Wish to make your dinner more romantic ? Lover of roof-top dining? ? Well, your answer is at Colaba!
KOYLA, situated near Gulf Hotel, next to Radio club, Colaba, Mumbai- is the dream destination for all the lovers. A roof-top resto , with sublime and scenic view of the sea, the Gateway of India and the TAJ MAHAL's dome! You must be really lucky enough to avail a table without prior booking because it's always packed to capacity with a minimum waiting of 30-45 minutes. However once you taste the food, every single minute that you waited for will be appreciated.
Koyla, specifically deals with Mughlai and North cuisine and so you can expect the food to be spicy, as we Indians love it. Mughlai food- choosing veg isn't a good idea but KOYLA hasn't disheartened the vegetarians. Afghani panner, Nawabi/ mushroom/paneer tikka, stuffed-aloo till wala, paneer chilly garlic are truly mind-boggling ( those indian spice and condiments just make the food very special) . Non vegetarians would honestly treat this as their paradise (a place to worship- just a hyperbole ) .
You would go crazy looking at menu , rather the abundant choice and the description they provide would just make you salivate . Those royal names of the dishes make you feel like a special person. Just to quote a few , Peshwari murg tikka, Nawabi chicken kebab, Afghani tikka , Kakori kebab, Murg nizami tikka and what not . If you're a fan of red meat then do try noorani seekh and the mutton platter. Main course has to be butter chicken ( almost noticed at every table) . It's the best to have it with some Indian breads. Koyla's murg tikka masala is a decent choice as well but nothing beats the butter chicken. Dum goshth biryani and Dum murg biryani are also some pics which you could opt for. A zaffrani lassi would surely go well with the meal.
The menu just feels never ending and i wish to refrain quoting the names of other dishes because I'm sure you're gonna start salivating and start abusing me for making you do that, haha!
Another feature is the ambience. If Ambience is the criteria for you then Koyla definitely meets your expectations. As i already mentioned that its a roof-top resto, the cool breeze and the Arabic decor of the resto is surely going to make your dinner a memorable one. They have adopted a very Arabic decor for the resto, however you wont find the dancers !
BON APPETIT!
