Operating since 1996 inside a historically preserved building, the restaurant complements its core menu with a dedicated vegan selection and Bombay street food like bhel puri and samosa chaat. The kitchen also turns out soft uttappams and finishes meals with traditional filter coffee. It is a lively, easygoing space where decades-long regulars and newcomers gather for consistently flavorful cooking and warm service.
