Another of the romantic dinner spots in town. Located off the busy streets and away into a quite zone outside and inside the restaurant. I prefer to sit outside for the very rare places in Mumbai wherein restaurants have such a seating placement.
The fondue are very popular at this place and so are the wide range of deserts. I tried the Egyptian Salad and the Garlic Fondue, both were extremely well prepared.
One of the mocktails named - 'Mahableshwar Strawberry' was horrible and we almost asked the server to replace it. This falls in the mid price range and a meal for 2 excluding drinks would cost roughly about Rs. 1200

I have a very mixed opinion of Moshe's...
When it started out of course it was THE place to be for dinner, but now - well, it's changed.
The positive is that the food is great, regardless of what people say - the food is awesome and thats what you're there for. The desserts are divine and must-haves there.
However, service - way below average. Not only is it slow but waiters like to keep watching IPL on the plasma in the back.
Air conditioning - weak, making it unpleasant if you get a table away from the ONE a/c catering to the main area.
Waiters - hardly ever in uniform but know the menu (well, some of them).
Must haves are the fondue and blueberry cheesecake.
Great place for breakfast if you wake up early enough - love those waffles.
Give it a try - focus on the food though.

Practically visit moshes almost every weekend. They serve great soups n love their breads, excellent gooey chocolate cake as well. Can't ask 4 better food - almost divine.

Moshe's at the best of times is passable but last evening it was down right bad.
Ambience : Minimalism is a poor excuse to spend nothing on decor or interiors or perhaps in this case exteriors. Small tables, tacky chairs, poor lighting and an untidy, dishevelled, appearance.
With free mosquitos bombarding the place, you can be sure to take back some with you in the car to continue your biting experience ( we did!)
Experience : Well after 8 p.m., the three of us ladies went into Moshe's. We clambered up the steps and found it better to dine al fresco. Turning around, a friend almost tripped and fell thanks to the mood lighting which translates as poor visibility.
The waiters took an age to come and didn't advise us correctly on the menu. We ordered a wine for starters ( perhaps the best thing we did since it wasn't made by Moshe's) and a cheese fondu. Hours after the wine, came the fondu with one glass of chopped bread . We dipped the bread into a very salty fondu. Halfway through, another glass of bread was put in front of us. We wondered why because by this time the fondu sauce was already over! We asked for plain hummus and lavash and were told that this was not exactly their combination but they allowed us this freedom if we bought a whole packet of lavash. I have noticed from my previous experience at Moshe's when it was at the Bombay Gym, they are particularly obdurate and have the most ridiculous comibinations which they are reluctant to modify until you agree to pay more.
We went on to the main courses which were suggested by the waiter - a Penne with some red sauce and Spanish Vegetables which was some undercooked yet un crunchy vegetables served in almond sauce and served with rice.
While the Penne was distinctly undistinguished, the Spanish Vegetables is totally avoidable.
Food : Overpriced and tasteless. On the grounds of having fusion food or whatever - he passes of rubbish as good food and gets away with it!
Service : Slow and bordering on indifferent. A table next to our's asked for mosquito coils and it took a lot of convincing for the waiter to oblige.
Verdict : Moshe's should be avoided especially in the night when you cannot see what you are eating and even more dangerous - you cannot see what you have been billed for.
P.s. We went to Moshe's at Cuffe Parade only because we didn't want to spend hours in the traffic and wanted to actually meet rather than eat.But at Rs.700 per head it was an expensive meeting.
