Whenever I visit Siddhivinayak Temple, i ensure that i have eaten from this restaurant i.e. breakfast or lunch.

This time it was combination of many types of food i.e. south indian, Maharashtrian and Punjabi.

This is very small resturant but they offer lots of different varieties of food. We had:

Masala Uttapam - 4/5 where soft with lots of patato masala, sambar and coconut chutney

Khotambari vadi - 5/5 - this is Maharashtrian dish which consist of small square pieces mix of methi and other flours and half cook/bolied. It was very nicely cooked and must try.

Paneer tikka masala - 3/5- somehow taste was ok and had chapati with it.

Caramel custard - 3/5 nice pudding but caramel sauce was missing.

Overall it was great experience.

Some of the dishes in the hotel modakam are made in a very good manner and taste. The hotel is very crowded even twelve months a year because of the restaurant that is here to cook It has a slightly different taste to the hand. The hotel owner should provide the customer with the convenience of a well-planned cold environment by increasing the hotel space.

Small outlet located right next to the main entrance of Siddhivinayak Temple, serving some great authentic Maharashtrian food. Have been visiting from a long time now. The staff is quite helpful in recommending dishes. Lookout for some great modak combo's during Ganesh Chaturthi.

Regularly ordered dish:

Misal Pav, Vada Sambar, Batata Vada Sambar

Modakam is a small restaurant next to Siddhivinayak Temple and is famous for its fast food and sweets. I visited them recently to buy few modaks and totally loved the varieties they had on offer. My favourite from their ganesh chaturthi-special sweet menu are lychee and pistachio. From their food menu, I tried wada pav and dosa and both were great. Food is not just economical but also of good quality.

Its the festive season,and what accompanies this enthralling experience is the authentic and traditional food.To deal with your food related dilemma,Modakam is a great solution.They provide 100% traditional cuisines at affordable rates.The ukdiche modak which they offer,which is a maharastrian sweet dish offering to lord ganesha,is a steamed coalescence of rice floor,jaggery and coconut.It is extremely rich in terms of taste and texture,and really fulfilling.Their other variants of modaks are equally delicious.The pedhas which they have are also unique,and all of their offerings are packed with abundant dryfruits.Truly a divine eating experience !

I'm going through with reviews of all and pictures of foods and I saw modak... So I thought I have to go for my boyfriend he is a modak lover and it was his birthday. And all the waiters are good to talk.
• So we first tried out MENDU VADA. The taste of sambhar is yumm man.. I think if sambhar and chutney is good than the mendu vada goes with best. 10/10
• Then we ordered DAHI VADA. I'm not a Dahi vada fan but it was good until I saw rai (mustard) in dahi vada and I hate to eat mustard otherwise it's all good. 8/10
• And finally we had a MODAKAM SPECIAL THALI there was 2 bhaji, 3 chapatis, roasted papad, dal, jeera rice, pickle, onion & lemon, dahi vada, fruit salad, modak. 10/10

----- The hotel is small so sometime we have to adjust with another persons for seat.(I didn't like it so much because I want to have food with peace and with my own people and NOT some anyone who just has eyes on our food) that's the reason of my not giving rating 5/5.

-----And the food quantity is good and it all costs for ₹360.

Modakam has to be one of the well known eatery due to its location as it is located near to Siddhivinayak temple. As Ganesh Chathurti is approaching we thought of trying out their exclusive Ganesh chathurti hamper where in was
.
An idol of lord Ganesha and some incense sticks
.
There was the Sabudana wada🤤, Paneer fried rice, Vada and Kharwas and Ukdiche modak to end on a sweet note. I loved the way they presented everything
.
Do try out their Ganesh chathurti hamper on this auspicious occasion of Ganesh Chathurti

Also tried out their some varieties of modaks
The Chocolate Modak
The rose petal Modak
Pista modak

if you are around Lower Parel then obviously some divine intervention at Siddhivinayak is something you need but all the computing and the Hustle bustle of daily life makes you hungry and you are always looking to eat out and with that you have to make sure food is pocket friendly therefore I went 2 to this quick fast and efficient service place near Siddhivinayak and had a good meal of paneer sabzi with rotis and to my surprise this was the best I have eaten since a very long time therefore I recommend this place very very strictly

So as usual on a Tuesday I always go regularly since my my childhood to one of the greatest temples in Mumbai and that is how I landed up up at Siddhivinayak and a small restaurant called modakkam next to it. this was obviously not a planned visit but to my surprise with yummy modakam desserts and amazing food South Indian and Indian quick service hot to the table this place surprised me and we as a group of four ate a lot with paying hardly what we expected to pay. Channa batura where's my favourite among all the South Indian and Indian dishes on the table therefore I recommend this place highly every time you visit the God you should visit the god of food

Went to meet the divine power that would run my kitchen and fill my belly all year, and to a pleasant surprise my prayers was answered so quickly, as everyone knows getting darshan at siddivinyak itself is a toll on the body and a task, but god is there and right at the exit exists a small but yummy food place, called Moddakam, Had a refreshing lassi, and modakkam special thaali there and trust me they zapped me with such lovely food at such reasonable cost, its truly said that smaller the place the better the food (sorry 5 stars being a little biased here ;)) fantastic food a must try every time you visit the mandir or even the area you and your pocket cannot be more satisfied than this.

Modakam is a simple and decent restaurant situiated right beside Siddhivinayak. It serves a great variety in vegetarian foodstuffs and is known for it's delicious modaks.
As it is right outside the temple, it serves the best place to have lunch or dinner post darshan.

What we ordered:

🔸Paneer Pakoda ❤️💯
A perfect dish for this rainy weather. It was served hot with sauce and mint chutney. The quantity was so great. Paneer was soft and the pakodas were great.

🔹Paneer Chilli Dry 🍢❤️
Soft cubes of paneer nicely tossed in the sauces. This dish was more like pepper paneer and was spicy and will go well with any fried rice. Loved it!

🔸Mushroom Fried Rice 🍄❤️💯
This was definitely my favorite. The rice was so well prepared and the mushroom had a nice smoky flavor to it. Just loved the taste and the portion. We had it with paneer chilli.

🔹Paav bhaji
This was a decent paav bhaji. For anyone who wants to have a quick meal this is a good option. Nothing great about it but it was good.

🔸Mango milkshake🍹
This was just delicious. It was refreshing and pulpy. Only that it had chunks of ice in between. But it was great!

🔹Modak Icecream 🍦❤️💯💯
This is a must must have here. The modaks are definitely great but this was something new and just delicious. It had the Modak filling in between and creamy ice cream on top. It was so creamy and just delicious. Definitely worth a try!

🔸Caramel Custard🍮❤️
We were pretty full at the end of our meal but this custard was so light and tasty. Perfect caramel flavor, not too sweet and a very light dessert to end your meal.

The service was very speedy. It was almost packed in evening. And orders were pouring in as it was a Sankashti. But the service was still on point. The ambience is decent.
This restaurant is pretty affordable for anyone and everyone and serves good quality and quantity dishes.

They are especially famous for their modak, and trust me i loved thier modak, they are just amazing in it.
Thier modak outer portion is lil bit sticky and chewy, which makes their modak unique.
Items we tried:-
Menduwada
Mobile dosa
Chole bature
Panner pav bhaji
Modak
Modak icecream
Kesar falooda.
Everything we tried is outstandingly amazing 🥰

So after standing in queues for darshan at Siddhivinayak Temple, I had to chomp on some carbs and luckily I found this place right beside the temple.

Modakkam is a small, usually crowded place where you go for a quick snack or for a full fledged meal. Ambience is just like any other family restaurant, basic. Service is good.

And we ate:
Sabudana Vada, Mix Veg Noodles and Cheese Pav Bhaji. Food had good taste, also was light on pocket. What else one needs. So food was 5/5.

Overall 5/5.

This restaurant is just outside of gates on siddhivinayak Mandir in prabhadevi. They serve some lips smacking fast foods. Dosa here is must try. Pav bhaji was little sweet but may be ideal for people who dont like spicy food. Its mango season so they also serve chill mango shakes. You should try kharwas here in dessert.

Happy World Cup season to all my lovely foodies !!!!
Now if we want team INDIA to win then “Ganesh Bhagwan ka pooja toh banta hi hai boss “ 😂😂😂

Yes my lovely foodies if you happen to visit Siddhivinayak Temple you must visit Modakam. It’s a perfect place to fulfill your stomach after waiting in long queues for Ganesh darshan. Modakam is a small place but literally a budget friendly place that offers you lovely food items.

Our orders here were medu wada with sambar, mobile dosa ( 😂😂 not the dosa which has a mobile in it 😜), choley bhatura, Paneer pav bhaji, Masala buttermilk (Yummy like anything) kesar falooda with ice cream and how can we forget to order MODAK when we were at a place which is named after it. So yes, we ordered Modak which is commonly known as UKDICHE MODAK & Modak Icecream 🍦

I am being super honest to everyone who is reading this review. Trust me guyz everything tasted simply delicious and marvelous. I have no words to explain how yummy the sambar was. Masala buttermilk was soothing for me when I had it. I liked the mobile dosa a lot because it had three different types of dosas with three different types of masala inside those cute little dosa cones. It was served in a fantastic manner to us. The modaks that we ate were simply fab and reminded me of Ganesh festival celebration at my hometown. The most fascinating thing I ate here was MODAK ICE CREAM. Modak Ice cream is the special ice cream that they offer to their guests. It tasted just like modak but it actually was an ice cream. Yummy 😋!Guyz please don’t mind Incase you find this place little small and uncomfortable but this place is worth visiting. That is all I can say. I am posting pictures of all our food items along with this review and I hope everyone will definitely try this place.

Thank you Modakam for Hosting us !!!!

Ganpati Bappa Morya!!! 😊😊

Modakam is one of those restaurants which you will never mind coming again and again. The service is decent. Staff was the most humble I have ever seen. It is located besides Siddhivinayak Mandir and is crowded everyday. A poky place but a must try for sure.

What I had :
Mushroom Manchow Soup : A great to start with. It was a bit of spicy but the mushroom were extraordinary.

Spring Masala Dosa (Highly Recommended) : This was without a doubt the best dosa I have ever eaten. It was very crisp and stuffing of noodles was phenomenal.

Club Sandwich : It was obviously not better than the Dosa but it was good enough to have. Wafers with an average sandwich and tomato omelette made it good.

Paneer Chilly : The capsicum was a bit too much served with this. But again, the paneer was very soft and well cooked.

Hakka Noodles : It is not a Chinese restaurant but to my surprise the Chinese cuisine did not disappoint me at all. A great dish for your main course.

Mango Milkshake (Recommended) : A great thing to always have after a heavy meal. The mango season is going on and this made my day.

Chocolate Milkshake (Highly Recommended) : The best I have had in Milkshakes. An extraordinary shake with a slight flavour of chocolate was just spectacular.

Modakam is located near Siddhivinayak Temple in Prabhadevi, a small and decent place for quick bites as well as long too.

One may find it crowded but has good quality of food as well as fast service indeed.
I tried various dishes such as,

1. Sabudana Vada : It consists of 2 in one plate, size is decent and good. Just the crisp gets missed out.

2. Modak - It is one of the things you should definitely try, worth the money. Taste and purity upto the mark totally.

3. Mix Veg Noodles : Contains of all the vegetables with good crisp in the noodles and a good bowl of quantity.

4. Cheese Pav Bhaji : The taste isn't too spicy, it's medium with cheese overloaded and a good quantity which also matters.

As per the price range and the location, the place is worth going.

Recently visited Modakam, right outside iconic Siddhivinayak temple in Prabhadevi. Small sweet vegetarian joint with multiple fast food cuisines and vast menu to suit everyone’s needs.

Everything is yellow about Modakam – furniture, staff clothing and modak carved on top of the restaurant.

Out of many items, a must try here are kothimbir wadi, paneer pakoda, pav bhaji, paneer tikka masala and mobile dosa. To go along with is Mango lassi and falooda. If you wish to opt for lighter options then fresh fruit juices are also refreshing.

Authentic modak (sweet delicacy) is a must in Modakam. They also offer some unique dessert options like guava and modak ice cream.

Over all good experience with friendly staff and quick service.

According to the Hindu mythology, modak is believed to be Ganesh's favourite food, and hence he is also known as Modakapriya, someone who likes modak. As per the rituals, 21 modaks are offered to the Lord Gajanan as bhog and eventually served as prasad to all the devotees. Ganesha is the Lord of Wisdom, Success and Good Luck.

This is how the restaurant derives its name – MODAKAM (Prasad from Lord Ganesha). You will also find a big modak carved at the top of the restaurant.

Modakam is situated right outside the iconic and famous Shree Siddhivinayak Ganapati Mandir. The temple has its foundation 2 centuries ago on 19th November, 1801. A small temple has now turned into a grand premise housing many deities. The Siddhivinayak Ganesha idol is quite unique and unusual as it was carved out of a single black stone and has Ganesha’s trunk to the right instead of left.

The temple is situated in the heart of city Mumbai. Centrally located and easily accessible via various public transport services.

Modakam is a 40 year old, pure vegetarian restaurant with multiple fast food options. It serves variety of maharashtrian, south Indian and Punjabi cuisines. They also specialize into fasting food items as well.

Starters :

KOTHAMBIR WADI, an authentic maharashtrian dish, had a beautiful colour of green and brown. Fried perfectly to make the outer layer crisp. Served along with coriander chutney and ketchup. A must-have!!!

CHEESE PAKODA, one of the most delicious snack dishes, were bought hot from the kitchen. Crispy layer outside and melting cheese on the inside was a perfect mix.

Main course:

Restaurant has a live PAV BHAJI counter right at its entrance. The aroma of pav bhaji fills the ambience and you can’t hold back in ordering one. The dish surpasses the expectations.

Many devotees come walking to the temple from different parts of Bombay and haven’t eaten anything till the darshan is over. Hearty meal of PANEER TIKKA MASALA AND ROTI is a big recommendation to anyone looking for a full family meal. After all the hard work, pamper your system with some protein.

Juices/Milkshakes:

King of fruits and yogurt, tongue’s delight is MANGO LASSI. Perfectly sweetened, not too thick nor too thin is a healthy smoothie along with food.

How about a feast for your eyes and taste buds? A must try is ROSE FALOODA. Modakam also adds chunks of jelly pieces. Kind of took me back to my childhood days.

Desserts:

Ever thought of a spicy ice cream? GUAVA ICE CREAM with sprinkle of chilli powder was a blast of taste’s in the mouth. It is a wonderful mix of sweet and spicy (very little). Almost felt like eating guava fruit with masala.

Modakam aaye aur Modak nahi khaya toh kya khaya? But how about modak with a twist – MODAK ICE CREAM. It is unique and different. Modakam’s speciality.

So overall it was a good experience with multiple flavours... Service is quick & rates are reasonable.. Definitely a good option for some quick snacking with family & friends.

Do come for darshan and a hearty meal.

Modakam is located in Prabhadevi nearby Siddhivinayak Temple. Modakam is a veg restaurant.We tried Paneer pakoda,Kothimbir vadi as starter. Then try Paneer tikka marsala which taste is so good, paneer is very soft easily eadable with buter roties. We also tried Aamras, mango milkshake and Guava ice cream, these are so yummy and delicious. Staff behaviour is good. I would recommended you visit Modakam restaurant and enjoy the tasty food.

Recently visited Modakam. It's situated outside of Siddhivinayak Temple. It is a simple looking restaurant, which serves Maharashtrian, Punjabi and south Indian cuisine. During my visit to this place I've tried their Paneer Pakoda, Kothimbir vadi as appetizers. For main course we tried their Paneer tikka masala, which has good taste. Paneer was soft and tender, along with that we had butter rotis. Along with food tried Mango Milkshake, aamras and Modak Ice cream. Overall it was good experience. Being near Siddhi Vinayak temple has it's toll on prices of this restaurant. Although food has good taste yet prices are slightly higher.
Staff behavior was friendly & attentive.
All over experience of Modakam was good.

“Modakam” the name itself specifies that when you visit modakam, the must try item on there menu is Ukdiche Modak (steamed Modak). Absolutely delicious served hot with a dash of ghee!!
Btw this is a small restaurant situated in Prabhadevi just outside siddhi Vinayak temple which serves variety of maharashtrian, South Indian and punjabi cuisines.
This place is mostly visited by almost everyone who comes to seek Bappa’s blessings and the best part is its service is super fast and prices are reasonable as well.
We tried kothimbir wadi which was delicious and crisp, mobile dosa which was a combination on 3 varieties of mini dosas with variable stuffing which was pretty good and recommended. Then we hopped on to aamras which is seasonal and was fresh and soothing, we even tried kesar falooda which was very good as it was less sweet and we prefer it that way.
Staff is very friendly and definitely parking is a problem as it is situated on main road but overall we had a good experience and yes they do serve fasting items as well!!

Situated just outside Siddhivinayak Temple, Modakam is small yet amazing veg restaurant serving Maharashtrian, Punjabi and South Indian Cuisine.
  This is our must visit place, whenever we come to seek Bappa's blessings,  

Along with regular menu, Modakam has lots of options for fasting too. Here is what I tried during my recent visit:

Snacks:
Kothimbir Vadi: Crispy & Tasty
Sabudana Wada: Authentically prepared & served with sweet curd

Juices:
Maramari: Lovely fusion of Mosambi & Pineapple juice
Watermelon: Cool & Refreshing 

For mains we tried their Mushroom Masala with Butter Naan.. Naan was bit  thick for my liking but it was loaded with butter & went well with Sabji.. 

& for desserts we had Ukadiche Modak.. Modakam aake Modak nahi khaye to kya matlab hai na?? This is absolutely must try dish here.. Indulge in once & you will be in love forever...

So overall it was a good experience... Services is quick & rates are reasonable.. Definately a good option for some quick snacking with family & friends if you are in around Prabhadevi

Modakam is small and sweet restaurant which serves maharashtrian as well as south indian food.also some fastfood.
Modakam is located near to famous siddhivinayak temple.so you can take blessings of lord ganesha too.
Hygenic of this place is okaish maintained.
Staff is very active and service and food was amazingly good.
We visited modakam few days ago and here is the food items which we ordered.

•cheese pavbhaji : 4/5 : in cheese pavbhaji we found little less cheese and taste was good.they could improve it by replacing regular spices with better spices.also butter was lessbut overall taste was good.

•masala uttapam : 5/5 : for this masala uttapam i would like to give thumbs up.the taste was finger licking good.chutney and sambhar was too good.but the final look of uttapam was little messy.they could have make it in more better manner.

•mosambi juice : 3.5/5 : i am great fond of mosambi juice.i like it little chilled without ice or sugar little amount of sugar is ok.taste of mosambi juice was good but sugar was high and at the end of juice sugar was too much.

•mango juice : 5/5: mango juice was nicely made.you could give try.i think they have added small amount of milk in that to make it little thin but overall juice was nice.

•mushroom masala with kulcha and naan : 5/5: you must try this dish.they quantity and quality of gravy was perfectly high.and taste was finger licking.also the kulcha and roti was freshly made and piping hot with great taste.

•fruit salad with jelly: 3.5/5 : in fruit salad they had mixed finely chopped apple,chikoo,pineapple,dry jelly , cherry, some syrup.80% they have added apple and the fruit salad was not as expected, be it the dry jellies but the fruit salad was just a name though as majority of the flavour was conquered by the essence of apple only, thereby naming apple salad 😅

We tried a variety of Maharashtrian delicacies like Ukadiche Modak, Pav Bhaji, Misal pav,l and Kothambir wadi

All of them were perfect in taste. I would highly recommend it to all my followers.

The name modakam itself suggests the availablllty
Of modaks, the favourite food of Lord Ganesh. The restaurant just outside Prabhadevi, Siddhivinayak temple makes more sense.

But that is not all. The small joint in yellow, even the staff in yellow clothes, offers various Maharashtrian delicacies like Kothambir wadi, Shira-Upma, sabudana wada etc. Also various types of South- Indian dosas, idlis , Pav-bhaji are available.

And tio qhench your thirst u can have juices, Falooda, cold coffee.

Since it was hot summer, I just wished, it had AC section also.

This place has Divine vibes which one can feel while having the meal. I really liked the staff working over here, they are typical Indian and really polite. I would recommend you this restaurant as it is pocket friendly also.

Enjoyed their tasty dishes like Cheese Pav Bhaji which was too good, and their Special Thali was good includes Rice, Roti, 2 Veg, Dal and Sweet etc with Papad and Pickle. Also tried their Mango Milkshake, the taste was mind-blowing. Their Cheese Roll was good served with Chutney and Sauce. Good place with good rates situated at shidivinayak temple, Prabhadevi

Modakum is a restaurant which serves Maharashtrian, Punjabi and South Indian cuisine.
This place is located adjacent to Siddhivinayak Temple at Dadar.
Masala dosa and Medu wada was served in starters which was good.
Paneer Kolhapuri was delicious with butter roti's.
In shakes we had mango milkshake🍹.
In sweets, Caramel Custard was yum.
It was my bad luck as I wanted to order Modak as it is the main desert which is very much famous there, which wasn't available and I also wanted falooda as it was also not available at that time.

Recently visited Modakam, which located near Siddhivinayak Temple, Prabhadevi. Modakam serves amazing Indian food, which includes Maharashtrian, Punjabi and South Indian Cuisine.
Restaurant is comparably small yet spacious with comfortable seating. Modakam has good amazing food options for one who's on Fast. During my visit to Modakam, I've tried their Kothimbir Wadi, which is traditional Maharashtrian cuisine, made of deep fried Coriander, was excellent in taste and was crunchy. I've tried their Ukdiche Modak, which is my personal favourite, the I had Aamras, a traditional Maharashtrian juice made of Mangoes, both were good in taste but I found it expensive. I've tried their Maramari Juice, it's a mixture of Mosambi and Pineapple juices. It was worth trying.
Overall it was a good experience. Food was good. Services were good. Modakam can be a good option for Vegetarian Foodies.

This is a nice budget friendly in prabhadevi. This is restaurant is just outside of sidhi vinayak temple. They have huge range of snacks item on their menu along with indian curries. By visiting this place , you can have all of mumbai fast food. From dosa to poha and sheera. Most patreon are here who visit temple.

Mysore masala dosa:
Mysore dosa here is mind blowing. They dont use south indian masala stuffing, it taste more malwani but this makes it unique and taste better.

Cheese pav bhaji:
As i told you can have all mumbai fast food in here. Pav bhaji here is full of cheese and butter. It savoury and looks so palatable.

Paneer makhanwala: it was looking so tempting. It had myraid paneer pieces. The curry was smooth and has taste of different spices. Since it is makhanwala it felt little on sweet side.

Kucha/butter roti:
Bread were soft and could be broken with no efforts. They were dipped in butter, so health conscious may have to watch out for it.

Kharwas:
Anyone who visits here so try their kharwas. It was star of meal. Kharwas is a Maharashtran dessert made with fresh milk. The kharwas they served us was very fresh and good smell. It was so soft that it jiggling like jelly when we were eating. It had pistachio and saffron on top of it.

Starting with the ambience it’s quite alright. In the evening time there would be no difficulty in finding seats. In snacks, Kothimbir Vadi was really good. They give with ketchup and chutney and same with Cheese Pakoda. It was very rich in quality but a little oily. The way they present their dishes is exceptional. Modakam Special Biryani in Main Course was the best out of all the dishes. It covers in 3 types of Biryani: Veg Biryani, Hyderabadi Biryani and Kashmiri Biryani. Kaju Dingri was sweet in taste filled with lots of Kajus on the top. Veg Maharaja along with Kulcha was also very well presented and really good in taste as well. Solkadhi was alright. Their speciality in desserts is Ukdiche Modak in which they give one big modak filled with halwa stuffing. Kharvas was like pudding topped with dry fruits, very good in taste is recommended. Modakam Special Biryani is highly recommended as it includes tomatoes on the outer side of the plate in circle filled with pineapple pieces. The service is pretty good. The food gets ready in no time. It is very much recommended for people who are pure vegetarian.

This restaurant is located near the very Famous Temple Siddhivinayak.. It's a small Pocket Friendly restaurant which offers variety of fresh and delicious food, very quick service and lots and lots of options in Modak as the name suggests Modakam!!! Although the ambience is a bit okay the food and service is great! The staff was quiet friendly.. Jairam served us really well.. to begin with we had the beverages.. juices are never a bad idea... We had the Mousambi Juice very yummy and The Maramari Juice which was a combination of pineapple and Mousambi Juice.. then we had some mouthwatering starters called the Cheese Pakoda and Paneer Chilly.. paneer chilly was too good and it's recommended.. Moving on to the main course we had the Paneer Tikka Masala and Butter Garlic Naan! The naan was fresh and soft.. paneer was good! Also had the Kolhapuri Biryani which was great.. Meal is incomplete without desserts.. we had the Falooda... Well who doesn't love Falooda ?? Had the Kesar Falooda and Rose Falooda came along with little vanilla ice cream.. liked the rose Falooda more.. overall visit Siddhivinayak Temple cause it's really beautiful and have a pocket friendly meal at this restaurant..

Recently visited this 40-year old Pure Veg restaurant named as Modakam for a food tasting session along with my friend
This place is located in Prabhadevi just near the Siddhivinayak Temple.

For the snacks, we ordered some Kothimbir Vadi and Cheese Pakoda.

Then we ordered the Solkadhi drink, it is made using coconut milk and kokum.

For the main course, we ordered Kaju Dingri sabzi and Veg Maharaja, along with Kulcha and Modakam Special Biryani.
The Modakam Special Biryani was a mixture of Veg Biryani, Hyderabadi Biryani and Kashmiri Biryani.

Last but not the least, we tried their speciality desserts.
We were served Kharvas, which is a milk pudding sprinkled with dry fruits.

Then, as the restaurant name is Modakam, we had to try their Ukdiche Modak. This modak is made using rice flour and filled with halwa stuffing inside.
When in Prabhadevi, I would recommend visiting this place for their snacks food options.

Last night, I visited modakam after our darshan at siddhivinayak. The ambience was really great, the chairs were in modak shape. The waiters were really kind and humble.
Taste
We ordered watermelon and mango milkshake, the watermelon juice was fresh, no colour or powdered. 4/5
Then we had cheese grilled sandwiches and cheese pakoda, but the taste was fine , the cheese pakoda had no stuffing only cheese was fried with batter.3/5
We ordered jeera rice and panner makhanwala, usually I know the gravy is sweet but here it was extra sweet, the jeera rice was cooked properly. 3/5
For dessert we order fruit salad with ice-cream, it was extra sweet too with all that truty fruity on top with cherry and jelly's. 3/5
Overall I love the ambience more than the dishes, the modaks are special here. A must try after siddhivinayak.

It's situated at the entrance of the temple gate and is a small but nice place serving South Indian, Punjabi, Chinese and the famous Maharastrian Dishes along with a variety of juice and falooda.
We started with fresh fruit juices along with Cheese Pakodas which were very crisp and Paneer Chilly.
Than we had Paneer Tikka Masala along with Tandoori Garlic Naan and Kolhapuri Biryani which had a unique taste.
We ended with their special Rose and Kesar falooda which were amazing.
