Episode One (Powai) - Restaurant in Mumbai - Mumbai Suburban, India

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Episode One Restaurant, and I must say it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. Here's why I would give it a solid 5-star review: Ambiance: The restaurant's ambiance is simply enchanting. From the moment I walked in, I was captivated by the stylish decor, soothing lighting, and an atmosphere that strikes the perfect balance between sophistication and comfort. Service: The staff at Episode One Restaurant are a true asset. They were attentive, knowledgeable about the menu, and always ready to assist. Our server made excellent recommendations, ensuring that our dining experience was memorable. Culinary Delights: The food was nothing short of outstanding. Each dish we ordered was a masterpiece of flavor and presentation. The menu offered a diverse range of options, and I couldn't help but savor every bite. The ingredients were fresh, and the chef's talent truly shone through. Overall, Episode One Restaurant exceeded my expectations in every way. It's the kind of place that leaves a lasting impression, and I can't wait to return for another culinary adventure. If you're looking for a restaurant that combines elegance, exceptional cuisine, and top-notch service, I wholeheartedly recommend Episode One. It truly deserves every one of these 5 stars! I hope you have a fantastic dining experience as well!

Episode One offers a spacious ambiance and serves excellent food. However, it would be even better if they could expand their starter options for vegetarians. Additionally, during peak hours, there's room for improvement in the service to manage the crowd efficiently.

Good and Bad I recently visited this place for lunch, and overall, it was a good experience with some areas that could be improved. The restaurant offered a decent variety of options on their menu, catering to different preferences and dietary needs. The taste of the food was generally delightful. The dish was prepared with care, and the flavors were well-balanced. The ingredients used were fresh, and the presentation of the dishes was visually appealing. Prices were slightly higher than usual. Perhaps a 20-25% discount or upfront reduction in menu list pricing would make it more appealing for recurrent visits. The ambiance of the restaurant was pleasant and inviting. The overall atmosphere was relaxed, making it a comfortable place to dine and enjoy a leisurely lunch. However, one major complaint I had was when the restaurant mistakenly served me chicken non-veg risotto noodles instead of the vegetarian option I had ordered. Luckily, I decided to double-check before eating, and they promptly replaced the dish with the correct vegetarian version. Such mistakes, especially for a restaurant of this stature, are grave and should be avoided. Worse, the staff showed a very casual and cavalier attitude towards their mistake, displaying little guilt, concern, or repentance. The waiting time for the food was slightly longer than expected, and the dessert options were somewhat limited. Rather I would say they had nothing in Deserts to offer. Overall ok to try for once

We had an official dinner at Episode one and everyone at the party absolutely loved the restaurant. Great ambience, decor, vibes, service and food. We had ordered nearly all options on the menu. From pizzas to sushi to veg and non veg starters. The best dish was the humble black chana daal infused with Asian herbs. and to top it of were the desserts. Caramel cake and Japanese Oreo cheesecake. Both desserts were delicious but the cheesecake was amazing! Thankfully the music wasn't too loud hence we could heartily banter and gossip. The service was quick and responsive. Thanks for a lovely experience!

The food and drinks here are really nice. The service is a bit slow especially on the weekend. The music is quite nice post 10pm. Definitely a good place to hangout with friends and family. They have a dedicated smoking zone. The drinks are a tad bit expensive. There's a purple drink that is definitely a must have. Have forgotten the name of it.

Great place and vibe to chill with friends. The dj starts around 10pm but they play songs to set the mood the entire time. The food and drinks are a bit expensive but the food is tasty.

Innovative cocktails and compact food menu. Finger food tastes great and atmosphere is nice. I was expecting better service on a Tuesday but it's okay.
