Anand Bhavan, Matunga
6 people recommendvia r/mumbai7 comments cited below
What people say, in short
Anand Bhavan in Matunga has a smaller but positive South Indian food following. One diner praises the pulit rice, kele bhaji and dosas; another points people looking for benne towards it. A separate commenter recommends its different halwas, while another calls the restaurant underrated. Two commenters prefer it to more prominent Matunga names, although a different local places it below several neighbours. The praise supports an alternative in the Matunga cluster rather than a unanimous winner. Evidence for a similarly named Kalbadevi restaurant is not included here.
