Gafe gulshan the most oldest irani cafe and restaurant locates in mutunga mumbai.
The place is quite nice with good interior and proper seating arrangement and polite staff members.
This place serves one of best chinese dishes and the bun maska, kheema paav are mindblowing.
I would love to rate this place with 4.5☆ rating for taste and ambience
I love the taste of biryani and quantity is also good and it is near my college and staff is good

Mutton Kheema was outstanding. It tasted very different from the typical Kheemas which you find at other places. The taste is a perfect blend of spices and meat and whether you eat with pav, chapati or rice, it will work wonderfully. I was also impressed with Roasted Chicken option in Triple Schezwan Rice as it tasted very well, quantity was quite good and I loved the overall experience. The food at Café Gulshan will definitely make you order again from them.
Cafe Gulshan is an Irani Cafe in the heart of Matunga. It serves the always tasty bun maska with pani kum chai as well as chicken kheema ghotala which is one of my favourite dishes and a must try there. Also on the menu are the Chinese delicacies, biryanis etc. It also includes a juice center where you will find different kinds of juices, milkshakes and even protein shakes for all you fitness freaks. A legendary cafe, it is a must try!!
I have spent three years of college life in this cafe, have many important memories attached to this place :)
Great place to catch up with friends.!
Amazing food, extremely pocket friendly, ice cream soda is a must try along with butter chicken Biryani!
This place is old, adjoining Welingkar College and one of the very few that serves meat on the menu, in the mostly veg vicinity.
The wait staff are uninterested in serving customers and will need loads of training to be considered polite.
The cooks seem to have violent mood swings - some days the food is good, other days unpalatable.
The Biryani is lousy. The Kheema gotala is a joke.
Their bun maska is fairly okay.
This place is located near Matunga Railway station, one of the famous place here. They serve Chinese, Indian and many more cuisines. Their Famous Kheema pav is really tasty. Must try
One of the best restaurant for breakfast/snacks. Ambience of regular restaurant nothing fancy. Food served here is really good, must try dishes here are mutton kheema Pao, bun muska chai and caramel custard. My personal favorite is mutton kheema pao.
The food here has always been consistent in terms of quality and pricing. Expect to find a lot of college students here. But there is a mixed crowd too. The kheema pao is really good here as is the chicken triple schezwan rice. The eatery is located only 5 minutes away from Matunga station (CR) and is next to Wellingkar Institute.
The best irani chai in Matunga.
This is our local joint to have lunch once our colg is over.
Chinese dishes are recommended. Even the tea and coffee is nice.
The quick bites which is outside the cafe is nice and yummy.
A really good and pocket friendly place to go to 😊
Best keema pav plus low budget.right place you would be is cafe gulshan.good hygeine and cooperative staff and to be more specific fast service.we loved every hit of keema.
Cafe gulshan onr of the oldest place with nice old retro ambience in matunga area the place is quite spacious with good seating arrangement and quick service. Well I order the triple chicken schezwan rice and paneer chilly. Thr cost was also reasonable with nice quality and quantity.
This restaurant right opposite to Welingkar college is a great place to soak in the ambience of the old Parsi restaurants and their amazing history. We had to try the kheema pav here and we were not disappointed by the deliciousness that arrived. The triple schezwan rice is also something that you can order with their generous sized portions, it will surely fill you up.
I visited here yesterday, and was great Lunch with my Friends. This is old Iranian Restaurant. Special for Kheema Pao and Custard. Great Staff. And Ambience was good too. The Big Seats are conjusted. Pocket Friendly Restaurant. Should try out here too!!..
Amazing mutton kheema pav! A definite must have.
One of the other advantages of eating in Cafe Gulshan is their super fast service and their super pocket friendly prices.
Having a lunch here won't dig a hole in your pocket!
We recently visited this place and tried butter chicken with biryani rice and caramel custard , trust me , the chicken was roasted to perfection and the gravy was well seasoned, and the combination of that with biryani rice was delicious , it does not have a fancy ambience like any 5 star hotel but more like a "regular college hangout cafe" and gives you more of a home-like feeling , thankyou for our superb hosts Mr.Maysam and Mr.Brijesh. The staff was friendly and the place was hygienic too , also it has those typical wooden tables which you would find in an "old bombay" parsi cafe !
Our personal recommendations shall be - butter chicken+ biryani rice (new favourite ) , caramel custard , khema paav and chicken chilly .
An Irani restaurant which hasn’t changed thank god it’s flavour and ambience giving me the nostalgia is Cafe Gulshan. Little did I know that I’d find a old friend today there. The mutton kheema biryani with ice cream soda is a combo from past. The quantity is sufficient for two even if you take half Biryani. Even butter chicken Biryani is awesome. Top it up with caramel custard the old school way and you have a winner. All in all good value for time money and energy. I vouch for this place.
So ya,it's cafe Gulshan.Been there with family few days back.Very nice Ambiance with so kind staff.Tried very famous keema pav,chicken triple rice and drink.A good to hangout with family and friends and also so pocket friendly.
A nice place for your Bun Maska or Omlette Pav. They serve some sabji and ritis too. They also have a vast menu comprising veg and non veg dishes. Chinese food is too good out here. Its located adjacent to Wellingkers College. They have a good seating arrangement and I=once can find place most of the time. Over all very good food.
Visited this place many a time with friends and family the place is quite nice with good retro look ambince and the service staff is also very nice and kindly the chicken triple rice is the best dish from their menu similarly the popular one buun maska with chai is the best.
Best biryani i have ever tasted in my life . And literally they gave us a whole chicken along with the biryani. Coca cola also tastes good ♥️🔥
Pocket friendly restaurant. Most of the customers here are the students studying nearby. Serves really good Mutton Keema with Paav. Go for waffles if you're sugar toothed.
Tried their famous keema pav. It was very tasty and would recommend. Loved The caramel custard too. It was fresh and had the perfect consistency. Quite affordable place
Very old school place. Don't expect modern service but they have good eggs and kind waiters. Best visited in evening time because this old Irani cafe does not have ac. Though it might be the best bet for you if you want eggs in this area .
Classic old school ambience .. a good blend of Popular Indian dishes and western food is on the cards , the taste is really amazing ,tried multiple non veg dishes and faloodas,the taste has always been a delite ,quiet popular amongst college teens as there are many colleges around , parking space is limited
So we ordered chinese egg fried rice the price was great according to the serving size and also ordered some virgin mojitos plain and blue lagoon they served as a great refreshments
What a beautiful vibe! Really tasty Kheema and Wafflatoon is a kick-ass concept. One must visit this place if you're around. Also please taste the chicken dum biryani and the butter chicken biryani.
The butter chicken in here is amazing and so is the kheema! A must visit place for chicken lovers! The Chinese starters also are amazing! Do try the pastries here!
Very Nice cafe to go with friends, family.
Chicken Crispy is tasty there, but chicken chilly was not good. Variety of fried rice and noodles are served.
Make sure that, there is NO TANDOORI ROTI !
So if you are planning for lunch/dinner ,then you should either eat rice/noodles/starters or gravy's can be have with Paav.
Taste : 4/5
Quantity : 4.5/5
Quality : 4/5
I was Ruia student so, Cafe Gulshan is like my every day thing. Undoubtedly Gulshan Cafe is the best option for nonveg food in that area. The ambiance of this cafe is kinda vintage, and you can get delicious food at reasonable prices.
Must try dishes: Butter chicken with chapatis, Kheema Pao & biryani. And also it is famous for their chai and bun maska.
This place always reminds me of my college day. I just love their kheema pav and daal fry combo. So much so that I actually got a parcel and ate my heart out at home !
Visited this place in matunga a few days ago and had keema pav and biryani there. Both the dish were outstanding. Just loved the taste. It was one of the most amazing restaurants that I have ever visited. I will recommend you all to taste the food of this irani restaurant in Matunga East area.
One of the most iconic cafe serving the best Carmel Custard in Matunga. It is really a very small cafe serving tasty food since many years. Have been visiting this place since many years and this place has never disappointed me. Their service is really quick. I have almost tried their whole menu. I would suggest highly recommended dishes
Carmel Custard
Kheema Pav
Bun Maska
Chai
Scramby Eggs
When in Matunga surely visit this place!
Awesome place. Pocket-friendly and tasty. Try the boiled egg bhurji, brun pav and scrambled egg with daal. There's plenty of options and all are gud.

Cafe Gulshan - Matunga
If you are fan of Irani cuisine then this would be probely one of best place amongs Irani joints in Mumbai.. just besides welingkar/ Poddar collage. Very much accessible location .. Surprised to see Family crowd at dinner along with Collage going student.. Very much pocket friendly. You can eaisly end up with 400-500 for 2 people.. They have separate counter for Ice cream, cakes and pestries🍥🧁🍰🎂🍮🍭🍬🍪🍧🍨🍧😀😀
*Now about food* 🥓🥩🍖🍗🌭🍟🥙🥗🌯🥙🍟🍔🌭🍳🍳🥚🍳
Seems they have speciality in Mutton dishesh... But I have ordered Egg masala 🥚🍳🥚and chicken chilli oysters 🍖🍗🍲🍛... 😀... Boh we're awesome....but surely try mutton kheema... Their speciality😋😋🥩🥓
*Negative🌚🌚🌚*
# As all Irani joints you may find Issue with Service.. but staff were very much co-operative.. Only lack of attentiveness😓🤦♂🤦♀
# Little noisy
😫😣😖📢📢📢📢📣📣

Ambiance :- 3/5 (Typical as Irani restarents) 👍
Food :- 3/5 😊👍
Service :- 2.5/5 (Little Lethargic) 😖
Value for Money :- 4/5 ⭐😀👍
If you are at Matunga area and you enjoy Non-vegitarian food then Worth trying atlest Once.. followed by lovely pestries and Ice creams😀🍧🍨🍨🍨🍰🥞🍮 🥩🍖🍗🥩🥙🥪🥘🍤🥚🍳🥚
One of the not most known Cafe’s in Mumbai. I don’t understand why this place is a quite secret to all Parsi food lovers.
The feel of this place is lika a traditional Irani Cafe with the rickety wooden chairs and glass mounted tables. The menu also quite resembles the typical Irani Cafe menu. Maska pav, Mutton Cutlets, Maggi etc are some of their most sought items.
I ordered the Mutton Kheema Gotala. The quantity justifies the price which is a bit high. The taste was quite good as the addition of the soft scrambled egg makes you want one morsel after Another.
Been a big fan of this place since my college days. All time favourites Bun maska and adraki chai is a must try! Nonveg lovers just go for the kheema pav. I bet its the best kheema you would have ever had. They do have good Chinese dishes too. 😊
This Irani restaurant is located in the heart of Matunga. Located right next to Wellinker, Podar and diagonally Opposite Matunga Gymkhana, this place is the perfect place for a quick Chai, Bun Maska, omelette after a Morning sport.
Being a man from Matunga, this is a local joint for me as I frequent it after sports at least twice a week for a quick round of snacks. This restaurant serves a wide variety of dishes be it Mughlai veg and Non veg. It’s generally at peak capacity during most of the day with the 3 colleges next to it. Turnover is quick, but some just prefer to sit and have a rather slow bite chatting alongwith friends.
This place serves the tastiest food in Matunga and have visitors from far off suburbs and town here.
A must visit for the delicious food they serve. It’s open till late in the night. Almost 11:30pm and you may still find people around here.
A good joint for sumptous meal... or even snacks... My favourites here are combo meals, chai and brun muska... kheema pao... Their highlight is ice cream or raspberry soda...the signature item of all Iranian Cafes... Their food has been highlight in the area as it is off beat compared to other South Indian or Vegetarian joints...
The food was very warm when it comes..the packaging of food was proper and attractive.
Ordered following items from here:
Caramel custard
Bun maska
Biryani
Chai
Muttons kheema
Butter chicken
Dal khichdi
Cafe gulshan the most oldest and the famous resturnt in matunga to have a great breakfast and lunch with great taste and amazing customer service.The special bun masks with Irani chai is the most famous dish of the cafe gulshan.The cost is also resinable
My first bhurji experience was here and it was just awesome. Then the bun chaska was too tasty. Well after i finished it i wanted more😋. I am surely going to visit it the next time. Lastly the ambience is too classy, the old bombay type🙌.

After visited nearly all parsi restaurants in Fort,charni road n churchgate we decided to visit this less known but old n very popular in Matunga area especially among college going crowd as it s situated next to podar,ruia,welingkar! Also this s 1 of very few places which serves non veg in matunga area!!
This place s typical old parsi restaurants like others but they served more food options apart from parsi food.As they are very famous for their Dum biryanis n masala n offcourse for Irani chai so we decided to try biryani instead of trying typical n regular parsi food here! we ordered mutton kheema n chicken biryani n yes their biryani s pretty awesome n tasty n quantity s also more than any other parsi restaurants also the Irani chai s as good as other parsi hotels.
Our only disappointment s they said they dnt hav tht typical pallonji soda like other parsi restaurants instead they served some kashmira ice cream soda but tht too s good!
So,If you have love for typical parsi restaurants n their food you must visit this cafe at least once!!!
One of my favourite destinations to hog around! You wish for any dish from menu it will certainly win you heart with its taste and quality! We tried all the 3 different Biryani varieties and boy it didn’t disappoint at all. To taste it you have to visit it!
This place is my go to place whenever i am hungry. This place has never compromised on food...it is that good. We ordered chicken butter biryani and mutton kheema biryani both were to damn good and we liked it. People here were ordering bun maska with chai which is famous here. Do try their roasted chicken schezwan rice and kheema pav. Lolipops were not that good as we expected it to be. outer layer was too hard. In veg we ordered paneer crispy which was also good. Overall a place just for foodies. Irani cafes have tasty food thats for sure.
Rating :-
Paneer crispy :- 4/5
Chicken butter biryani :- 4/5
Mutton kheema biryani :- 4/5
Chicken Lolipop - 2.5/5

This quaint little cafe located near Matunga station is indeed a popular hangout spot for teens and elders alike .
Famed for its kheema Pav , Irani chai and caramel
Custard this one keeps the colonial era memories alive !
I had
1. Bun muska
2. Chilli chicken noodles
3. Gooey chocolate pastry
🔷 Bun Muska (20₹)
Freshly baked Pav slathered with butter , a yummy accompaniment with some Irani chai !🤤 However I found this one quite dry and the amount of butter is a bit less . Nevertheless it's good for a hangout session with your friends and chai ❤️
🔷 Chilli chicken noodles (214₹)
Filling , affordable and delicious, a must have when you get those hunger pangs ! Full of tender juicy chicken with the noodles done just right , I can keep having this one on and on !
🔷Gooey chocolate pastry (45₹)
Their dessert selection is beyond words . You are indeed confused whether you want an eclair , a donut or a pastry , everything is just as good !
They warm the pastry up just before serving and it is a chocolate explosion in your mouth . The perfect amount of sweet and loaded with ganache 💕
So if you just happen to pass by Matunga station ,give this place a visit .
The good food and the ambience will indeed transport you to some other era !🔥
This place is one of my meeting restaurants . The service here has always been slow...so we can use it to your advantage during a day when you want to sip a cup of tea and have a conversation with someone or a small business meet ...it's ideal..plus above average food...don't experiment here...the usuals are good..and don't expect a gourmet experience here...you will be happy with it while getting out.
It's just bedside welingkar college . Usually it's crowded. One of the best places to eat in the locality . The chicken varieties are very good specially butter chicken . Chinese food is also good . Average cost, average ambience but nice food .
This place has been in Matunga for years. There kheema pav is legendary! The quantity served here satisfies your pocket as well as your tummy! Chicken items are delicious so are the veg ones.
They still have icecream sodas there.
Also there caramel custard is delicious.
Best to go here for non veg binging! And great food!!
Mouth watering taste and loving atmosphere love to keep coming over here. Service of staff is very well and price are reasonable. One of the most visited place .
The nonveg platter is much more delicious than veg one. Chicken Biryani and Mutton Keema Biryani are worth a visit with half Biryani sufficient for one person. Also liked their mutton keema paav.
Gulshan Cafe is located in matunga Central walking distance from the station and close to college's like Welingkar, Poddar.
This is place is a heaven for people who are non veg lover, they do serve veg food. They serve right from Maggi to biryani. You can enjoy here Chinese, Mughlai, Indian, pastries and Ice Cream. They also have Franciee in option
