Mumbaiwala Christchurch in Christchurch

"Came here on Christmas Day when most other restaurants were shut in the city, and the food lived up to the hype. The house daal and the dahi puri were outstanding! The restaurant in itself is really well decorated and curated."

"We had a wonderful experience at this restaurant! The ambience is truly special, with a beautiful old-world charm that gives the place a warm and classic feel. The vintage theme creates such a cozy and unique atmosphere that makes you want to sit back and enjoy every moment. The food was absolutely delicious. Every single dish we ordered was perfectly prepared and full of flavor — honestly, everything was amazing. There was nothing we didn’t enjoy. The highlight of our visit was the exceptional service. Ms. Tania took great care of us, making sure everything was perfect throughout our time there. The hospitality, attentiveness, and friendly attitude really made our experience even more memorable. Overall, everything was outstanding — the charming ambience, the fantastic food, and especially the wonderful service. Highly recommended!"

"Awesome food and great service! Tried dishes which were recommended and they were all fantastic. Great and unique cocktails too!"

"Delicious Indian food. Went for lunch, was a little pricey but taste was good. Make sure to ask for lunch menu as the general menu is placed on tables even for lunch and when we asked for the lunch menu the waiter said they don't have one, but later brought it out."

"The place is a vibe! We enjoyed their vegetarian options- saag paneer and Samosa chaat. Both were good! They were going for authentic Mumbai feel and they got it. I love the writing on the walls and their music playlist was amazing! FYI, their bathroom is so authentic to India feeling, it was scary. There is sounds of the trains in India passing over you playing inside. But it’s clean. Service is efficient - I would not say friendly or welcoming but got the job done. They delivered and were timely."

"Great atmosphere and loved the murgh makhani. The chicken was cooked beautifully, nice and soft! Overall a great meal and great friendly staff"

"We ordered the grilled lamb, butter chicken, and onion and cilantro naan. The lamb was a little too charred and wasn’t tender. The onion and cilantro naan was SO good - highly recommend, it was probably the best naan we’ve ever had. Service was a little bit slow even though we had dinner before the dinner rush. Overall a good meal!"

"Exceptionally tasty Indian food, probably the best I've had outside India! Decor and service are top class, highly highly recommend for a good meal that isn't your standard butter chicken!"
