Mutton biryani and chicken cutlet are awesome. A must try for biryani lovers 👌👌
A very cosy place in the back alleys of MG road, it claims to be the oldest restaurant in Pune. It is mostly frequented by local shopkeepers and policemen as there is a police chowky nearby.
It serves very affordable and no frills food, which is fairly tasty if you consider their price point. Do visit if you're in the vicinity.

I wanted to visit this place for a very long time, and finally got the chance to experience the food and drinks from this place. I must say the service is very very fast, you just order something and within 2 mins it's on your table. I tried their in-house sodas, personally liked the lemon one as the raspberry one reminded me of old cough syrup from my childhood. Then I tried their chicken cutlet and Shami kebab, they were good. Then I tried chicken covered in egg I don't remember the name, I think it was farcha , it was recommended by the staff over there, it was tasty but very filling, so if you want to try more food items you can easily skip this. And finally I tried their very famous chicken biryani which was slightly costlier than other biryanis because of the quantity but it was amazing in taste (must try). And finally I finished my dinner with their custard which was also good. Overall if you are in camp and super hungry and want food as soon as possible, you should go to dorabjee and sons and order lemon soda with chicken/mutton biryani and you are gonna thank me later.
Dorabjee and Sons is one of the old institutions of Pune. Have been coming here since I was a child. They have maintained the taste of their food and service is very prompt. The waiters are friendly. Overall a place where one can take family and friends, enjoy a delicious meal without putting too much stress on the wallet!

The oldest place in the city, and third oldest in the country. Been wanting to visit since quite long, and just loved the food!
Went on a Sunday, and ordered the classic Mutton Dhansak, Mutton Cutlet, and Chicken Biryani.
The cutlet was perfectly spiced, but was served cold. Would have loved it even more if it was warmer.
This was my first time trying dhansak, and the mutton dhansak was just lip-smacking! It tastes like a non-vegetarian version of dal-chawal. The meat is perfectly cooked. Tastes like a homely meal. A new discovery which is just yum!
In the chicken biryani, the rice is so fragrant and well-spiced, that you actually forget about the chicken! A little chicken pieces just pop in the mouth and add to that beautiful taste of the biryani.
Don't forget to wash down these classics with a bottle of Ardeshir's cold drinks! I personally liked the raspberry flavour better, it isnt very sweet, and complements the spicy food very well.
The ambience is simple. The old menus hanging on the walls as you enter just kick in the feeling of nostalgia.
An amazing experience, coming back soon!
Tip: Carry cash as they dont take cards or other payment methods.
It is one of the oldest Parsi restaurant in Pune. Tried the veg pulao with dal. The taste was average of veg pulao, but the chicken biryani was awesome with a twist of Parsi masala. It tasted different from regular biryanis but was good. The mutton cutlet was one of the best dishes on menu. In desserts they served custard and kulfi. The kulfi was not up to mark, but the custard was very good, it was different from regular custard, should give it a try if you visit the place.
They ambience is the same as it was in 1878.
It is simple, but the place is spacious. The menu is quite costly as compared to their quantity served. Overall it was an average experience over here.🙂
Let’s just say I fount it a bit costly for the potion of biryani as it was meant for just one person only but the taste was mild and soothing but with the thick gravy which they served with biryani elevated its taste which I didn’t found anywhere else here in Pune. The mutton was juicy and the masala in biryani was up to the mark. Chicken cutlet was really up to expectation as it was worth a money and with rasberry soda which was I guess sugarless it was complimenting with each other. Even had the custard it was really different that the other places as the upper layer burned to make it crispy goes well with the whole chunk of it. All over this Parsi restaurant made my evening satisfying and light.
Coming here after 15 years and it hasn't changed one bit! Excellent food and great service :)

This place in the by lanes of Camp area is pure nostalgia. Many new places have sprung up in the last decade; however, this one is historical. If you are in Pune, you must visit this age old famous Parsi family run eatery- Dorabjee and Son’s since the late 1800.👈👌

Nothing has changed here. The food menu is still the same, courteous staff, impeccable service, simple, clean yet comfortable seating and portion size for the pricing is perfect.👍Quality of food is amazing as usual. Inhouse Hardy's drink, Chicken cutlets, Salli Ghost, Chicken biryani and ending the meal with their pudding. Everything was spot on!👌😋

Very oldest restaurant in pune, they have maintained their interior and test of food. ......
It's too much awesome.... I suggest to all please visit once. Limited spicy food we can enjoy. The restaurant has all the proof of their presence from old times. They have authentic making in now day's too.
I had mutton biryani, chicken biryani, mutton kheema, chicken cutlet and mutton cutlet
Cutlets are tasty but meat quantity is very less in it you will not feel it as chicken or mutton
Mutton kheema was good and spicy it is very sufficient for 2 people
Chicken biryani was not that good, masala and turmeric combination was little up and down
I got mostly turmeric taste only, it might be an issue that day I guess but mutton biryani was good it was all perfect I just got disappointed by chicken biryani.
Anyways as it is the oldest restaurant and I was curious to try out more dishes as possible
Ratings as per dish:
Mutton kheema: 4.5/5
Chicken cutlet and mutton cutlet: 3.9/5
Mutton biryani: 4/5
Chicken biryani: 3/5
I've heard a lot about this place and finally got a chance to visit.
First positive points:
Chicken n mutton cutlets are crispy fried n really good.
Liked Mutton Salli kheema.
Negative points:
Patra fish was too bland. The small slice doesn't justify the price.
Read about the uniqueness of the soda, but found nothing special. Ginger n lemon were ok. Raspberry n orange were too sweet.
Cutlets and other items also seem a little overpriced.
Noticed slow service even though it was not crowded.
Nice food. You get authentic Parsi Cuisine here. We started with Chicken Cutlet. Then we had Chicken Just superb food. You get authentic Parsi Cuisine here. We started with Mutton Kheema Chicken Dhansak salli. Then We had Biryani.Lastly we had custard which was amazing at taste.They are very good at Service.
One of the very old restaurant in Pune since 1878. The taste of mutton and chicken recipes is very good. Delicious biryani and kheema. Ambiance is ok and cleanliness is maintained good. Overall very good. Parking is difficult to find and road side parking is available.
The fact that I had food at a a restaurant which is 145 yrs. old is mesmerising. I did not see its old charm however you will be transported to that era the moment you enter the street and restaurant. Taste of the food is awesome, very neutral, not too spicy but full of flavours. I had Keema Pav, Mutton Biryani, Sunday special mutton cutlet supported ably by a refreshing bottle of Ardy’s lemon soda and mind blowing custard to wrap it up. Thankfully I was supported well by my friend who had travelled along with me 😜. It’s a must go place if you are in Pune.
The food at Dorabjee used to be legendary, especially the Mutton Biryani. Apart from excellent quality of meat and subtle masalas, we believe the extra oomph comes from slow cooking on natural wood fire. The Kid Roast and Masala Roast are simply superb. The Brain Cutlet, Liver Masala, Kidney Sukha and Kidney Curry are also among regular orders. While Kheema and Akuri is the breakfast special, steaming hot Paya (goat trotters) is available in the evenings only. And you cannot leave without tasting the delicious Custard Pudding. Dorabjee must be the only restaurant in Pune that shuts when it runs out of food, which is pretty often. Not high on ambience or décor, this is a place strictly for hogging only only in recent years the quality seems to have dropped slightly. Takeaway is recommended.
One off our Pune food list. Situated cozily in the legendary Camp area, this restaurant gives a nostalgic vibe as soon as one enters. We started with mutton cutlet, moving to the mutton biryani, both prepared in a Parsi style. Pairing these with Ardy's cranberry soda was perfect. And finished with a caramel custard. Must try for any cultural history lovers.
A place to visit atleast once to be the witness of a historical place, since british era they are serving the meals on very low price. The parsi dishes are a must try for everyone. Their ginger soda is awesome. The dishes are tasty, kebabs are nice and patra fish is very tasty. You will have a lifetime memory if you visit there.
It's a 145 year old restaurant. The Ambience is ok. It is right on the road side so no parking at all. The place has sitting capacity of around 50 to 60 guests. It was not crowded in afternoon. The place is maintained clean and hygienic.
Food was okay. The taste was good and portions were also good. It is famous for chicken, mutton and biryani. It is also famous for Ardy's Soda. There are not many veg options.
Kulfi was good.
Overall an okay experience. Not very expensive.
