I am from the UK and have been to India 4 times in the past 8 months. I have always been to Koyla every night I was in Mumbai.
I love shisha and the service and the quality of the shisha at Koyla is out of this world. Their setting is amazing. The service I recieved here was absolutely 5 star.
On returning to the UK, I have opened up my own shisha cafe, named Koyla, but nowhere as nice as this one.
If you come to Mumbai, you definitely need to come to Koyla and experience their shisha and food. Their chicken tikka was absolutely gorgeous!!

Just imagine music, cozy place and friends around and sitting on a building terrace having amazing good food and hookah. Thats how I would describe Koyla's. A nice place.

The food here is just above average and the service is a bit amateurish. Waiters are kind, but probably not experienced like you might expect a wait staff to be. The food is your traditional mughlai/north-western frontier fare, meaning very rich and heavy! The mushroom tikka was a great starter I must say - the dal makhani was as expected and the dum aaloo was just way too oily/rich/heavy for my taste.
The ambiance is what is special here - on the rooftop of the seedy Gulf Hotel, tables are set under canopies of clay - some of the larger tables have entire benches made out of the white mediterranean clay, which gives it more of a tropical look. I WISH this place served drinks, but unfortunately, all they have to offer are hookahs. Yech!
