Restaurant Review: Bademiya - Colaba, Mumbai

Bademiya is more than a restaurant, it has actually become a landmark of that area. One of the famous veg/non-veg restaurants of Mumbai, which actually started from a small street stall. It is one of those restaurants which are part of Mumbai's nightlife. I have been to Bademiya twice, one was at normal time around 8:30 pm so the place was crowded as expected, but the next visit was at 2:30 pm and to my surprise I was unable to park my car. The area was so full and everyone was there to taste the divine food offered at Bademiyan. Okay, so let's talk about the experience:

Ambiance: It is an open street kind of restaurant where people take the food from the counter and enjoy it in open. Now, they have arranged an area where they have put some chairs descent enough to sit and eat. Frankly, not at all fancy, but worth the food you actually taste.

Service: In both my visits, service was excellent. Right from the time you order food, it is served and at last when the person comes to offer you water to wash your hands (which touched me the most). The service was quick, the staff was courteous. Even, that late at night they were on their toes, smiling, running after orders which was really awesome. This kind of service lacks, even in most of the high end restaurants. So, I am very impressed with the service, they are really doing good work here.

Food: Ahhhh... Bademiya is one of those restaurants about which people say "Colaba gaye and Bademiya mein nahi khaya". I tried non-veg both the times. Kebabs always win my heart. They are just superb. So, I would highly recommend to try their kebabs. As they are well cooked, rich in flavor and full of taste. I tried chicken bunna which was disappointing, not at all up to the mark, so not my recommendation list. Rest, seekh kebab roll was a hit. Rumali rotis are good in size and fulfilling. I tried their Chicken Baida Roti, which his staff suggested us, it was nice crispy, big roti filled with minced chicken, but some garam masala was very prominent in taste which was not very pleasing  but it was ok overall.

Things I tried: Chicken Reshami Tikka, Seekh Kebab roll, Chicken Tikka, Seekh Kebab, Chicken Baida Roti, Chicken Bhunna and Rumali Roti.

Will I visit again: Yes

Total rating: 4/5
                                                    Chicken Reshami Tikka
                                                    Chicken Seekh Kebab Roll
                                                      Chicken Seekh Kebab Roll
                                           Chicken Bhunna and Rumali Roti

My opinion and words are not biased and the review is totally based on my experience at the restaurant. But rightly said, “Food is subjective and everyone has own taste” so kindly exercise your own discretion, with the understanding that this is reviewer’s personal opinion.
