If you are in Kings Circle(Hub for South Indian Food), this is the place that is a must visit . Have been eating here since we were kids , and now we ourselves have kids !! Many places have opened and shut here in Matunga and its vicinity , but only the best survive. They did not have a physical copy of their menu card in my childhood days , and not much has changed even today. Their special items deserve a try.Quality has been consistently maintained over the years.No complaints as regards hygiene.A simple decor , good service. The family section is separate(UPSTAIRS) and there are sharing tables below.Its always a good place to visit for authentic south Indian Food that does not burn a hole in your pocket. The owner and his son maintain a good rapport with the customers. Any dosa and a coffee is a simple recommendation! SIMPLICITY IS THE ULTIMATE SOPHISTICATION here !
Hope this place continues this way for decades to come !!
FINAL VERDICT:
Food 5/5
Ambience 3.5/5
Service 4/5
VFM 5/5
Anand Bhavan serves THE best south indian food.. Be it sambar , the chutney , dosa , idli , vada , sabji n what not ...... If u are a fan of south indian food u can not afford to miss this place at all
May it be a quick snack, a heavy breakfast or a stomach-filling lunch/ dinner, South Indian Food is the best! This place is an old gem situated in Matunga. For many students, it is their adda. And why not! The place serves amazing South Indian food. From Sada Dosa to Mysore Masala, from Idli Vada to the delicious Pineapple Sheera- this place serves everything at very pocket-friendly rates starting at just 50rs. Well not to forget the highlight of this place is also their filtered coffee. After a long night out, this place will serve your hunger even at 5 am. A must visit and a perfect 5/5!
Anand Bhavan has been our go to Saturday morning breakfast place for the last couple of years. The fact that it is right at the circle definitely makes it more accessible. In general, I think the food here is one of the best when compared to other restaurants serving South Indian cuisine in the area (and there are plenty of them).Things you should definitely try here:The bun puri- its a sweetish puri with a little bit of coconut. Tastes quite good with the chutney. You are likely to get them hot and fresh early in the morning or around 4.30 - 5pm.The filter coffee, if you ask the server to make it strong.If you want to try something sweet, the pineapple sheera here is one of their most ordered sweet dishes.
Something they could be better:
The servers here sometimes have a habit of giving you your bill when you are having your coffee, assuming you are going to leave. This happened to once when I wanted to order more after the coffee and there were a lot of empty tables around.
Best South Indian recipes of Mumbai, with the taste, aroma and healthy food, for mind, body and soul.
Anand bhavan is located at matunga east . Mumbai . The ambience of the restaurant is also good and staff and food too . And that too at affordable prices .
Anand Bhavan is an institution and has been for a very long time. Needless to say that their food and ambience reflects an old world vibe. The food is really wholesome prepared fresh. Had been here on a Sunday and there always is line. Had the masala dosa, ulundu dosa and filter coffee. The masala was yum, ulundu dosa is basically an utappam topped with a dry masala and ghee. Filter coffee too was strong and fragrant
They should accept cards or app payments
Great place for South Indian food in Matunga! It's just opposite to the station and it's a normal place with good seating. The menu is very limited here and the taste is good but compared to other similar restuarants in the same area this place is not very much recommended! The dosa, pulao and coffee tasted good and the service by the staff was a bit of an issue
Another place which is always crowded. Dont miss their Filter coffee
, Rasam Vada, Rava Dosa as well as Neer dosa with coconut chutneys.

These delicious, authentic South Indian dishes from Anand Bhavan, Matunga @abmatunga that we ate over the weekend in Mumbai 😋
We equally love all the south indian places in Matunga. So we keep going on rotation basis (also on the basis of crowd and waiting time😛) We ate the following dishes 👇
Mysore rawa sada dosa : perfect texture, crispy with the absolutely delicious Mysore masala in it😋
Mangalore buns: these are one of the best buns I have had till now. These are sweetish thick kinda puris made from flour, banana, buttermilk and cumin
Biscoot roti: this is the Mangalorean version of a kachori, only difference is it has a savoury stuffing made of coconut with a basic masala tempering.
The all time favourite idli vada sambar which needs no description 😋😋 All the dishes were served with a coconut chutney and a lip smacking, piping hot absolutely out of the world delicious sambar/manglorean style kolambo.
This deserves all those praises !! I shamlessly drank 2 katoris of sambar like soup and the server might have been surprised when I asked for a 3rd one even after all the other food was over🤣🤣 This place is also famous for their pineapple sheera😋
They sell a lot of other snacks and podis too (Malpuas, ubbati being some of the famous ones)
If your in and around Matunga please do try!
Always a good idea to visit this place for authentic south Indian food. Would definitely recommend the masala dosa and buns and not to forget the filter coffee.
It does not accept credit cards
A really good authentic South Indian joint. You will definitely get a nostalgic feeling while entering. The waft of fresh idlis and dosas is so refreshing as you walk in, and the shelves of banana chips and murukku are so nice to see.
We ordered many dishes like Rasam Vada, Special Dosa, Idli Mulgapodi and all of them were superb. The rasam was nice and spicy, the dosa full of flavour and the idlis were so soft and delicate they almost melted in one's mouth! Finished it off with fresh coffee (it was my first time trying) and I absolutely loved it.
Ambience is great, and service was fast. Friendly servers as well. Overall an amazing experience and a must-try. Tick's off one item on the Mumbai Foodie List!
Today you have broken your own records in a way
I had softest and Best Vada Sambhar so far
Thank you Preetesh and Haridasji
Good Food Good Hospitality
Great place to be for south Indian food. you must try delicious Rava sada dosa, Idli chutney with rasam .Service is fast and cost effective.
One of the best south indian Restro in Matunga/king circle.. this is my fav place .. the interior is good.. even the waiters are polite but one negative thing is you have to wait outside restro in a queue ... Rest everything is perfect.
overall -4/5
A place located at king circle where you can fulfil your cravings for South Indian food. Medu wada and filter coffee a perfect combo also dosa's are good♥
So this is a simple South Indian outlet in Matunga. We tried different type of Dosas and all of them were good.
Even Idli vada was good. Since this is more of just break fast place you can't expect much. But still worth a try.
A typical #SouthIndian feasting mood is on with authenticity on a plate!💛
In frame:
•Stuff Rawa Biscuit Dosa
•Rasam-Idli
•Mysore Sada Dosa
•Tawa Pulao with Papad & Raita
And all dishes were accompanied with Sambhar & Coconut Chutney.

Another South Indian restaurant at Matunga Circle.
Not like the others in quality and authenticity, but still alright.
We tried their,
1) Neer Dosa (light and fluffy)
2) Filter Coffee (strong and tasty)
Ambience is simple, but could be cleaner. Service is fast and rates are reasonable.
The menu is displayed on the wall for you to choose.
They have, both the ground and first floors for seating.
Matunga’s the hub for South Indian Food paradise. Every 2nd restaurant competes with each other on which place serves the best South Indian Meal. Would suggest do not compare Just enjoy their specialities
I usually stop by Anand Bhavan every now and then to pack some mouth watering medu vadas. The pineapple sheera and filter coffee is amazing. We also regularly order from this place, the have quick service and are very professional.

This place is one of the best by far for some good simple authentic South Indian food.One thing i found good is they provide good quality and quantity in food which makes it totally worth!!
I tried out some of their speciality
Khotto idli (5/5) : These idlis are made in jackfruit leaves and which is why they have a different nice smell and taste from those leaves.It was served with red coconut chutney and sambhar. It is not like regular idlis these are not fluffy but tastes better with sambhar.
Veg Thali (5/5) : Though it may look simple and not fancy but thats the beauty of these south indian food. Eventhough the French beans sabji might looked just boiled but it was not.It was well cooked and sauted in oil with coconut and other spices. The roti was soft,with mouth watering rasam and sambhar.Also the sweet kheer had the right amount of sweetness.
Neer dosa (5/5) : Another simple yet tasty dish is this.It is soft and melts in your mouth. Best tastes with jaggery.
Overall
Food - 5/5
Ambience - 4/5
Value for money - 5/5
The food is awesome.you will get good quantity and quality of foods so must visit here.....

Another Great place for South Indian cuisines. This place serves the best chutney and Sambhar. Good diverse menu. It's a place worth for a shot
When Sunday lunch is at the place where you spent all your teenage years! 😍This is not a review but my sheer love for this place! ❤️ Places are set up and closed at Matunga every now and then. This place has not changed even a but, nor in taste nor interiors. As they say, simplicity is the best form of elegance! 💕
Ordered Upma Podi from here. The upma was very delicious and yum. Chutney was good to taste. The powder on upma is a bit salty and reminds u of vada pav chutney but i loved it
My all time favourite for weekend breakfast. Even the staff knows me well now :). My favourite food over here is EVERYTHING :D. Ask for Sukka (Dry) chatni whatever dish you order.
I like this hotel coz it has Appam in menu... Whereas i find it nower else... But they shud provide brown chana curry wid appam or stew... Instead of chutney n sambhar... I nver got dumplings in menu available... Please consider the both ... Thn u r the best 😊
We have travelled to Anand Bhavan since the last 20 yrs, because they make the most authentic idli and sambar in mumbai. Last week we were delighted to know that they had also started thalis. The thali was really good with huge portions that one person can barely finish.At Rs.110/- its the best deal around.I would have rated it 5* except for the shared seating system........otherwise its a must try.
Apart from the Strawberry Bizcocho, the other desserts are ok. The chocolate cake that I had ordered was hard and stale. We had also ordered a cappuccino and the after eight mint drink and the server let it sit for a good five minutes at the counter before he brought it to our table. He did offer to re heat it for us.
Located at the heart of kings circle, just opposite to garden this is the place which is my favourite from my childhood! Famous for its south Indian food.
Less of queue and good food.
Must visit once
Typical south indian food lovers place...!!
On a sunday evening thought of having south indian food, as i was near Matunga it always reminds me about Ramashray, Ayappam or Anand bhawan the best three places in Matunga to have south indian food. As it was a sunday evening both the places Ramshray and Ayappam had waiting of half and hour so thought of Anand bhawan where we got to seat in 20 mins.

This place offers a variety of South Indian dishes at affordable price and their chutneys both coconut and red one are very good.

Being a man from Matunga, this restaurant too has been my all time favourite. It’s located slightly inside the main Matunga Road from Kings Circle, and this is my favorite too. The restaurant is owned by the original South Indian residents of Matunga residing since generations.
This place is famous for its South Indian dishes like the Dosas, Idlis, Medu Vadas and other dishes. Their Upma is the beat I’ve ever had and I frequent this restaurant for this particular item. Their Uttapams are top notch. Flavour of their chutney and Sambar are distinct too and leave taste in your mouth.
This place too hasn’t changed in years and they have the typical feel of an old time South Indian restaurant but it gives a good feel. It’s traditional as I like to say. These people have been serving the localities as well as others the same way they used to decades ago. Polite and courteous, you get a good vibe while having a snack or a quick lunch.
Matunga east is very popular for its aunthentic south Indian restaurant and cuisine. And Anand Bhavan is one of the charming restaurant in matunga east. I have tried their idli vada and believe me I have never Aten such an idli which just melts in your mouth and the vada was so so good . This restaurant is serving from around 1940 and it would not be wrong to say that it is one of the finest south Indian food serving restaurant in matunga east. Would surely recommend this.
Matunga is quite famous for its very own authentic South Indian cuisines....
They have curated the flavours very well....
This restaurant is not exception...
The atmosphere here is crowdy ....a typical old restaurant...Nothing wow in ambience ..
But the Food is main USP...
They also serve authentic podi also famous as gun powder 😋, fried papad , chips etc.
You need to wait at least 15-30 min on routine day...the waiting time is more on holidays...
My most favourite dish is Bisibilli Bhat ( Consistency of Dal Khichdi ) a must try here
Don't forget to end your meal with Filter Kapi 😋
A healthy meal indeed. ...
Indulge with Podi ,. Chips at their counter and don't forget to take it home...
Book a day in lanes of Matunga for heavenly South Indian atmosphere on your next visit. ...
😋😋😋😋
This is nice old budget south indian cafe. Their service is prompt but not compromising in food quality. You will find ruckus happening around you because of so many people eating here. This place is very budget friendly
I have been visiting Anand Bhavan over the years. The have the best filter coffee (medium strong) in Matunga. Their special masala dosa and special ulundu are great. The restaurant is light on your tummy and pocket too. It's in evidently one of the jewels of Matunga.
It was 5 star experience because of simple Ambiance and Amazing food taste with high quality. It was worth it. Food prices are quite reasonable with the level of quality. Service were very quick and Filtet Kaapi & Bisi bele rise were mind blowing.

Ambience :
First thing first. This place me gives a feel of the 80s. May be due to the aroma of food it’s authentic village type taste or the people around here who are always smiling or specially famous personalities like Shashi Kapoor sahab who used to come here. Been here since my childhood.
Food :
I don’t know where to start from. But wd give it a try. Have tasted most of the items here. So let’s start! 😊
Upma:
Super soft n garam garam. You shd try it in the morning 8 a clock. Upma has the perfect seasoning of rai kadipatta urad dal and hing
Maza agaya.
Pineapple Sheera:
I used to eat pineapple sheera made by my nani. Whenever I miss it I go to Anand Bhavan. Too tasty with pineapple pieces n elaichi and when it comes in ur mouth along with the ghee dipped sheera
Set Dosai:
This item you get to see mostly in south india. As per my experience many few hotels serve it n Anand Bhavan is one from them. Something different to try.
Buns:
Ah here comes the hero of my film ... BUNS. Authentic South Indian item which is my favourite. You won’t get it everywhere n anyone who makes it must be a specialist. Superb to taste. You have to taste it yourself to experience its goodness. Try dipping the buns in coffee instead of the regular coconut chatni... Similar to the irani bun and chai combo😉
Goli Bhaji
This is a very different type of bhaji which is soft. Tastes wonder with the chutney. A different experience.
Appam
It’s a white color fluffy Dosa. Best eaten with stew. Any day if you don’t want to eat the regular dosas you can try this one.
Sambhar
Sambhar is good to taste. Would give at least 9/10 coz I give 10/10 only to my mum. Sorry 😊
Chutney
Pure taste of coconut with desi gaanva Wala style chutney
Malga Pudi
If you want to try something other than chutney or sambhar along with Dosa or chutney then try this. It’s dipped in desi ghee n different taste n texture to you palette.
Kapi (it’s Coffee ☕️ but that’s how we spell it in my native place)
This best coffee of King Circle is served in steel glass and vaati. If not understood please check the pic I have put along with this review
Taak (Chaas)
Buttermilk is different taste wise coz nobody uses ginger green chilly and coriander mix n blended in buttermilk like them.... Natural digestive
Farsaan & Sweets
Potato Wafers
Best potato wafer I have ever tasted from this area. Specially the red chilly flavoured ones. You start eating it and I bet you won’t stop till u r full
Maalpua:
It’s totally veg, crispy, tasty n definitely the best
Kela Halwa Bar:
I won’t say anything. Eat it and you wd know why I am at loss of words
Badam Halwa Bar:
Too good...very gooey due to the amount of desi ghee.
Many more items are there. Would update regarding that too in future. Till then Have a happy food safari....😊
Eaten once...But the experience was good.The food was very homely. Good taste and lovely ambience. Their complete meal actually filled our hungry tummy. Loved their vegetable stew.
One of the oldest and the legendary restaurant serves awesome aouth indian delicacy..i had modaks and puranpoli frm here which were too good....their thali is also good....with variety of sabjis...and kheer ... Besibelle rice is good tooo....
It's awesome place for south Indian. Try special ulundu. It's mind boggling its my all time favorite. Filter coffee Is must one to end with.
My Go to place in Matunga(one out of many) as it serves home style,wholesome and value for money kind of stuff... kuch bhi like literally kuch bhi try karlo and you won’t regret!! Even the simplest South Indian Thali tastes so good with clean flavours and no strong masalas... humble and welcoming staff who suggest you to try out there most special dishes which you should not miss in any case.
Don’t forget to purchase some munchies, laddoos, papadams and masalas to take back home!!

Amongst the seemingly countless eateries in Matunga East specializing in delicacies from the south, Anand Bhavan is one of the classics, and that's where we popped in for dinner tonight. After a bit of a wait we got a table, and a quirk of this place is the tables are shared, and that's what happened with us, albeit briefly, as a gentleman took the lone empty seat for a quick bite. The funny part here is after snacking he drained his glass of water, and then picked up mine and drained it too!! Inspite of me already having taken a few sips!! Now about the food, I started off with my all time favourite, Medu Vada which is served here with Rasam and White Coconut Chutney. The vada was fantastic, hot and crispy, the rasam was decent, could've been spicier while the chutney was a little below par. Up next were Pasarettu and Tuppa Pola. The pasarettu was with onion stuffing, and touch too stiff, would've preferred it to be softer. The pola looked similar to an uttapam, though was almost sweet, being cooked in ghee as the name suggests. This was followed by Set Dosa, the name originating from it's format of 3 set pieces per serving, though here only 2 pieces are served. Soft and spongy, served with amazing coconut chutney, I really enjoyed this one. I then ordered their Veg Cutlet, since some of the more fancier items such as Bun Puri, Biscuit Roti weren't available. The cutlet didn't disappoint, and the accompanying Khatta Chutney was top notch. For desserts we opted for Phirni and then for Rabdi, the former is the best I've ever had, and the rabdi was equally impressive, super thick, appropriately sweet, totally unexpected from an udipi. To sum up then, you would struggle to find a better VFM place, us 3 ate to our fill, and for what we paid, a more upscale restaurant might offer you no more than a couple of starters. While one can't expect a posh layout, richer ambience and so on, the taste and quantity will compare to, and probably even better, any high end restaurant. The service being lightning fast as well, your meal will rarely go north of 45-60 min. A must visit for many items which aren't available at most other udipis.
Taste 4.5 / 5
Ambience 3.9 / 5
Service 4 / 5
Hygiene 4.7 / 5
Cost 4.1 / 5
Good south indian cuisines.
One must try pesarattu, tippy dosa , ulundu dosa.
During the Ganesh fest.... we visited this place and if you are in Matunga you need to visit this restaurant for their tasty and healthy South Indian food.
This veteran place is famous for their bise bile bhaat 😐😐
We missed it but we had some other lipsmacking food..
We ordered:
Filter coffee
Sp.masala dosa
Set dosa
Neer dosa 😍😍
Rasam vada 😋
Pineapple sheera😍
Veteran place! My dad took me to this place saying this is where he used to eat at when he was young. Trust me this place still has the old Mumbai charm to it.
Food: Authentic and homely food with humble prices.
Staff: They're so kind and polite. Vintage places like these has the best staff compared to all the 5star flashy restaurants.
Didn't get a chance to click pictures but do try the Neer dosa.
Their filter coffee is amazing so I definitely will not rate them below 4. :P The dosas are also decent though. For the price, they are worth having. Rava dosas are much better here than other dosas.
We ordered:
1) Rava Masala Dosa- 4.5/5
2) Mysore Masala Dosa- 3/5
3) Filter Coffee- 4.5/5
If you love south Indian food, this place should be in your bucket list. It's that great. Small place with a homely decor giving you cozy vibes. There are different dishes to opt from. Overall a happy experience. Enjoy your idli rassma and filter coffee will be a treat.
A legendary place in Matunga for some legendary south indian food.
Try their
Vada Rasam
Manglorean Buns(Come early morning around 8 for steaming hot buns)
Sheera
Bise Bille Bhaat
Other items are good too.
" ANAND BHAVAN " is very Amazing and never disappointing from the services offered and making us creating each and every enjoyable and memorable moments and creating peace inside our body with all varieties served to us.
DO COME OUT WITH EXCITING OFFERS and shall keep on visiting frequently...
All tym favorite for all types of dosa and uttpam
specially i always have rasam vada, pinapple shira and filter koffee.
Bisi beli bhat is good here..
Reasonable and service is very quick.
You get all types of waffers here. Their rasam masala and sambar masala is also good
Parking is a issue. Sunday morning lot of crowd even at 7.30am. Waiting time is expected for 10-15 min. Lot of loud noise but who cares when the taste buds are enjoying their own music.
Food is good to taste. Had vada sambhar, plain rava dosa(very crispy) and neer dosa.
very good south indian food!
idlis, neel dosa and sheera are excellent.
polite staff and very fast moving outlet.
have been there for decades and still giving tough competition in the area.
definitely a must try.
Must must must try for some great authentic south indian food. Humble yet hygienic seating, they haven't worked much on ambience building etc but rather focused on the food which is an absolute delight!
Special masala dosa, bisbele bhaat, rasam wada, kanchipuram idli, filter coffee and pineapple sheera are a definite must try here!
Authentic food they serve here, we have ordered almost everything because we were in a large group. The taste was very nice but they will not join the table so you have to sit separately if you are coming in a large group also. The price for the food was also good not expensive. Sometimes you may face queue over there due to the large crowd.
This is THE PLACE to visit for authentic South Indian food in Matunga, probably the best of the area among Anand Bhuwan, Mysore Cafe, Cafe Madras, Arya Bhavan and Ramashray.
There are a lot of speciality items like Special Ulundu Dosa, Mysore Set Dosa, Mysore Bun, Rava Adai, etc.
Donne Idli & Benne Dosa deserve a special mention.
Each of the item is a delight to eat.Truly a South Indian food lovers delight.
Special mention to serving staff 'Ravi' who is very friendly and always gives good recommendations.
There are two dining areas, and on weekends both are full.
Visit early in morning to enjoy with less crowd.
Iconic and Legendary place to have South Indian dishes. The Special Ulundu Dosa here extremely Great and served with authentic Podi and White Makhan.
One of the finest South Indian restaurants in Mumbai. Their Filter Coffee and Dosa are a heaven-worthy combination. Their Set Dosa is highly recommended. The staff are quick in service and humble in nature .
It's a treat for people who love South Indian cuisine! The dishes served are super Relishing ........The filter coffee shouldn't be missed!! It's a Neat and clean restaurant......and service is really quick!
We visited for a South Indian Breakfast. We tried Medu Vada Samber, Masala Dosa, Rava Masala Dosa, Gulab jamun & Pineapple Sheera. All items are good except Gulab Jamun which we expected was not fresh on the basis of taste & informed that to the manager... Crowded place in the morning... Service was a little bit slow ... No cards, no digital payment... Only cash is accepted here... Enjoy 😋
It's mostly very crowded and I don't like too much noise when I eat so atmosphere has gotten only 3 star. It's a pocket friendly and tasty option. Can definitely grab a quick bite or two. Has washbasin but no washroom!!! Staff is Veryyy helpful and extremely quick with service as they are almost always busy and full..
Unique south Indian dishes which you will not get in Mumbai like manglore buns, biscuit roti, chana poha, and much more
We had onion uttapa and masala dosa
They have lot options for snacks.
Tea coffee drinks available
Dosa verity available
Bun puri which is sweet.
Coffee is nice must try
Cannot recommend this place highly enough. Having been to South India only a few days prior, this compared very favorably to what I'd been served there. The Mangalore buns, the jackfruit idli, the sheera – all excellent. Perhaps best: the accompaniments, a very pure and tasty coconut chutney, a satisfying sambar, and one hell of a funky pickle.
visited this place many times since the 1960s.
i lived near by so i've been here many times. there are many 'udupi' restaurants in this locality. for me at least anand bhavan is the best - the closest to home-cooked food you can get in the Kings Circle area. rates are reasonable. attached pics of vada-sambar and rava-masala.
Old rustic look & feel brings back the nostalgia..
The food is good as it should be. Few dishes on the menu are not available, which was bit disappointing.
Tip: avoid first floor seating as it's too noisy due to the exhaust fan.
Simple cosy vintage restaurant, hasn't changed at all for all these years. I used to eat here during my student life. Food is fresh and nice. Real value for money. Service is prompt. Only suggestion for improvement is please accept digital payment and provide some tissues.
The food is excellent. In fact I feel that that same dishes are better than Madras Cafe and Banana Leaf that people throng. On Sundays, must try the sharkara pongal (sweet rice and jaggery that is typically served in temples as prasad). The owner looks stern but is very cordial and friendly. Makes recommendations of what you could try.
Please take cash as they don't accept card or UPI. Per head it will come to around 200 depending upon what you eat.
Had a quick snack in south Indian restaurant…
Food are delicious… should try the sambar vada as well..
Waitresses are quite good and weird why they are barefoot …
It’s crowded area for evening snack..
Price are reasonable and its around king circle with other restaurants as well..
Best hotel for quick bite. Pure veg restaurant. Located at prime spot road touch location. Famous for south indian cuisine. Taste is awesome must visit. Rates are normal pocket friendly restaurant. I was deeply disappointed because they accept only cash payment, now a days no one caary cash in digital world.
Have limited parking for bike.
It is the best place in Bombay today to have Missal Pav. Their flavors are divine. They have a very good menu. The place is neat and hygienic. Service is fast and the food is piping hot. Prices are cheap and reasonable. Be sure to visit if you are in the neighborhood.

How to travel---
Anand Bhavan popularly knows as ab's in Mahim west area. This restaurant is located in Mahim west area of mumbai city. To reach here you have to get down at Matunga road station and move towards west side through the bridge near to the signal come walking straight till the LJ road arrives just crossing the signal you will find the restaurant and bar. There is different section for bar and restaurant. The ambiance and crowd is decent, it good place to enjoy lunch or dinner with friends and family 😊. The quality and the hygiene is properly maintained.
What to eat----
The post popular dishes that you can order is gussi curry with fish/chicken/mutton, Malabar paratha, appum and chicken ghee roast. Mine favourite is chicken ghee roast ypu may also get it with fish as well. Kids will love appum and malabar paratha. Malabar paratha is soft and crunchy and goes well with all the curries. Climax can be done with the caramel custard the best sweet I always eat after dinner.
Note:
Please do not litter or waste food. Keep environment clean and please follow swachata abhiyan , stay happy and make people happy😊😊😊
