really late night
the best thing is that its open right upto 4 am and strategically located on the main road opposite lucky's near the bandra west railway station. the food is good. have been here twice and both times it was good. decent, nice young crowd and safe feel. staff is good and prices are reasonable.

Delicious chicken!
Went there once and the smiling face of the owners and the waiters won me over! Quite a surprise, since that is not what I was told about the place!
Anyways, from the outside it looks like a dingy place, from the inside it looks like a dingy place but don't mistake it for a shady food joint that don't give a damn about whether your eating chicken or rat.
A Moroccan ambiance (Yes it does have an ambiance, just like any other place would), the restaurant is divided into two area one with cramped tables, seats and another with cramped sofa-type seating place where you could stretch your legs and relax (I still haven't gotten how to explain this particular part of a restaurant!!).
It offers hookahs and in my view is one of the best places to actually watch the IPL (they have a big LCD screen). Imagine hookah, some nice tender chicken, friends and some good cricket, what better way to spend an evening after work?
Anyways the last time i was there, it was with some vegans! Offcourse, I did have a carnivore for company!
So we got down to ordering some food. First up was a Malai Kofta and Mixed Sabji for the veggies and chicken tandoori for me and my friend. The malai kofta bought back found memories of family gatherings around the family's favourite dish!
The tandoori chicken on the other hands is set to create some found memories for me! The tender breast pieces, were cooked just about enough to make us salivate while eating and order for more after we finished. We also has a chicken Afghani kebab which can give the paneer a run for its softness!!!
Next up was a chicken boneless kadai, which though spicy was still quite nice. At the time we ordered the kadai the quantity seemed fit for 4 people but ah well the endless pits of two people were enough to finish the whole dish with multiple rounds of butter rotis, butter naans, normal rotis and normal naans!! In short we had a feast fit for a king!
All this for a mere 500 bucks was enough to make us want to come here again and again and again!

Rs 130; also ordered the murg kadhai. both were was very good. lastly, also ordered their paneer tikka ajwaini dish - very good in taste. great food all the way.

Mughal Sarai, Bandra, 4am.
Common sense, they say, won’t pay the rent and doesn’t grow on trees. I like Mughal Sarai mainly because it is open till 4.30 AM and keeps serving an authentic ‘Awadhi’ menu, a choice of hookahs, desserts and the like. The tandoori chicken is tender, ethereal, juicy and is available at a time when other cocks are busy waking their masters :o))
They also have a buffet menu which is an amalgamation of buffet, thali and a-la-carte formats. It is basically a combination of a-la-carte dishes which you can call for as many times as you want. They don’t score a ten on ten on the overall upkeep probably because the owner (a very friendly guy) wants to keep it that way.
The name Mugal Sarai comes from a north Indian village which is famous for its food. The glasses used in the restaurant have clear stripes (like we have in all ‘chai’ shops in the north)
You will not meet masterminds who want bottom lines to map-out and display but you will get to fill yourself with naans, rotis and parathas that keep emerging from searing tandoori ovens! (You won’t get to see the oven either but there is a way I describe it)
You won’t hobnob with celebrities and tycoons here but so what - you will get a mix of people who are as funny as them. From ‘bole toh’ to ‘be*t**’, oral flavors are available in different styles.
You won’t get greeted for your inadvertent gestures – but the staff is friendly, always running – I don’t know why they run so much but they aint lackadaisical either. I asked a young boy to explain a mocktail. He did not understand what I asked so he said “Excuse me” and “Mai aapke liye thanda paani lata hu” (I’ll get some cold water for you) and he went up to the captain who attended me later
Not a lot of people will like the timeworn tables and cramped seating, wet floors in the wash and some other noticeable drawbacks but I still like this place. It gives me food when I need it most!!
For those who think it doesn’t deserve 5 stars can keep thinking! They won’t be awake all night to satiate the ones like me. Love you Mugal Sarai….mwaah!!!
