White Charcoal inside Hotel Empresa is an impressive fine dine place with lovely classy decor and huge seating arrangements. The staff is polite and courteous. The place is insanely clean and felt good as soon as we entered. We were a group of 5-6 friends who were looking for a nice classy place to enjoy our Sunday Brunch. And WC was definitely a good pick.
Food on our plate.
**Coolers**
Coconut Cooler - Amazing flavour of coconut fused with watermelon juice, a slice of watermelon and a cherry on top :)
Kiwi Cooler - Loved this drink. A total green drink with lots of mint leaves, ice cubes, kiwi fruit and kiwi syrup with some sparkling water.
Peach Iced Tea - Another great pick. We all loved this one. Nothing fancy about it, but the taste of peach was outstanding.
Mango Cooler - This drink was pink in color, probably some syrup add on but it delivered a clean mango taste. Nothing more, pure mango.
**Starters**
Korean Bean Sprout Salad - Lettuce Iceberg, Rollo, cherry tomatoes, bean sprouts mixed well with ginger lemon and soya dressing. Topped with a Lavash this light salad was a good start.
Minestrone Soup - A traditional Italian soup served with a delicious bread platter which had Olive Bread, Bread Rolls and Breadsticks.
Dimsum Gyoza Veg - Fresh Veggies and mushroom stuffed and steamed with gyoza sheets. Amazing in taste.
**Mains**
Grilled Atlantic Salmon - Herb crushed Salmon with broccoli florets, spaghetti aglio e olio topped with a delicious reduction of orange sauce. This was my fav dish of the brunch. Do try this one for sure.
Corn Polenta with Ratatouille Fungi e Ragu - Corn Polenta served on a bed of ratatouille and mushroom ragu. A definite hit dish. The Polenta tasted amazing and had a powerful crisp :)
Saufiyani Biryani - Biryani with well balanced garam masala and cottage cheese with some vegetables served with Raita and the ever awesome Mirch ka Salan. Loved the salan.
**Desserts**
Mango Cheese Cake - Honestly i'm not a fan of mango cheesecake, so this was just another dessert for me.
Tiramisu - Infused with Rum, this lovely Tiramisu made my day.
So we spent a good time eating delicious food and sipping on colorful coolers. Do visit this place if you are a brunch lover. Btw, we also ordered lamb chops which looked delicious. I don't eat lamb so cannot comment. Sharing some pics. Have a look.

Excellent hotel of this class kept extremely clean.
As for the hotel itself, from the kind, courteous, and friendly Staff, to the meticulous, comfortable rooms with very well equipped kithen, cosy common areas - our experience was nothing less than exceptional. the restaurant very flexible (appreciate this!) and the restaurant supervisor deserves a special thanks. Food is really authentic which obviously also added up to the experience. Beach and supermarket is within short walking distance (just a few minutes). Would definitely recommend to everybody! Atmosphere is so special that it really felt like home to me. All respect for the Mr. Amit Thakur & Mr. Faizan Kazi & Team who does a great job here; a true sample of excellent hospitality!
Good ambience and awesome food...service excellent.
Amazing food .. good hospitality, lovely ambience ���
An open air restaurant located inside the premises of Empress hotel just in front of the entrance gate. Valet is available in the hotel premises.
The price of food and beverages are normal. The entire restaurant has been decorated with a green architecture with a wall dedicated to plants and creepers. A perfect place to take picture.
A giant screen is available in the middle of the restaurant and thus can be a great place during top sporting events.
The waiters are very polite and helpful. However they need to be bit more attentive as finding them at times was difficult as they were not making eye contacts
Tried their peri peri chicken that was above average. In the main course I tried grilled chicken and mushroom sizzlers served with rice made in Oriental style. It was indeed very tasty. In Sizzlers they have options to make it in Oriental or Mediterranean style. In Oriental it’s severed with rice while in Oriental Spaghetti is used. The patron can also choose between French fries or potato wedges or mashed potatoes as the side.
I went in here reading it’s a Spanish place although it turned out to be different. Overall I believe a great place to hang out with friends at a budgeted price
Went there after seeing many positive reviews and because of the zomato delight offer and was not disappointed at all. The ambience is amazing. It's an open restaurant with plenty of fresh air. It has dim lights at the perfect amount that makes you feel comfortable. Service was on point. We ordered tossed chicken momos (complimentary beverage was inclusive) , chicken sizzler in Mushroom sauce (best sizzler I had) and chocolate brownie. After eating all this our final bill was 1500 and after zomato's offer it was around 1000. Trust me considering the location and vibes , it's a deal you can't miss and if taken won't forget.
Nestled within the grounds of Empress Hotel, Loco Loca offers an enchanting open-air dining experience just steps away from the hotel's entrance. The ambiance sets the stage for a memorable evening, allowing guests to enjoy the al fresco atmosphere while savoring delectable dishes.
The menu at Loco Loca boasts a standard of food quality that truly stands out. From the first bite to the last, each dish exudes flavor and freshness, delighting the palate with every mouthful. The prices align with expectations, offering value for the exceptional dining experience.
Two standout dishes, the Mushroom Sizzling served with rice and the Grilled Chicken, are definite must-tries. The sizzling aroma and taste of the mushroom dish combined with perfectly cooked rice create a harmony of flavors. Meanwhile, the Grilled Chicken captivates with its tender texture and expertly seasoned taste.
Whether it's a casual evening or a special occasion, Loco Loca provides a gastronomic haven where impeccable food meets a charming ambiance.
This restaurant is amazing. The open ambiance concept is good. We loved the vibe here. The food over here is very tasty. We had:
Charcoal nachos
Pizza
Peri peri French fries
Walnut brownie
The charcoal nachos is must💯
Recommend this place to visit!🥰
Located at ground level of the Empressa Hotel, Andheri West, would say this would be a great place to spend your evening catching up with friends. However since the place is open it can warm especially during the day. We went there for lunch, though there are coolers placed everywhere. The ambience is nice and vibrant. They served modern indian continental, Italian and Mexican dishes.
We tried the following dishes -
Firstly was Khopoli Croquettas - nice fusion of Vada Pav in form of fried croquettes served along with mint chutney. Next we tried the Corn Cheddar Fritters. As name suggests corn fritters stuffed with cheddar cheese served along with jalapeno sour cream. Moving to mains, we called for the Farmer's Pizza topped with mushrooms, corn, onions, bell pepper, etc. Pizzas are thin crust!
All in all a decent experience at Loco Loca. As mentioned earlier, great to visit in evenings, especially with lights on. Do pay a visit!
Had a lovely lunch at locolocabistro at Andheri West
They have a huge spacious outdoor seating and breathtaking ambience.
Food and mocktails were amazing.walnut brownie desert is must try!!!
Lovely place to spend time with friends or family.
We were here on a treat from a friend on account of his bday. The place was quite empty and seats were easily available. I would give a benefit of doubt for it being a Monday. Coming to the ambiance, it's nice and spacious. You have an open roof concept. High chairs and regular sitting. We ordered Chef's special Nachos, Peri Peri chicken and few mocktails. The service is a bit slow in my opinion. Food tasted well. You may choose this place for a relaxed evening with friends.
Loco Loca is located on the Sab TV lane in andheri Lokhandwala. The Ambiance is cool with good and soothing music and vibes. The open space and bright colors make the place more stunning.
Coming to Food and drinks -
Mocktails -
1. Blueberry and basil lemonade
2. Strawberry and chocolate shake.
Food -
Appetizers -
Harissa Prawns skewers - They were so tasty and delicious. Perfectly cooked served with beetroot sauce.
BBQ chicken wings - Chicken was tender and the sauce was so delicious making them more tasty.
Mains -
Chicken Overload pizza - The amount of chicken sausages were generous and the best part was cheese. Must have. Highly recommended.
Aglio olio spaghetti -
Ordered for veg spaghetti. Not so spicy. Good taste.
Desserts -
The best part
I ordered for the signature dessert whisky and smoke which was basically chocolate coated cigar. The presentation was great. Highly recommended.
Overall, an amazing place to be with your friends for any occasion. The decor is mind blowing. They have IPL live screening too. Service was good and the staff was helpful and friendly.
Outdoor dining is the new thing, majority of the people prefer this nowadays. This place gets 5/5 for ambience. That big wall with all leafs makes this place more attractive. Open kitchen, perfect lights, high tables & huge screen all this elements makes this even more beautiful.
Menu has ample of variety. They have Italian & maxican cuisine. Names might be confusing but just like other premium restaurants here also the service was excellent, avesh helped me in selecting the top items. We had plenty of items here like - Shish tawook, Char chicken tacos, peri peri chicken tikka pizza, sandwich bbc, chocolate shake, passion fruit & chilli.
Among all the dishes we order my favorite was sandwich bbc. It was same like chicken baida roti which we get at kabab place. Tacos was nice but the salsa was prepared in house so i didn't liked it that much. Pizza was nice as i thought it might be out of the box but it was nice & taste was common.
Then we ordered 2 dessert - whiskey smokey cigar & choco cookie ice-cream with fruits. choco cookie was the best dessert so far, ice-cream on top with a muffin filled with chocolate. I am in love with this dessert.
Overall it's a beautiful place to eat, drink or to smoke hookah. Place is pretty big so no problem of waiting i guess. Service & food quality is of top notch. Food will not dissapointed you. Must visit.
Pretty ambience and perfect for the upcoming Valentines week. We visited here on rose day. The decor was amazing and the staff was very welcoming. Service was quick and we tried some great food here. The place is spacious and has great lighting in the noon and evening. Where as at night it has a dim set up which is quite cozy and you’ll definitely have a good time here.
We tried the brownie shake, peri peri pizza, chicken tacos and rose tres leches with strawberry the Valentine dessert which is available for the whole week it was super cute and tasted amazing.
This place is amazing! The food is good and the ambience radiates positive vibes! If you love sun, the place is right for your brunch!
Recommended: Wood fire baked pizzas, Cocktails, Breakfast Menu, Smoothies and so on! The place is on lower ground and is wheelchair accessible too!
So last night I went here with my couple of friends as I heard alot about this place so we went here in the evening and we ordered:-

Went to this place for a dinner and it was absolutely delightful. this one was a open air cafe with good deals on booze and world cup screening. We ordered wood fired pizza which was the best thing about our dinner. Cocktails were good but can be better. Other good dish was loaded nachos. Those charcoal flavoured Nachoa were very good.
Place had a comfortable seating arrangement and staff was polite and service was upto the mark.
Their newly launched a pastries were absolutely amazing and must try.
Overall a very good place and can be definitely considered for a place to go.
Loco Loca is a cordial, lively place located on the ground floor of The Empresa Hotel. The ambiance of this place is characterized by its open air kitchen and it's enticing canopy. The Spanish and Italian folk music playing in the background incites feelings of cravings and euphoria. The place is embellished with an amazing set up in the dining area with spacious seating. On top of that, the dessert bar with an amazing line up of sweet treats and confectionery adds to the charm.
The bistro makes you feel in your element with their camaraderie. The atmosphere of this place and the crew connive to make the customer feel like a huésped as they embrace them to their ménage.
The service was pretty good. Our table was hosted by Mr. Rahul, Mr. Nikhil and Mr. Vishal. They helped us out in selecting the dishes and were very friendly. The restaurant being an part of The Empresa, has to manage the hotel guests along with the adventurous diners who visit the place. So it may take a while to get what you order but the food is totally worth the wait.
They serve a variety of dishes from the Mediterranean and North Indian Cuisine. The menu is pretty elaborate and covers a lot of palatable dishes with top class presentation. The chefs collude to serve appetizing and innovative dishes to appease the diners and bring a smile of satisfaction on their faces.
Our table was festooned with salads, burgers, appetizers, risotto and desserts.
We started off with 'Feta & Co. '. It's a salad constructed with the Greek Feta and a combination of fresh fruits and mixed greens. The salty and tangy taste of Feta combined with the flavours of fresh fruits and avocado makes it one of the finest salads in the menu.
The 'Supreme Crisp Burger' had the perfect cohesiveness between the amount of bun, meat and toppings. It was a merger of the chicken supreme patty, onion rings with the side of potato wedges. The bun was nicely toasted to hold up the patty. The quality of the meat used was top class which made the burger very juicy.
We also had 'Easy green Burger' which was served with a side of potato wedges and salads. It had a delectable taste.
Mediterranean food is more than just pizza and spaghetti, for a change, we ordered 'Grilled Portobello & Asparagus Risotto'. It was ambrosial! Amazing taste. The 'Potato Mille-Feuille' was very appetizing. The combination of fried potatoes and wild mushrooms with parmesan ragoût made it delicious!
We had a few beverages here: 'Passion Fruit Chilli Lemonade' and 'Blueberry & Basil lemonade'. They were very refreshing. The passion fruit chilli tasted really good. It had a spicy twist to it.
They serve some of the most bewitching and delicious desserts. We had 'Hazelnut Mousse' and 'Chocolate Chip Cupcake'. The Hazelnut mousse is one the best desserts I've had in a while. It tasted heavenly with a the base made of chocolate crumbs. The cup cake tasted alright. I liked the Mousse more.
Mediterranean food is one of those cultural elements that have felicitously helped to preserve the special nature of the Mediterranean.
When it comes to Mediterranean Cuine, Loco loca is definitely one of the best places in town.
Loco loco is located in the heart of Mumbai, Andheri Lokhandwala. The restuarant is design in a very nice matter. A great design and concept of architectural view is presented here. The restuarant is combined with the Empressa Hotel. Loco Loca has a great and positive ambience ad it feels very amazing. They servers one of the best dishes and each and every dish was extremely of high quality and presentation was really great. The staff is very good and helpful. The attendees were very nice and polite. I didn't remember the name of the attender but whatever is the name but the service was of very prestigious.
Coming to food review,
The dishes we ordered are,
Drinks :
1. Bella Rosa - This was really fresh and refreshing with sangria. The sangria traditionally consists of red wine and chopped fruit, often with other ingredients or spirits.
2. Shake Brownie - If you need a chocolate infusion (and really, who doesn't?), this delectable Chocolate Brownie Milkshake is for you. Using a blender, combine chocolate ice cream, brownies, milk and chocolate syrup. The piece of brownie was placed on the top of the glass and the presentation was completely looking lavishing.
Starter :
1. Paneer Skewers - This quick vegetarian main is perfect for weeknights - grill skewers of paneer cheese and veg, then serve with a fruity avocado salsa
2. Loaded Nachos -(RECOMMENDED) Is there anything more satisfying than a loaded tray of nachos. The best and the most satisfing dish in terms of taste & presenation.
Main Course :
1. Peri Peri Chicken Tikki Pizza -(RECOMMENDED) Peri Peri Chicken Pizza - Worth a try! ... The taste was savoury, with the right amount of cheese, and the pizza base was not too thin and crusty nor too thick. I love the amount of tomato and chicken, and the sauce too.
2. BBC - Bombay Baida Chicken Sandwich - (SUPER DUPER RECOMMENDED) Can't even elaborate the taste of this dish but the receipe feeling is very amazing endless wowness. The recipe of the gravy which is stuff is extremely lavishing.
Dessert :
1. Molten Chocolate Lava - (HIGH RECOMMENDED) the molten hot chocolate has bittersweet mocha syrup and chocolate chips that are melted into steamed milk. This has a slightly bitter taste for hot chocolate, and has a richer flavor than the other two drinks. It tastes the most like deep, dark chocolate. A big plus for serious chocolate lovers.
2. Chocolate Cookie Cup - A normal vinalla icecream placed in the cookie cup looks normal but the taste is very exquisite. Even it was decorated with decorated with milk chocolate sauce from the top.
Conclusion : Overall the experience over here is superb, the feeling is very rich due to attractive ambience. The decor is very nice and appreciate the concept. Very good in service, nice in taste, persentation was great. Even the attendee is very humble, really sorry as I forgot the name of the attendee but he is very good and attended very well. Thank You.

Loved it!!!
