Going South
Pop Tate's , Vikhroli (W) | 5 reviews
Pop Tate's was definitely a nice place for youth and a good eat-out place for the IITians nearby, but sadly it is going down.
First the Positives (+)
+ Good ambiance, but they could cut down on the noise.
+ Live music provided by a young guy from St. Andrews college, sings well .. strums the guitar even better. And he won't stop at one song.
+ Good food (till yesterday), good suggestion by some of the stewards.
+ Nice outer seating area, but gets a little dusty cos of the roadway alongside
Now the brickbats (-)

Papa Doesn't Johns
Papa John's , Powai | 17 reviews
Impudent stewards | Unconcerned Manager | More blah and less chicken on my pizza | Typically American ambiences - not my kinds | Prefer the Subway next to it - though am a very Pizza person.
Take me word, or just do it yourself - the experience is surely going to be horrid.
The garlic sauce is the life-saver, but then I aint screwing up my dinner for the want of a small bowlful of garlic sauce.
Probably I'd just flick of their recipe for the garlic sauce and suggest the same to some other courteous places around.
Pricing is expensive for it being JUST... read more -

Passable Fare
Nayak's Khyber , Andheri (E) | 5 reviews
Not the best of place to eat. Not VFM at all, the menu rates are high as compared to the fare they dish out, because probably it is the only tandoor eating place around.
No ambience at all, as it is an semi open eating place - with a dispensary and a chemist on it's sides.
Not specific items on the menu which can be rated. A meal for two costs your around 300-350 bucks. -
RESPONSE FROM MANAGEMENT
Replied by: rapidsnail, on Sep 29, 2009
Hello Mr. Nayak,
By VFM, I'd mean that the quantities (along with the quality) differs a lot at different instances. A chicken red jeera would not taste the same as it would each time (I have had that experience).
The quantity of tandoor items has been found to vary at different instances. This maybe the case with home delivery, maybe (Cos I have majorly been availing only for home delivery). So not sure about the in-house eating experience.
Am glad to know that you are looking out for a bigger place. Best of luck with that. Will surely wait for the inivte. ;)RESPONSE FROM MANAGEMENTReplied by: vivek nayak, owner, on Sep 29, 2009
Thanks for your reply,appreciate the honest.id like to tell u Mr.snail that all the above mentioned observations are 100% true,its been my constant effort to improve the food taste,its been roughly 3 months since i have taken over,i knw the reproductivity has been an major issue and i have been wanting to hire good chefs,but the space constraints and the egos of chef at times come at play,we do handle a lotta volume all through the week esp on fri-sat-sun but im trying my best and vouch to work and resolve this issue at the earliest!
also the on the issue of pricing,i have tasted the quality... read moreReplied by: rapidsnail, on Sep 29, 2009
Thanks Mr. Nayak. Glad to know that you are taking efforts to tighten those shoelaces, am sure you'd do good. Best of Luck with that.
With this reply of yours, am sure my chicken red jeera would taste the same each time :)
P.S.: Places outside of garbage bins dish out crap, I wouldnt even spend time writing about such places. ;)RESPONSE FROM MANAGEMENTReplied by: vivek nayak, owner, on Sep 29, 2009

Hey Vivek,
Sorry to say, but the food scored 2/5 this time onwards. All home deliveries
Order 1: Chicken Hakka Noodles and Chicken Manchurian
Chicken in Chi. Manchurian was hard and very chewy, not at all a good experience. Hakka noodles was ok though.
Order 2: Chicken Red Jeera
On the call, I mentioned about the chicken being hard in the last order and this Chi. Red Jeera was awesome. Properly made and the chicken was fresh. Total paisa vasool.
Order 3 : Chicken Chilly Garlic rice and Chicken Pepper (Semi Dry)
There was nothing Chilli-sh or Garlic-ish... read more

Young Noisy Place
Jughead's Pop Tate's , Powai | 8 reviews
Jughead’s Pop Tate’s – the identity crisis certainly doesn’t come in way or you and your food out here. The place is young and noisy. The walls are laced with plasma screen which blare out MTV or Channel V most of the time. The graphics on the tables, walls, and menu are Archie-ish (I like reading off everything each time I go in there) and the crowd is definitely young. Most of the students from IIT hang out over here after lectures. But the music, at times, makes it a little difficult to have a decent conversation without straining your lungs.
A good place for cheap booze (one on... read more -

Nothing Great about Abhishek
Abhishek , Erandwane | 8 reviews
Had been there with a couple of friends. First restaurant I have been in Pune.
The soups were good. The Chicken Pahadi Kebab and the Paneer Banjara Kebab looked as well tasted the same (except for the Paneer and the Chicken part). Paneer was half cooked and the chicken kebabs seemed like bhajiyas.
Didn't dare to order the main course.
Hot and Sour Chicken soup
Tomato Soup
Paneer Banjara Kebab
Chicken Pahadi Kebeb
Total Bill = 317 rupees. Totally not worth it. But still ended having a nice time. Service is courteous though. :-) -
