Review The Society - Mumbai

We recently visited @ambassadorhotelsgroup to try their non-veg sea food platter. The platter was delicious, Prawns had 3 varieties, and chicken was soft and delicious cooked to perfection it also had yummy fish fingers. We also loved dal makhani & veg starters here. Cheese fondue is a must to start with. We ended with mango kulfi, which was too good. Overall, it was a great experience here

I had dinner at this restaurant on 7th June. The ambience is very nice. I had Chilean Sea Bass which was cooked to perfection. The complimentary breads, nachos and salsa served at the start of the dinner were fresh and delicious. Staff was extremely polite and made me feel at home. Reasonably priced as well. This is recommended for visit.

The best fine dine restaurant in Mumbai. The chicken could have been slightly more tender & layered with butter. Edit: They brought in a really cute surprise cake for my birthday celebration. Eternally grateful for the warm gesture 🙌

A perfect place for evening date with your beau and a perfect blend of food and ambiance made the evening even more special. The food was lovely and the desserts added more sweetness to my evening. The food was delicious and delicately made with the essence of great flavours and the service added perfection even more. We had a oriental form of cuisine Chinese base and sweet corn soup, frozen litchees and chocolate pastry for the dessert and ginger base and guava base mocktail to accompany. Lovely evening. Hoping to visit here soon.

This is my 1st dining in 4 Star hotel & i was very excited about it. Everyone who is been staying in Mumbai for long time knows this place. It was a birthday treat so I was more excited because i was not the one who's gonna pay the bill. After visiting this place i understood why this type of places have high price. The reason is service, quality & authentic taste. You can see the efforts & talent the chef puts to make each & every dish. I have been in more than 200+ hotels but the hospitality which i got here was of next level. Very much professional, polite & they were treating every customer as the vip customer. Ambience was the most cleanest & peaceful among all. It was so gorgeous, the music was not loud, lights were perfect. I ordered many dish because they where having gold. I had manchow soup which was dicey as it won't taste like i love but it was way better than my expectations probably the best manchow soup i ever had. Wonton chicken was average but Paneer in garlic sauce was excellent. Chicken hunan & chicken chin chin is what we ordered in mains & it was undoubtedly the best. drinks was also nice specially kiwi Margherita was best. I don't eat salad because who the hell eats salad in hotels but this place changed my mind chicken Ceasar salad was so amazing that it became my favorite dish of the day. Overall it's a beautiful place but when you compare this place with other 4star hotels it's not that expensive. Service & quality was the best among all which i visited. Must try leeche ice-cream here.

Perfect Spot to spend your SUnday lunch with your family. this restaurant has been serving past 50 plus years and they have never compromised on their quality of food or service. Their hospitality was bang on to the mark. The effort to maintain the same taste throughout these years and satisfying every generation with their food has been their usp. The Society is located on the ground level of The Ambassador Hotel in Churchgate neat Marine Drive. This place is famous for its oriental cuisine. They also have a live piano session every evening where they also allow their guests to play on volunteering. What we had : 1. German Potato leek Soup ( Creamy Potatoes and leek soup ) 2. Borscht ( German Meat Vegetable Stew ) 3. Baby Kale & Citrus Fruit Salad 4. Roasted Autumn Vegetables 5. Jagger Schnitzel 6. Apple Strudel 7. Orange Bread Pudding Mocktails : 1. Kiwi Martini 2. Orange Margherita What I loved about this place is that they used fresh veggies and fruits and avoided use of essence. Overall the service and the presentation was up to the mark. Citrus Fruit Salad and Roasted Autumn vegetables were both fresh and refreshing. Autumn vegetables were served with Cheese Potatoes. Apple Strudel is a dessert where apple is rolled in a dry flaky crust. It was little dry and hard while biting. Orange Pudding is one of the best dessert I have tried so far. A Must visit place and definitely recommend to each and everyone to visit it. Its reasonably priced as well. Not at all expensive.

We had lunch at this legendary Restaurant.This iconic place is hardly 5 minutes away from Churchgate Station. 🔆 Ambiance :- Interior is minimalistic and beautiful. There are lot of eye-catching things. Chandelier adds on the beauty of this place. Ambiance is peaceful and classy. 🔆 Service :- Service is good. Our server Mr Elvis was always enthusiastic. He made sure to take feedback. Thank you so much for making our visit more enjoyable. We tried 🔆 Blue Heaven :- Combination of Blue Curaco,lime and soda. It was refreshing and soothing. 🔆 Strawberry Sorbet :- Brain freezing Drink ! Perfect drink to quench your thirst. 🔆 Golden fried Prawns:- Crispy from out and tender from inside. You can never have just one of this one. Highly Recommended! 🔆 Mushroom Red pepper onion dry :- Loved this one quite unique. A must try. 🔆 Lemon Chicken :- This was on the sweeter side.

Virgin Mojito - It's a regular mojito. Fresh and refreshing. Blue Heaven - Looked really very pretty and photogenic. Regular in taste. Nothing extra ordinary. Sarso Da Saag Platter - If you are visiting the outlet in this season then you should definitely try this platter. Authentic flavours of Punjab with jeera aloo, sarso da saag, make di roti, black daal. The platter was full of flavours. Amazingly made, must try!🥰 Sphagetti Fernandes is one of the signature dishes served at the society- the ambassador hotel. It is named after one of their chef who was associated with this heritage place for almost 45 years. There are a few signature dishes he used to make and are still served, all accompanied by the name Fernandes. The sauce is made of  cream, onions, garlic, Ketchup, cinnamon and butter. Cinnamon is the ingredient that gives the dish an extra punch. It is also flambed with Brandy, this gives aromatic flavours to the dish. One of the best Sphagetti we have had.❤️ Barel potato with corn and sun dried tomato cheese - Boiled potato with skins, filled with cheese from the inside out with the flavours or corn and sun dried tomatoes is what makes this dish cheesy and tasty. It’s not just cheese and you are able to tell the difference between the ingredients, also served with a topping of black olive. Flavourful taste all over.💗 We decided to call for the house special, Crepe Suzette. Delicious crepes tossed and glazed with brandy and orange sauce. Little lemon and sugar to make that beautiful zesty orange sauce. Vanilla ice cream served together. We always prefer desserts which are made at live stations, this was perfection. Orange sauce with marmalades, and some crepe and ice cream together, a spoonful for heaven. Cream of Asparagus Soup is a beautiful, thick soup that is rich enough to be a light meal or a satisfying appetizer. Made by butter, onion and garlic, the soup is smooth and creamy with pieces or asparagus put in for garnishing. It is delicious.👍 Would like to see more options in the dessert section. Ambience - ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Food - ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Service - ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

It’s been a long time that I wanted to be at the Ambassador hotel for a food review, and as they say when you wish with all ur heart the universe conspires to make it happen. Special mention of our bearer Nilesh for his service, Ashley our captain for his suggestions and warm hospitality, and last but not the least Chef Jagannath for taking his time to interact with us about our queries about the delicious food he made for us, even sharing the recipes. We had some fantastic Chinese grills which includes Pot Roasted star Anise grilled lamb,Barbeque Xinjiang lamb skewers, Oriental orange ginger grilled salmon (must try), grilled hot garlic chilly prawns which was scrumptious.For Drinks we had spicy drunkard ,orange salted margarita. For dessert we had Malai kulfi. All in all good value for time, money and energy. I most definitely vouch for this place.

I went to this wonderful place for lunch on a beautiful Sunday noon and that was one memorable lunch. The restaurant opens at 12.30pm. The staff is super humble and very well spoken. Valet is available. The place is spacious and very well decorated. I loved the place. Food was cooked fresh and was served hot. Quality and quantity was just perfect. This is place serves Oriental cuisine. We had called for Cottage cheese in ginger chilli sauce (dry) Spring roll Gang kiew warn (steam rice and thai green curry) Assorted vegetable with szechwan Braised bean curd in chilli sauce Hakka noodles Veg fried rice Chilled lychees with ice cream Over all we had amazing fun. One memorable lunch. I would really recommend this place and do try out thai green curry nd spring rolls. They are really tasty.

The Society Restaurant is an ideal match for your fine dine needs ticking all the right boxes. Recently was in the mood for some top notch Continental food and being in that vicinity, looked no further than this place. To start off with, we were served some crackers with Salsa as nibbles and also a portion of home made bread with butter which made waiting for the actual order quite easy. 😉 Following that we were served some inhouse special non alcoholic drinks which were amazing to sip on. We had : - Spicy Guava : The signature inhouse mocktail was served in champagne glass consisting of a thick blend of strong guava mix with a spice kick. Really enjoyed it for it's uniqueness ! - Orange Crush : Another inhouse drink, this one was full of orange pulp pure giving you a very raw orangey feel proportionately mixed with some sugar and citrusy elements. The texture was bitey due to the crushed ice in the drink which made it refreshing ! The food menu is well curated by the head chef bringing most of the varied continental dishes and flavours under one roof. Huge fan of the descriptive, well written elements of the menu which make ordering very customizable suiting your tastebuds. We went for a full meal which included : - Cream of Mushroom Soup : Super smooth and delightful, the soup was just the perfect start to our meal. We had it with the bread stick which complemented the soft mushroom flavour wonderfully ! - Chicken Olivetti : A classic Italian chicken skewered dish which was optimally grilled feeling smokey and packing a nice bite. The dish was presented beautifully topped with olives and cherries, served with a side of fresh house salad and tapenade. - Teekha Jhinga : Chargrilled and tandoored scrumptiously, these king prawns were fresh and a joy to eat. The spice mix was hitting but not too overwhelming making it the right choice for an appetising sea food starter. Loved the crunchy tails as well ! - Braise Chiliean Seabass : A thick cut fillet of seabass grilled served along with veggies and a super silky lipsmacking wine-lime-butter sauce. We opted for a base of mashed potatoes and herbed rice to go along with the soft well textured fish but the sauce here was the star of the show ! - Chicken Diane : Continental food formula here too, two huge pieces of chicken breast as steak grilled nicely with a base of mashed potatoes topped with rich mushroom sauce and veggies for the balance. We also ordered a side of crispy salted fries which went amazingly well with the whole plate. A lovely wholesome dish ! - Creme Brulee : Great dessert and loved the epic portion size. Looked pretty, tasted sumptuous with a satisfying crunch on the top layer and a super consistent creamy inner one. Must order !!! - Crepe Suzette : This looked so enticing and different on the menu that we decided to give it a try. The dish was truly continental and fancy with a light fluffy crepe folded in a watery brandy infused orange sauce lit in front of us on our table. The dish itself was super zesty and tangy mainly due to the brandy and orange mix but was balanced beautifully by the next level inhouse vanilla ice cream. Go for it if you are looking for something unique and some really strong on the tongue flavours ! 😋 Overall, The Society Restaurant treated us to a wonderful lunch full of some filling continental dishes and some great hospitality leaving it's mark on us. Had an amazing time and would surely recommend it ! 🙌🏼💯🍷

The society restaurant is a very good place, I had recently visited this place as I was craving for some good food and one of my friend recommended this place and it was very good. This place serves amazing sea food. It is a fine dine restrained where you can go with your family. Ambience is quite good staff was very Sophisticated and seating was comfortable. I loved the way they were greeting their guests, the vibes there were good. Would defiantly recommend this place. Things we tried - Grilled chicken cheromoula - 5/5 - This was basically chicken breast grilled In African style garlic, parsley and cilantro. Flavour of each an every ingredient was perfect. Chicken breast was grilled properly. Best dish for non vegetarians. Moroccan grilled prwans - 5/5 (highly recommended) prawns were grilled with Moroccan spices which tasted really very good. This was one of my favourite dishes over here. For sea food lover this is the must try dish. Loveddd it! Morrocon salmon in spicy tamoto sauce - 5/5 - pink salmon was grilled with traditional morrocan spices which was again perfect. It was served with tomato sauce which was the best, flavours of the sauce was on point. Can try if you like salmon.

The Society Restaurant - The Ambassador. , One those places which always come up in my eye whenever I visit the town and it had always been on my wish list to dine at this place. Located on the ground floor of the beautiful Ambassador hotel. Yes, it's fine dining with a great variety to be offered for our palate. Reservation would come in handy in case you're planning to visit. The interiors are very elegant and the table set up was just on point. I loved the cutlery in particular. Being a fin dining, they serve a variety of Indian and continental dishes but they have started up with oriental cuisine as well which we tried out. Good quantity in a single serving along with the appropriate presentation. We started off with "Spicy Seafood Soup" which I didn't find out to be that spicy but the taste made up for it. It was absolutely delicious and refreshing and the best thing to begin with. "Peking Pomfret" is what I would suggest. A huge portion of marinated pomfret fillets stir-fried with ginger, garlic, and chili. It had the perfect oriental touch to it with well-balanced spice levels. Decent portion for 2 people. Tastes much better when had with the sauces served on the table. Soy sauce was my favorite. The "Shu Mai Prawn Dumplings" was also a great thing to be had. 6 generous steamed pieces served on our table. Also, it can be relished in pan-fried or chicken options. Prawns being my favorite and I was satisfied with the taste. Our mains had to be something which comprised of rice and gravy. Upon the recommendation of the server, went for the "Chin Hai Chicken" with Cantonese Chicken Pot Rice (Chicken). Stir-fried chicken in red chilly sauce with pot rice, nothing could go wrong. Great recommendation by the team. Also, the quantity was way too much, can be easily had by 3 people. Thus was the experience. Lovely oriental food and great service/ambiance. Also. can't wait to try out their other cuisines. Will visit soon. Cheers.
