This place is one of the best if you crave for seafood. The staff there is very courteous and offer really good suggestions. About the food...... amaaaazing... Animal prawns, salmon with jalapeno, calamari - must haves... price is on the higher side.. but given the quantity and the quality of the food, it's totally worth it.. great ambience. You need a reservation to get a table here , and make sure you do it well in advance. This place is packed even on weekdays.
This place is one of the best. The staff there is very courteous and offer really good suggestions. Food is amaaaazing. The quantity and the quality of the food is best. Super ambience. Even on Saturday eve they accomodated us without reservation; however it is recommended.
Bastian is a classy place in bandra with a very different ambience that serves mouth watering food and desserts..Best part of this restaurant is that it has quite a few vegan and gluten-free options..
I had heard a lot about the seafood at this place so had visited it a few months ago with family.. the menu was unique and tasty..
Things we ate:
1) fish and chips - crispy batter fried fish fresh as it could be with crispy fries..
2) lobster thermedor - i do not eat lobster so i didn't want to comment on it, but my parents totally enjoyed it.. when i asked how the dish was their exact words were "divine"..
3) Smores cheesecake - Had heard a lot about the smores cheesecake so thought of giving it a try.. crunchy Graham crackers, melted chocolate, dark chocolate ganache, liquid cheesecake and gooey marshmallows.. by far one of the best cheesecakes I've had!
The flavours of the food were very tempting and the cheesecake very delicious.. however the place is a little too heavy on the pocket..

Can't stress enough on how much I loved this place! Bastian is a very famous and top notch restaurant located in Bandra. The ambiance is joyous and posh with amazingly tasty food.

3. Hazelnut Crunch ✅
4. Basque Burnt ✅
Thank you Bastian and their Head Chef Amol for bringing a smile and sweetening our tooth with such amazing delicacies.
Great food and atmosphere! The best seafood ever eaten.Creative dishes and drinks were decent.Great for gathering or just having a drink and a small bite with a friend!
Went here as a family a few months ago. The food is unique and delicious. The menu also changes a few items every month which is great because theres always something new to try out. My family had many non-veg options and I was more than happy with the vegan options available. The desserts also have vegan options, I've had the vegan cheesecake bowl which was really good.
Absolutely loved the ambience and off course the food
Fish n Chips were really good.

This place has got the vibe. The food there is just excillent. You can never go wrong with what you order there.
The service is so quick that i was shocked at the turn around time, but overall it was an amazing experience
The veg thermidore and lamb ghee roast were amazing. In pic there's the red hot chicken waffle, a bit of a hit or miss.
Good food with good ambience..Value for money..
Great service by all the staff..
Overall a good experience.

A cute restaurant with fresh food and excellent Bowls.
Layout is simple. We have to climb a flight of stairs and an unassuming door opens up to this cute little restaurant.
Service is excellent and the staff are super friendly and prompt.
Food is fresh they have some fantastic salads and their bowls can easily be shared by two people.
Their take on a watermelon salad, is quite a large portion with lots of lettuce and caramelised walnuts and melons. In starters I ordered the tofu with peanut sauce and Soya dressing. It is quite a unique combination and tastes fantastic. I had also ordered the truffle fries which is quite a large portion and easily shareable between four people.
I also ordered the vegan bowl and the chocolate desert which were both mouth watering.
A bit of history : This tiny little joint is the original bastian after which Shilpa Shetty opened the second branch in Worli Mumbai with a lavish layout.
Overall : it is a good restaurant to go to for lunch in bandra, but endure pre-booking as its always jam packed.
Bastian came recommended by a native 'foodie' friend of ours. Tucked away in the hustle and bustle of linking road, Bastian has a small entrance that's easy to miss. We were the first to walk in at 7pm, however, the restaurant was jam packed by 7:20pm with mostly locals. Service was courteous, food arrived on time and the ambiance was very relaxing. Elaborate menu. everything we tried was extremely tasty and cooked to perfection. We ate way more than normal. Mid-high range prices. Overall, a very pleasant experience. The locals would call it 'yum'. Highly recommended.
Bastian restaurant in Bandra is great! The food is super tasty, and the service is excellent. You need to book ahead because it's quite popular. Prices are a bit high, but it's worth it for the yummy food and top-notch service. Overall, a fantastic place to enjoy a good meal.
Was extremely excited to dine at Bastian as I had heard a lot about this place thru social media. My friend and I were going to the Bandra restaurant for lunch just a day before Christmas so weren't sure if we would be able to get a table so we called before reaching the place. The staff told us they weren't taking reservations but assured us that they will seat us at the bar & will try to get us a table in 15-20mins; they were very courteous on the phone.
When we got there, we were asked to wait for 15mins for a table or get started at the bar. We opted to wait in the little balcony area for 15mins while browsing the menu. The Bandra location was a bit disappointing in terms of ambience; perhaps I had huge expectations as this was a Bollywood favorite spot.
We then got seated and the service was quick. Our food and drinks were served quickly. The drinks were extremely potent and fantastic. We absolutely loved the food here especially the Animal Prawn appetizer! The dessert was bang on!
Irrespective of the ambience at this location, the food here is AMAZING! The place us definitely high-end but the prices are justified with the quality/quantity/flavors of the food they serve!
Absolutely going back there again!!!
An amazing ambience with great food and service. The animal prawns are a must try
Has to be one of the best places I've ever eaten (not impelled by recency bias). We ordered grilled salmon, spicy crab thermidor, wild mushroom pasta and truffle oil fries. It's disco for your taste buds. Even though we were struggling to finish, we force fed ourselves because it would've been a shame to let that food go for a waste.
Theatrics aside, it was the quality of meat and other ingredients used which makes a big difference; even the dip for fries tasted special and not just another dip. I can recommend everything I ordered there. The cocktail, whiskey sour or bastion sour if it's called, was great too.
It's a 10 for quality and quantity both. The ambience doesn't really matter when the food is that great but it could be better.
Staff is very cordial and helpful. I can say it was one of the best food experience I've ever had!
After covering both Bastian worli and bandra I think I am at the right spot to write a perfect review.
If you leave either of the Bastian restaurants without a dessert that's a crime.
We started with a berry delight mocktail which was more of syrup and nothing specific. The special recommendation was animal prawns which comes with animal sauce which is mayo based. This was delicious and a must try because of its crunch. We ordered a pan seared snapper this was a perfect one for seafood lovers. It was cooked perfectly with a lovely presentation. Lemon chicken was not crispy but soggy which could have been better.
The Mac was cooked with truffle oil and it was one of the best Mac and cheese i ever had.
Now the best part was the breakable cake. It was presented around liquid nitrogen and filled with thick chocolate and hazelnut. This is a must try.
The ambience or worli was better than this as they had high ceilings. Bandra property looks like a traditional restaurant.
