They know their beer and grub! Jun 21, 2011
Sammy Sosa Jogeshwari West | 191 reviews
Sammy Sosa is a Viraat, Samraat and their crew enterprise which I should have been to long back, but I only started frequenting 2 years ago. It is quite easily one of the best places for gourmet beer and good food. Been here for drinks, dinner, lunches and they do them all equally well.
Samraat and Viraat (Sorry guys, if I got your spellings wrong) are the brains behind this foodie paradise and know their beer pretty well. Unlike other armchair restaurant operators, they are on the floor all the time, and with the patrons right from the word go. Seating, suggesting food and drinks, taking... read more -

Good Food, Fuzzy Service Logic! Nov 26, 2010
Kakori House Jogeshwari West | 20 reviews
So I landed here apparently on the 2nd day after it opened (13th Nov to be precise!), for dinner. There was a Good crowd waiting, and i waited 25 minutes to be seated for dinner.
First the service, I was not so delighted with it. They forget getting the basic hygiene factors in place and open up a restaurant!! The water was not served but the soft drink was (or is it that only billable items were to be served?)... The food came but they forgot the napkins. Then they give you stained napkins when you ask for it after the food! They gave us menu cards, which were apparently sample menucards... read more -

Lovely breeze, good food, staff could be better! Apr 18, 2010
Sheesha Bandra West | 41 reviews
Walked in here a couple of times and haven't had a reason to complain yet! The location is excellent, the ride up the glass-lift is tuned to be slow to add to the effect of going up for a fancy meal.
The breeze is usually good, by virtue of the fact that there is altitude over the city. The ambience is nice, and there are various seating options .... you could sit with the dining or lounge setting!
The difference between good and great can be subtle, and I can blame the IPL and our cricket craze for that! On a friday night, when the restaurant is running full, the blokes... read more -

Good pizza, though cold! Mar 06, 2010
Pizzaroma Andheri West | 44 reviews
I tried Pizzaroma after a few recommendations from friends.... and it turned out the pizza was bang on. thin crust, the way it should be, the rustico was pretty filling. But it was cold! Did he just pick one off the shelf to deliver, i dont know, but the cold killed the taste.
I also tried out the pizza sandwich, which I was recommended on the phone. Nice effort, nice outcome. However, wrapping it up in aluminum foil just kills it and makes it cold again.
Pizzorama, you need to fix your delivery effort. Pizza home delivery in andheri is a big market, and you gotta get this -

Winner Winner Chicken Dinner Feb 13, 2010
Bagdadi Restaurant Colaba | 49 reviews
In the past @ Las Vegas, the minimal blackjack bet would be 2$, and a good hearty chicken meal would cost 1$ 75cents. That became the warcry for winners, and that is what is true for a Chicken Dinner at Bagdadi.
The place will look a little rusty, but why change the winning formula, eh? They have a mention in the Lonely Planet, and hence they attract the foreigners. They are known by the Mumbaiyas, and hence they get the local crowd. A lot of people would also overflow from the next door Badey Miya, which is super duper crowded all the time
So much for the good references... read more -
