★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Poor cordination I have ever experienced in my entire life. On asking for a SOLUTION to the problem. The guy at the reception asked me to sit outside where ppl were practically smoking. That area was literally DARK. REGERTS COMING HERE.
First the girl on the girl agrees to book us a reservation. To which I confirmed " I will be now and will reach there in 15mins". She replied " Yes". After reaching at Instabuli Cafe. The guy at the reception tells me to wait for 30 mins. Which i understand considering the crowd. Later when I went to reconfirm he changed it to 45mins. I saw ppl going ahead and getting a table.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I hope you dont take your resevation on the basis of privilge !!!!!
I was having a resevation at 8pm. It is so infuriating.
They told me to wait for 30min. Which is understood therefore i decide to wait in the waiting area guided to me. The waiting area was filled with mosquitos, people smoking. No lighting at all. I mean if i wanted to spend my evening so poorly i would have just made another call to instabuli cafe because that is how they treat you.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I would say highly recommended place to chill with your friends. This cafe is basically in craft bar. Ambience is really very good with good music and soothing lights. Staff who works here are very kind and approaching. Service was good. They don't have much on their menu, but whatever they've is delicious. Worth visiting this place.
Things we tried -
•Cold brew (highly recommended) - Very well presented with a small glass with ice and top of it another small glass of cold coffee. This was my personal favourite and definitely highly recommended. Excellent!
•Cranberry nojito - They've many flavours in nojito, we had cranberry. It was very refreshing with amazing cranberry flavour and basil.
•Ekmek sepeti (highly recommended) - Basically it was a breads, sticks and papad served with four dips. Breads were very soft with Two flavours. Sticks were served with butter.
•Falafel - Falafels were fried properly. Taste wise it was very good.
•Grilled bell pepper sandwich - Sandwich was very filling, it was served with ketchup, salad, fries. Filling of snawhich was excellent with lots of cheddar cheese.
•Tavuk Istanbul (highly recommended) - This was basically chicken starter which was served with chutney and salad. A very good starter I would recommend for non vegetarians.
•Istanbuli domates biryani - Veg biryani, including broccoli, zucchini, onions and tomatoes. Biryani wasn't spicy nor sweet it was in between. Brilliant
•Special crafted faaloda (highly recommended) - Best faaloda I ever had. If you are a faaloda fan you should definitely try crafted faaloda here.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We had been regular patrons here catching up with colleagues and enjoy the drink and food served here, but last two visits post covid lockdown, the dining and service experience has been huge let down, looks like they have lost the professionalism. Inspite of spending significant amount on food and drinks we had to chase the service boys to bring the orders and serve. The mutton fry offered here was good and when we ordered fes more, they told their mutton stock is over, here you can try their signature dishes like butter chicken, litti chokha and palak khichdi which is good. I hope the management notes our feedback and improves else they will run out of the customers soon.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Found this new place around bkc which has a outdoor seating and it has those bamboo umbrella's in all which looks so amazing. It has a koi fish pond at the entrance. The vibes are really good at this place.
The service is also good and quick. The staff are knowledgeable and helpful with the choice of dishes.
About the food what ever we ordered it was really delicious. The place is spacious and everything is surrounded my plants really rejuvenating and also maintains your privacy. As it was a get together we ordered alot.
My orders includes:

Aryan:
It's a Turkish drink blend with yoghurt, grated sea salt, chopped dill, parsley, mint, cucumber, minced garlic and ground cumin. Tasty indeed.

A regular mojito but with kiwi flavour.
Faluda:
It was sweet and really tasty

Mantar be peynir sis kebab
Tavuk Istanbul
Istanbuli Tavuk biryani

Everything we ordered was amazing and lipsmacking. My over all experience was wonderful and delightful. This place was worth the visit.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Istanbuli Cafe is now Craftbar. Easily accessible and located at the main road a bit ahead of Chetana college. Dining is open. They Follow all safety measures ✅ Temperature check as well as sanitization. The ambience outdoors & indoors is equally amazing. They have great handwork decor and great music. They have full bar available with high & low chairs as well. For coolers we ordered a LIT & Passionate- loaded with goodness of passion fruit, cranberry & lime. We ordered chicken kheema sliders, Tavuk Istanbul - pit roasted pieces of chicken served with pesto & greens. (Like malai tikka) & Solkadi shots with prawn golgappa- This is amazing totally must have ?
For mains we ordered malai kofta biryani which was Tasty and aromatic. Ended on a sweet note with English vinglish- this is a brownie with gajar ka halva filling. Must have. Must go amazing place.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Istanbuli Cafe (also known as CraftBar) is a lovely restaurant in Bandra East with a very pretty outdoor seating surrounded with greens, bamboos and a cute little fish pond. They also have an indoor seating which is quite a saviour as there can be many mosquitos outside during evening time.
The food is quite good and the happy hours for drinks is pretty popular too. They also have a corporate buffet which I haven't tried yet.
They have different music themed nights almost everyday which is fun when you are with a group. It can get a bit loud considering the music but overall it's a great place to enjoy when you have great company. Another plus is also that the pricing is quite reasonable.
I'll definitely be back for more.
