Was very hungry after shopping at Hill Road and we came across this new place - MonQo. It is the first outlet in Mumbai after a successful chain in Kerala. This place is great for chilling with their refreshing shakes and sundaes along with delicious quick-bites. The staff is very generous with prompt service.
The food we ordered
~ UDTA PUNJAB BURGER - Had burger after a long time and this one was truly satisfying. It was fresh, juicy and served with fries and dips.
~ PANEER STEAK - This place is known for their steaks so we went for this. The paneer was so soft, served with stir fried veggies and sauce. Really loved it.
~ RED VELVET SHAKE - A classic red velvet is always a bliss. It was so rejuvenating. Recommended
~ NUTELLA SUNDAE - Ordered this sundae to end the meal with and let me tell you it was the best part. The presentation was okay but the taste was too amazing. A Must Try.
Overall, the experience was delightful. It is a must visit place, specially to try out their shakes and sundaes. Thank you for having us.
*New Place Alert*
Monqo which is a amazing cafe from Kerala has opened it's first store in Mumbai. It's located near Bata showroom on Hill Road which is 10mins from Bandra station. The ambience is beautiful with wooden furniture and games placed on each table that would attract more crowd from numerous colleges around. The staff was super friendly and helpful with the menu.
Shakes and steaks are their specialities and they have pao based items for Mumbai.
We tried-
Diliwala Fries - French fries served with spicy sweet dip. The dip is unique and tasty and also their invented recipe.
Paneer Tikka Roll - really yum and fullfiling quantity.
Paneer Steak - A must try Sizzler with paneer steak, veggies, Fresh fries and potatoes.
Ferrero Rocher milkshake - This is a strong recommendation for Chocolate lovers.
Caramel Popcorn Shake - This one was suggestion from the staff and I am glad I went for it. Super delicious and must must have.
Overall great experience and a very promising place in the vicinity. Will definitely recommend to visit them.
This Kerala giant stake and shake joint has finally opened doors to the mumbai market and we couldn't help but try this place out!
What we had:
Red Velvet Shake - If the flavours were enough, this aint no essence shake, this is the real deal! They actually put the red velvet cake along with two huge scoops of ice cream in this shake
Caramel Popcorn - Good chunks of popcorn and generous servings of caramel sauce along with ice cream and cream, this tasted so delicious!
Chimi Churri Potato and Jalapeno Pao - More like a burger with patty, this item packed enough heat with all that jalapeno but we totally enjoyed it with the sweet shakes!
Paneer & Mushroom Kiev - Crispy coated paneer chunks with super flavourful minched mushroom sandwiched in between, this was a great appetizer.
Vegetable Burger Steak - Deconstructed burger more like it on a sizzle plate, the fries and wedges combo that it came along with was a first for us and we totally enjoyed it!
Over all, great experience and we are sure this place is here to stay!
A classic place found in Bandra. Monqo is a newly opened place with amazing menu.

Steaks and shakes is what I would say about this place..!
Went to this newly opened cafe for snacks after shopping session at hill road.! Place is so well designed with simple and elegant elements.! They have a library with few books, some indoor games which makes this place more interesting.! Seating was super comfortable.!
Staff and service at this place is upto the mark. Staff was courteous and well trained. Service was flawless.
Food and beverages! This is well known brand for shakes in kerala and they are now in Mumbai. Their shakes are very delicious and one more unique stuff at this place is cold stone ice-cream sundaes.! Food menu is short and sweet.! Little less options for vegetarians but the ones in the menu are apt for satisfaction.!
We ordered a pasta and a paneer steak with potato wedges. Pasta was undercooked which upon discussing they changed and served a perfectly cooked one. This type of service definitely makes me happy and makes me visit the place again.! Taste wise it was good..! Portion size was good enough for two.
Don't miss the steak when at monQo.! Really loved the way it was prepared. Paneer slices topped with delicious, spicy sauce and served along with butter sautéed veggies and potato wedges.! Overall taste was amazing. Paneer can be little more softer.!
*** Highly Recommended ***
Shakes are another specialization of this place and it was worth trying. We ordered a ferrero rocher shake and it was super delicious.!
Cold stone ice cream which is unique and very difficult to find is available at this place. You can watch your Sundae getting prepared on the cold marble.! Nutella Sundae was really good in taste and was presented very well.!
Overall a good place to eat, play and sip some delicious shakes. Comfortable cafe with some good food options to spend an hour or two.
Monqo styles itself as Shakes, Stakes and more restrauant. I was warmly welcomed by both Alain and sahil. Thank you for your kind service. It was nice that the manager also came and explained the menu to us. Obviously I had to try their food.
I ordered:
1. Alphonso mango shake: This was the BEST shake I have had in a while. The flavour was so refreshing. Please do try.
2. White chocolate shake: I have been to so many restaurants that have dark/milk chocolate shakes. But when I saw white chocolate I had to try. It was very authentic in flavour. Not too sweet as well.
3. Trucker chicken burger: this burger is served with fries and tossed veggies. It was good
4. Honey mustard grilled chicken: this is served with wedge and tossed veggies. This also has a side of garlic bread. Over all the dish is good and I suggest you try this.
My only tip was that the chicken could have been more jucy.
But over all I had a great time. Thank you and I wish you all the best !
MonQo's first ever outlet in Maharashtra is in Bandra after a successful response to it in all over Kerala. It's in-between the busy streets of Hill road with a spacious seating availability and a live counter for shakes and sundae's. Though famous for Thick shakes, they also have steaks, sizzlers, sandwiches and roll.
Tried two of their shakes - Red Velvet and Nutella. Both extremely creamy and amazing. We would definitely suggest both.
Had their Honey Mustard Grilled Chicken which came along with a Garlic bread, potato wedges and sauce. The steak was tender and the honey mustard sauce was absolutely delicious.
Also tried their Chicken Steak Sizzler that came along with mashed potatoes and stir fried veggies along with the sauce.
Overall all, one dish can be enough for one person and worth the price.
One thing which disturbed us was the live counter was extremely noisy unlike other cafes.

Milkshakes Just Got A Brand New Makeover
at MonQo
MonQo is one of the popular brands for serving some amazing variety of shakes in India. Their journey started from Kerala where alone they have around 6 branches which grew in no time. Now the brand has extended further to cities like Hyderabad and Mumbai. Recently I had the opportunity to visit its Mumbai outlet and I must say I was definitely impressed with the quality of food and beverages.
Located in a narrow lane near the Bata store, Hill Road Bandra West Mumbai, MonQo does have a great curated menu that serves continental, Fast Food & Beverages even the steaks, burgers, snacks, sandwiches, Kathi rolls are extremely delicious. What you will really enjoy about MonQo is the casual relaxed vibe of the place which is mainly because of its sweet welcoming staff. The staff is really cool, you can actually have a conversation with them, plus they also guide you through the menu to help you pick your meals.
Even though the place might not be so spacious but the ambiance is quaint and its made interesting with entertainment elements like Guitar and board games. So you can enjoy some music and a chess game with your friends over great meals and shakes. The seating is comfortable/cozy and the place is very popular amongst the millennials crowd. The highlight of the Ambiance is the fantastic 3D Red Indian wall art and apparently, the MonQo name has also been inspired by it.
Now coming to the Shakes and Food this is what I tried:
1. MonQo Exotic Shake - Red Velvet
Rs 199
5*/5
Oh guys, this was such a mind-blowing thick milkshake. All their shakes are very filling quantity-wise. Red Velvet pastry, rich chocolate shake is one of its best sellers which you must try.

Visited the newly opened MonQo outlet for the brunch today. It's the very first outlet of MonQo in Maharashtra and we couldn't be happier about arrival in Bandra. They specialize in continental and a variety of fast food.
The decor at the place is clean and minimalist. The hygiene maintained at the place deserve a special mention.
The staff is very humble and helpful. Also, very welcoming to the feedbacks.
Here's from my plate at the place:
1. Kitkat Shake
2. Kiwi Shake
They have a pretty elaborate menu for beverages. There are a lot of choice in chocolate shakes, also if you are bored with regular chocolate drinks the menu have a lot more to offer in fruit shakes and others.
Both the shakes that we tried were simply delicious.
Fish n chips:
The fish chips tasted great. The fish served was so fresh and soft. The outer layer was perfectly crispy in proportion to the softness inside. It was complemented with fries. The quantity quite suffices for 2 people.
Grilled Veg Sandwich
The sandwich was truly delicious. It wasn't like the regular grilled sandwiches we get around. It was loaded with the stuffings. The sandwich was complemented with some fries.
Overall it was a great experience. Do visit the place, if you are around the vicinity.
Monqo is a newly opened cafe in Mumbai, Bandra. It has its branches in Hyderabad and Bengaluru. They serve great shakes, awesome Sizzlers, pasta, burger, grilled items etc.

The food there is damn delicious!
I tried:
1. Grilled chicken and chicken Sizzler: they where yumm. They were served in a brown sauce which is outstanding. I just feel in love with that. It was Soo tasty!
Next I tried the shakes. Which is what this place is famous for.
Their shakes are very thick and delicious.
I tired the:
Ferrero Rocher Shake and dry fruits shake.
Both were amazing. The dry fruits shake was Soo healthy and tasty. Ferrero Rocher Shake was perfect for any Chocolate lover.
Overall I loved the place and the food.
