab Emirates, though this one's the flagship. It's loud and bustling—not the place for a romantic dinner—but the real reason to come is the top-quality nonvegetarian food, especially the meat, kebabs, and rice dishes.
Colaba Causeway, Mumbai, Maharashtra, 400005, India22-2202–5656Known For
- Biryanis
- Butter chicken (or the paneer version for vegetarians)
- Excellent location for Colaba shoppers

7. Elco Restaurant
$ | Bandra |For decades the food stalls in front of Elco Market have been serving some of the best—and cleanest—vegetarian street food Mumbai has to offer, and they were doing so well that the owners were able to open this two-floor restaurant inside the market, offering essentially the same food. One of Mumbai's most iconic experiences is standing by the pani puri vendor, as he stuffs boiled potato, sprouts, mint-fresh water, and sweet chutney into an eggshell-thin sphere of fried flour and hands it to you in a plate woven together with leaves.
46 Hill Rd., Mumbai, Maharashtra, 400050, India22-2645--7677Known For
- The chaat, including the pani puri
- All the fun of street food without any of the tummy upsets
- Ragda pattice (shallow-fried potato patties blanketed with a spicy curry of white peas)

8. Ellora Restaurant
$ | |A convenient place to stop for a cold drink and a hot samosa. The outdoor patio has fruit trees (home to many monkeys) and pink bougainvillea flowers. The restaurant closes before the caves do.
Maharashtra, India24-372–4441 -
9. Gajalee
$ | |Suburbanites love this quaint seafood joint near Juhu Beach, which compares favorably with the best coastal restaurants Fort has to offer. The Phoenix Mall branch is sleek and modern, while the original Vile Parle location is a bit tacky and dated but better regarded (as most originals are). There are other branches across India, including one at the High Street Phoenix Mall, so those staying down south don't have to travel too far to enjoy the fish.
VL Mehta Marg, JVPD Scheme, Juhu, Maharashtra, 400049, India22-2610–7040Known For
- The fried surmai fish (a type of mackerel)
- The big, fresh grilled tiger prawns
- The "baby shark" masala (actually mori fish)

10. Kailas
$ | |Walk straight out of Kailasa Cave (number 16), past the umpteen souvenir stalls on your right, and you'll see the Hotel Kailas with its attached restaurant, Kailas: it's a simple cafeteria-style restaurant serving basic vegetarian Indian food until 9:30 pm. The food isn't great, but it's a hygienic spot, and a bit nicer than the Ellora Restaurant.
Maharashtra, India -
11. Leopold Café & Bar
$ | Colaba |When it defiantly reopened just four days after the first shots of November 2008 terrorist attacks were fired and 10 people were killed, the crowds were so big the police had to shut the place down all over again (the ownership has preserved bullet holes from the attack on its upstairs windows for people to see). Order a bottle of ice-cold Kingfisher beer to wash down the hearty, typical bar food—chicken tikka, french fries, that kind of thing, or go with the Chinese food that is actually the better bet.
Colaba Causeway, Mumbai, Maharashtra, 400005, India22-2282–8185Known For
- Chilli chicken
- Chicken fried rice
- Exceedingly lively atmosphere

12. Natural
$ | Churchgate |Serving the best ice cream in town, Natural—which has the taste of Indian malai (sweets so creamy they're almost like cheese)—seems to be everywhere. All of the ice cream is made with fresh fruit or nuts, and contains no preservatives; highly recommended are the tender coconut, roasted almond, or seasonal Indian fruit flavors like cinnamon-tinged chikoo (a caramel-flavored fruit also known as sapodilla), custard apple, or mango.
137 Marine Dr., Mumbai, Maharashtra, 400001, India22-2202–7426Known For
- Being open until midnight
- Fruit-flavored ice creams
- Chocolate chip ice cream

13. Suzette Creperie & Cafe
$ | Nariman Point |India's French influence might be strongest in sunny Pondicherry, on the east coast, but with two Frenchmen at the helm, this tiny crepe joint can provide a taste of it right here in Mumbai (branches have blossomed across Mumbai, including in Bandra and Powai). Try the Méditerranée, with grilled chicken, olive tapenade, mozzarella, and tomatoes, or the Italie, with arugula, a tomato coulis, mozzarella, and oregano, or build your own crepe from an extensive list of ingredients.
Mumbai, Maharashtra, 400021, India22-2641–1431Known For
- Nutella crepes
- Cheerful atmosphere
- Buckwheat crepes from Britanny
-
14. The Pantry
$ | Fort |Under the same ownership as Woodside Inn, this restaurant dispenses with the pubby atmosphere to focus on simple, rustic cuisine using local ingredients. The food is excellent and reasonably priced considering how refined it is, and although it'd be nice if it had a wine license—the white interiors, open kitchen, and general atmosphere all scream "wine bar"—the excellent baked goods and mains more than make up for the lack of booze.
Military Sq. La., Mumbai, Maharashtra, 400001, India22-2270–0082Known For
- Healthy breakfast options
- Delightful baked goods
- Fairly accommodating of gluten-free diners

15. The Tasting Room
$ | Central Mumbai |Popular with rich Mumbai housewives—who pack the place for lunch during the week—this Mediterranean restaurant serves gourmet food in a relaxed, tasteful setting. On the top-floor veranda of Good Earth (a designer furniture store), the Tasting Room shares its hosts' penchant for subtle Indian minimalism in warm earth tones.
Tulsi Pipe Rd., Mumbai, Maharashtra, 400011, India22-6528–5284Known For
- Watermelon and feta salad
- Excellent location for those visiting the nearby shopping behemoth, Phoenix Mills
- Romantic dinner ambience
