FINAL VERDICT-A MUST IF YOUR IN SOUTH MUMBAI

I just visited Cafe Leopold in Mumbai this week. The waiters were horrible and impolite. I ordered a cold coffee, the waiter brought a glass dripping from all sides and told me to drink it quickly, like he was paying for it. He passed some remarks about my friend as well which weren't so pleasant.

I ordered some Spaghetti bolognaise which had more beef than spaghetti and I had to leave about half of it. Not that anybody would really care but having spent so much for it, I would've expected it to be something close to Spaghetti.

It may be a nice place to meet fellow travelers but the service is horrible. I wouldn't recommend this to anybody. Maybe for a few drinks but then again, with nasty, unpleasant waiters, it's definitely a mood killer.

This must've been a nicer place a few years ago but from what I've experienced, it definitely shouldn't be one of the recommended restaurants to visit.

Great draught beer - perfect in the hot afternoons - served with free cheeselings / peanuts too! They have a huge menu with everything from traditional Indian to Chinese and what-not! They also serve all varieties of fruit juices for the teetotallers.

I personally like the Chicken 3-in-one which is a huge plate with a plate of chicken-rice, a plate of chicken-noodles and 2 chicken-wings in honey-roasted sauce - its enough food for three moderate eaters OR two very-hungry-persons :) The Chicken Tikka is a good bet too. So are all the soups that you wouldnt mind sipping on in the evenings before a meal.

Hmmmm - well - this has been one of my favorite hangouts since the mid 90s - and I'd always eat here after a nite out at the movies. A typical dinner-for-two with beer costs between Rs.300 to Rs.500 (About €8 / $10). If you want to try their cocktails, you could also go upstairs where they have a cocktail bar - as well as the normal menu from downstairs.

Trivia: It is featured in the Duran Duran video 'Hungry like the Wolf'
