Good food. Good selection of mocktails. The music gets really loud late evening, night... (Plan accordingly).

Episode One offers a spacious ambiance and serves excellent food. However, it would be even better if they could expand their starter options for vegetarians. Additionally, during peak hours, there's room for improvement in the service to manage the crowd efficiently.

Great ambience, Friendly staff Had the chicken slider--- was normal,nothing that crazy or weird The Goan prawn curry was fantasticcc. Subtle tastes of the coconut curry and prawns, No extravagant spices which was amazing cause one could appreciate the true flavours of the prawns. Had the peach margarita and one classic liit,

They serve amazing food but for vegetarians there are very little options, they should include some more of it. We had ordered Truffle Mushroom Eclairs, Arbi Lotus Stem Water Chestnut in Kolhapuri Thecha and Linguine Arrabbiata Pasta, all of them were too tasty. Ambiance was also great!

We had an official dinner at Episode one and everyone at the party absolutely loved the restaurant. Great ambience, decor, vibes, service and food. We had ordered nearly all options on the menu. From pizzas to sushi to veg and non veg starters. The best dish was the humble black chana daal infused with Asian herbs. 😊 and to top it of were the desserts. Caramel cake and Japanese Oreo cheesecake. Both desserts were delicious but the cheesecake was amazing! Thankfully the music wasn’t too loud hence we could heartily banter and gossip. The service was quick and responsive. Thanks for a lovely experience!

Nice ambiance, food was okay for my liking..good coordial service staff with smiling faces...live musicians were good .overall a very satisfying experience for a Sunday brunch outing...

At first I felt like I just entered into a regular lounge where I would not end up dancing, but the crowd was good, service was superb. Music is really good. The food was apt and beverages are great as well. A good place to go with friends or even family.

Great place and vibe to chill with friends. The dj starts around 10pm but they play songs to set the mood the entire time. The food and drinks are a bit expensive but the food is tasty.

Innovative cocktails and compact food menu. Finger food tastes great and atmosphere is nice. I was expecting better service on a Tuesday but it’s okay.

They play good music and have a great ambience. They also organise office parties. Food is good, but quantity can be better. The crowd turn out is good and have decent people coming over here.

Episode one is good for all the get-togethers....they recently started live music as well in every Thursday 😁 Just one thing you are going for a set menu lunch. Please avoid it.

This place is in Powai, bit far from the railway trains 🚂 and metro 🚈 but a must visit place in terms of ambience, service, music 🎶, food. They are the full package in terms of a good restaurant. I had visited this place twice and both times they did not disappoint me. You can visit here anytime, it's a bit of a dark ambience at night 🌃 but during the noon time it's just a perfect place. The place is photogenic, with lots of antiques and showpieces. The food was really great, the taste and the presentation was top notch. Dishes I had:- 1. Episode one chicken 🍗 wings A juicy piece of chicken with bone 🍗 served along with salt 🧂 lumps and lemon 🍋, you can just add with every piece of your chicken a perfect combination of salt and lemon and chicken wings. - Brigadier Chicken tikka Chicken marinated and roasted in Indian spices served along with green chutney. -Cheetos crusted Slider: 🍔 So it's basically a small sized burger with a chicken patty chicken 🍗 crispy from outside as covered crushed cheetos and fried. The slider is served with sauces along with peri peri fried🍟 . Quantity is enough for 1. Must try. 2. Smokes corn and water chestnut dumplings : 🥟 Six pieces of super-hot Yellow color dumpling with a mix of water chestnut and corn. 🌰 🌽 I loved the corn and water 💦 chestnut texture of the inside filling. A perfect example of a combination of flavors and vibrant colors. Served with 2 sauces. 3. Truffle edamame dumplings: 🫛🥟 These edamame and truffle dumplings loaded with creamy edamame filling with notes of black truffle flavour. I sound like it was okayish as it is but sweet and did not like the filling that much. 4. Episode chicken wings 🍖 🪽: This is a Chinese style chicken wings. Fresh and tender juicy chicken wings tossed in soya sauce, chilli sauce and other Chinese sauces. It's a bit tangy and sweet due to the chilli and tomato sauce. So only try if you are open to explore some sweets. The overall presentation was good and it was delicious. 5. Asparagus Tempura Sushi : 🍣 🍤 It's a Japanese dish, I am not such a fan of sushi but I loved this one. Rice was cooked to perfection and tasted really nice. Tempura filling and asparagus gave a crushing taste to it. It is served with soy sauce and wasabi, you shall definitely try it. 6. Peri peri fries : 🍟 we also ordered for peri peri fries. They were piping hot and served with cheesy sauce. However, the amount of peri peri mix sprinkled on fries was very less which made it less spicy. It's one of the must visit places in Powai. It's pocket friendly with a good ambience, spacious and good music.

Visited few weeks ago on a weekend ,service was slow,dj was amazing was playing Bollywood songs,food was good but could have been better,cocktails were worth the money Fun place to visit with friends.

A nice place to catchup with friends on delicious food. This place has nice ambience and has very quick service. The pizzas were really good. All other food items were scrumptious except for the edamame dumpling which we thought was a bit mushy and thick. The drinks were average. Will definitely recommend this place for their food.

My recent visit to Episode One Restaurant with my office friends was a truly special experience, and I wholeheartedly give it a solid 4-star rating for several compelling reasons: Captivating Ambiance: From the moment we entered Episode One Restaurant, we were captivated by its fascinating ambiance. The stylish decor, soothing lighting, and the skillful balance between sophistication and comfort created an enchanting atmosphere that set the stage for a memorable dining experience. Exceptional Service: The service we received was commendable. The staff were attentive and went the extra mile to guide us in choosing the best items from the menu. Their recommendations were on point and greatly enhanced our dining adventure. Culinary Excellence: The culinary offerings at Episode One Restaurant were nothing short of outstanding. Each dish we ordered was a delightful explosion of flavors that left our taste buds in awe. The attention to detail in both taste and presentation was evident in every bite. However, it's worth noting that while the menu offered a diverse range of options, there was a noticeable lack of variety in the premier fish selection, notably the absence of Surmai fish. In summary, Episode One Restaurant provided us with a captivating ambiance, exceptional service, and culinary delights that made our dining experience truly special. While there's room for improvement in the fish menu variety, I would highly recommend this establishment to anyone seeking a memorable culinary adventure.

This is one of the rare places wherein everything is perfect, be it Ambience, Service or food. I visited this place on a weekday for lunch, so the place was not so crowded (not that I'm complaining of). But I can definitely feel the vibes it must give on weekends. So next time, will be definitely visiting this place on weekends.
