Hot food. Decent portion size. Lemon soda was ok. The chicken tikka salad was average. Fish tandoori was really upto the mark. And chicken tandoori was also delightful.

When you take over 2 hours to deliver three items (a soup, samosas and some tangdi) and ur quoted delivery time is 40 minutes or so, you better hope that it's going to be some of the best you've eaten and that the food is still hot.<br/><br/>Neither of these were the case, the soup had the most flavour of all the items, pity it was lukewarm bordering on cold. The samosas looked overcooked and the filling was as appealing as they were visually, however by far the worst was the chicken tangdi... the slightly warm drumsticks looked quite ok when we opened box, however the flavour seems to have been left in the kitchen, it was seriously like biting into a bit of steamed chicken, they were so bland and boring, its such a shame as they looked nicely chargrilled but tasted of nothing.<br/><br/>The generic, copy and paste response they have to bad reviews will be ignored, there's just way too many other quality restaurants out there that have proved themselves, with on-time delivery and tasty food. I will not be chancing it again with these guys.

We go to this place only when we crave Bun Maska and Chaai.. Freshly prepared buns with heartfull and spoonful of butter...yummm.<br/>We have not tried other items but I am sure they must be good too.<br/>Nice ambience and staff.

Mutton sheekh had a smell and odd taste - maybe not made from Indian mutton. Frankie was crunchy on outside but too little filling and too much liquid - almost chinese flavor. <br/>Pav bhaji was good. Kheema was good too.

Hi<br/>I’m not sure whether I ordered wrongly and not sure which food is your specialty. Anyway I ordered a Frankie and kheema Pav. Frankie was not a Frankie and kheema pav was cold. Obviously will be cold and the delivery took more than an hour. Again I might have ordered wrong and the dining might be a different experience. <br/>My first attempt was a flop anyhow <br/><br/>Thanks

You need to order yesterday for the food to arrive today!<br/>And to top after numerous tries and multiple rings someone answers and says “Sorry” lot of rush hence the delay. Order to leave in 3-4 mins.<br/>Delivery arrives post an hour after the call that was connected after 45 mins of placing the order.<br/>The delivery guy says he took 18 mins to reach.<br/>I wonder what time-management and commitment thereof!<br/>Except Chiken Tikka the rest food was not worth the wait at all!<br/>Highly NOT recommended! Never a second time ever...

Funkie Town Cafe is one of the most sought after place in Dubai especially for some lip-smacking North Indian & Parsi Food. We visited this restaurant for dinner. Ambience is small but very exquisite and beautiful , this place has a positive feel to it. I found this restaurant luxuriously warm & cozy.<br/><br/>In all for starters we ordered the Mutton Cutlets, Kali Mirch Paneer, Ajwani fish tikka & Murgh kali mirch. Not only the starters were mouthwateringly delicious but special mention of the green chutney accompanying it, was just fantastic. Then came the paneer frankie and chicken tikka frankie. I cannot lay a finger on the quality of food, everything in terms of taste & flavors was spot on.<br/><br/>For mains we ordered for the signature Mutton Keema pav, the consistency and the taste of the gravy was perfect, it was one of the best i tasted, the bun maska to have with the hara kheema was so unique.<br/><br/>The drinks we tried were the Masala soda, Kokum cooker and the watermelon ginger. All were excellent. And not forgetting the Casata icecream and the Falooda, which are a must have dessert after the scrumptious meal.<br/><br/>With the excellent service, 2 hours free parking and the fabulous food, this restaurant is definitely in my repeat list for future visit.<br/>

While it took around 75 minutes for the food to be delivered, the sad part was while we were calling the restaurant and nagging zomato to follow up on our order, we were notified that our order had been delivered on the app. This was frustrating since we had no idea where our food was. <br/>Coming to the actual food, my husband and i had ordered a portion of paneer burji and chole bature each. We were sure that the quantity would be more than enough, since the paneer burji was priced at 35 AED. We were shocked to find a mangy piece of bun cut into two served along with the paneer. The chole bature was okay, nothing exceptional. My poor husband ended up eating some bread from the fridge. All this after paying 61 AED for the meal. This is one restaurant we won't be ordering from again.

We had ordered for Sali Boti, chicken tandoori, paved bhaji and a rumali roti. We are a fan of Parsi cuisine and were quite excited to try Sali boti. It was a complete put off in the name of Sali boti. The authentic taste was nowhere even close to what we ate. It was sour and tasteless. Chicken tandoori was bland and white in color with water in the box we received. The only edible thing was the rumali roti. I will recommend everyone not to have food at this cafe.

Cafe Funkie town really surprised me with their service and food. I ordered the following items: <br/>1. Butter Chicken: A staple item for indians and it was definitely very rich in taste and kept up to my expectations. The portion of chicken in the gravy was also quite generous. <br/>2. Bhuna Gosht: This was a very flavour filled item with the perfect balance of spice and savour. <br/>3. Paneer Butter Masala: I absolutely loved the paneer. It had a very authentic touch to it. I am not able to catch what it was but I am definitely going to order this one again. <br/>4. Mutton Seekh Kebab: The kebab was one if the highlights as it was super tender and juicy. The flavour was quite different, one I have not tried before and I loved it. <br/>5. Boti Kebab: This was without doubt my fav dish. I could eat this all day. The mutton was cooked so well. It had flavour pouring out of every bite. It is a MUST try item from their extensive menu. <br/><br/>The restaurant seems extremely promising with its menu, flavour and delivery service. The packaging was very carefully done and there was no spillage at all. Moreover, the service was super fast. <br/><br/>Definitely recommend.

We ordered : paneer tikka Frankie, sali boti chicken, zafrani tea, khari biscuit, patrani machi, chilli garlic naan, masala soda and cheese chili toast. Personally I loved everything we ordered , I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend the pantrani machi (white dory boneless fish). The service from Mahesh was spot on and he was very good wrt knowledge on the menu, plus all his recommendations were really good . I definitely recommend to give this place a shot

Its located in bay avenue mall on the mezzanine floor. A little corner cafe. There is nothing funky about the cafe decor. But the food is definitely something that we will come back to.<br/>We wanted everything parsi on that particular nite. So we ordered chicken fracha... which is more like breaded chicken cutlet served with mint and tamarind chutney. Its was delicious but

I love ur jlt outlet but today my delivery order was a total disappointment, the food was horrible! I ordered chicken sali boti there was no sali given and super oily. It tasted lik chicken curry and not salu boti!! Then i ordered a mutton combo it was for aed.53 totally not worth it! Also there should be 6 rotis but there were only 4. Also the food was totally cold. The roti n rice was ice cold .. I am a weekly customer at your jlt outlet but this experience has totally ruined it for me.

Absolutely pathetic and unprofessional approach by staff! Ordered veg box with jeera rice! First spoke to someone called shahbaz(058 180 3492 - not sure if he gave his real name) he said that he has confirmed with kitchen and jeera rice was send! Then when pics were sent on wats app for the number provided , feedback received that the same is not part of veg box ! Quite strange as I have ordered the same before been a regular customer and got the same ! Moreover if the same was not part of veg box why was the option still available on zomato?? After that spoke to one more very professional and polite staff! So polite that he refused to give out his name in spite of asking him several times, his feedback was “ why do u need my name , funkie town is big restaurant and u can just send ur complaint ! Interesting , it seems that the co. Is so big that it restricts its employees to give out name .<br/>Would never ever order from this place ever just due to pathetic and unprofessional approach of the staff. Food was never an issue

First time I tried this café and had some great expectations. But I will not be ordering from here again. What is the reason ? The Quality Of Food. Food Matters and if the quality is great, one will always order again and again. The Gobi Mutter was Oily and very Sweet. The chilly cheese toast was OK but not great in terms of crispiness. The Roomali was not cooked well. So as the Parsi Roti. They need to improve on quality of food. The delivery service was Good

Cafe Funkie Town in Business Bay is one of the best experiences of typical Mumbai style and Parsi style cuisines. Every dish handed out to customers is one of the best tasting and I can bet you will have a similar experience.<br/><br/>I tried their starters with Chicken Grill Platter. The chicken pieces was very soft and succulent which was very nicely marinated. <br/><br/>In Main course we had the Green Mutton Kheema with Bun Maska which no one should miss, typical Parsi restaurant style which we miss of Bombay.<br/><br/>The Fish curry was out of this world, a south Indian style green coconut gravy curry not only perfected but improvised by their Chef. Had this with plain rice so as to enjoy the rich taste of the curry.<br/><br/>I also tried their Parsi Style Salli Boti Chicken which is their fast selling and signature dish. Had this with their Parsi style Rotli.<br/><br/>

This place never fails to impress us! My family and I visited this place and we ordered their specialties like Kheema pattice , Chicken Farcha, Paneer kali mirch, Roasted masala papad and Bhindy fry for the starters. For the main course, we chose Chicken Sali Boti, Mutton Dhansak (served with brown rice 1 serving), Bhuna Ghosht and Berry Pulao. For dessert we had the Parsi famous Lag Nu Custard and Cassata. Also, don't forget to try the Nimbu Pani! <br/>The food is absolutely phenomenal and reasonably priced. Since the cafe has limited space, it is recommended that you reserve a table prior to your visit. The menu also had a lot of vegan and vegetarian options. Our total bill was about AED 500/- for 7 super hungry adults for that amazing spread. The service is prompt and our table attendant so kind and helpful throughout. <br/>Definitely going back there, again and again!

I was surprised to find Parsi vegan options here, quite exciting. Picked an all vegan meal plus the crispy bhindi which was nice. Liked the masala khichdi and dal, rated the order and delivery 5* and was enjoying it until I got to the eggplant curry. There were quite a few pieces of chicken in the gravy for the eggplant, pic shows one. I'm mostly vegan, occasionally vegetarian and dont eat meat or fish. The manager Mahesh was apologetic when contacted and offered a free repeat order, which I appreciate but not comfortable accepting. Please, please take active steps to avoid cross-contamination in your kitchen if you offer vegan and vegetarian options on the menu. This happens with establishments too often and feels super gross.

1. Fish Tikka : Tender Fish, One of my favourite just amazing,Fish was so tender that i wasn't able to pick it up by fork,i was forced to use my hand,it was finger licking good.<br/><br/>2. Chicken Tikka Kali Mirch : Juicy tikkas were really good.They were melting in mouth, bursts of flavor, good quality with perfect quantity.It's worth trying.<br/><br/>3. Tangdi kebab: Being a punjabi i had best tangdi's in my life.They need to work on this dish a little more as it wasn't that juicy and wasn't well done.<br/><br/>I have been to this place before.Thanks to zomato Gold👍🏻.<br/><br/>The staff is really friendly...😇<br/><br/>Good spot - 4*<br/><br/>Service - 5*<br/><br/>Food - 4*<br/>

Recently tried and ordered from here the first time and enjoyed the food so much! It led to me order from them within a few days again. Of course I had the vested motivation of trying things from their menu and figuring out what’s to become my favourites .First time around I ordered the patra ni macchi and a chicken Frankie. Frankie is a generous enough portion of like almost two half long rolls. The flavours were amazing! (Although their sauces seem to be on the milder side which I still enjoyed ) so if you want spicier perhaps mention so. The second time around ordered a Prawn Patia combo box along with Dhansak, Masala khichdi and chicken cutlet and some Kheema Pao. Oh how I relished ! the khichdi and the cutlet , the Dhansak and the prawns and Kheema were nice too but tad sweeter than I expected. All in all I love ! the food from here and they do deserve 5 stars. However I take away the one star for the disappointingly long wait. On both occasions my delivery was really late, first time around 45 mins which is ( understandable at lunch time ) but second time was a whole hours wait! My only feedback is to perhaps give a more realistic delivery time or work on their time schedule and delivery. Another tiny upset was my one missing Roti, 😢got just one instead of two mentioned on the menu. Saw that in another review. So hope they fix that either with the portion being offered or correct the quantity mentioned. Keep up the good work on the great flavours meanwhile!🤗

A good parsi restaurant. Tried their Chicken Farcha which was a bit oily, but i guess thats how its supposed to be.<br/>Their butter chicken was also good but was prepared in Mumbai style, so the Delhiites would not find it mouth watering.<br/>Overall service was good, staff was great!!<br/>Value for money!!<br/>If you are ordering food, then their combos are amazing. I order lunch from them for twice a week and it never disappoints me..!!

Really yummy Parsi food. Their masala khichri and dhansak daal is delicious and I devoured it within minutes. The bhindi fry wasn’t great though, I think too much batter made it extremely hard and a bit difficult to eat more than a couple. The Aloo tiki was yummy as well. My main complain is around the amount of plastic that is used for delivery, please try to be more environmentally conscious.

For fantastic, wholesome and unadulterated food, you must head to Cafe Funkie Town! I am slowly making my way through the menu and nothing has disappointed me yet. The all day breakfast is fabulous and I don’t think I have eaten a better ham and cheese omelette anywhere. My love for bread and all things carb loaded means that the bun Maska is the only thing I regularly order. The service by Nitin and Mahesh is exceptional and their knowledge of the menu is excellent. Thank you for your stupendous service each time!

Going out with office colleagues for a nice good meal on Thursday to relax and have a good meal. But then this was one of the worst service in terms of food, hospitality and customer friendliness.<br/>We ordered a chicken tandoori and mutton lamb chops. We were told over and over again that it will take 30 mins for preperation as its made in their special way. We waited thinking this must be something different so let's try and inspite of that the food came was in a hossible shape. Undercooked, raw and it had blood inside since it was dripping in oil which sort of covered the blood before we could take a bite and after a single bite the blood inside the raw and undercooked meat rushes out in our hands.<br/><br/>To our surprise the customer service was even worse they didn't bother to even acknowledge infact was asked to wait without any apology.<br/>Few moments later after the hotel personnel named Mr. Mahesh calls his manager saying that they're looking at a refund with no sorrow or an emotion that they served an uncooked and raw dish, the reply was "this is how we cook,Wait another 30 mins we will make again" with no sign of apology for serving a dish which had blood inside and completely raw.<br/>Having said that we have to go back to office and cannot wait for 30 mins even if you'll make the dish again, we were told that nothing can be done this is how we "cook" and its not blood.<br/>Another customer too having a biryani faced the same issue of food being undercooked but the cashier said last time you came you didn't find the food undercooked how can it be undercooked this time.<br/><br/>I wouldn't suggest this place for its way of cooking if that's what they mean by serving undercooked and raw meat and the unfriendly staff which has no sign of apology or grief.<br/>Better to not be so funkie by having their raw food.<br/>A complete no go and a huge disappointment don't let the funkie wall hangings and dialogues funk you into eating here.<br/>

(تمت الترجمة بواسطة Google.) يعد مقهى Funki Town أحد المطاعم القليلة جدًا التي تقدم أطباق Parsi جنبًا إلى جنب مع الطعام الهندي العادي لروادها. يحتوي المكان على إعداد صغير ولائق مع جدران تزين صور شخصيات الماضي.
بالنسبة للمبتدئين ، كان لدينا كباب هارا بهارا وخبز منشوريان بالجبن الحار. هارا بهارا كباب كانت لذيذة مع تذوب شديد النعومة في الفم. يحتوي توست منشوريا بالفلفل الحار على قطع من الجبن الذائب ومكعبات البانير مع الفلفل الأخضر لكنه يفتقر إلى ركلة منشوريا الحارة. لكن طعمه كان جيدًا إذا كان مجرد نخب تشيلي بانير !!!
بالنسبة للأطباق الرئيسية ، كان لدينا dal Makhani و paneer masala وبعض أنواع الخبز المتنوعة ومن قائمة Parsi كان لدينا مرق Dhansak و veg pattice. حسنًا ، بدءًا من الأطباق الهندية الشمالية الشهية ، كان Dal Makhani حلوًا لذوقي وكان جيدًا جدًا. كان مرق البانير جيدًا للمذاق وكان جنبًا إلى جنب مع الخبز.
كان مرق Dhansak يفتقر إلى النكهات وتم التراجع عن الخضار. كان الأرز الذي يقدم جنبًا إلى جنب مع ذلك جيدًا. كان مرق الخضار باتيس هو نجم الأمسية بالنسبة لي ، حيث كان يضج بالنكهات الأصيلة والمذاق اللذيذ.
للحلويات كان لدينا كعكة براوني الأحد وفلودة. كلا الحلويات كانت لذيذة. كانت الخدمة جيدة على الرغم من أن طاقم الخدمة يمكن أن يطرح موقفًا مبتسمًا وترحيبيًا. لدي مشاعر مختلطة للغاية لهذه المراجعة حيث أحببت بعض الأطباق وبعض الأطباق لم تكن على مستوى العلامة ، لذلك لدي رأي منقسم للغاية. سأعود بالتأكيد إلى المكان مرة أخرى لتجربة المزيد من أطباقهم الشهية للحصول على حكمي الصارم حول هذا المكان (كما أفكر بين 3 و 4). جرب بنفسك واسمحوا لي أن أعرف التعليقات أيضًا ...

Cafe Funki Town is one of the very few restaurants who delivers Parsi dishes along with normal Indian food to its patrons. The place has a small and decent setup with walls adorning the pictures of personalities of the gone by eras.
For starters we had the hara Bhara kebab and Chilli cheese manchurian toast. Hara Bhara kabab was delicious with very soft melt in the mouth kebabs. Chilli paneer manchurian toast has oodles of melted cheese and paneer cubes with green Chilli but it lacked the spicy manchurian kick to it. But tastewise it was good if it was just Chilli paneer toast!!!
For mains we had dal Makhani, paneer masala, some assorted breads and from the Parsi menu we had their veg Dhansak and veg pattice gravy. Okay starting from North Indian delicacies, Dal Makhani was sweet to my tastebuds and was very okayish. Paneer gravy was good to taste and went along with the breads alongside.
Dhansak gravy lacked flavours and the vegetables was undone. Rice served alongside was fine though. Veg Pattice gravy was the star of the evening for me, bang on flavours, authentic and tasted delicious.
For desserts we had brownie Sunday and falooda. Both the desserts were delectable. Service was good though serving staff could put up a lil smiling and welcoming attitude. I have a very mix feelings for this review as I have liked some of the dishes and some of the dishes were not upto the mark so have a very divided opinion. I would definitely be going back to the place again to try more of their delicacies to have my firm verdict of this place( as I am contemplating between 3 and 4). Do try for yourself and let me know the feedback as well...

(تمت الترجمة بواسطة Google.) Cafefunki هو مطعم يتميز بأجواء بارسية وأجواء جميلة وتصميمات داخلية لا بد من التحدث عنها مع جميع صور مشاهير بوليوود السينمائية التي كانت آسرة للغاية ومعلقة بشكل مثالي. من الطوابق إلى الأسقف ، يتميز المكان بطابع بارسي العتيق والعديد من اقتباسات بارسي المضحكة في كل مكان والتي ستعطي ابتسامة على وجهك.
يقع مقرهم في موقعين ، أبراج بحيرات جميرا والخليج التجاري. قمنا بزيارة مطعم الخليج التجاري.
الآن دعونا نتحدث عن الأطباق التي طلبناها.
كستلاتة المرق النباتي - أصالة مرق الكستلاتة البارسي صُنعت إلى ما هو أبعد من الكمال ، وهي علاج مختلف تمامًا وجديد لذوقي. إنها كستلاتة نباتية نموذجية على طراز البارسي كانت طرية جدًا من الداخل ومغلفة جيدًا في مرق البصل والطماطم مع التوابل اللذيذة. كانت هذه نجمة المساء بالنسبة لنا.
Veg Dhan Shaak - على الرغم من أنه لم يتم إعداده بشكل مثالي كما حصلنا عليه في مومباي ، إلا أنه كان لائقًا وخدم مع بولاو البصل المقلي كطبق جانبي.
جنبًا إلى جنب مع هذه الأنواع من بارسي ، جربنا أيضًا الأطباق الهندية مثل
كان Paneer Tikka Masala لذيذًا وكانت مكعبات البانير متبلة جيدًا مع المرق ، وكانت تسير على ما يرام مع laccha parantha.
كان دال مخاني لطيفًا بعض الشيء بالنسبة لذوقي.
كانت هارا بهارا كباب رائعة وستذوب الكباب في فمك مثل الزبدة!
لقد جربنا أيضًا خبز Paneer Manchurian الذي كان جيدًا ولكنه يفتقر إلى نكهات Manchurian فيه. نتمنى أن يكون هذا أفضل
بالنسبة للحلويات ، جربنا براوني صنداي ورويال فالودا اللذان كانا فاخرين وانتهيا المساء جيدًا بالنسبة لنا.
بناءً على تجربتي ، أوصي بشدة بـ Hara Bhara kebabs و Veg Cutlet في المرق و Paneer Tikka Masala.

Cafefunki is a Restaurant with a Parsi Vibe, beautiful ambience and interiors are a must to be talked about with all the Bollywood Cinema Celebrities photos which were quite captivating and hung perfectly. From the floors to the ceilings the place has a Parsi vintage feel and many funny Parsi quotes all over the place which will give a smile on your face.
They are based in two locations, JLT & Business Bay. We visited the Business Bay restaurant.
Now let’s talk about the dishes which we ordered.
Veg Gravy Cutlet – The Authenticity of the Parsi cutlet gravy was Made beyond Perfection, a very different & New treat to my taste Buds. It’s a typical Parsi style veg cutlet that was very soft on the inside and was well coated in onion and tomato gravy with flavorful spices. This was the star of the evening for us.
Veg Dhan Shaak – Although not perfectly made like we get in Mumbai, it was decent and served with fried onion pulao as a side dish.
Along with these Parsi varieties, we also tried the Indian dishes like
Paneer Tikka Masala was delicious and paneer cubes were well marinated with gravy, it was going well with laccha parantha.
Dal Makhani was little sweet for my tastebuds.
Hara Bhara Kababs were just amazing and the Kebabs would melt in your mouth Like Butter!
We also tried their Paneer Manchurian Toast which was ok but lacked flavors of Manchurian in it. We wish this could have been better
For desserts we tried their Brownie Sundae & Royal Falooda which were both sumptuous and ended the evening well for us.
So based on my experience I would highly recommend their Hara Bhara kebabs, Veg Cutlet in gravy and Paneer Tikka Masala.

(تمت الترجمة بواسطة Google.) أنا شخصياً أشعر أن طعام PARSI أقل من التصنيف. ولكن بمجرد أن تحصل عليه في المكان المناسب ، ستحبه تمامًا.
Cafe Funkie هو مقهى جميل في Bay Avenue ، مضاء بشكل جيد للغاية ومصمم بشكل جميل. بمجرد أن تتدخل ، يتم اصطحابك إلى أجواء الهند الكاملة والمقاهي الجميلة هناك.
لقد طلبت الأشياء التي كنت قد حصلت عليها بالفعل:
- طبق كباب: دونات تتوقع الكباب الحار ، أما طعام كوز باراي فيتناول العطر والنكهات الخفيفة.
- بيري بولاو: لقد فوجئت SOO بمدى طعم هذا. تلك التي تناولتها كانت فقط عطرة ، لكن طعمها يشبه البرياني تقريبًا!
- باترا ني ماتشي- واو. هذا كل ما لدي لأقوله. هذا هو أفضل طبق هنا. لا قبعات. سمك سوبر طري مع أفضل نكهات الفلفل الحار والكزبرة. يم
- سالي بوتي - كان متوسط. كان الدجاج مطبوخًا جيدًا ، لكن البصل كان قديمًا بعض الشيء.
-المشروبات: منعشة وشهية
إذا كنت ترغب حقًا في تجربة أصالة الطعام ، فعليك زيارة المطعم ، حيث ستجعل الأجواء والجمال في المكان تجربتك أفضل 100 مرة.

Personally I feel, PARSI food is sooo under rated. But once you have it in the right place, you’ll absolutely love it.
Cafe Funkie is a beautiful cafe in Bay avenue, super well lit and beautifully decorated. As soon as you step in, you’re just taken to the whole vibe India and the beautiful cafes there.
I ordered the things I’ve had already:
- Kebab platter: Donot expect spicy kebabs, coz parai food is about fragrance and mild flavours.
- Berry pulao: I was SOO surprised at how flavourful this was. The ones Ive had is just fragrant, but this tasted almost like a biryani!
- Patra ni machi- WOW. Thats all I have to say. This is THE BEST dish here. No caps. Super soft fish with the best of chilli & coriander flavours. Yum
- Sali Boti- It was average. The chicken was well cooked, but the onion on top was little stale.
-Drinks: Super refreshing and yum
If you really want to experience the authenticity of the food, you should VISIT the restaurant, the vibe & beauty of the place will make your experience a 100 times better.

أحلم بتجربة طعام Parsi ، لقد حصلت مؤخرًا على هذه الفرصة لتجربة بعض الأشياء المليئة بالحيوية في مقهى funkie town ، الذي يقع في الخليج التجاري.
الآن نأتي إلى أهم شيء ومدهش "الطعام" ، لقد بدأنا مع شهي
توست دجاج تكا بالجبنة والذي كان عبارة عن خبز توست رائع على قطع تكا صغيرة مع البصل والطماطم والفلفل الحار ومغطاة بجبنة محمصة هناك.
إلى جانب هؤلاء ، قدموا 3 أنواع مختلفة من الصلصات التي عززت مذاق الطعام
شرحات الدجاج: - كان العقل ينفخ بلعق شرحات لذيذة فكل توابل كانت مثالية فيها وكان الطعم اللجوابي مقرمش من الخارج لكن طري من الداخل ...
مصاصات دجاج شهزوان: - في المرة الأولى التي جربت فيها هذا كان طعمًا رائعًا ، وكانت الكمية مثالية ، وكان الدجاج مطهوًا تمامًا وطريًا وكانت جميع البهارات من الداخل تمامًا.
أخيرًا وليس آخرًا ، أنهيت غدائي على قهوتي الباردة التي كانت تفكر في تهب القهوة الباردة المملحة بالكراميل المملح وكانت الحلاوة مثالية ...
لقد قضيت وقتًا رائعًا هناك وسأزور هذا المكان بالتأكيد مرة أخرى وسأوصي به بالتأكيد لأصدقائي وأفراد عائلتي في دبي.

Being a foodie It was my long
cherished dream to try Parsi food , recently I got this opportunity to try some lip smacking stuff at cafe funkie town, which is located at bussiness bay.
Now coming to the most important & amazing thing 'The Food' , we have started with the scrumptious
Chicken tikka cheese toast which was an amazing starter toast bread on small tikka chunks with onion tomatoes chilli and on topped with loaded cheese over there.
Along with these they served 3 different type of chutneys which was enhanced the taste of food.😋😋😋
Chicken cutlets:- it was mind blowing super licking delicious cutlets every spices were perfect in it and the taste was lajawab😋😋😋 crispy from outside but soft from inside...
Chicken shehzwan lollipops:- first time i had tried this it was an amazing taste , quantity was perfect, chicken was perfectly cooked and tenderize and all the spices were perfectly from inside.
Last but not the least i finished my lunch on my cold coffee which was mind blowing salted caramel cold coffee superb thick consistency and sweetness was perfect....
I had a great time there and I would definitely visit this place again and would definitely recommend it to my friends and family members in Dubai.

Being a foodie it's always great trying new cuisines and this time it was Parsi food😋 straight from the heart of Mumbai😃
The ambience of the restaurant gives you a feel of the vintage Parsi restaurants in Bombay. The wall has been decorated with pictures of Bollywood artists and also some famous Parsi personalities.
The Parsi dishes we ordered:
➡️Veg Dhansak
➡️Veg Gravy Cutlet
We also ordered some regular dishes:
➡️Paneer Tikka Masala
➡️Dal Makhni
➡️Hara Bhara Kabab
➡️Paneer Manchurian Toast toast rather than a Manchurian Toast.
➡️Brownie Sundae & Royal Falooda to end our dinner.
⭐Veg Gravy Cutlet & Hara Bhara Kabab is a must try👍
They are in two locations. One at JLT & the other at Business Bay. We visited the Business Bay restaurant.

لقد أحببت الطعام وفوجئت بطبق الخيمة اللذيذ الذي كان يحتوي على ماسالا خضراء وفناء الجمبري كان رائعًا مع رصيف ناعم ولذيذ.
كان أرز دانساك جيدًا ، مثل الطعام المريح مع صلصة تشوندا أو بارسي وتوت بولاو مع رايتا
كانت وجبة كاملة. الأجزاء جيدة جدًا أيضًا. نيمبو باني كان أيضًا حلوًا ومالحًا مع ماسالا .... لذيذ
تناولت شاي الزنجبيل مع بن ماسكا وبسكويت نانكاتاي لإكمال وجبتي.

Cafe Funkie Town is a small place in the food court at Bay Avenue Business Bay but with an ambience of a cozy cafe with a tribute to Parsi stalwarts and memories of Mumbai .
I loved the food and was surprised with the yummy kheema pav which was with a green masala and the prawn patio was superb with a soft and flavourful pav.
The dhansak rice was good, such comfort food with the choonda or parsi chutney and the berry pulao with raita
was a complete meal . The portions are very good too. The nimbu pani was also sweet and salty with masala....yum
Had ginger tea with bun maska and nankhatai biscuit to complete my meal.

.
أجواء منزلية تفخر بمجتمع Parsi وأحببت مدى جمال المكان مع حنين نجوم بوليوود على الجدران
.
لقد جربت تيكا Hara Paneer وتم طهيها إلى الكمال الصحيح. تبع ذلك الخضار Cutlet Gravy وهو طبق بارسي وأنا أوصي بشدة‼
.
لقد جربت أيضًا شعيرية Hakka و Lasooni dal مع Chilli Garlic Naan. يتم تحضير جميع طعامهم طازجًا والجزء يستحق المال؟
.
جربوا أيضًا بانير شيزوان فرانكي وكان لذيذًا وشبعًا للغاية.
.
لا يمكن أن تنتهي الوجبة دون تجربة بون ماسكا وتشاي. عليك أن تطلب هذا مهما كانت الظروف‼
.
نصيحة أيضًا هي غمس الكعكة في الشاي والاستمتاع بها.
.
الموظفين كانت مفيدة ولطف أيضا. لقد استمتعت حقًا بتجربتي هنا ولا يمكنني الانتظار حتى أعود مرة أخرى
.
كما يمكنك الاستفادة من مواقف مجانية للسيارات لمدة ساعتين وهي أيضًا مكافأة إضافية .. انطلق .. على الفور 😍

A Parsi Bombay Cafe that brings on the golden memories of Bombay !
.
A homely ambiance that takes pride in the Parsi Community and I loved how pretty the place is with a nostalgia of Bollywood stars up on the walls
.
I tried their Hara Paneer tikka and it was cooked to the right perfection . This was followed by Veg Cutlet Gravy which is a Parsi dish and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND‼
.
I also tried their Hakka noodles and Lasooni dal with Chilli Garlic Naan. All their food is prepared fresh and the portion is worth the money 💰
.
Also tried their Paneer Schezwan Frankie and was very delicious and filling .
.
The meal cannot end without trying their Bun Maska and Chai. You have to order this no matter what ‼
.
Also a tip is to dip the bun in chai and enjoy.
.
The staff were helpful and courteous too. I truly enjoyed my experience here and cant wait to COME BACK AGAIN ❤
.
Also u can avail 2 hours of free parking which is also an extra bonus.. Get going .. Right away 😍

Café Funkie Town – I simply love this place because it truly brings the beauty of India & Mumbai with ambiance and delicious food. I visited the business bay branch, which is a small and cozy outlet with prompt service. The menu is extensive and covers Parsi cuisine, vegetarian, non-vegetarian & vegan options.

My visit to the Cafe Funkie Town had been so amazing and memorable. I had been to this place over the weekend and no doubt the food is fantastic. <br/><br/><br/>I've never tried Parsi food and I was wondering how it would be. To be honest, I'm in love with the Parsi specialities served at the Cafe Funkie Town. <br/><br/><br/>Thank You Parsi Community for such wonderful delicacies that you guys have got.<br/><br/><br/>This place, as the name says, has a FUNKIE INTERIOR.<br/><br/>💛Vibrant coloured walls<br/><br/>❤Photos of Legendary Bollywood Stars <br/><br/>💛Old pictures of Mumbai's famous landmarks<br/><br/>❤Funky frames having catchy quotes at the counter<br/><br/>💛The Vintage Style wall clock<br/><br/>❤The Parsi Logic cards on the wall<br/><br/>💛Even the handwashing entrance area had mirror doors and crafted walls inside<br/><br/><br/>Talking about the food this place serves scrumptious food with good serving. We ordered a mix of Parsi and Mumbai's special dishes along with desserts and drinks.<br/><br/>PAV BHAJI - The soul food of Mumbai and this is also my favourite. It was served hot with butter melting on top. Along with soft toasted buttered pavs and the garnish of onions and lemons... yuuuummmm ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐<br/><br/>BUTTER CHICKEN- another favourite dish of mine that had butter melting on top. I know I'm not counting calories because this was another flavourful dish at cafe Funkie Town. We had it with Garlic naans. It was a mildly spiced and slightly sweet. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐<br/><br/><br/>MUTTON BERRY PULLAO- I must say this was a STAR DISH OF THE MEAL.. YES THE BEST ONE. I loved every morsel of this Pullao because it had soft and tender mutton. Though it's called a Pullao, it was more like a good Masalay wali Biryani. I loved the taste. It had dried berries, fried nuts and good Masala. Tasted Awsome..<br/><br/>THIS BERRY PULLAO IS A SPECIALITY AT THE PARSI WEDDINGS. <br/><br/>I guess I should attend a wedding soon for this Pullao if I dont visit the restaurant⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐<br/><br/>AJWAINI FISH TIKKA- had boneless pieces of fish, marinated and grilled to perfection. It had good flavours. ⭐⭐⭐⭐<br/><br/><br/>STRAWBERRY CHEESECAKE FRAPPE was my daughter's favourite. This was a mix of milk, strawberry, cream and graham crackers. Served chilled , topped with whipped cream, gram cracker crumbs and strawberry. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐<br/><br/><br/>LAGAN NU CUSTARD - This is a special dessert at Parsi Weddings as the name says Lagan ( marriage).<br/><br/>This was like an egg pudding with the crunch of almonds that is baked. It wasn't a very sweet dessert. And for me this was a perfect taste. It was something similar to creme caramel.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐<br/><br/>ROYAL FALOODA- This was my kid's and husband's favourite. It was perfectly made. Chunks of KULFI, vermicelli, syrups and all that a perfect FALOODA can have... ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐<br/><br/><br/>If you are a big time foodie , do visit them for sure and you will fall in love with the wide array of dishes to choose from.

'Delicious range of cuisines'<br/><br/>We had heard that Cafe Funkie Town serves Chinese and Indian food in addition to Parsi specialities, and so we visited them at their Bay Avenue branch, for lunch on a weekday. There is ample seating and the ambience is wonderful with a touch of Mumbai and Parsi culture. The staff wear masks and gloves and safety precautions are taken.<br/><br/>Here is a review of what we tasted: <br/><br/>1. Beverages: The nutella mocha milkshake and cotton candy milkshake were both creamy and delicious. <br/><br/>2. Starters: <br/>Fish tikka: It was authentic, moist and delicious. <br/>Chicken galafi cheekh kebabs: They were wholesome and tasty. <br/>Drums of heaven: They were like heaven! The plump drumsticks were moist and sumptuous. <br/><br/>3. Main course: <br/>Veg. diwani handi: It was a nutritious mixed veg. dish and went well with the chilli garlic naan. <br/>Chicken salli boti: This authentic Parsi dish was delicious and is a must try. <br/>Mutton berry pulao: The berries were evident in the pulao and the mutton was tender and delicious. <br/>Chicken hakka noodles: They were just perfect! <br/><br/>4. Dessert: Lagan nu custard was a perfect ending to this extravagant meal. The crunchy nuts and the moist pudding were a perfect combination. <br/><br/>The complimentary lagan nu aachar was very tasty too.The portions are large and filling too, so we took home the leftovers - the packaging was very good. <br/><br/>They also offer takeaway and home delivery services. The staff is polite and friendly. The ambience is good and the interiors are beautiful. Free parking is available at the mall for a limited period of time. <br/><br/>Price - 4/5 <br/>Presentation 5/5 <br/>Taste - 5/5 <br/>Service - 5/5 <br/>Value for money - 4.5/5 <br/>Ambience - 5/5 <br/>OVERALL - 4.75/5 <br/><br/>Instagram - @carolmathias17 Facebook - @RipplezzGallore YouTube channel - RipplezzGallore

I had heard a lot about Cafe Funkie Town. I am glad I visited it. This lovely restaurant serves North Indian & Parsi Food. It’s a cosy joint with good service and yummy food.<br/><br/>For starters I ordered chicken lollipop, fish tikka and dry chicken chilli which was done to perfection with no compromise on taste. <br/><br/>For main course we ordered Hakka noodles and their Parsi speciality Prawn Patiyo. We enjoyed our main course.<br/><br/>For dessert we ordered a falooda and I would say it’s a must have. <br/><br/>Free parking for two hours convenient location and good food makes it a perfect place to dine
