4.0/5
Joshi House reminds me of a place where classical architecture meets modern art. The facade is very minimal and can be missed if you’re not looking carefully. Situated on the ever so busy Pali Hill road, it is a cozy atmospheric place filled with elegance and charm. The decor is white and embroidered with carefully placed art pieces like quirky flower vases.
Food is as expected quite exquisite. The place is quite famous for its chefs. The carefully done dishes are set apart quite easily and the touch of decadence is very satisfying. It is on the expensive side so be prepared for spending a little extra. It is an experience however. I have been there on two occasions and have been quite pleased with the presentation of food on ever so beautiful cutlery. One area i would like to see improvement is the dessert. I had ordered the raspberry and dark chocolate, pretty safe choice but i had expected a little more creativity from this department. The coconut touille was tasty but could not marry the two wonderful elements together and failed to accentuate the dish. Overall a good gastronomical experience. I would love to try more dishes from here. As should anyone who is looking for places to try in Bandra, this one is a must try.
As you follow the google maps you could certainly miss the destination with a non descript outdoors. However one is pleasantly surprised on entering indoors. Joshi House stands out as an exquisite pet-friendly restaurant with its elegant interior, adorned with vintage black and white photos, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The minimalist decor adds a touch of sophistication, while customers appreciate the clean and comfortable environment. It seamlessly blends a traditional Rajasthani haveli aesthetics with contemporary charm. The bohemian atmosphere of cushions, flowery murals transports people to an ambiance of a havelis courtyard. The staff's attentiveness and friendliness contribute to the overall positive dining experience.
The multi-cuisine menu at Joshi House is a culinary delight, featuring signature dishes. We ordered an avocado and orange salad , butter calamari , pasta for our younger one and some neer dosas with ghee roast prawns. 🍤. Yumm. The attention to detail extends to custom made furniture , light fixtures, rugs and to create an immersive experience for patrons. We decided to sit near the bar area as we had our pet with us and enjoyed ourselves thoroughly where heritage , artisan shop and culinary innovation are embodied. Obviously this makes it slightly expensive place.
An absolute class apart, nestled in Pali Hill Bandra, the hype surrounding this place is so real! Zomato has underrated this restaurant, the good vibe is matched by excellent food and tasteful presentation! We tried the Laal Maas, Prawn Pepper Masala and the Avocado on Sourdough (called something fancy), there’s a great wine list to accompany these delightful meals as well! Had a great experience, would definitely visit again! The homemade Ghevar in the end, topped off with cream, ended the experience on a lovely note!
Tucked in the busy lanes of Pali Hills, Joshi House is a fantastic place to pamper your taste buds for some authentic Indian and international cuisines. The ambience is classy, staff is friendly and food is great! They have a great selection of wine too. Overall, we had a great experience.
Loved the vibe.... Food taste and presentation. This is my new favourite. Fact that they have managed to attract the attention of all by creatively recreating the Desi food with style, elegance and finesse says it all... The management, chef get 💯💥 points for tht. The place is WINE 🍷 and dine .... variety is fab... The cocktailz with wine are irresistible
The experience keeps scaling up as you enter, get served and finally eat.
- The ambiance and decor is elegant, beautiful with an old vintage charm.
- The service is really good, waiters are helpful, polite and attentive
- The food is perfect - We ordered the pesto avocado toast - was yummy and fresh with the pesto giving it a flavour kick; cheese garlic naan with paneer khurchan and dal makhani. Everything tasted amazing. Sadly we were full so could not get their desserts but they had an amazing collection.
- they have a really good collection of wines, particlulary led.
Have been visiting Joshi House for a long time, but finally putting in review, one of best places to enjoy your meal with family and friends. The pizza was soooo good and love Ghevar, have been ordering it evetytime.

I would suggest they would look into expanding their vegetarian main course menu options

A Fortuitous Culinary Adventure at Joshi House with a Slight Room for Improvement!
My Brief Reflections on Joshi House
It's often said that the best experiences in life are unplanned, and I couldn't agree more, especially after my unexpected but incredibly gratifying encounter with the culinary masterpieces at Joshi House. An otherwise ordinary day turned into a delightful adventure when I accompanied a friend to pick up his generous order of Joshi House's exquisite croissants.
As we arrived at the venue, the sight that greeted us was tantalizing. Nestled in the neat packaging were these perfectly crafted pastries, their aroma wafting into our senses, promising an experience that would linger for days. The allure was so overwhelming that I found myself compelled to acquire the last two pieces they had available. Little did I know then that this impulse purchase would leave me singing praises of Joshi House.
Every bite into the croissant was an encounter with culinary perfection. The pastry was flawlessly baked, tender and flaky, generously filled with a rich buttercream that oozed delight with each bite. A lavish layer of chocolate cream dressed the top, forming a delectable harmony of flavors. The final touch of elegance was a half-cut hazelnut carefully placed on the chocolate cream - a vision as beautiful as it was delicious.
I'd be remiss if I didn't express my heartfelt admiration for the talented team of chefs at Joshi House. Their skilled craftsmanship is a testament to their culinary expertise, a symphony of passion and perfection harmonized in their creations. A special mention of gratitude goes to Head Chef Jasirah, whose invaluable recommendation led us to this mouth-watering discovery. Joshi House management deserves commendation for fostering an environment that nurtures such exceptional talent and quality, resulting in truly magnificent food experiences.
Equally deserving of appreciation is my friend, who inadvertently introduced me to these divine croissants. Had he not placed that order, I might have remained oblivious to this gastronomic gem in our city. This delightful encounter has only intensified my curiosity and anticipation for what else Joshi House, along with its sister brand, Javaphile, housed within my gym, has to offer.
However, the otherwise stellar experience had a minor blip in the form of an interaction with a valet staff member. While his request for us to move our car was understandable, it was the tone that left something to be desired. I humbly request the management to remind their staff about the importance of maintaining a polite demeanor, as it significantly impacts the overall customer experience.
To all those fortunate enough to read this review, I cannot recommend Joshi House strongly enough. The journey of flavors their magnificent croissants take you on is a must-experience for any food lover. Trust me, you'll find yourself thanking not only the creators of this delightful pastry but also the universe for leading you to it.

Ghevar special with Rabdi fresh fruit anjeer and pistachio was tastiest heavenly experience
A must try to Indian desert lovers ..
The food is good. There are interesting innovative options in the snack department. Presentations are nice and the food comes out pretty quickly. The only point that I would make is that the restaurant needs better signage. A little plaque on a side wall invisible from the street does not help non-locals.
If you are looking for Bandra's most happening eatery place, then Joshi House should be on your list. I visited this place twice and both times the food was different and yum . This place is a perfect blend of that instagramable cafe along with modernistic vibe with a touch of contemporary artefacts and murals. The lovely vibes of the place make it a go-to place for celebs, family and friends.
The food at Joshi House is undoubtedly delicious and authentic, and I would give it a 10/10 rating. The chef has even given his special touch to street food like chat and kachoris. During my visit with my family, we ordered salads, soup, few starters, main course and desserts, and everything was very tasty and nicely presented.
However, the prices at Joshi House are quite extravagant, but the quantity of food served ummm less... The sitting area is impressive, with options for outdoor, indoor and upper floor seating, giving you a desi look.
The service at Joshi House is great, and overall, it was a lovely experience. Prior table reservations are a must, and valet parking is available. If you are looking for a place with great food and a chic ambiance, Joshi House is the place to go.
Great vibes. Aesthetically designed and elegant theme. Overall great food, great service and wonderful hospitality.
You name it, from west indian to South to north indian cuisine, to modern european, they hv covered you all.
If you are a wine lover and want great value for money wines, they have a exhaustive menu. Do try out.
Well ambience wise this place definitely makes a mark. Loved the place. The food is also Good. More like a dating place I would say. I Lil on the pricier side. Visited during night time would like to visit during day time as well
The location is little odd as it's in a middle of a busy street and one may even skip the place out of sight coz there is no sign board.. only a small name plate at the entrance. But the place itself is fantastic.. it has very positive vibes and very cosy. Though the table for two are too small I feel as it was uncomfortable but they were kind enough to change it for us. The staff is very kind and helpful. The food is okay.. I mean there are very less options for vegetarians and no options in rice dishes so was little meh but the overall experience was good.. recommended dishes are pad thai noodles and saag palak
A very nice place to dine on world fusion cuisine. Plenty to choose from across Turkish, Asian and Continental etc. Excellent execution - kind to the palate, excellent taste, presentation. Service is professional. Ambience is also good, except for one thing which gets my goose- the ambient music - Frank Sinatra's music is not meant to be played at higher decibels. They serve only wine and some unique wine-based cocktails in the evening ( no hard liquor or beer - which maybe the reason why there was hardly any crowd at dinner primetime!)
A rare find on my last trip to Mumbai. It is an assortment of fusion food but no matter what you eat, it is delicious. We had the salmon and ponzu, kashmiri mutton, jhingaa in coriander sauce and I forget everything else. Immaterial of the food ordered, everything was great. The dessert had a wonderful vegan option and even that was yummy. Loved the coconut creme brulee and the hazelnut dessert.
They have a great wine selection and a wonderful ambience. The servers were very knowledgeable and gave us great recommendations for food and wine. Also the cost is perfect for the fine dine restaurant it is. I am definitely going back again, loved the experience.
