What might have started as a humble joint, has now graduated into an over-hyped run-of-the-mill coastal restaurant.
As kids, we used to love eating at this place. And yep, those were the days. The attitude of the staff (incl. the owner) has changed quite a lot with the changing times. The quality (and quantity) of food has gone substantially down. The servings are too meagre even for the average eater.
Yes, the hype still invites a sea of people from all corners of mumbai, but I doubt the repeat value. During weekends, never trust them if they ask you to wait for 15-20 mins.
The ambiance, which has been modified with time, is quite decent for a no-nonsense - eat - quick place, cos thats what you are expected to do. The service is fast as well, maybe just the way it was. But the name that this place has gained over the years is not an excuse for the unfriendly attitude of the staff.
Overall, inflated rates which dont justify the quality (importantly) and quantity, poor customer service has definitely brought down this place to the ranks of just another wannabe coastal joint.
