This place was suggested by a very good friend..They serve the best kheema items..but there are various items to choose from...my favorite is the kheema pav and tandoori chicken with Rumali roti...they also serve very good chaat items..evn their online deliveries are very quick.
Experience Rating: 9/10
Dishes Tried: Samosa and lemon mint
Opinion – Great restaurant with lots of energetic vibes. Food Guide Official visited this restaurant for snacking on some amazing Samosa's and Lemon mint drink. Both of the dishes were amazing with great services. Food Guide Official will pay them a visit to try out more dishes and share the experience.
We ordered pav bhaji, vada pav and pani puri all foods were yummy & pocket friendly
Pav bhaji was so yummy, bun was very soft and buttery but not so much buttery which is good and the vegetable curry (bhaji) also was very tasteful perfectly cooked & good quantity.
Vada pav was spicy & tasty.
Pani puri was average with turmid chutney you can say it was better.
Love the ambience alot.
Yummy pao and chicken . Had paani puri too but it didn’t give that kick. This place is good for dining
This hidden gem is located in karama near the famous al hara cafeteria. Loved the street style decor it’s a small place but they service some amazing food so if you love Mumbai street style food head to Mumbai Hafta. We tried their kebab biryani , Sizzling mix kebabs , Pistol Chicken 😊 and chicken sakinaka love the name of these dishes. None of the dishes disappointed us all of them were so good in taste. You will definitely go back to try more. For drinks I love their masala thumsup and Bakwas sprite it’s not Bakwas at all.

A relatively small place in Karama where foodies usually go to satisfy their hunger pangs. This restaurant is painted vibrantly inside and with a nice relaxed atmosphere seating outside to enjoy the cool weather's. We saw most of the tables occupied on the weekday which shows the growing popularity of this Mumbai Street food style restaurant. We tried some of the street food of Mumbai to go back in memory lane.
Maggi Noodles fantastic. Liked by children as well as elders. Very tasty and delicious. Chef innovated the masala to adapt it to the liking of elders as well as children. Keema Pav Mumbai style was simply superb. The best mince with nicely fried Pav made it an excellent choice. We enjoyed every bite and this is their fast seller.
Teja Omlette was Mumbai road style with the Masala Omlette enclosed inside a fried Pav. Took us back to our memories of childhood street food days. Do not miss this one. Vada Pav like Mumbai style. We found this okey type.
Sizzling Mix Kebab was a very generous platter with a mix of veg and non veg items. The best i like in this was the Chicken wings and Mutton Kebab. Mushroom Masala with Rumali roti is a very nice gravy dish of Mushroom. The base gravy was excellent and the choice of having it with Rumali roti complimented it well.
Jeera Soda and Masala Thumbsup is a must have drink here. Hafta Chaas , Thick Lassi & the Bullet Chai were the highlight of the day.
After two months in lockdown, we were in Karama to run a a few errands and decided to finally eat out. We have passed "Mumbai Hafta" many a times and decided to give it a try.
It's a cute little place in Sheikh Hamdan Colony with seating available outside and indoors. With the dine-in restrictions presently in place, they have made good use of the limited space available, where tables are placed well apart and everything is served in disposables.
We ordered a Masala Thums Up and the much raved about "Bullet Tea" - the Masala Thums Up was very refreshing. The Bullet Tea comes with saffron garnishing and tasted really good.
We ordered Pani Puri, Keema Pav and Egg Bhurji. Everything tasted really delicious. I highly recommend the Keema Pav as it was done just perfectly.
Can't wait to go back and try out the other Keema special dishes they offer.
The best thing about this place is the ambience. Its good to have a cup of tea in the outdoor seating of this cafe. We had normal tea and bullet tea, bullet tea is a must try. Their vada paav and paav and kheema are tge best.
Beautiful decor.....great food options....the ginger chai should not b missed.
They have good options in kheema like kheema pav, frankie, biryani etc.
Limited menu but the food is very delicious and also not that expensive. Gonna b a regular customer here 😊 especially for chai and bun maska🤗
Had Veg biryani and jeera soda. Absolutely loved the taste. Will definitely come back.
There is this unique biriyani they serve here . It’s a must try. If you are looking for some pocket friendly food, Just go for the Baba kababs and Franky.
A cozy place with beautiful interior and delicious food that too on amazingly low price, what else can we ask for on a saturday. We surely got more than we were hoping for. Food is amazing, whatever we ordered was made to perfection. I loved vada pav the most.
What We ordered(for 2 adults)-
2 vada pavs, 1 ginger tea, french fries, kebab, maggie, masala soda and bun omelette.
Total bill 70 AED. yay!! Really!!
This place is definitely worth every penny and more. Staff is very warm, welcoming and quick. Loved it! Will go back later to gorge on more food.

Rarely do I feel like giving a place a 5 from my heart and this gem of a place deserves it, rightfully. I love soft buttery warm paav. You can just dip it in tea and enjoy the slightly sweet bread or let it soak all the masalas from the gravy and devour it!Mumbai Hafta got their kheema game strong! Aromatic mutton kheema with matar, a Mumbai street food favourite is served in every form, from omelette to pasta here and oh so juicy!Also tried their Pav Bhaji which tasted different leaning more towards the use of beetroot👌🏼 Loved the egg maggi as well. Most places here screw up the humble noodles but they got it right with the lovely runny egg on top!Some other dishes we tried were the Kasthoori kebab, made from chicken leg meat, anda pav, paapdi chaat and ginger tea. All were 👌🏼Another favourite way to end the meal was the Falooda. Nothing over the top, simple yet so delicious.@mumbaihafta located in Karama serves some famous Mumbai street specials. The dishes are affordable and totally worth it! Do try their Kulhad chai in the winters☕️
Kindly follow ‘Lazysreezy’ for everything food related 🤗
This is an amazing hangout place. Late nights a lot of musicians/vocalist come and jam here. All the music lovers this is a must visit place. We found our Mumbai in Dubai ❤️
Good Food. Ordered Chicken Saki Naka and Chicken Briyani both were good and according to my pallet...
Very youthful vibe yet family friendly. The staff were pretty accommodating and fun people. We ordered a variety of dishes from mutton kheema pav, teja omelet, Baba kebab, kasturi kebab, seekh kebab, chicken sakinaka, mutton kheema fried rice, Bombay sandwich, gol gappa, kebab Frankie, chicken Maggie, lime soda, masala coke and ended it with a falooda and some bullet chai. Phew!! A long list of amazing food. Lovely evening spent with some amazing food and great company.
We went there for a midnight meal and we're so happily satisfied with our food!
Their kheema fried rice is comfort food and would love to order that once more.
Being Chai lovers, we had to try their cutting Chai.. And least to say, it gave us Mumbai memories and feels was one of the best chais we've had in Dubai.
Their sev puri was really yum too, definitely worth a try.
The paav bhaji was really good but slightly spicy albeit definitely do order one portion.
The quantities are good enough for 2 people and worth the $$!
All in all, will definitely go here again! Keep it up guys. :)
The portions were the right size for a person's dinner . If you do not want to have a heavy dinner coming to this place will be the best choice . Recommend the biryani
There are restaurants I walk into and feel instantly comfortable with. Mumbai Hafta wasn’t one of them. In fact, irrespective of its rather cute, retro-hipsterish interior, my first instinct was to turn and run. The restaurant isn’t big. When I walked in it was packed to the hilt with lunchtime diners. And the one free table was right in the middle of it all. If there was a way to about-turn with dignity, I would have taken it, but with all eyes on me I allowed myself to be shown in. I don’t do well in crowds, especially ones with slurpers and noisy babies in them. I got both on either side of me. And in the middle of all this, a pretty-prancy blogger barges in and starts walking among the tables video capturing ‘the moment’ on her phone – really? By now, I am uncomfortable (borderline claustrophobic) on so many levels…my left eyebrow has started to twitch. Focus on the food, focus on the food – breathe.
This place not only has a quirky name but actually lives upto that name by serving the most authentic Mumbai style kheema pav and chaat!
Lies in the heart of karama, this place serves some of the most scrumptious food at very affordanbe pricing. I literally loved everything on the table, right from their thick Punjabi lassi with beautiful texture and the chaas which isn’t your regular chaas but something soooo good that you just cant deny! Also, their delicious tangy chaats like dahi puri was literally bursting with flavor.
We also had their kebab biryani which was quite flavourful and filling as well. Overall, this place is worth a visit if you love to eat because no dish here is going to disappoint you. It’s literally worth every bite.

Amazing restaurant... Friendly staff.. Its a small restaurant but well managed and well maintained... There was a group(customers) who were playing songs amazing... (Cold weather+ Lovely songs+delicious food) amaaaaazing... I am usually not a kebab person but we loved there baba kebab with complimentary rumali roti.. Samosas were 👌👌👌👌👌👌 vada pav also 👌👌👌👌.... There saki Naka chicken Is also delicious with a different taste... Cheese pav bhaji was also delicious... Masala Thumpsup was refreshing.. Cutting chai was very nice... Definitely recommended... We are definitely going again to taste other dishes....
Nice place to hangout with friends and family.....Ginger Tea is one of the best in town
Amazing menu options, good food. The taste of Mumbai in Dubai.
This guys means business
The best Samosas i have had in my life & Sandwich in love with it
Highly recommend for indian palette ❤️
Loved the delicious thin rumali roti chicken sakinaka and baba kabab(5Aed). Lovely interior and friendly staff. Totally loved the ambience
we ordered pav bhaji from here online and believe me it was perfect. I mean all the people who are health conscious can opt to order from Mumbai hafta. It wasnt so buttery and the pavs where no so buttery too. We loved it and we would recommend this place 100%. We may soon visit the place to explore more option.
Visited this place for lunch on a weekend. With outdoor and indoor seating available, the outdoor seating is perfect for this time of the year. Placed an order for the Dahi Puri, Masala Maggi, Mutton Seekh Kabab, and Keema Pav along with Masala Thumsup and Lemon Mint Juice. The food was served quickly. The Masala Maggi is the most recommended dish here and was the best of the lot. Also, loved the Kabab and the Keema Pav. Good food that takes you back to the streets of Mumbai, this place has great value for money and is a must-visit.
Nice concept , Really interesting to go have a dine place here.
Amazing food and great ambiance. We had Keema Pav Special Lessi .
Have been passing by this place but was never able to try it as it is hardly empty especially in the winer weather but now that i have tried it I know why it was never empty. Everything we tried was good french toast, vada pav, bullet chai we also had more food but no pic we tried there kebab its delicious, its fresh, its flavorful everything it should have. Surely will go back again to try more of their options and most importantly at least for me it justify its cost very pocket friendly.
Very lively location food is very good it’s a very good joint for hangout food is very reasonable priced we tried their omelette pav , biryani everything was good
Hope you guys maintain same quality standard and hygiene at 1st preferences always.wish you GOODLUCK for you guy
Wow. What an amazing little place. Very neat and tidy, extremely clean and just the most amazing Mumbai food. You must have the keema pav, probably better than what u get in India. The owner is always present and completely hands on suggesting amazing new dishes to try.
So we found Mumbai Hafta while looking for a place to eat at midnight. The place was quite crowded for so late and that’s a sign of good food 😉.
We ordered the Kheema pav (chicken), Kheema half fry with roomali roti, Baba Kebab and a Bakwas Sprite for the drink. All the dishes were good. I felt that the mutton kheema was far better than the chicken kheema, but that’s just personal taste. The bakwas Sprite was a funky drink with kairi, ginger, lemon and chilis for a kick. The baba kebab was true value for a money as they give one skewer (4 pieces) for AED 5/-. We ended with a falooda that had fresh chopped strawberries on top!
Overall, great place to try out. They even have a 15% discount on ADCB cards! 😁
Review by my 10 year old son:
Their zabardast chicken is the spiciest chicken in the world !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Their lemon juice cooler and a lassi in the end, are the perfect combination to chill maar!
Excellent service and food quality. U can hang out with ur frds for long time.

I am actually in love with this place! Their food is so comforting and their taste is so bang on!! Pricing is so easy on pockets... ambience looks super cute... (although never had a chance to dine -in, but can guess from their photos)!! Delivery has always been on time.. so basically it ticks all the boxes for me! 👏🏼
Items tried so far:
- mutton kheema pav- amazing! Reminds me of some famous places back in India..
- vada pav- one of the best I have had in Dubai
- chicken biryani combo- this came with chicken kebabs and Gulab Jamun. Loved the portion and taste of Biryani !! Chicken pieces were enough and taste was delicious.. do try!!!
Waiting to try the remaining items on their menu ... 🤗
Right from the interior to the host.. mumbai hafta is very welcoming. The food is on point , the host is on point and the vibe definitely is on point . Amazing little place to grab some really good food !
Awesome food... reminds me of my Mumbai days... Mutton Keema Pav and Keema fried rice especially besides their misal pav, vada pav and the list goes on as I guess I tried most of the things the restaurant offers ... keep up the quality and quantity guys ... god bless u all ..!!!
500* for sure!👍 very Good

A hidden gem in Karama - this pocket-friendly cafe has everything you can ever crave for! From Maggi to Kebabs, Vada Pav to Butter chicken - get all you can under one roof .
There's plenty of paid parking spaces around the restaurant so a definitely conveniently located one.
On my visit, we tried some of their best sellers which includes the Egg Maggi, Vada Pav, Keema Pav, Bombay Sandwich, Paneer Tikka, Chicken Seekh Kebab and Pav Bhaji.
Egg Maggi: Because original maggi was too cliche, the team got this new twist to the maggi. Topped with a half fry, this bowl of maggi was pure HAPPINESS! The hot bowl of maggi was tossed with egg and lot of masala giving it the most delicious taste! A must try dish here.
Vada Pav: Who doesn't love some good spicy vada pav! Right from the first bite, you feel all the bursting flavors filled with spice! Vada pav and spice lovers this one's for you!
Keema Pav: Most authentic and delicious taste of spicy Mumbai street food - the mince was perfectly cooked with just the right amount of spice. The dish is accompanied with either Pav / Rumali Roti.
Pav Bhaji: Hands down, one of the best pav bhaji's in town! Born and brought up in Dubai, i have rarely been able to find some good places for a delectable pav bhaji. This cafe now comes under this list! If you love some finger - lickin' good and buttery pav bhaji - visit this place to satisfy all those cravings
There is nothing I didn't like about Mumbai Hafta and what really sets them apart for me on top of the cuisine the lovely outdoor seating right under the shade. This makes the place a little hard to find but once seated its an amazing setup for some evening chit chat with Mumbai Street food. Chai(4/5) and papdi chaat(5/5) is the best combo for me. We also tried the chicken pistol(5/5), chicken Chakinaka(4/5), keema fried rice(5/5) and the sweet lassi(5/5). Service was good, ambience was extra amazing outdoor and indoor was good too. Definitely a lovely upcoming outlet in Karama.

I often wonder how certain restaurants manage to stand out in a food-centric location like Karama. But it’s only when I visit these restaurants do I realise that every single place has such a unique charm, that despite their food offering being quite similar to one another, there is something special about every place that will make you want to keep trying and alternating between places day after day. We tried out one such gem in Karama over the weekend – Mumbai Hafta.
Nawaz is awesome... very warm & welcoming.. always serve you with smile.

An eatery inaugurated in the lanes of Karama, Mumbai Hafta is your go – to – place, and definitely a hidden gem. It’s colourful ambiance and awesome lights are lovely, giving you positive vibes and uplifting your mood. Their staff is very friendly and polite. I was invited here for a tasting session, and definitely enjoyed my lunch with them.
For the food and drinks, we ordered the following:
Masala Thumbsup: served chilled, this drink featured a slice of lemon and just the right amount of masalas, it provided our palates an amazing flavour of spice.
Taza orange (x2): freshly squeezed orange juice, was sweet and very refreshing.
Hafta chaas (matka): served in a matka, this chaas was so delightful, with the right consistency and was full of flavours. Definitely a must try!
Keema pav (mutton): minced mutton tossed with peas and sufficient spices, making it full of flavours and mildly spicy. Served with two soft, fresh, buttered pavs.
Paneer bhurji pav: minced paneer well cooked, and was subtly spicy and flavourful. This also, was served with two soft, fresh, buttered pavs.
Gol gappa (x2): looking drool – worthy, these gol gappas were very delicious. Crispy spheres of puri, featured a yummy filling, and topped with sev. Served with meethi chutney and green paani, the green paani was perfect, with mildly spicy flavours. Definitely a must try!
Paapdi chaat: loved this to bits! Crumbled pieces of crunchy papdi, were tossed with adequate boondi, potato, sev and topped with yogurt. The flavours were mind – blowing, and we just couldn’t stop relishing this. Undoubtedly a must try.
Veg platter: a platter mix of paneer, mushrooms and baby corn, were resting over a thin and soft roomali roti, served with salad and chutney on the side. The grilled veggies were reasonably soft, and the marination was mildly spicy and flavoursome.
Kebab biryani: served in ample quantity, this was a delectable plate. Long – grain, freshly prepared rice, topped with some chicken baba kebabs and chicken pistol kebabs. Both the kebabs were succulent, with a smooth texture, and the marination supplied appetizing flavours to the palate. The former was mildly spicy, and the latter was spicy and my favourite. Definitely a must try!
Falooda: served in a tall glass, with strawberries, almond shavings and a creamy ice cream. It was fairly sweet and tasty.
Thank you Mumbai Hafta team for hosting us. Can’t wait to come back and try other items on the menu.
I lovveddddd their kheema pao. Typically mumbaiya. Also vada pav was good, strategy was to keep vada non spicy and provide lassun spicy chutney....loved their chutneys. Kheema fried rice was okish to me...masala thumsup was good but i found it expensive at 7 dirhams. Overall as per quantity its bit expensive..still i liked the food so will try more
Each and every bite was so delicious.
My favorite was Keema Pav. One of the best place to have pav bhaji.

People in Dubai get a taste of Mumbai at this Restaurant. This high-energy restaurant with varied seating options, bright and colourful interiors offers a relaxed vibe. The menu offering authentic Mumbai food is almost a something for every palate.
For the food I had there-
Dhahi Puri- The Perfect combi of Tangy,Sweet and Sour Savour. Very good
Egg Maggi- I love Maggi in any form and this Egg twist was brilliant.
Baba Kebab Spicy- Mutton mince kebab very delicious.
The Mutton Kheema with Pav- is worth a try.
Chicken Seekh Kabab- tasted classic and good.
Sultan Chicken Biryani- well-balanced flavours and textures. Loved it.
The Lassi was top Class, super creamy and thick.
For the Drinks we also had, Lemon Mint Cooler and Masala Thumbs Up.
The Falooda was a robust of flavours.
Loved everything here.
Good food is met with impeccable service by articulate staff which contributes to the dining experience. Mr Shaheer and Mr Nawaz made sure the experience was comfortable and welcoming.
A Must Must try when your in Karama.
The snacks are delicious but the people operating the cafe are just great guys.
A name so catchy that it gets you intrigued and interiors so quirky that it reminds you of a corner shop restaurant in Mumbai. Well everyone knows what hafta means and here its more of the hafta we receive than give in the form of some awesome Mumbai street food
I was here one weekday afternoon and thoroughly enjoyed the food. We started with Nimboo pani and Masala Thumbs up, drinks that you would see in Indian street eateries. A forgotten drink, the Masala Thumbs Up was once a rage and tastes equally good now.
We had the Vada Pav, Samosa, Veg Maggi and Chicken Frankie. These snacks are authentic and brilliant. I am a die hard vada pav fan and this one did not disappoint me.
While the street food was outstanding, we also tried the Chicken Sheekh kebabs and Chicken Biryani which were decent. The sheekh kababs could have been a little more juicy.
Cute and colorful place located in the heart of karama . Not that old , but already making its mark for the amazing food . Been here for lunch during the week day . We had Seekh Kebab, Teja Omlette , Keema pav, chicken biryani . Dessert we had falooda, For the drinks it was Masala coke and special chaas. Service was pretty quick . Loved everything we had here , excellent presentation and taste .seekh Kebab was a delish every bite , juicy and flavorful . Keema was divine and the pav was super fresh too . Teja Omlette is another delicacy I would love to have again . Chicken biryani was mild but yummy. Masala coke was excellent, chaas was slightly spicy but very good . Finally the dessert falooda made our meal complete and content . Overall a must try place for some great food at reasonable price . Not that all , winters are coming and they have a lovely outdoor seating too which would be a great experience with lovely food .
I must say this restaurant serves the best vadapau and tea in Dubai.. we have been to many restaurants howver nothing can beat Mumbai hafta.. awesum service, very humble manager n great prices .. small but a cool place to chill out with frens!
Haven't been to the place yet, but ordered a few times. The chicken frankie is out of this world! The closest taste to Mumbai food that i have gotten in Dubai.
Bhai kabab is another must try option. Very good staff, everything 5* about this place.
Pocket friendly restaurant, I got the delivery before estimated time.
Ordered-
1. Keema Pav- Tasty
2.Sultan biryani special- quantity was really good, Biryani rice was ok but chicken pieces could have been better.
![Zomato]( "Recensione")
This place is relatively new and for sure soon going to rule on people's belly.
The ambiance takes you to a chilling and happening mood with funky wall art and hanging lights through the ceiling. They have spacious indoor seating as well as outside.
The food is finger licking good. We tried Mutton Biryani which has perfect blend of spices and meat was cooked so well that it was tearing like a silk thread.
The Keema had all the attention as the aroma of spices in the Keema was tempting. We loved filling our pav with Keema and topped it with Chopped onions served separately.
The Seekh Kebab were so tender and full-flavored.
For the drink, we had Jeera Soda which we tried for the first time and fell in love with. It was refreshing with perfect blend of spice and sweet.
In dessert, we were served falooda ice cream in a stylish glass which has layers of vermacil, kulfi and 2 scoop of ice cream.
In the end, we had the best cutting Chai, Mumbai style is small glasses served with Nan khatai which were so crisp.
Overall, our experience at this eatry was pleasant and we enjoyed eating here. The service is great and all dishes are economical. We are definitely going back there.
Dint get to try the food at this place yet as we had visited this place after dinner but really liked the cold coffee and the ambience of this place. Located in the heart of karama with a lot of competitors in and around the area , they have managed to get a really good feel to it with some nice outdoor seating and good bolly music. Looking to visit this place again soon.
Amazing ambience Amazing food. The Dahi poori and the Bhel poori were brilliant. The Pav Bhaji and the Paneer pepper fry was too good. They stick to the proper desi food taste. Having to reach here by around 8pm listening to the jamming sessions by the everyday customers the whole area is of brilliant vibe for relaxing. Im definitely visiting here many more times again. Hi5 to the manager whos really friendly too.
Way to go!
It’s a must try restaurant 🤩 yummy food 🥘 awesome ambience & friendly staff !
Pipping hot food with delicious aroma....love everything that is served here ... the place is aesthetically beautiful with each corner picture worthy... the kheema pav .. chicken pistol and the lassi are my all time favourite...highly recommend this place.. :))
This is also a must try place in Karama. I love this local Mumbai pav combination very much. I have been there twice now. I just love the pav combination keema, plain pav, teja omelet, panner pav, masala tea.
Super cool, funky interiors. Small cozy space, fastest service, lovely courteous staff. Food so tasty, quantity okay-ish tho. Cant wait for the weather to get better and try some bambai food on their outdoor seats.
Great food with super hospitable staff and owner.
Value for money for sure. Definitely worth a visit for Mumbai style street food. Vada Pai and Chai are highly recommended.
