E.A.S.T (EAST ASIAN SPICE TRAIL) - Restaurant in Mumbai - Mumbai Suburban, India

We visited this place on a weekday after work and hectic day at work I wanted to have some nice romantic dinner and this place was a perfect fit. The ambiance was super. The service is undoubtedly the best. And the food we went drool over many items we tried, like: Som tum salad : 5/5. Wasabi prawns: 5/5 crispy and must have Kambing lamb: great quantity and lovely taste. 5/5 PLA rid prik : fish with oyster and basil. 5/5 Kung pao chicken : 5/5 Prawns noodles : delicious and mouth melting 5/5 Burnt garlic chicken rice : 5/5 and authentic food. Last but not the least. Wasabi ice cream : 5/5 different and delicious Dark chocolate cremeaux: delicious and must must try here. Mouth melting. 5/5. Loved the ambiance and mainly open kitchen clean food and authentic. Over all experience 5/5.

Dark and ok ambiance, limited seating inside. They have seating outside in front but for Hukka lovers. We noticed only two waiters running around to meet customers, take order and bring food. Prices are high though food is good. Caution: check your final bill before payment. We were billed for a drink worth 1200 plus 18% tax. Since it was dim light , we couldn't check the full printed bill and paid up. Later we contacted them on phone for a refund.

I had an absolutely delightful experience at E.A.S.T restaurant! From the moment I walked in, the ambiance was warm and inviting. The staff was incredibly attentive, making me feel like a valued guest. The menu was a culinary journey of flavors, each dish expertly crafted with a perfect balance of ingredients and creativity. The presentation was a feast for the eyes, and every bite was a burst of deliciousness. The attention to detail and commitment to quality truly set E.A.S.T apart. Without a doubt, a must-visit for anyone seeking an exceptional dining experience.

Review Summary: "I had a delightful experience dining at Delicious Bistro. The food was excellent, and the service was attentive. The restaurant had a cozy and inviting ambiance, making it a perfect place for a relaxing meal with friends or family. I especially loved the pasta dish and the decadent chocolate dessert. The only reason I'm not giving it a full 5 stars is because the prices were a bit on the higher side, but the quality of the food and overall experience were worth it. I would definitely recommend giving Delicious Bistro a try!"

Recently checked out Sahara Star's E.A.S.T's restaurant when I knew they have recently revamped its menu from being Chinese focused to Pan Asian cuisine which spread across cuisines like Japanese, Chinese, Vietnamese, etc. What I like about this place is their ambiance that takes you close proximity to the culture of true Asian experience with its live kitchen station, tepanyaki grills, etc. Sahara brand is known for its highest level of customer experience be it at the entrance of the grand lobby to multiple areas of this grand property and within restaurants (Covid protocols), that is one thing you will take back with you as a great customer experience and I had the same with Mr. Amit who was attending us with utmost diligence and care. I started off with Green Silken Soup (Rating 5/5). This nourishing soup gets most of its flavor from combination of Asian greens with base of spring onions and Chinese broccoli, bok choy etc. Sushi's are must have out here. I tried their Tiger Tear Uramaki (Rating 5/5) and Mushroom Truffle Maki Roll (Rating 5/5). You will be spoilt with extravagant sushi's that chef's prepare here. Highly recommended. Dimsums were equally palatable to our taste buds. I tried theirs Pakchoy and Golden Garlic in Beet red crystal (Rating 5/5), Chestnut and Asparagus in Spinach green crystal (Rating 5/5), Mushroom and chilli in orange crystal (Rating 5/5). Best of the lot were the Asparagus ones. Nothing fancy but a well steamed dimsums with high quality ingredients. Given we are fan of spring rolls we tried a unique take on the same prepared by Chef Rahul by the name of Asparagus Phyllo (Rating 5/5). These light and crisp rolls were very aspirational and certainly one of the star dishes of the evening. In mains we tried chef's recommended Mushroom and Beans in Hot Bean Sauce (Rating 5/5) Vegetable Baifan (Rating 5/5). A beautiful, aromatic and brilliantly executed curry and rice combo which is true to its origins (less Indianised Chinese). I highly recommend them. Dessert was Ginger Chocolate Mousse (Rating 5/5). Presentation was to the point and the mousse is not like any other mousse that we typically have. You will be surprised with the treat under that cigar. All in all a perfect experience as always from brand Sahara and am I truly cherish each of their restaurants. I rate this 5.

Got a chance to visit E.A.S.T which stands for 'East Asian Spice Trail' restaurant which is one of the prestigious restaurant of Sahara Star Hotel in vile parle (near domestic airport terminal), and the name truly holds true as the menu explores all the Asian dishes and the ingredients used in making those dishes justifies the spice trail theory on which the restaurant stands. EAST offers both indoor and outdoor seating , indoor seating has black and white interiors and at the center has open kitchen to witness chefs in action while cooking whereas outdoor opens at the most famous part of the hotel Blue lagoon which is truly an amazing place to dine in. Restaurant is managed by Mr Sagar, very friendly and charming also concerned weather customers are satisfied with the service and food. Sous Chef Vikas very polite and helped us to understand how they have curated the dishes and ingredients used in making of the dishes we had. And I am thankful to Mr. Amit who attended our table, very quick and patient in service. Coming to what we had !!!

Must try ...!!!! Sui Mai It's an open dumpling from the top .... Made with 6 variety of mushrooms like shitake, button, oyster etc, mushrooms sre minced and coated with butter garlic, stuffed in the thin wrap and steamed with perfection. As soon as you put these delicious dumpling inside you mouth, it just melts down in seconds, left you with so many amazing flavours of mushroom and hint of garlic. That's why makes it a signature dish over here and definitely worth the price.

Loved the dessert ... It had crunch of chestnut, softness from jackfruit and coconut flavour Binding both together. Wasabi Ice-cream Unique dessert ...loved it

EAST ASIAN SPICE TRAIL is a beautiful place with great ambiance. They have indoor as well as outdoor seating arrangements which has the overview of the entire hotel's interiors. The staff is extremely helpful and warm. We tried the vegetarian chinese options and each dish from the soups to the desserts had a unique flavour infused and was extremely delicious. It is an absolute must visit. Highly recommended.
