Khanak, the Churchill management have opened a larger place at Fountain called Mocambo's. Same food (with alcohol here) and prices but a far larger place.

Food: . Their deserts are good too. They used to have the most amazing Baileys Cream Cake though theyv stopped it. I reccomend the Oreo Cheese Cake which has a layer of Crushed Oreos in the middle of other layers of chocolate. Their Blueberry Cheesecake is good too . The deserts here are so good that some people come nd only order deserts. In drinks id reccomend the Peachy Cheek which is just sprite nd peach flavour though its really good.

Their fresh mango cheese cake is to die for!
Soul Fry: Bandra At Pali Naka
Anyone who likes Bandra and the people of bandra, will immediately understand it when I say this is the best mac joint you could ever visit in your life.
A place that specializes in Goan and Coastal Fish Food, it has become more famous for it's monday night Karaoke.
Ambience: It's not very large and quite cozy. Nice Bar, very friendly staff. Common to see the couple that run the placewalking around saying hi to all. Lotsa regulars, warm place, quite common to smile or say hello to people at the next table. Lots and lots of Joie de vivre everywhere.
Karaoke: Real Karaoke. Not pretentious (if you excuse my expression, i mean no offence) South-Bombay Karaoke. You will see a lot of bandra people who KNOW their music. From young boys, doing the Axl rose falsetto (that would be me, I've been told I do an Axl Falsetto very well) right down to older people singing "You've got a friend" and some Engelbert too.
Karaoke list is impressive, you will surprisingly hear a lot of rock, like Stones and Purple etc.
Food: As the name suggests, they have great fish fry. They also do mini meals/thalis, where you can order a slice of fish, rice, curry and so on. Apart from that their menu is fairly interesting and they will help you find something you like.
Cost: The food is not too expensive. Most dishes are between 150-200. However, we always get carried away with the bar bill because of the atmosphere and vivaciousness and end up spending too much. Great place to go with a few friends, get drunk, eat well and maybe sing.
Name/Location: Barbeque Nation , Bandra
Average Cost: 400 bucks a meal
Food: Barbeque Nation has a concept of a fixed menu. You cant order anything extra. They place a grille in the middle of your table and keep bringing you skewers with items from their fixed menu of the day. You cook the food yourself nd keep brushing it with the dressing of your choice. This is a great concept nd is pretty fun to do. I guess this concept also helps them to keep their costs down as customers cant order anything else. Its fun to do the cooking yourself the first few times though after tht when the novelty wears off you just wanna eat the damn kababs. The food is good though some kababs were better than the other. The starters are unlimited so it gives u a good chance to vasool ur 400 buckslol:. They change the menu everyday nd keep introducing new items onto the menu. The last time I went there I had some very good oriental prawns nd really filled myself up on them. The chicken however on that days wasnt tht good. I guess its all depends on your luck. A main course buffet is also included in the price which makes this place very good VFM. I however would suggest that you eat more of the starters than the main course. The maincourse is good too nd consists of the usual soup, two non veg, two veg, rice nd naans. Their desert is good too nd I guess it would be best if they concentrated more on their starters nd deserts as thats what would really be good. A drink is also included in the price. One thing that this place is really missing is hookahs. Nothign beats Kababs nd Hookah. its just a perfect cmobination. THey have an outdoor section where I think it would be perfect for them to introduce hookahs.
Service: The service here is excellent. You are served almost immidiently after you are ordered. I guess since theyre serving everyone the same thing there arent too many places where the service can go bad. However the waiters are very polite and explain what dressing to use on what meat very well.
Ambience: BBQ nation being a new place has a good ambience. Inspite of every table ahving a grill you never really feel hot or uncomfortable due to their excellent exhaust system. There is some outdoor seating as well though I guess sitting inside is much more comfortable
Conclusion: Even though this place costs a minimum of 400 bucks a person I tihnk this is the most vasool place you can go to. If you consider what your getting for 400, its just amazing. However having said that, even though the food is good its nothing amazing and there are places where you do get better food

hey dude
where exactly is this bademiyans
Bade Miyas is in the lane behind the Taj in colaba. Go to the Taj nd ask anyone about it. You might also want to check out Ayubs which is near Volga Paanvaala in Colaba
At the behest of getting some serious flak, I think Bade Miyan is just a waste of time. Its tooo hyped now, used to be good but not anymore.

Rajdhani and Bhagat Tarachand come to mind immediately.
List of places to eat in Navi Mumbai.
1) Chenab - Authentic Punjabi and North Western fare.
2) Supreme Heritage - Very good vegetarian stuff.
3) Bhagat Tarachand - Home like veggie stuff (reasonable rates too)
4) Kshan Bhar Vishranti - at Panvel (Bbay-Goa highway) - Coastal Malwani stuff. Was brilliant - now i have downgraded it to good.
