If you think you don’t have any dhaba types restaurant in bandra then guys you must visit this place! ambience is top notch and will make you feel as if you are in a dhaba itself!.You can check ambience in photos just amazing and also the seats are like dhaba not the ones which are in cafe! Just a perfect place to chill and have punjabi food and also other variants as well, it has both veg and non veg!.What all I ordered?1) Amritsari Kulcha - Ohh damn the size of the kulcha was big enough that it can fill your tummy on its own! It was served with Dal Makhni which was very tasty and their laccha onion which just enhance the taste in itself!You must try this because of taste and quantity plus for actual dhaba feels you will definitely enjoy this..2) Paneer Seekh kebab - It was also very tasty 8-10 pieces of paneer seekh kebab with chutney and onion! Just eat it when it is served hot you will just love this alot! Paneer is healthy as well and this dish is completely tasty and will definitely satisfy your taste buds!.3) Rajma Chawal - They have this rajma chawal and at first I thought I can complete this easily but when it was served I was like oh my god, quantity was so much that we have to take it parcel afterwards! Rajma were properly cooked and also tasted yummy, quality of rice matters alot and it was perfect I will say perfect because rice was cooked good and when I mixed rajma in it, oh just yummy, giving me cravings right now as well. It was served with papad and curd!.4) chaas and lassi - I bet you won’t be able to finish their thick and yummy meethi lassi in one go, damn the quantity of lassi was so good that we were two people still couldn’t finish it all! Creamy and sweet lassi at a dhaba is what you will feel when you will have their lassi!Chaas was also so good giving slight spicy flavour in it! just perfect the way I want and you expect from a dhaba!.So guys what you waiting for, visit this dhaba and enjoy your meals!

Been here few days ago firstly, food quality is above average. I give it two stars less, mainly due to varieties of food, even a simple dish like soup they dont have. One thing that disappointed me the most is the 10% service charge they add along the 5% GST, why not include in their already high menu price, their menu items are not reasonable either, 400-500+ per main dish, the good positive side I see is the location and good ambiance.

As i visited this place in afternoon, the interior is very nice the ambiance is also very good but the quality of food and the price for it is not worth it.Over priced food.I felt like i ate paneer of same road side and the price of paneer was 450+ which was supposed to be maximum of 250Rs.Rates should be minimised because this rate list is not worth it for the current situation in the restaurant.

Authentic Punjabi cuisine.Scrumptious food. Finger-Licking-Good...literally.Go for Chicken Thali...Choose your dishes and make that combo.Don’t miss the Punjab-Di-Lassi.Wish the space was bigger and a little more comfy. But not bad ambience at all given the area available.Staff is dam good. Friendly, courteous.Fab Punjabi music in background.Overall dam good.Sure to come back often.Well done.

Papa Pancho Da Dhaba is located near Gold’s Gym opposite Yes Bank. It is known for its authentic Punjabi Food. It has two kinds of seatings, outdoor and indoor.We ordered Tandoori Chicken for starters. Tandoori Chicken was juicy and cooked to perfection.For main course we were suggested to order Chicken Tariwala and Chicken Bhuna which was accompanied by Dahi, 2 Indian Breads of your choice and Dal Makhani. We did not like Chicken Bhuna as much as we liked Chicken Tariwala.The unique thing of this restaurant was their Lachhedar Paratha, it was not thick like every other Punjabi restaurant. Their version of Lacchedar Paratha is like Tava Roti but with all the round things of the Lachedar Paratha.Overall, we had a fun time with tasty food.

Must try chicken angare. Delicious. The chicken khada masala was very different taste I.e. more desi or rural in feel. The lahori kulcha was just okay. I feel roti would have better with these dishes. The chass (butter milk) was really nice. The menu is full on punjabi like Roti shoti chawal shawal. Good outdoor seating. Indoor seating is limited. Overall limited number of seats so weekends could get crowded. But staff is really nice and you have valet parking too.

Fantastic earthen indian interiors. Love the parathas & veg/non-veg combo offered along with it. Taste is incredible but a bit overpriced for my liking. Friendly staff. Small indoor & outdoor space with few seats on the mezzanine as well. Seating is a little cramped making it uncomfortable.

Before I started writing reviews I had visited Papa Pancho once and came away highly impressed, so it was a no brainer that I had to visit again, and this time for a full fledged review, so here goes. From the plates to the decor to the outfits of the staff, this place gives you a classic dhaba feel, more so if you opt to for the outdoor seating. The appetizers we began our gorging with were Punjabi Aloo Chat, Pahadi Kebab and Punjabi Chicken Tikka, and none of them disappointed, with special honours going to the Aloo Chat. Between the two chicken variants the Pahadi Kebab was the better one. For the mains we ordered Rara Paneer and Bhuna Chicken along with Parathas and Missi Roti. The paneer was extremely well cooked, and so was the chicken, though we wouldve preferred a little more meat in the gravy. The parathas were delicious, while the roti was a bit of a downer, not pleasing the taste buds in any particular way. Finally for desserts we had Gulab Jamun, Rabdi and Lassi. All 3 were excellent, and since I have a soft corner for lassi I was even more impressed with it, taste wise, texture wise, and the quantity is great as well. To sum up then, whether youre vegetarian or non-vegetarian, this is a must visit restaurant, plenty of options, quality and quantity both are excellent. I hope it never changes, this is one of my favourite eateries now.

Decent Punjabi food, typical village type food taste, not the creamy Mughlai type gravies.Ambience is typical Dhaba types, with outdoor seating available as well.Would strongly recommend their Lassi, Paneer Tikka and Dal Makhani.Slightly on the expensive side....

Lunch with friends on a Sunday afternoon at this restaurant was a happy experience in a dhaba- like ambience.The food is authentic Punjabi, very tasty. We had paneer tikka and vegetable kababs as starters. The chole and makki ki roti with sarson ka saag, kadhi with pakoris were delicious.The waiters were helpful and the service brisk.A good place for healthy appetites.

1. It is on a busy street just opposite of gold gym.2. Usually a waiting of 15-20 minutes on weekends.3. Quite a small place but upstairs seems cozy.4. Appreciate- The theme and food of restaurant was authentic. So far the best Punjabi meal Ive had in Mumbai.5. We ordered- Rara paneer, rajma chawal, chole bhatura, chaas.6. Their sabzi like Rara paneer comes with 2 paratha, curd, bowl of dal makhni.7. Cost us around 1500 for everything.Overall a must go place for people who are looking for a meal from Punjab in Mumbai.

Ate here while was in Mumbai for a visit. Location, ambience was perfect. Looking at the space, a great example of good things come in small sizes. The food was very delicious, the phulka roti was just like home made. Portion size was perfect and loved the brass dishes and presentation. I wish the service gets a little quicker, but guess it could have been a busy time/day. I will certainly eat here when back in the town. Cheers!

Used to be one of the best restauranrs for authentic Punjabi food in Bandra. Sadly it has lost its very essence. The masalas used in most dishes seem to be the same. Same base masala in most dishes. The butter chicken tastes like a chicken masala with added salted butter. The biryani taste more like a pulao. A very bad experience.
