I was a frequent visitor here in my college days. A pocket friendly restaurant with simple great food.. don’t expect a great ambience here as you will be surely blown by the food served here. If you have ever been to baghdadi in colaba and liked the food there you will surely love this.
Must try is their butter chicken with chapatI as they don’t serve roti, banglorian kabab , hyderbadi chicken, and caramel custard..
Lovely food. Have been there so many times and may have tried almost all the dishes especially the Mughlai dishes and they all are good. Although this place is quiet popular so you might have to wait during rush hours and weekends.
Civil is one of my favourite restaurant, where I love to eat mughlai and authentic non-veg dishes. It's one of the best after bagdadi. I ordered chicken Afghani, chicken kolhapuri, chicken mughlai and roti, they also serve chapatis. The dishes taste amazing and they have a very different kind of flavours together which makes me visit this restaurant again and again.
The Entire Hostel Life near CST of 4 years we ate at this place and never got bored. Even after 5 years when we catch up, no matter how much money we have we still sit at this restaurant. Ambience doesn't matter. The food is quite good and the only place nearby that serves Wheat Chapati. Chicken Tawa, Chicken Roghan Josh, Chicken Pulav, Caramel Custard is among my favourites.
Located in a corner in CST area . This restuarant doesn't really have the charming looks or would be preferred by people seeing the place. Visited this place with 5 of
My friends .
We had ordered
1. Dabba gosh - 5/5😍.
2. Chicken biryani
3.custard caramel
Total bill -600-700 Rs.
This is good place to visit if you are looking to eat tasty food and on a budget .
I have no pictures of food at this restaurant but
this restaurant has been my go to place whenever I was close to Crawford market. It's been open since a long time and my favorites have been ginger lemon juice and caramel custard.
The food is decently charged and the portion is enough for one.
Must try:
Kheema fry
Dal fry
Ginger Lemon
Caramel custard
All the other dishes are equally nice.
Entered the restaurant to have some snacks during the late evening hours, ended up with a sumptious late dinner with a plate of Mutton Arabi Biryani. It was delicious, enjoyed every bit of it. A must visit if you're around Crawford, on a budget and craving for Mughlai. You won't regret gobbling biryani at 6pm if you step in, here!
This place serves awesome biryani with the just perfect portion. The caramel custard is heavenly. Must visit if you are in JJ school because their canteen just suck😛.
If you are near Crawford market and want to have lip smacking non veg food then this is the place you need to visit.
Small old place, shabby interior, not so courteous staff but always bustling with people and serving YUMMMMM food.
Dishes to try
Afghani Chicken which is the best selling dish they have.
Big soft delicious wheat paratha.
Chicken dum biryani which probably is not the best biryani but certainly having all ingredients to make it a decent dish.
Last but the best is CARAMEL CUSTARD. This is the best custard I have ever eaten. Soft, delicious and just melts in your mouth.
I can visit again n again to just have custard at their place.
Its really close to Crawford market and after loads of shopping we were tempted to eat something sweet and relax and have a cup of tea. Saw this board from outside that they selling fresh caramel custard and that drew us in. We ordered for the worlds most perfect caramel custard. Its simply the best I've ever had, soft, cold and not too sweet. Later ordered for Masala tea. Very well made and enjoyed every sip. I would love to visit this place and eat a meal here. They have daily specials and when we visited the daily special was Mutton Dum Biryani. A simple place, not fancy and done up, but foodies go for the food , right !!!
The best restaurant I’ve ever visited near Crawford market, Mumbai.
their prawns curry is definitely amazing.. every time we visit this place.. the masala prawn curry is at the top of the list.. earlier there was a dish called ginger prawns.. which was 10/10 in taste.. they have removed it out of the menu. The best next one is the masala prawns.
all the dishes served here are very tasty and amazing..
the chicken dishes are very good..
the restaurant is always full at any time of the day..
Right near the Crawford market a very budget friendly restaurant.. hygienic place and the food is tasty no complaints to be honest. But just that in case if u order Chinese food then it may take longer then normal for the food to arrive..
We were looking for a place to eat when visiting Crawford Market and stumbled upon Ustadi which is just beside the Civil Restaurant. However, we ended up having our lunch at Civil Restaurant and I must say we were delighted that we ended up having our lunch here. Ambience is normal but it's very clean. The best part is the food which was just yummy and very economical. My tummy can't thank you enough. Please do visit if you happen to visit in and around the Crawford Market area.
This is a nice budget place. I liked almost all the chicken dishes. Caramel custard is most try and unique taste of ginger lemon takes it to next level. But don't order a full glass, you may not be able to finish it. 😁. Order special chapati which is only 2 bucks expensive than the normal one. Service is good and is open till 11:30 in the night. Irani tea served is also amazing, must try. In chicken, tawa chicken is best of all.
Civil is one of the classic places of Mumbai. My favourite here is their mutton biryani. Also, they have good mocktails and juices here. Personally I love the fresh lime soda. Even their Chinese dishes are quite good !
Don't miss out on some yummy caramel Custard after your meal!
The place accepts UPI payments, which is a bonus. Located very close to Crawford market. So an ideal place for meals after shopping !
Nice experience. We ordered chicken kadhai and chicken biryani, both dishes are very good in both quality and quantity. Hygiene and cleanliness is also good.
Located outside CSMT station and nearby to the Crawford Market area. Not a fancy restaurant but the food is very tasty and does not burn a big hole in your pocket.
Tried their Tawa Chicken and Afghani Chicken with chapati which were cooked perfectly. Do not miss their caramel custard which is made to perfection.
Love their dal fry and chapatis. Chicken biryani also great. Such friendly owners and waiting staff, my home away from home in Mumbai. I eat there literally everyday. Old school Irani restaurant.
It’s located at in front of Mumbai police commissioner office in Crawford market food was good 😊 prices also reasonable staff behavior is also good I love to eat here .
This place is quite crowded during lunch time. My friend who is a regular at this joint recommended us to try chicken changezi and it was super delicious, highly recommended. This restaurant is quite popular among locals. Their service is fast. Will surely visit again to try out more items.
