Jai Jawan Restaurant

The Punjabi fish fry is always the star of the show for me here. Recently revisited this place after age and was pleased to find out the taste has remained the same. Other items are all good too, well at least decent enough, but the fish fry is something unique and high on taste and freshness that they offer. Also loved their crispy flaky parathas. Veg lovers, note that the offer the softest, freshest paneer.

We went for a family dinner here because everyone was in pyjamas and nobody wanted to dress up. Plus we were assured food will be good and service will be fast. We ordered fish, prawns and chicken in various iterations and it was delicious. Sea food was fresh and free of any smells. Chicken seekh kabab was dry, so that was tad disappointing. The desserts were meh with chocolate mousse and custard not being served cold. At almost room temperature, they lost a lot of its effect. Chocolate brownie was again too dry. Was the place worth the money spent - probably not considering 5 adults racked up a bill of 4500rs (900 per head) with hardly any decent seating capacity and mediocre non sea food items Will we go there again - mostly yes, but for seafood items.

This place has always, always, always been my top favourite. They started off with a shop opp National College in Bandra decades ago and since then kept expanding. They serve one of the best prawn fry and rawas fish fry and so is chicken tandoori. The batter is outstanding with the freshness of the fish, unbeatable. Don't miss out the green chutney thats serve, it's so yummy that it can be eaten sole with the crispy onions served.🤤
