FOOD ~
We tried some out of the crowd dishes present in the menu. Red Paneer, Chicken Triology, Cheesy Loaded Nachos and Green Salad.
The food is a roller-coaster ride for your palate, touching corners of various different flavours.
Red Paneer is crispy and spicy. The paneer is extremely soft and delicious. As you bite into the dish it is mild but within a few seconds the Peri Peri masala hits your palate. Recommended, worth a try.
Chicken Triology has 3 distinct flavours on the plate. Harissa (green in color), Charmola (red in color) and Ioly (yellow in color) just like traffic lights is a delight to see and eat. Charmola is spicy and Harissa has an authentic Thai flavour.
Chessy Loaded Nachos and Delectable Green Salad is highly recommended. You should try.
Hoppipola
Being a food hedonist, i think this place best suits for everyone out there who loves nibbling on quick bites along with lot of gossip and drinks to sip on. This place is quiet famous among the college crowd. Students come and chill out here. It's perfect for casual hangouts with your friends.
The outdoor ambience is quirky and pleasing. Interiors can be modified and maintaibed efficiently. As soon as one enters, the rustic and pretty clocks hanging on the walls seeks everyone's attention. Service is prompt of course.
What foodiesoulmates hogged on-
1. Thread paneer- It was a star dish of the day. I never tried it before anywhere and loved it here. Paneer pieces were fresh and wrapped in batter giving it a thread like look. The dip served complemented the dish. This starter was bang on.
2. Chicken triology- Skewers kinda chicken dish. Chicken skewers were cooked in three different sauces. I loved it.
3. Cheesy nachos- Crispy nachos were topped with cheesy sauce having apt proportion of proteins. It was one hell of a cheesy nachos.
4. Jerk chicken pizza- Thin pizza crust topped with ample of chicken chunks, few veggies, sauces and good amount of cheese of course. I thoroughly relished it.
5. BBQ chicken burger- This huge messy burger makes you wide open your mouth to take a bite of it. The big chicken piece was crunchy and tasty.
6. Smart Bhel Chaat- It was well curated and something different totally. Veggies were blended with bhel and sev. Well curated desi version of salad we can say.
7. Sizzling brownie- Soft, fresh brownie was topped with vanilla icecream. I think I would have relished it more if the brownie was gooey, dark and moist. Nevertheless i still liked it.
I loved orange caprioska mocktail, it was super duper refreshing and perfect drink to pair with your appetizers and main course.
We had delightful time here.
One of the good place in Aundh for Lunch/Dinner. We went there for lunch. Perfect place to chill out with family, friends and loved ones. The ambience is pretty simple and well decored.
We tried the following items in Menus:-
⚫Starters:-
🌟Chicken trilogy,
🌟Thread paneer,
🌟Cheesy nachos
⚫ Mains:-
🌟Jerk chicken pizza🍕
🌟 BBQ chicken burger 🍔
🌟Quesadilla tower
⚫Dessert:-
🌟Sizzling brownie
⚫Mocktails:-

🌟Orange🍊 piroksha.
Loved the Thread paneer must try 💯. .✴ They have pub luch offers @375₹. You will get one starter veg or non-veg. In the main course you will get pizza🍕/burger🍔/roll or pasta🍝. In the dessert you will get Brownie with ice cream🍦. In beverages, you will get One glass of draught beer or Mocktail. It's a great deal for one person 🤩.
All the starters, main course, and mocktails were amazing. Definitely worth a penny💰We had a great time here loving the place. Gonna visit this place again for sure.
Hoppipola is an amazing place for casual hangouts with your friends or get togethers. The ambience outdoor is pleasant and decent. The cute clocks there add more beauty to the place overall. They have open kitchen, so you can even notice your food been cooked in front of you. The indoor ambience could be much better. Service was great. We tried few dishes here which I would recommend you all to try if you pay your visit here.
1. Chicken triology (4.5/5)
2. Thread paneer (5/5) personally loved it and went well with the sweet chutney (dip) served along with it.
3. Cheesy nachos (4.5/5)
4. Jerk chicken pizza (4.5/5)
5. BBQ chicken burger (4/5)
In mocktaiks we sipped on Orange caprioska and Hot guava punch, both were refreshing and rejuvenating.
We ended our meal on sweeter note by adding sweetness to our taste buds. Sizzling brownie was good but it would have been more enjoyable if brownie was more gooey and moist. I would rate it (4/5).
Overall we enjoyed the meal here.
Good place.... i visit to my friends.... nice decorated place i like it.... next time i will visit again.... most fev restuarant in pune....

If you are looking for a place to chill with delicious food and amazing drinks then this is your place. The ambiance is pretty chilled out with indoor and outdoor seating. The staff is also courteous. I tried :
Cheesy Nachos :
I love how it was loaded with cheese sauce and salsa. One of the best in town. 🧀
Paneer Tacos :
Crispy tacos with paneer in mexican sauce. It was filling and tasty. 🌮
Veg Mexican Mama Roll :
The yummiest roll I have had in a long time. The beans and veggies filling was perfectly cooked and stuffed. Highly recommended. 🌯
Old Monk Chicken Wings :
Spicy bbq chicken wings cooked with old monk so nicely that had an aftertaste of old monk. 💯🍗
Mac Pizza :
A thin crust pizza with cheese, basil and ofcourse macaroni topped with sweet n sour sauce. 🍕😋
Prawn Fry :
Delicious prawns fried in indian style which was feeling so fresh and sapid. 🍤😍
Overall I loved the food and enjoyed my time here. I highly recommend this place for a happy meal with groovy music. Do give this place a visit. 💕💯
This place have always served me good with all time good vibes. I the best thing about this place is you can interact/indulge in fun activities present in this place. Last time I played Jenga with huge blocks which was really exciting.
Moving on to food items I had Avalanche Nachos which are super good. Also, I tried Mac-N-Cheese pizza which was also good in taste and was worth trying.
The staff was pretty friendly and the ambiance is just amazing. Would definitely recommend people to hang out at this place.
A common name in Aundh for hangouts, quick eats, good drinks and a fun evening. It has existed since I can last remember. With a spacious outdoor seating (inside the restaurant) and indoor space as well, you have plenty of room for small and large groups. There also is an open kitchen and bar for display,
Service is as good as any. Food is served timely and servers are very courteous.
An absolute must try is their Paneer Tacos. Quick grub, filling, delicious in taste. The chicken BBQ wings and the cheese nachos are pretty good as well. For a change you can also try their mac pizza.
For Drinks, you must try the Negroni! Hands down one of the better Negronis ever.
Cost for two is under Rs 800, which is reasonable and value for money is high. Music is great as well.
Needless, to say the place is safe and near perfect for anyone looking to have a blast. Awesome!
Pizza is round, slices are triangular and comes in a square box.
Wait what? 🤣

Jerk chicken Pizza at Hoppipola, Aundh.

Had this amazing, succulent, mouth watering Pizza at Hoppipola on Christmas day! I love thin crust pizza and this was a juicy and tasty treat. It is not spicy and the chicken Chunks are generously spread. Also it was perfectly cooked, the crusts were not burnt (I usually have to deal with burnt crusts lol) and altogether a great pick from their menu!

Yummy Sunday Brunch
We visited this place on Sunday, which is located in Aundh. I was really impressed with the colourful interior. The vibes were fresh and music was good. The food items we tried in Sunday Brunch was super good and service was great.
We tried:
Cesar salad: The veggies was fresh and crisp was perfect.
Paneer Chilly: This was one of the perfect dish with all the necessary flavours. Highly recommended.
Honey Chilly Potato: I loved the color combination of this dish. It was looking so yummy red fries on black dish. Perfect appetizer with drinks.
Chicken Trilogy: As per the name of the dish, this was the three different flavours of the chicken. All flavours were amazing.
Jerk Pizza: The thin crispy base with full of veggies, chicken and cheese. I love the pizza.
Triple Schezwan Chicken Rice: The rice was delicious with balanced Chinese flavour.
Dessert:
Churros with chocolate sauce: They are serving this at it's best. This is one of my favourite and highly recommended.
Slice of Brownie with Ice Cream: Spongy and at the same time crunchy brownie served with ice cream that made it more tempting.
Overall the experience was good and happening. I highly recommend this place for weekend vibes.
Rajeev was the best to serve..food was also very nice.nice ambience nice place to hang out wid friends.
Service Ambience music was good . Love the music and service. Food was excellent. Rakesh was the best man to meet in hoppi good serivce

This place is a casual hang out and chilled out place in Aundh. Honestly speaking this place is quite a hit amongst youngsters! Quirky and pretty interiors with a outdoor seating. While sipping onto some good drinks along with food and of-course the background music sets up for the perfect mood.They also have really interesting and quirky presented drinks. Keep a look out for their special deals as well.So from the drinks , personally liked the Long Island Ice Freeze and Orangepiroskha.
As much as the ambience is pretty light, they have a vast menu catering to every type of crowd. So we started with their Veg Caesar salad which was quite a healthy decent option which was filled with fresh vegetables, cheese, croutons .Then moving over, had tried Peri Peri Cheese Ling which was basically crispy, slight spicy french fries tossed with sauce.From the starters here is a glimpse of what we tried:
▪Paneer Chilly-Paneer chunks sauteed in spices topped in flavorful sauce. This is the perfect pick for appetizing appetizer in veg!
▪Chicken Trilogy and Pepper Garlic Lolly- These two dishes were just so succulent and tasty.
Anyone would be craving for a pizza after having some drinks and starters. So had tried Jerk Chicken Thin Crust Pizza.The overall taste was good enough and the amount of seasoning, toppings and chicken pieces were decent enough.
Then coming to the main course, went ahead with Thai Green Curry Veg.It was full of flavors and simple enough, loved the taste.!!The entire meal ended on a sweet note with their Slice of Brownie with Ice cream and Churros with Chocolate Sauce.
So concluding, the staff over here were very courteous and the service was flawless. Overall had a good experience.
This is a great place to hang out, party and chill out with friends. Would surely recommend!!
Happy Eating!Follow @yummydelightsdiary on Instagram
THIS PLACE IS AN AMAZING. IT'S JUST GOOD . WHAT THEY DO MAKE IS REALY GOOD. I WOULD HAVE RATED IT 5 STARS. FOR A JUICY BURGER WITH CRESPY FRIES AND PASTA. THIS PLACE IS A FANTASTIC VALUE! I AND THE SERVICE GIVEN BY RAKESH IS EXCELLENT. I WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK HERE ON A REGULAR BASIS... THANK YOU FOR LOVELY HOSPITALITY..

BRUNCH - AUNDH
A good brunch experience at this super nicely done place with a fresh vibe and good enough service for a brunch service.
Below are the items I tried:
Masala Pizza - Thin crust pizza loaded with veggies, ideal and done nicely.
Chicken Trilogy: Had satay chicken with three different flavors, I personally loved the harissa one! all three were cooked to perfection, too good.
Pepper Garlic Lolly: Typical chicken lollipop with a slight change in flavors, nothing extraordinary.
Paneer Chili: Too good, finger-licking good.
Honey Chili Potato: basic and ideal, a must-have on the table.
Garlic Bread: oh this was bad, the bread was toast, the cheese, and other toppings were not at all making a good combo, a lazy attempt.
Peri Peri CheeseLing : chakna item! cheeslings topped sprayed with masala on top!
Churros with Chocolate Sauce: Oily crispy tasty churros served with chocolate sauce. Ideally many wouldn't like it but personally loved it. Guilty.
Slice of Brownie with ice cream: Ultra light slices of brownie were super enjoyable. One can easily finish the entire plate by himself. Good one!
(I skipped the entire main course as I was full, the main course items had Chinese, Thai and Indian items)
Drinks: kf draught beer and virgin mojito
☰ Place: Hoppipola
☰ Address: Hotel Shree Nanda Excellency, 126/2B, ITI Road, Aundh, Pune
Happy eating, spread the positivity.
Rajiv is one of the best guy from Hoppipola team
Rajiv is one of the best attender I have known till date..
Hoppipola is a known brand and I have visited them in Powai, Mumbai a few times. Since we were near for a meeting we thought of grabbing a few drinks to lighten up. Nice vibe of the place which you would love to visit again.
Great place in the aundh area to enjoy with friends, lots of offers on the drinks, ambience is quite colorful...with gaming options, food is very good, and the service is fast and attentive too....will surely recommend ...will be back for more booze...
This place is
Good for young crowd.music was good food could be more better as compared to price

I have heard this name over and over again ever since I moved to Baner, Pune Location.
So as usual I kept this place in my bhukkad-list, and ticked off in this month only.
There is an intern in our office team, and it was his birthday, so we all decided to celebrate it. The venue was fixated on Hoppipola.
And I guess it was a good choice. Though the service was little slow than expected but it allowed us to spend some good time caching up upon multiple things.
Coming to the main part of food,
The food review is a bit mixed but overall it was a nice place. With decent food options.
We ordered many dishes and found out few to be very good and few to be below average.
So the Jalapeno Cheese Bomb were not good as the cheese was very liquidish which made them taste bad, On the contrary Truffle Trio pizza was really good.
Cottage Cheese Trilogy was really good, the presentation was creative and eye-catchy. We also liked the Cottage Cheese Steak sizzlers.
The Shanghai Bento Meal was a good choice too, but taste could have been better
Coming to the service part, It was considerably slow. I am not sure if it was particularly on that day or its usual. But yes that was tortoise-slow.
The alcohol is light on the pocket and that seems to be one of the reason of the popularity.
The ambience is really nice, and has interesting bits and pieces all over the place. I personally loved the airplane models hanging to the roof. Also this place has multiple options for board games, this will make up for the slow service! just kidding.
If you want something to be light on your pocket for drinking alcohol in Aundh. This is the place for you guys.

On 28th August, my Football team decided to have a night out post our recent victory. As my office is at Aundh we were looking for options near by. I called Joel from Rewind Events and told him what the occasion was, he was kind to understand and suggested some packages which would be best. Once it was confirmed Joel booking a table for 15 of us and we here there. The staff i must say is very friendly compared to most place in pune i have been to.
The food and quality is amazing must try the bbq wings which was my favourite. Waiting to come back again

Hoppipola is one of the nice place for parting on weekends. Music and food is pretty good. Visited 4 times and not disappointed till date. Must visit..
This place is great for a bear or a drink after along day at work (specially if you had a hard day). The ambience is great. The waiters are very polite. But the cost is not pocket-friendly, if you don't go there in happy hours.
They have great food options. We tried couple of non veg starters and main course. Drinks are economical. Ambience is not that great. They have valet parking and don’t have to park on road.
Visited this place at weekend night. Fabulous place to hangout with your friends. This place is good option for food and drinks with amazing music. The dj played both Hollywood and Bollywood which pumped everyone after few drinks. The staff is very helpful. Along with all these it has zomato gold privilage also. I had amazing time with my friend's here.

One of the best place in Aundh for food and drinks. Good and polite staff. We ordered chicken chatter platter, dal makhani with chilli garlic and nachos. Delicious food.
Hey can anyone tell me whether Bladder Burst Beer challenge is available in this outlet in Pune like mumbai one. It's available in mumbai and bangalore outlets of hoppipola.
Best Place To Hangout, Have A Great Atmosphere To Party. Rajiv And Sanjay Were The Servers For The Night. Had A Ball At A Saturday Night. Great Experience
Had an amazing experience with friends here. Have been visiting this place since 4 years and it still serves the best quality food and drinks here.
Capt. Rajiv served us well, the staff there served us very well. First we used to visit Amanora outlet but the outlet closed a long back. But the best thing is I found Rajiv here again 😁 kudos.
Great place to spend your evening. The music played by Azzy sets a really pleasant tone to the amazing atmosphere/ambience. Team leader Rajeev took great care of us and is really hospitable. Five stars for the great service and drinks provided here.

Location is misleading. You will not find any restaurant named Mainland China. Search for “Gong” as it’s operated by Gong.
And one of best place for Asian food in Pune.

I have been to this place for a lunch and was welcomed by their staff. It is located on ITI Road and is easy to locate. This place has very good vibes and can refresh your mood regardless of how much tired you are.
They have an array of amazing mocktails, one out of them I can recommend is Lychee Basil Quencher (😍).
Soup - I am kind of Tomato Soup fan but we had Lung Fung Soup (which My taste buds found new and different in taste).
Moving to starters, They have introduced new chinese menu along with their existing menu. They have nice options in veg, we started with Stir fried Water Chestnuts Hunan Style & Stir fried Vegetables with Five Spice.
In Main Course we had Stir fried Vegetables and Cottage cheese with Roasted Garlic And Okra, Corn & Potato in Chilli Black Bean Souce 😊 with Noodles & Rice.
Last but not the least, Desserts - Jaggery Ice Cream with Rosted Almonds (🔥 ) - This dessert took my heart & it is the best dessert I had at this place. Chocolate Cigar with Vanila Ice - Cream is all time my favourite.
This place is amazing and has courteous staff, I recommend this place as must visit place in Pune. You can enjoy food and drinks with your partners, families, friends and off course with your better half.
For when you want to feast on some authentic Chinese cuisine, Mainland China is the ideal place and its a heaven for Chinese food lovers.I was actually dazzled by the cooking techniques to the balancing of the flavors of the dishes served at this place. The comfortable and elegant appeal of the restaurant ,spacious and comfortable seating arrangements to the impressive interiors and not to forget the delicious Chines spread , this place has everything sorted!

Mainland China has always been a go-to-place for a lot of food lovers, when it comes to trying authentic Chinese cuisine. There are absolutely no doubts the quality of cuisine this franchise offers. Recently I tried there Aundh outlet for a lunch with a couple of friends.
We started off with a soup called Lung Fung soup. It was a okayish. Then we ordered some appetizers . First was Stir Fried Water Chestnuts Hunan Style. They were really good, especially with this preparation of Hunan Style. This wasn't the first time when I had these Chestnuts though. Then I went with Pan Fried Barbecued Fish. It turned out a great dish to have. The soft, tender & juicy chunks were absolutely delightful. Then we had the Pickled Coriander chicken. With some of the authentic spices blended in, this dish tasted really well.
Whilst having the appetizers, we gave it try to the Dimsums & ordered Pan fried Japanese Mushroom & Chicken dumplings. They tasted good.
In the mains, we first tried Cantonese Soy steamed fish. It offered a slight mild taste, but that's the way it should be, as I learnt. Double Spicy Chengdu Chicken was next up & it was amazing, with a blend of good sauces & veggies in it. We finished the main course with the Singapore style Fried Noodles with Bean Sprouts.
In desserts, we went with the Chocolate Cigars/rolls with Vanilla ice-cream. It was super amazing. I had them before at their other outlet. This outlet maintained the same taste. I would recommend them. We had some Mango Pudding too. They were not on the expected lines. I believed, it must have been a bad day for this particular dessert. Otherwise, usually, they do provide the pudding in amazing quality.
Service here has always been at top notch. The staff is really courteous & helpful. Mainland China is the authentic Chinese Cuisine place of you're looking for any nearby Aundh.

One can fall short of hunger but not TASTE!!!
Had been there for lunch and it was definitely not disappointing.....
A very authentic place to try Chinese food..... amazing flavours and all the dishes ordered were unique in themselves...
Started with mocktails-
The lychee and basil quencher was very chill...
The orange piroskha was very mild and had good orange flavour with freshness of mint!!
The watermelon and Cilantro crush will awaken you and all the drinks were very refreshing
Dimsums-Pan fried Japanese mushroom and chicken dimsums were very mild to taste and mouthwatering!!!
Appetizer-
Pan fried barbeque fish is a must have!!!very soft and juicy...
Pickled coriander was well marinated and little spicy with infused flavours of authentic spices......
Malaysian curried prawns very a little crispy from outside and yummy from inside ...
Main course-
Okra corn and potato in black bean souce seemed as healthy as tasty
Cantonese soy steamed fish was very mild to taste but with good flavours!!!!!❤️❤️
Double spicy Chengdu chicken was full of mouthwatering sauces and veggies and perfectly cooked.✌️
Lotus leaf wrapped rice gives aroma you cannot resist and so is the Singapore style fried noodles!!!!!
Desert-
Must must have chocolate cigars with vanilla ice cream 😋...
You can also try mango pudding which was a little on the tangy side but can give it a try if you are a mango lover!!
Service-5/5
Food-4.5/5
Staff-5/5
Ambience-3.5/5
Overall a definitely must visit place!

Mainland China is one of those classic places that never disappoints. Consistently great food and amazing service with a beautiful classy ambiance. For the Chinese New Year they have specially curated a new menu and I sampled some of the dishes recently. I have to say, it was delicious and I had such a great experience. The festival lasts till 9th of Feb and this one is definitely worth trying.
Pan Fried Japanese Dumplings - These wonderful, slightly crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. I preferred the vegetarian Mushroom ones more than the Chicken ones, as they had a lot more flavour.
Appetizers - Veg - Stir Fried Water Chestnuts Hunan Style were just crunchy and amazing. The Matchstick Potatoes (fries) were super thin and crispy loaded with flavour - garlic, spring onions, chillies and topped with Truffle Oil! So good!
Non-Veg - 5 Spice Chicken was classic comfort food! Juicy chicken tossed in an uber satisfying sauce with wonderful smokiness from the dried red chillies. The Lemongrass Fish was really delicious, with loads of lemongrass, ginger and Thai basil. The Malaysian Curried Prawns too were just fantastic, with lovely garlic and turmeric flavours.
MAINS - Seemingly simple but just soul satisfying curries served with Celery and Chinese Cabbage Fried Rice as well as absolutely lip smacking and smokey Singapore Style Fried Noodles with Scallions.
The Sichuan Steamed Fish with Corriander was so good! Fresh juicy fish in a sauce just bombarding your senses with spicy sichuan pepper. Our mouths were left tingling for so long after we had this. Could be overpowering for some.
I think my favourite were the Stir Fried Harricot Beans with Chillies and Sesame. The beans were so crunchy and fresh while the beautiful smokiness and mild spice from the dried chillies was addictive. So deceivingly delicious. The Fortune Clay Pot Vegetables too were really simple but crunchy, juicy and tasty.
The Chicken with Celery and Wine was really mild and creamy, but with an amazing tartness from the wine. really different and simple dish. Some may find it bland.
DESSERT - Mango Pudding, Coconut Dumplings with Honey Butter Sauce and Hot Chocolate Rolls with Vanilla Ice Cream were really great.
The Chocolate Dome with Hot Chocolate Sauce was phenomenal. The dome melting under the hot sauce and the pop corn, brownies, nutty crunchy chocolate bars and vanilla ice cream was just an incredible combination.

Mainland China food chain is one of the restaurants which serves near to authentic Chinese food and very rarely disappoints you with the taste. Currently they have introduced a list of new dishes to celebrate the Chinese New Year which was on 25th January. We tried a few of these dishes accompanied by a number of mocktails and they were delicious
🍹Mocktails🍹
We ordered Ginger and Pineapple Frappe, Forbidden Punch, Orangepiroksha, Virgin Pina Colada, Watermelon and Cilantro Crush and Virgin blue lagoon. I liked blue lagoon and Forbidden Punch the best. Especially the cranberry and Pineapple juice with hazelnut cream tasted bomb❤️
🍡Appetizers🍢
🌰Stir Fried Water Chestnut Hunan Style - They served a Chinese Water Chestnut starter which I had for the first time. The crispness of the chestnuts was intact inspite of being stir fried along with onion and capsicum. The Hunan sauce added the right amount of ginger and garlic flavour to this starter. Their presentation was also decent. A must try dish atleast for vegetarians ❤️
🥔Matchstick Potatoes with Truffle Oil - This had potatoes uniformly cut in the shape of matchsticks and tossed in truffle oil. The ginger, garlic, chilli powder made this simple dish palatable. Children and elder both will love this.
🍄Pan Fried Japanese Mushroom Dumplings - The stuffing of these dumplings was really good and Mushroom lovers will definitely love it. The after taste was just lingering in the mouth for a long time and they could have served some dip with it. But if you ask them for shezwan sauce they will provide you with the most authentic chutney. Also the covering was a bit thick.
🥘Main Course 🍲
Fortune Clay Pot Vegetables - This too I had for the first time and it was good. They serve raw vegetables in a liquid sauce made generally from the water that the vegetables leave when cooked with water and other condiments. They used vegetables like lotus stem, broccoli, potato in it. I had Celery and Chinese cabbage fried rice with it and the combination tasted delicious. Their noodles are equally scrumptious 😍
🍮Desserts🍧
Hot chocolate rolls with vanilla ice cream was amazing. The combination of chocolate with vanilla as usual tasted great. The rolls with uniform chocolate filling were small and adorable. Coconut caramel custard was okay, the taste of egg was overpowering.
Chocolate dome with warm chocolate sauce was the BEST ❤️ It consisted of caramel popcorn, brownie pieces, vanilla icecream, choco chips and fried noodles, all inside a chocolate dome which melted when they put hot chocolate sauce over it. Mango pudding was decent. Steam coconut dumpling with honey butter sauce was one of the unique desserts and modak lovers should try this 😛
Mainland China offers authentic Chinese cuisines and dishes. The ambiance of this place is pretty awesome and the food quality is nice. Hotel staff is courteous and gracious.
One nice thing about this place is that you get a tablet-based menu which makes it easy to select your order. You can view pics of the food as you go through it which helps a lot.
We ordered a Tom Yum Soup (Crabs), Steamed Chicken In Smoked Chilli Sauce (Regular) and a Chilli Garlic Noodles. Its taste was delicious.
They include service charge as well which they should avoid as GST is also applicable to the food. It offers 1 + 1 on food under the Zomato gold offer.

Mainland China is a big chain of restaurants which specializes in authentic Chinese Cuisine.
Recently I was at their Baner branch for 'Chinese New Year' food festival and I had a pretty good experience.
The place is quite spacious with a neat and classy ambiance.
Coming to the food, we tried some of the dishes which are part of 'Chinese New Year Food Menu'.
1. Pan fried Japanese Mushroom Dumplings (Rs. 375) : These mushroom dumplings were really good with delicious mushroom filling. As it was pan fried, it had a nice, crispy outer covering.
2. Stir Fried Water Chestnut Hunan Style (Rs. 475) : Chestnuts were so crispy and juicy and they were tossed in spicy hunan sauce along with capsicum and onions.
3. Matchsticks Potatoes with Truffle Oil (Rs. 425) : The potatoes were fried absolutely crispy and tossed with some celery and truffle oil.
4. Fortune Claypot Vegetables (Rs. 530) : In a mild soy based curry, veggies like lotus stem, water chestnut, broccoli were cooked.
5. Stir Fried Haricot Beans with Chillies (Rs. 480) : This one was really good. Beans had a very nice crunch to it and were tossed with dry red chillies.
Along with the gravies we had, Celery and Chinese Cabbage Fried Rice (Rs. 445) and Singapore Style Fried Noddles with Scallions (Rs. 480). Both were good in taste.
In desserts we had, Hot Chocolate Rolls with Vanilla Ice cream, Chocolate Dome with Warm Chocolate Sauce, Mango pudding, Steam Coconut Dumpling with Honey Butter Sauce and all of these were pretty delicious.
Special mention to chocolate dome which had brownie, popcorn, Icecream under it.
