★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Ambience states the royalty of the restaurant. The Restaurant that serves Indian authentic cuisine, it can be divied in to four segments. The vegetarian, the non veg the sea food and mix and match food. Prices are logical according to the star rating of the hotel. Portions are absolutely more than enough. For a meal for two you will spend anything from 4 to 4.5 k depending on the choice of food ordered. The drink menus is awesome and one can get anything that money can buy. If you are in town till 7 April 2019 you must visit Nawab Saheb to enjoy authentic Rajasthani food and live Rajasthani music and dance festival
Meal for one is priced at 2800/- for festival ( unlimited)

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Hearing about the Jugalbandi Festival going on at Renaissance Powai, we were excited to try out the Lucknowi & Hyderabadi cuisines prepared by the chefs. So off we went on a fine Sunday evening and trust us, we weren't disappointed.
We were greeted by the Ghazal singers singing live songs.. so lively, so amazing, it was a treat to our ears!!
Of the Veg starters we tried , the Lucknowi Dudhiya kebab was the one which we loved the most with the potatoes and cheese stuffed (we were quite sceptical about it when we read on the menu). We also tried the Lucknowi Hare Awadhi Kebab which was typical spinach based but the Awadhi spices gave it a different twist. The Hyderabadi Starters (Begum Pasand Akhroti Seekh, Charminar ke Kebab & Nizami - E - Khaas) were also good in flavours but not as good as the Lucknowi starters.. so for us Lucknow was the winner in this category.
For the main course, we were served Lucknowi Kaju Makhane ki Sabji (again the best of the sabjis) & Dal Nawab Saheb (urad lentil). On the Hyderabadi side, we were served Mir Ahmed ke Paneer & Sabzi Nizami Korma alongwith a mixed basket or breads (Naan, Paratha, Missi Roti) and a pot of freshly prepared Hyderabadi Biryani. The Dal & Biryani was a hit-hit combo but what really tickled our tastebuds was the Kaju Makhane ki Sabji (would never have ordered it if it was another day but will surely order it again at Nawab Saheb).
There were a variety of desserts to choose from. On the Lucknowi desserts side were Shahi Tukda, Sewaiyya ka Muzaffar, Gulab ke Kheer & Gyaani Malai Pedha. The Hyderabadi desserts, Qurbaani ka Meetha, Gil - E - Firdus & Boondi ke Ladoo were as delicious as the names suggest. The dessert winner for us were the fresh soft Boondi ke Ladoo & the Malai Pedha and that made it a tie in the dessert section.
For us, clearly the Lucknowi cuisine was the winner of this Jugalbandi contest but it was an amazing array of dishes presented by both the chefs with the regional flavours definitely showing in the dishes served.
All said and done, the food, flavours, service & hospitality gave us a Royal feeling and we left with a smile & a mental note to go back again for another meal.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Nawab Saheb, deserves full credit for it's effort and the wonderful dining experience it provides for it's customers.
.
Firstly ,the ambience stuns you. High ceilings, humongous pillars, royalty dining and seating like a Maharaja. It's exclusive, splendid, and lavish.
.
Secondly, getting past the decor, the live music sways you to no end. There's ghazals and a soothing singers voice as well as melodious taals of the tabla player, who definitely and genuinely make it a point to play your requests and entertain you. Kudos.
.
Thirdly, the staff is courteous, welcoming, and greet you with certainty. The chef welcomes you and the Manager smiles through a good conversation. Lovely set of people and very humble and sweet.
.
Service is Good enough, but I personally found the place to be over priced for what it was offering.
.
I started off with the Non Veg Platter, with a generous serving portion (5 pieces) of different meats combined. Basically a happy protein platter. You have the Galauti kebab, which is the best dish of the day. Velvety , smooth, soft, moist and delicious. ?
The Prawn and the Lobster, needed seasoning as there was a steady lack of it.
And both the chicken appetizers, were on point and fabulous. Delicate and Tasty. ?
.
For mains, I found myself stuffing my mouth with a variety of gravies and enjoying myself completely on the Kaali Daal, which is definitely a recommendation. ?
Secondly, the Nihari Mutton, is another dish par excellence and a chefs speciality. Mutton so well done, and melts in your mouth . ?
.
The Other Gravies were okayish, decent effort.
.
The Biryani was a disappointment. Very oily. Aromatic, yet bland. But mutton cooked to perfection.
.
The dessert platter is a heaven for Indian dessert lovers, and have a wide range to choose from and end their meal with paan.
.
The reason, this place is a complete fiver from my side, is because of my overall experience and the joy of dining. Every attribute complimented the other , to give a rewarding time, I spent at Nawab Saheb. Thankyou for that. All the best.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I am glad that I visited this restaurant during my short stay in Mumbai. This is especially good for someone who has limited knowledge as to how to order food in India - this is my first meal after arriving the hotel at night. Excellent food (of course there are a few dishes that aren't that great but net-net I'm really satisfied) and good service/environment. Nice!

INSIGHTS
The Chef was kind enough to share few insights about the menu curated for this festival. The Tandoor dishes were made in desi ghee but not a single drop of excess ghee was visible on the platter. Kudos ?
The 5-6 starters dint seem to overfill our tummy which was great as we could enjoy the main course & dessert equally.
Papad was served with three variants of chutney which were - mint, imli & roasted tomato ?
Paneer is made in house, hence contains less fat, is softer & tastier.
Tandoor items were served with beetroot dressing which was yummy ?
Paneer Kaliyan, Daal Makhani were irresistible& Veg biryani was delightful.
To end our meal we headed to the dessert Counter where you could choose from phirni, Gulab Jamun,
kaju katli, sheera etc
VERDICT
Felt like a Nawab as they spoilt me with scrumptious food, beautiful decor, soothing ambience & top notch hospitality from the entire staff management.
A special thank you ? to the Chef & our table servers Mr Piyush & Akshay for making our dinner experience worthwhile.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Renaissance Hotel Powai is nothing short of royal and beautiful. Simply amazing hospitality and such pretty restaurants. This Infact, was my reason to visit Nawab Saheb for their ongoing Tawa & Tandoor Festival (20th- 28th September) as there are very few restaurants who actually go out of their way to curate special menus like these. Brainchild of Chef Yunus Khan, I think everything on the menu was fantastic. Service was slow as the restaurant was quite packed, being a Friday night. I opted for the vegetarian fare priced at 2800. Frankly, I thought it was value for money only because of the main course. Just their dal makhani and paneer will leave you licking your fingers till the end. Here's what the spread consisted of and how I felt about it :
Vegetarian :
1. Til Malai ka Phool (5/5)- Melt in the mouth brocolli with cream cheese. Found the cauliflower okayish.
2. Chef Yunus Khan ka Paneer Tikka (10/5)- Star dish! Has to be the best I've had in a long time. Highly recommended.
3. Subz ki Ashraphiya (3/5)- Found it average.
4. Bhune Bhutte ke Seekh (5/5)- AMAZING combination of seekh Kebab and babycorn. YUM.
5. Kabuki Kebab (3/5)- Found it too dry. Taste wise as well, bland due to Chickpeas.
6. Chukunder ke Kebab (4/5)- Beetroot galauti, it was nice.
7. Kumbh ke Galawat (5/5)- Wow. Has to be the one thing I'd come back for! Surprisingly it was served on a thepla kind of bread.
8. Aloo Atishi (4/5)- Bharwan aloo, classic.
Mains :
1. Paneer Kaliyan (10/5)- Now that's what I'm talking about. It's dishes like these that make you remember these hotels. No one does mains like them. I ALWAYS skip mains but yesterday I was too tempted after a bite and ended up having 3 pieces of bread after such heavy array of starters. MY FAVOURITE FROM YESTERDAY because it was cashew gravy, so creamy, soft paneer chunks and rightly spiced. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
2. Daal Nawab (10/5)- Probably as good as the one I've had in Delhi at ITC. Properly slow cooked for 48 hours, perfectly creamy and texture was just right. Not overdone. Yum.
3. Subz Biryani - couldn't dare to try it. Was too full.
Desserts : Assorted variety
Motichoor Laddoo, Kaju Katli, Kalakand, Gulab Jamun, Akhroti Halwa, Phirni - all were great but my favourites were the Phirni and Gulab Jamun.
Great staff and great hospitality by team. Special thanks to Manager Avanish, steward Shrikant and Chef Rahul Karve.

The food was outstanding and the kulfi was to die for. Thank you for a great experience. The chef also gave us sampler for stuffed paneer and dal makhani which is very delicious. Amazing food, excellent service. Certainly visiting again.
