My experience has been great so far.The Manager Samir will offer exceptional service and the place operates at limited capacity with social distancing and sanitisation measures.They are usually booked so I suggest to book at least 2-3 days before.

Food was not at all worth 5 star quality. Ordered dhal chawal for my 16 month old and the veggies were less than half cooked. Also, pulka was so thick and end of them were not even cooked.Paneer was very hard and also lassi tasted as though sugar was mixed in curd. I am sure I make a better one at home. Waste of time and money.

Nice vibe, food is great. Menu is good, good varieties. Rhe good thing with Indian food is that you have lots of veggie options.

Beautiful restaurant- try the paneer kothwala which is stuffed with cheese, kulcha and delicious butter garlic nan that’s slathered in butter along with butter chicken and pulao. Overall a nice lunch. 3 pax total without alcohol ₹6400

After a long pandemic when Diwali knocked at the door it was time to choose a special restaurant and thus choose Masala Bay at Taj Lands endAs you enter Taj you can either use a valet but you will be charged for sanitising the car or park on your own which is free of cost.The restaurant is located at L1 which is both accessible by an elevator as well as stairs.We were greeted warmly and escorted to a seat immediately. The menu card can be accessed through a QR Code which can be scanned through your mobile phone. As you order you will be served a complimentary plate of wafers with a tomato chutney. The chutney is like the one made in Bengali home made in mustard oil and goes really well with the wafersTo start with we ordered Nimona Tikka. This is a green peas patty which was served with onion and green chutney. It would have really gone well with a tamarind based sauce which I asked for but was not available and I was suggested to make do with the tomato chutney. Unfortunately I needed something tangy not sweet. I hope the message is passed on to the chefIn the non veg starter we also added Aatish e Chaap which was excellently made and I enjoyed it thoroughly.In the main course we ordered Subz Lazeez Handi which we asked to make it Mild spicy but I think you can try the spicy version as the gravy has cashew. To eat this we ordered Bah Khummach a bread which is made sprinkled with fennel & poppy seeds. It complimented the gravy well.Last but not the least we ended with Ras malai. It was good but not a speciality or something unique to remember. Thus maybe you can skip the dessert hereNevertheless it was a Diwali evening well spent with the special care on hygiene by Taj

First things first, this place is at Taj Lands End, Bandra Bandstand, home of tinseltown bollywood, in Mumbai. The best thing about this restaurant is the interactive theatre kitchen. You need to visit this place to experience it. You can opt for a private dining room during the time of booking. The is not a 24 hour restaurant, operates only during the afternoon and evening. Food is mostly north Indian plus seafood. The lounge is well equipped with good alcohol. As a bonus, if you are coming here for the first time and want to try out multiple dishes at once, order the thali.

Masala Bay (Taj Lands End) for the best dining experience. The ambiance is calm and peaceful. The food is amazingly delicious but can be better as it is kept to the international standards hence the spicy touch may be missing. Worth a visit - we rate them 8/10 what do you think?Price for 2: Rs 2500 approx.

Had a great evening. Ambience is comfortable, lighting is just enough. Food is absolutely delicious. Went for the pre set menu- tasting menu - it was a gastronomic delight. Different varieties of various INDIAN cuisines so innovatively displayed. Enjoyed. The waiters could have been a little more informative and clear about their speech.

Probably the best Biryani and kebabs Ive had in a very long time. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking to have some authentic India cuisine. Right from the appetizers to the dessert, the meal is outstanding. The service provided was excellent and couldnt ask for anything better! Will definitely be back the next time Im in Mumbai. I was here for lunch. The buffet spread was vast and as varied with options. The salad bar had several veg and non-veg options. Also loved the dessert spread, you always had something more to get tempted by, difficult to stick to a diet plan in here.

If you ask me about the food, i will give it 5 stars. Plenty of options. Food was very tasty (pricey as well). I will cut 1 star because of the service. Staff looked exhausted, no smile on their face. Overall, it was a good experience. Will visit again if i get a chance.

Review №51

One of the most pathetic service experiences. That too in a taj hotel.Saturday afternoon lunch Place practically empty. Nobody even bothers to come near the table. It’s almost as if people come to the restaurant come for enjoying the Airconditioners.After several efforts manage to get the attention of the serving staff. Orders taken reluctantly. Orders served even more reluctantly.No one bothered about what else we wanted to order.Two hours for a simple drinks starters and main course.Since one doesn’t have too much time to waste forego dessert pay up and walk.Haven’t seen such a dismal indifference to customers in a fancy restaurantGuess this place is only for people who have nothing else to do but to wait for the benign attention of the staff.

In first week of August i was staying at Taj Landsend and I happened to dine at our favourite Indian restaurant Masala Bay in the hotel and the food served there was delicious and the service given by Kunwar and his team was remarkable. My dad’s favourite dish is available only here and that called Gucchi - It’s a type of rare mushroom grown in North India in places like Jammu, Himachal etc. It’s rarely found and Masala Bay has got it back on the menu after few years. Kunwar was so kind to make Gucchi available for us for breakfast too. Satvik at Vista made it available for us. Also a big thank you to Chef Atanu and Chef Sadab for their delicious cuisine. Our favourite desert is the Paan ice cream served in Masala Bay. That’s the highlight at the end of the meal. I thank the entire staff of Masala Bay for their excellent service.

Worst service in the world.Cold food served.Forgot to get main dish.Biryani served.15 mins later they got raita for the biryani.Worst service by entire taj team.Also if your server is Hitender he’s a complete jackass.I think taj hired a car washer and told him to serve food.Taj can’t get any worse than this.

Delicious food, including Jain food. The palak kofta ,Dal Makhani , the Ajwain Paratha were absolutely fabulous. The Sufi singer Kavita Seth says the Baingan ka Bharta was too good.Excellent service, the staff deserves a pat on the back. Superb, soft ambience.Imbalance in portions is why I am unable to give it a 5 star. The stewards need to guide the diners on the portion size of each curry.Maybe a 4.75 star would be more appropriate :-)

An absolutely great restaurant!We ordered:Jaitoon Mahi TikkaSunday Mutton CurryMultigrain RotiDahiAwadhi Gosht Dum BiryaniPaan IcecreamThe food was awesome : very flavourful, with the right proportion of spices and very finger-licking. The presentation too was excellent, especially the mutton curry, which was served in a small pressure cooker!The ambience is also very good. My husband and I were immensely pleased with the staff. The Restaurant Manager Samir Phadnis is one of the best Managers we have met at any of the Taj Hotels. He is very soft-spoken, extremely courteous and we could tell that he has been with the Taj for a long time. We would also like to mention the Asst Restaurant Manager Hrushikesh Nakhawa, who is very conversant with the menu and he too is very polite, courteous and friendly. Steward Lalit is also very efficient, pleasant and knows the menu well.Overall it was a great lunching experience and we will surely return again. For a very tasty Indian meal and great service, we certainly recommend Masala Bay.

Masala bay is currently running Awadhi food festival from 11 august to 3 september 2017..Interesting Menu of this festival is designed by Chef Sadab Qureshi. A person who eats,sleeps and breathes only food.These dishes come straight from heart and soul of Lucknow.Striking part of this food festival is everything made here is absolutely authentic .No fusion food at masala bay which is being served at a lot of restaurants these days in mumbai.Ingredients,spices,flavour,texture .Everything is precise and perfect.Coming to the varierty of dishes(vegetarian options)i tried here from awadhi food festival menu -MocktailsThande khus ka sharbat-khus flavour mocktailLitchi pudina-Litchi flavour mocktail.I liked Litchi mocktail.Khus was littly spicy due to mirchi flavour in itGhar ka shorba -A soothing homely soup.Rich in proteins and very healthy soup with veggies and lentil broth to start with.Veg startersNasboo paneer tikka- paneer chunk with khoya,cheese stuffing .This is cooked in tandoor..Delicious and highly recommendedChowk ki shammi kebab- Veggie patty flavouring with some garam masala and fried..This is a very popular dish of lucknow chowkTandoori shabnam-stuff mushroom cooked in clay oven.ingredients used in this dish are highlight of this starter.dont miss out on trying thisSubz tarkash ke seekh-seasonal veggies seekh kebab with toppings of cheese .YummyHajrajgunj ke shaam ki chaat- chaat of spinach + brinjal ..mumbai chaat lovers do try this hajratgunj speciality chaatBadaami tandoori aloo - stuff potato cooked in tandoor..Has a badaami nutty flavourVeg main coursePhali ki subzi - A subzi preparation of cluster beans..Try having this subzi by itself.Yes its dry preparation but will give you taste and feel the richness of awadhi dishPaneer pasanda- Stuff paneer cooked in a super rich aromatic gravyAloo bukhara kofta salaan- cottage cheese dumpling stuffing cooked in Awadhi gravy..chef qureshi speciality i must sayAatish e aloo- baby potato cooked with red chilli and crush coriander..its a dry subziKaali daal- black urad daal cooked on tandoor with butter on top of it..This is for all daal lovers..A striking feature of all awadhi main course are the ingredients used in preparation and none of these were spicy which you will find in a lot of punjabi preparations.RiceAloo mutter ki tahiri -green peas pulao preperation .Rich basmati used in preparationRotiyan shahi dawatWarqui paratha -layered paratha lovely to have with the main course veggies.It can be had with kebab tooMasala naan -green chili,coriander,seeds used on naan.Naan is grilled on hot bbqKhameeri roti -roti made by using yeast.very soft.very classyBakarkhani -A thick flat bread with hard crust and crispy though.DessertsShahi tukda -Bread pudding soaked in hot milk with safrron and cardamom topping .I loved itGulkand ki phirni-star dessert of masala bay for me .Some rose sryup and gulkand added enhanced the flavour.Malai jalebi- Simply delicious.try it out .Lasoon ki kheer -kheer with full of nutrient,taste and lasoon added..It has a wow factorGuys if you wish to experience flavours of royal kitchen of awadh then masala bay is the place to guy.Dont miss it.11 august to 3 september save the dateEnjoySaumil shah
