“ Great Food. The ambience can be better - the seating area feels crammed and only a few people can dine in. It isn't good for large group of people. The service was excellent and so was the food. If the seating area was better it would be 5-stars! ”
“ we went here before going for a holi event, we ordered Misal Paav, Paneer frankie , puri bhaji shrikhand for my kid and puranpoli to share since it was Holi The misal was 5/5, very good kolhapuri misal, spicy and tasty the puri bhaji shrikhand was also 5/5, shrikhand was rated 11/10 by my son the Frankie was okay nothing too great but not bad as well Puranpoli was also good, a little less sweet but good nevertheless Overall highly recommend this place for authentic Maharathrian food. ”
“ I have been to this place multiple times and I just keep going back. Love their marathi dishes: sabudana vada, pav bhaji, vada pav, dabeli, shrikhand puri. They have some Nice Bombay sandwiches too. ”
“ The food, ambience and service here is fantastic. We enjoyed delicious sabudana khichadi, soft yummy thalipith, paav with two types of mouth watering misals (Mumbai and Kolhapuri styles). Shrikhand was heavenly. We will come again and again with family and friends ”
“ It is THE place for authentic Maharashtrian / Mumbai street food. Got their chilli cheese toast which the waiter recommended (over their grilled sandwich). Also loved their sabudana vada and kothimbir vadi - both were excellent. Plenty of other dishes I'd have loved to try! The staff was very friendly and helpful. Ambience is alright. All-gender, clean restrooms. Free parking in the lot outside. ”
“ Authentic Marathi Food. This place is usually crowded on weekends; but every item on the menu is worth the wait. I have tried most of their items on different occasions. Sabudana Thalipeeth, Sandwiches, zunka Bhakar are my favorites. We had Thaali today which we felt was a bit costly though. Also Methicha Ladu as a dessert was such a big disappointment. Anyway, even though costly food tasted really good. ”
“ The bhel puri and Veg grilled sandwich are must try options. Never came to this place although it's close by to our home, they got lots of varieties for evening snacks, dinner items. Coming back for sure and trying other items. Parking is plenty on both sides of the restaurant and got to see the beautiful sunset by sitting outside, check the sunset picture posted with this review. ”
“ This place seems to be in the middle of a lot of commercial properties. It was a long weekend and plenty of parking was available not sure how it is during. A regular weekend or when employees from nearby building are around as well. We ordered three things for pickup- Vada pav, grilled sandwich and the Frankie roll. The Vada pav was the best. The sandwich got a bit soggy when we got it home. Think it was packed hot in the box. I liked the flat bread used for the Frankie which is basically a roti. Unfortunately for our choices all 3 had potatoes and I got potato fatigue. I expected more julienne veggies in the Frankie not mashed potatoes. The garlic or the sauce - something was overpowering in the Frankie and it was my least favorite. I loved the other two dishes and can't wait to try more items from the menu. ”
