Contrary to popular belief, this is actually a hotel running out of the Family Court premises in B.K.C Bandra and the primary purpose is facilitation of a functional, inexpensive space primarily for litigants visiting the Court premises and its staff and advocates. However people from the vicinity especially govt offices also visit throughout the day and hence the place experiences very high footfall through the day. Service levels can vary with the crowd but are usually good. Popular eats are the Idli, Medu Wada, Misal/Usal Pav, Sabudana Wada, Mysore Masala Dosa, Tomato Onion Uttapa, Tomato Omelette and the Lunch Thali available during lunch hour.

I write this review after ordering at least 9 times from this canteen. However my review is very limited as all 9 times I have ordered Pav Bhaaji with 2 extra Pav. The taste and hygiene has been consistent and quality of food is really nice. Also the pricing is economical. However if you are working in BKC then you would need to arrange for your own transport to get your order collected. Also dining at the canteen is not a good option as the ambience of the canteen is very sad and depressing!
