One stop destination to binge on good malwani food, seafood, food is simply delicious, craving enough, fish was fresh, nicely cooked and coated with flavours
Must try. All the dishes are awesome. We tried prawns thali, bombil thali mutton sukka and vajari. And cherry on the cake was the best solkadi i ever had.
One of the best restaurants serving authentic malvani cuisine in the city.. We tried their pomfret fry, prawns fry, bombil (bombay duck) fry thalis.. good food quality, worth the money
Its a small place but the taste is awesome. Assal malvani chaska 😘 The prices are also pocket friendly.
Crab Thali 5/5
Bombil fry 3/5
A Must Try 🥰
Visited this place and ate there a couple of weeks ago. Had been searching for a good seafood place. Malvan Katta knows how to handle seafood and good value for money as well. The red chutney is out of this world. Definitely recommend.
The best experience I've ever had in Malvan Katta...
Love the atmosphere
Visit here with office colleagues my boss given party and seriously it was an fantastic experience for me and entire team.
We enjoyed a lot with there food quality and staff services.
Very well prepared dishes. Malvan Katta has a knack for handling seafood. The dishes were perfectly spiced and no raw notes whatsoever. The red chutney was a pleasant surprise. Surmai thali, crab thali, prawns biryani, mutton biryani were all delicious to the palate and comfortable on the tummy. Good value for money as well. Highly recommended for seafood lovers.
This place is just next to my office in vikhroli. Sometimes i visit here during my lunch hours. The food is amazing here. My most favourite from here id Prawns biryani. It is my absolute favourite. Along with the second best from this place is bombil fry. It is yummylicious. Its a must try place.

Malvan katta :- i ordered from here some food for my home . Chicken lever dry , chicken sukka , chicken kolhapuri , chicken rassa and chicken lollipop . Nice taste and well cooked chicken pieces . Must try .
One of the best place to eat. Because it taste awesome as well as they doesn't use product like artificial colour. Must visit this place if you wish to eat tempting malvani food 🍴
Loved the taste...especially the fish curry and the Mori Masala. Very authentic and large portion sizes. Only issue is with delivery...as Zomato rarely has delivery boys around that area!
Situated on LBS. Almost at 1.5 km from Vikhroli station. It's a very small place nothing fancy about the ambience. But if u are craving for Malvani food this is the place you go.
Our order:
Chicken lollipop: 3.5/5 Tasted normal nothing great.
Surmai Fry: 4/5 Well fried. Tasted well. Most importantly wasnt rubber like.
Kombdi Vade: 4/5
malvan katta special chicken: 4/5
Chicken was well cooked. Gravy was tasty.

Quality: 4/5
Quantity: 4/5
Value for money 5/5
Would I like to visit again? Definitely Yes!
It’s old skool, rustic and definitely not a eye candy. The ambience is simple, a typical malvani place with a traditional hand-wash and menu graffiti on the walls 😹. It’s located on LBS Marg, near Vikroli Stn. It’s a no-brainer here to order a thali, chicken or fish. The Surmai thali was good with a huge Surmai fry accompanied by a tangy fish curry. The Wade are typically malvani, the solkadi is just perfect. The food is tasty and this place is no pushover. The bhakri and chapatis are made homemade style. It’s a typical malvani restaurant without any bells or whistles. Scan, Eat, Exit, Foodie Commando Style ☺️
Small outlet and has seating of around 40 people. One might have to wait for few minutes before getting hold of a seat during lunch hours(1 pm - 2:30 pm). Cost effective sea food joint. If you are not a sea food fan it is better to avoid as it specializes in sea food dishes only.
Ordered :
1. Promfret Fry(Small) - It is one of my favorite starter in any sea food joint. Must have in here.
2. Surmai Masala - The size of the fish was medium and tasted quite good.
3. Crab Masala - Whatever you order don't forget to taste one of these. The best dish in here and the masala had the best flavor I have tasted in a long time. We had these dishes with Neer Dosa and Chapati and they were fine.
4. Egg Biryani - The quantity of it was enough to fill ones appetite. Taste is same as like other egg biryani we get in other food joints nothing special in this.
5. Chicken Biryani - Quantity was same as mentioned above for egg. Didn't like this dish that much and it wasn't that good as well better to have an Egg Biryani in this outlet rather than Chicken one.
6. Kokum Kadi - We finished off with this desert and it tasted quite good.
Must visit for ones staying or having office near this outlet and of course you need to be a sea food lover as I have mentioned earlier as well.
This is restaurant is for nonveg loving peoples, every dish contains nonveg best for sea food, I've ate here a chicken wada and much more, it is not expensive, fine restaurant it is, i like the service and the way it serves the food typical maharashtrian konkni style best for sea food dishes.
Malvan katta this is a small hotel beside the LBS ROAD.One of the best thing I like to share is taste of dish in this hotel.Every dish taste is nice with excellent presentation.Tipikaly Malvani Lunch or dinner is available here for who wish to eat Malvan food.My favorite Dish in Malvan katta is Komdi Vade😋😋😋😋😋
Good place to enjoy malvani non veg food and sole kadhi at very low prices. My favorite is crab thali and with bhakri .........................................
Quite a decent place which is light on the pocket. Ordered prawns thali, prawns masala,mutton masala and prawns biryani. Prawns masala and mutton masala had the same type of gravy . But mutton was cooked very well; something which even many good restaurants cannot 'achieve' today. Chapatis were very nice too. However Prawn biryani was not something that I would recommend though as it was just some rice and prawns mixed together. Also sol kadi wasnt upto the mark which was more on the sour side. Overall a satisfactory experience(if you dont expect too much) which is light on the pocket.
Amazing food with low price. Place is little bit conjuncted. Specially bombil fry is very good. Best place to go with friends and family. Great
Malvan katta is the limited sitting Maharashtrian cuisine restaurant located on LBS Road Vikhroli near Cipla. Above rating purely focuses on food, taste, quantity, price, location and service.
Tried the mutton thali which was just authentic with perfectly priced filled with loads of Malvan spices in thick mutton gravy, bowl of gravy and rice, couple of bhakari/chapati made up of rice and a bowl of sol Kadhi.
Tummy filling rate-5
Thank you
Its a place which is at a walkable distance from vikhroli station, the place serves amazing malvani food, it is a small joint opposite highway and is neat and clean. Don't go there if you are looking for amazing ambience. The food is too good, I tried their prawn thali and their bombil thali. Quantity wise they are big hearted.
One thali can easily be shared by two people of average appetite.
I ordered a pompret fish thali which a big piece of crispy bombil fry along with bombil malvani curry which was yummy and tangy and the fry was crispy. Along with that they give 2 bhakris, which were softer than cotton and solkadi and malvani chutney which was yum.
All in all good food and fish lovers must visit.
i happened to find this Malwani gem on my way to the daily grind. One of the best things about this joint is that it feels a lot like home cooked food.
i have tried their Prawns Masala, Bangda fry and soul kadi (yes, that's how i write it cuz i freaking love it so much, it touches my soul).
Its affordable, their prawns are massive, food tastes authentic, what else do you need?
Cannot describe the taste Wow what a taste of bombil fry barleli bombil chicken wade mutton wade bheja fry pomfret prawns mutton biryani chicken biryani prawns biryani and the chatni wow it tastes so awesome i took 4 vatis of chatni with the food and budget to in our pockets
It's awesome place to took family for dinner. Specially for non-veg dish lovers like chicken/Mutton,Fish curry etc with minimum cost.Test like kokani masala.
This is restaurant is specially for coastal food lovers..
ambiene is average more like restaurants we see in alibag, Konkan towns but it doesn't matter if taste is so authentic...
try surmai n prawns both are awesome, had tried mutton fry too it was delicious and sol kadi is at its best....overall an decent restaurant to satisfy your budget meal with cost of 600 for 2 people
One of the best Malvani restaurants I have ever eaten at!! Everything we ordered was yum!! The fried prawns was perfect. The food is on the spicy side...but not unbearable!
Not just your one stop solution for mouthwatering and delicious food but also very affordable and hygienic place to go with family and friends. A cooperative staff and prompt service adds to the customer experience. A must visit for all the fish fans out there.
AWESOME Place. Have been here twice. Delicious Malvani Cuisine. ✌👌.
Tried Bombal Thali and Surmai Thali. Fish was fresh with good Quantity
Sol Kadhi was authentic.
Next time is Bharlele Promfret in my list
Bill for three ppl was only 640. Tht was pretty cool.
Almost my everydays lunch being nearer to offive_ Worth anytime for sea food lovers_ Bit crowdy at times but still deservs 4 out of 5 🍤🍤🍤🍤🍤
This is one of those places where after looking at it you don't want to enter, because you think it might not be as per your expectations. Yes, if you think about the ambience but no if you are thinking about the quality of food and taste. This is one of the best places in Vikhroli to have a authentic malvani food. This is the place to go when you actually don't care about anything other than food taste. I had chicken thali and prawns thali and it really tasted very good. Apart from the kind of solkadi you get here tastes very natural with less added sugars. Overall my rating for this restaurant is as below:
1. Ambience - 2.5/5
2. Convienience - 4/5
3. Food quality - 5/5
4. Service - 4/5
5. Value for money - 5/5
Though Hotel Malvan Katta had been right opposite my home, I somehow never thought of going there. Till one afternoon when hunger struck me too bad and I crossed the road to have some khichdi. I am glad I did!
Its a small hotel more on the lines of a dhaba with a menu of authentic Malvani food. I ordered for a kokum and khichdi. The quantity of food was quite good for the cost. Taste-wise too both kokum and khichdi were good.
I only hoped I had tried it sooner for some good value for money lunches.

Found this place while travelling to kanjur marg via LBS ... always love malvani food and this time again best fish i had with a better taste. Tried fish MORI dry and bombil fry. Good service , reasonable rate. This place dont have AC section.
Food is fantabulous... Let me correct the name first.. This is Hotel Malvan Katta and not Malvani Katta. This is on LBS Marg Vikhroli once you cross the turning for Vikhroli station (you find it on the left side of the road while going towards Mulund). The seating is just a tad better then a jhunka bakar centre, with basic seating tables numbered around ten .. But mark my words the food and taste is no less than any top seafood malvan restaurant in Mumbai.. They have a wide variety of thalis starting from all regular fish thalies, chicken and mutton.. Then there are all regular fish fry items from bangda to surmai to mandeli to pomfret.. You also get really soft bhakris & tasty kokum..Something which you may not find in other malvan joints is bheja masala fry (which is good). The price is absolutely right for the malvan fare on sale.. The place is mostly frequented by IIT Powai students and the young corporate crowd from the nearby corporate IT parks.. The service is good and the owner is also always there looking after your needs.. Trust me guys, this one is a hidden gem.. At least for the food.
It is a quaint little place located on lbs marg just a walking distance away from vikhroli station. It is quite popular among the office crowd as many establishments are located in the vicinity. Thought I have tasted better malwani food in other places, this place is much affordable and the quantity is good too
The stuffed pomfret was quite fresh, stuffed with green chutney it was the ideal accomplice to the thalis we had. The fried prawns were a bit salty and average tasting
The batter they use for frying stuff need to be improved a lot as its quite tasteless and bland , thanks to fresh fish stuff it is compensated for. The surmai fry thali and chicken fry masala thalis were good. The vadas were tasty too.
But what is really recommended here is the prawns biryani. It was easily the best dish of the evening..Small and consistent chunks of prawns in an aromatic long grained rice preparation was the star of the dinner.
Recommended for sure if you are in the neighborhood and wanting for some reasonable yet tasty malwani food
Small place buzzing with office goers during lunch hours located on lbs Road. We got a place in 10 mins but had to share a table with 2 other people who eventually left... So coming to the food... The mandeli fry was nice and crispy but the batter didn't have any sort of taste. The prawns fry was also crispy and well cooked with a sort of Chinese flavour to the batter. The biryani was a bit spicy, loaded with garam masala but tastes good. Overall pocket friendly place.
For the mass!!

Best For Non-vegetarian lovers. Try some chicken 🍗 recipes like biryani, tikka, makhni and all. Hotel is clean and nit. All food items are eatable and fresh.
One of the best places in vikhroli for Sea Food. I would suggest opting for a thali (they have many options) which is a stomach filling and low on cost. Also if you are visiting here on a Friday do reach early as it get heavily crowded post 8-8.30.
It is a place with simple ambience and close placement of chairs and tables but the food is good and tasty and easy on your pocket. Malvan Katta is located on LBS stretch of Vikhroli on the opposite side of Home Town.
Chicken and fish thalis were ordered, separately bombil fry, bangda fry, crab masala, shimpi masala was ordered. Bombil fry was superb. Bangda fry had a smokey taste - something different. All items were very spicy and had coconut grated into the masala.
The bill for 7 adults and 3 children below 12 years came to just about Rs.1,600/- for a full-fledged dinner and some extras.
For the kind of money that they charge, the food is absolute value for money.
Staff is courteous and efficient.

It was exactly opposite experience this time. Extra ordinary surmai thali, served hot. Nothing more required to tingle the taste buds.
Old review :
It was horrible experience this time..
Rates are same but quality has degraded.. The pomfret was dripping oil, just crispy and no taste of pomfret...
It is degrading in quality day by day...
Had visited Home Town in Vikhroli yesterday.. After shopping was looking for some good place to eat. After a little bit of hunting came across this small quaint restaurant. Initially i was hesitant, but went ahead and sat across a small table. It is a small place but there was no crowd even after being a sunday evening. Ordered Chicken sukka thali for myself and ghavane with vatana usal for my wife. Chicken was spicy but tasty. Also quantity was good. overall the food was really very good and as expected. Price was resonable. staff was polite and courteous. Would love to visit this place again with friends and family.
Thank you.
If good food came in simple packages, then this restaurant is a classic example. Small, very basic set up. You are bound to get upset by the wash basin and they don't give you finger bowl. You have cramped seating to ensure more people can sit and eat. The annoyance ends there! The moment the food arrives, you tend to let go the things which bothered you a while ago. Hot bhakri, tasty and spicy chicken biryani or the prawns masala thali...all are tasty to say the least. Top it with sol kadi or bombil fry. Well I wish their bombil or bombay duck fish was bigger and thicker. Yet the small servings won't disappoint you as much. I have visited this restaurant at least 10 times in last 6 months or so. And every time I think about eating some good food, I think about this eatery! But remember it's strictly maharashtrian coastal food joint. Keep all your Italian, Continental and American food habit behind including the spoons and the forks.
Don't draw your impression by the looks of this restaurant. It looks a bit chaaloo set up, its is good enough to take your family and it doesn't serve alcohol too, so that makes it fit for family dining... The food is amazing. Must try is surmai fry and kolambi sukka...bhakri is amazing too.And in terms of value for money, its a spot on deal.
Its a medium cost malvan eatery. Though the setting isn't that great, don't get dissuaded by the set up. It offers, really good bhakri, prawn masala thali, sol kadi and biryani in malvan style. Average cost per person is approx. 200-250 rupees.
Impressed. The taste of Malvan, spicy fish and chicken made my day. The chicken lollipop was softer. I had expected to be much solid. The fish made you go to Malvan in your imagination. Awesome taste. A must go for all the Malvan food lovers.
Simple Restaurant but delicious food..My hubby says Paisa vasool food over here...Must try Prawns dry thali with bhakri & Dry chiken thali with wade......Fast service.
Simple Restaurant ...Awesome Food...
Non AC simple restaurant. Just started couple of months ago.
Must Have:
Deshi Kombdi Sukkhi Thali and Prawns Koliwada
Rates do not burn up your pocket.
Though the taste is not authentic Malwani (anyways most of the Malwani Restaurant are owned by Shetty's...you would hardly find any authentic Malwani food).
It's bit on the spicier side. The Solkadhi is BAD. Wade are good but must have is Bhakri.
Approx. charges for two (Rs.600) with one starter and two thalis
Food was really great and Budget Friendly.
We had ordered Prawns Fry, Prawns Thali, Surmai Thali and Prawns Biryani.
Prawns size was good and taste was really delicious.
Overall good restaurant to have seafood.
This place serves tasty non veg food especially sea food.. Seafood is tastier than chicken.. you can also get meals/thalis herewhich includes rice, bhakri(indian bread made with rice flour), solkadhi, dry fish, gravy and main dish(fish fry/curry).. the quality of their food is very nice.. 🐠
The taste and portion was amazing. Only one complaint Aircondition wasn't working. But the owner gave a discounted price that's a nice gesture.
Follow @fooodie_mann on insta for more updates.
Tasty Malvani food, specially for sea food lovers who can fulfill the hunger of non veg food.. pocket friendly.. AC/ Non AC both sections available,
You should definitely visit the place if you are a fan of authentic malavni cuisine. The fried bombay duck will melt in your mouth. Coconut rich curry of Surmai fish was perfect. Eating it with bhakri makes it a great combination. Overall very good experience!
Malwan Katta is on the way and is located near Gandhinagar. This place offers both veg and non veg food. If you are a vegetarian don't be disappointed they have many varieties and you will love it. The food is quite good and mouth watering. For sea food lover this place is for you guys as the name of the place itself says malwan Katta. They serve fresh fishes e.g. surmai, bangdu, bombil, crab prawns both in gravy curry and fried too. They serve fish thali of the desired fish you want. I would recommend go for mandli fry for starters and for main course go for surmai and crab also bombil fry was mouth watering. Solkadhi tastes the best. They also serve chicken and mutton. Both in gravy and thali. You have options to eat. They serve soft drinks as well. Place is quite small but is usually crowded and quantity and quality is excellent. Do visit this place as it is on the go.
Very good authentic malvani food. Kombdi Vade and Mutton Vade is must have. And after everything solkadhi is must. If you working near lbs vikhroli its good to have food here. Sitting area is small. But taste is good.

What we ordered :
- A gorgeous 'Chicken Sukka Thali'
Succulent Chicken with spicy thick gravy.
Sol Kadi was made to soulful perfection.
The rice contained no soda.
The meal was lite on stomach.
PRO Tip BRO : Go empty Stomach to be able to relish it truly.
Good tasty food. Chicken mutton and all fish recipes available . Ambience is of regular small dhaba like restaurant. Brain fry, liver fry all marathi style non veg dishes available. Resonable and good for families and groups

If you know the taste of fresh pomfret then this is the place to go for that fresh taste of pomfret. Its a go to place for me when I crave for a good fish. The only missing is they could serve a nice green chutney with raw mango as it is in season. Which would go best with all the fried starters.
Located at the road side . Food taste is good . Has varieties in fish thali , crabs etc .
Verry testi food
Special surmai thali my best 😁😁🤗
