Mumbai in Swansea

Such a delicious meal tonight at the Mumbai. Great friendly staff and lovely atmosphere. Such an affordable meal. Plenty of parking right outside.

The Mumbai is a gem. Mohammed the owner is so welcoming and friendly. His Dad is in the kitchen cooking the authentic Indian cuisine. The food is excellent. The prices are more than reasonable. Why fight for parking elsewhere, when you can rock up here, park easily , and enjoy a really delicious dinner, in a very comfortable and well run restaurant.

Amazing Sunday buffet perfect family meal out followed buy a walk along the beach. Thank you for a lovely experience.

Excellent food, service and a nicely re- renovated building.

Derek was amazing really did make our meal.

The usual buffet fare, generally good, however some dishes were cold on this occasion

Quality food and great service as always.

Visité aquí el martes por la noche, el lugar no estaba ocupado, pero el camarero no nos hizo sentir particularmente bienvenidos, de hecho me sentí como una molestia para él! La comida era decepcionante en cuanto al sabor, ya que el curry que tenía se suponía que era picante, pero no lo era, pero mi compañero dijo que su Biryani era muy bueno. El gran punto positivo fue que las porciones eran muy generosas

Authentic, delicious, and abundant! This Indian buffet deserves every star... Food Quality: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The dishes were fresh, flavorful, and authentic. The variety of curries and rice was excellent, with a great balance of vegetarian and non-vegetarian options. 2. Service: The staff were attentive, friendly, and quick to refill dishes or offer assistance. 3. Ambience ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐: The atmosphere was warm, clean, and inviting. 4. Value for Money⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐: The buffet offered a great selection at a reasonable price, considering the quality and variety of the food.

Would return often if I lived in the area. Great service, excellent food.

The food was nice 👍, but the wait time was too much, had to wait more than an hour or so to get what i ordered,i was starving 😅.

Was away for the weekend and came across this restaurant. The food was excellent and the staff were friendly and made you feel welcome. We even returned the following day to try out the Sunday buffet. There was plenty of choice, and the food was piping hot. Will definitely be returning when visiting Swansea again.

Great restaurant, lovely atmosphere lovely people.

Had a beautiful meal. Lovely friendly vibe, great service and the food was banging!👌🏼 Will definitely be back soon!

Una pequeña joya escondida de una zona de vacaciones muy concurrida. Fui por la noche con mi esposa e hijo. El restaurante está bien decorado y cómodo. El personal muy agradable bien resultó informativo y nada es demasiado problema. La comida en sí era A 1 en apariencia, cantidad y calidad Tuvimos los poappofoms de siempre para empezar Dos de nosotros tuvimos pollo Madala encantadora salsa de pollo bien cocido para morir para Mi hijo tenía una opción vegetariana que dijo que era A 1 Un poco en el lado caro pero la calidad y cantidad era insuperable

Gran personal, muy amable. Pedido 4 kormas 1 dansak 1 masala y varios lados. Apenas 2 de las carnes korma fueron hervidas ya que la masticabilidad se parecía al dinosaurio en el anuncio chewit de los años 80. Aparte de eso sin duda volvería una y otra vez.

La comida y el servicio era de primera clase y siempre lo ha sido. Hemos estado muchas veces a lo largo de los años y sentimos que el personal es amigos. Un montón de aparcamiento y a solo un minuto a pie del paseo marítimo.

What a 1st class welcome great staff very helpfull and very freindly

A unique restaurant and the staff is distinguished and helpful 👍🏼

Good atmosphere, food tasted good, friendly staff

Great food and great staff, can’t fault it! Become a regular customer in Mumbai now

Superb buffet, great choice. Lovely staff who went above and beyond to make us welcome. Thank you!

Always excellent for Sunday buffet, great staff, friendly service and amazing food

Great restaurant, serving awesome food by excellent staff - well recommended! We will definitely return!

Excellent food and service. Highly recommended.

Absolutely fabulous, food was excellent. My husband said it was the best prawn purée he has ever tasted and all our meals were delicious, the portions were huge. The decor in the restaurant was beautiful. The service was good and staff very friendly. Will definitely be back.

Best Indian meal by far for years. The taste of flavours in the meal were delicious.

Family and I called into the restaurant for a Sunday Buffet. The restaurant had an excellent choice of meat and vegetable curries. Very clean environment with friendly and courteous staff. The buffet was fresh and regularly replenished by the kitchen staff. A special mention to the manager Ali who is excellent at his job at front of house. He meets and greets all customers and nothing was too much trouble for him and his team. A*

First time here and it won't be the last. Great meal and fantastic service. Very friendly and welcoming

The restaurant is cool and classy yet really comfortable and easy going. Plenty of room on the big tables as the layout of the room is well thought out. I was a little worried as I’d not been there before and I’m a wheelchair user. I had plenty of room to manoeuvre and sit at the table so I needn’t have worried. We started off with drinks. We all had a refreshing pint of lime and soda and was offered a menu. We had a popadom and chutney tray to share as a starter. There were 3 of us and they gave us 6 popadoms. And about 5 or 6 different dips. Well that was a fab sharing starter as we chose our mains. With a little help from the exceptionally warm friendly staff we negotiated what kind of meals and how spicy we should go and settled for 3 different meals so that we could each have a share of each others. We only ordered 2 different portions of rice as we thought that would be enough and one Garlic Naan bread. My daughter ordered a prawn vindaloo something or other curry, my son a lamb vindaloo curry and I had (at the recommendation of the waiter) a chicken tika saag naga … oh my … I must say the chef was amazing, all 3 mains were so nice. They were all pretty spicey (but we do like spicy as we spend a lot of time in Thailand) but they were definitely not too spicy. The naan bread was so good and he said tge chef makes everything himself. It was close but everyone though my main was maybe the best. But, like I sad it was close. Everything was delicious and we were stuffed. It all came to about £60 so we obviously left a tip. We were talking about it and planning our next trip there all the way home. We went there for my son’s birthday but we definitely won’t be waiting for his next one 😉

Just left the restaurant New Years Eve first visit certainly won't be the last.Food was excellent service was superb and made to feel most welcome really enjoyed

Lovely atmosphere, laid back and easy going with top notch decor and ambience. The staff are attentive and informed and nothing is too much trouble, Waz is an absolute class act, friendly and personable and respectful to all dietary needs and allergies. The food was excellent and prepared in full view in front of you in the open kitchen. As a party of four, the final bill, with drinks, was more than reasonable. Easily the best Indian restaurant in Swansea.

Went here with my father and sister for my birthday meal and it was a great choice. There was easy access for wheelchair too. We were greeted with very nice and helpful staff. We didn’t really know what to order but with help from the staff they brought out delicious meals. We said we liked spicy and they delivered! Tingly lips and lovely aftertaste. Thank you very much and we will see you again!

Really enjoyed the Sunday buffet here, staff are always really nice and welcoming, price needs a little work especially for Juniors.

Great food and excellent service. Will go back in the future.

Absolutely tremendous food, venue and friendly staff. Faultless

Probably the worst Indian restaurant we have been in and we have been in a few over the years…….. Finding ourselves in Swansea we decide to have a meal out and go looking for an Indian Restaurant and come across the Mumbai Restaurant and reading the good reviews on Trip Advisor I though why not give it a go …….. Should have carried onto to Mumbles and go to the one on the Main Road of Oystermouth……. We entered the restaurant and was quite impressed with the surroundings and general mood of the place and was shown to our table straight away and as there was only 6 other people there this was easy enough. We had the food and drinks menu and on perusal my wife was impressed to see that they served cocktails and ordered a “Sex on the Beach” but when it came it was probably the smallest cocktail we have seen. Less of a “Sex On The Beach and more of a “Peck On The Promenade”….. We ordered the usual 4 Poppadum’s and chutney tray for £8.00 a little expensive we thougt and really only the mint ratha, onions and the Mango chutney was actually edible as the red spicy chutney and the congelled coconut red stuff was not palatable. The starter of Onion Bahji was very nice and a large size portion (4) and was quite nice indeed so we were very hopeful. Then the problem started when the order of Chicken Pasanda and another of Handi Chicken arrived and the waiter said that he “thinks” that this is the Handi and this is the Passanda as they looked the same…….. On putting these down with the chips and rice I could see exactly what he meant as they looked identical and I have twins so I know all about identical or different….. Now I like a butter chicken and my wife likes the mild fruity passanda and on tasting the food we were surprised to see that they were exactly the same and I mean EXACTLY the same….Both meals were the buttery chicken that I ordered and no wonder he could not tell the difference himself. I called over the head waiter and politely informed him that both of these meals were the same and his reply of “I am sure they are not Sir”……… Well they look identical, taste identical and both even had cashew nuts in them and both tasted exactly the same and even on a blind taste I could not tell the difference….. We have Passanda almost at every restaurant we go to and this was definitely not the usual sweet mild curry with almonds we have and it definitely does not come with a buttery taste…... THEY WERE THE SAME !!!!! Then came the deal cruncher of the night as his reply of “ I am sorry Sir but I have no control over the kitchen and if they said its two separate meals then they are two separate meals even though they look the same and If you want another one we can but it will be the same as that as it’s a Passanda” I had the impression that he was afraid to go back and tell the chef as he then said the “Manager is not here till later I am sorry”………. I guess that the “BUFFET NIGHT” they host on a Sunday will be a piece of cake for the chef if all the curries taste and look the same and only have different names as he can cook a batch and just spoon it out into different pots…… I think I will give Sunday a miss. So as we were on a time schedule I decided to eat mine and leave the other one and my wife just ate the Saag Aloo, rice and chips instead of the “Passanda”. As a note on the meal we were given I would say that it lacked any real depth of flavor and was very similar to a gravy for a Sunday dinner in both looks and temperature. A poor spiced curry and would be better served over a chips from a fish and chip take away for a couple of pound a pot. As for the Passanda ….. I really wouldn’t know !!!!!!! Then on finishing up the meal we were expecting to have the passanda taken off the bill but no we were actually charged for that as well. We decided that we would not make a fuss and to simply pay the bill in full of course less our usual tip and to vow to never darken the doors of the Mumbai again. And to top it all off we were not shown out of the restaurant like the previous customers and basically treated badly for us to dare ask for the correct meal and some common curtesy. The motto of the story is simply that despite doing your homework on a place to eat it’s really how they perform on the night that you go there that we can judge it on, sadly on this occasion we were let down. Do yourself a favour and carry on down to Mumbles and try the Indian on the front at Oystermouth as I know that I will be doing it next time. PS. The one star I gave is for the decor of the place as it offered so much and yet it was all fur coat and no ......... You get the picture.....!!!!!!!

Excellent food and service Well done Mumbai

This used to be our favourite resteraunt. We took our son and girlfriend there for his birthday and were quite frankly disappointed. What's happened to you! The server couldn't care less, dirty glass, no ambience , and what was that mildew smell? The food was lovely but lacked samosas etc. we spent less than an hour there. Didn't stuck around for desert and coffee.

*My recent visit to Mumbai Indian Kitchen was nothing short of a harrowing nightmare for my entire family. I feel compelled to share the complete truth of our experience to raise awareness and call for immediate action.* *The service at Mumbai Indian Kitchen was deplorable. Not only were staff members unresponsive and inattentive, but they also subjected my family to racially discriminatory remarks and offensive behavior. To make matters worse, we were pushed and verbally abused, with restaurant staff instructing us to leave the premises. This aggression was directed at my wife, two small children, my father and me, leaving us traumatized and deeply hurt.* *The already terrible experience was compounded by the dismal quality of the food. It was evident that little care or attention was given to the preparation of the dishes. Our meals were tasteless, poorly cooked, and far below the basic standards of any restaurant.* * In addition to the appalling behavior, I discovered a mosquito inside my food, which is not only unsanitary but also dangerous for diners. It's unfathomable that such negligence can exist in a food establishment.* *The staff's disruptive and inappropriate behavior further contributed to our anguish. Their loud and disrespectful conduct made an already distressing situation unbearable.* *My family and I should never have been subjected to such a horrifying experience. We were customers, expecting nothing more than a pleasant meal in a safe and welcoming environment. Instead, we encountered racism, verbal abuse, poor service, food of substandard quality, hygiene issues, and a complete lack of respect for basic customer rights. also after this happen they don't want to give me bill because they know now i will doing complain about them.* *I implore the management of Mumbai Indian Kitchen to take immediate and comprehensive action to address these grave issues. They must conduct anti-racism training for their staff, implement stringent hygiene and quality control measures, and ensure that such incidents are never repeated.* *In summary, our visit to Mumbai Indian Kitchen was an excruciating ordeal marked by racism, verbal abuse, deplorable service, subpar food quality, hygiene issues, and disruptive staff. I urge everyone to reconsider dining here until the restaurant addresses these severe problems and takes the necessary steps to ensure the safety, dignity, and enjoyment of all patrons. also i include some picture of proof.*

We enjoyed the good Indian cooking in our local restaurant for a family gathering recently. We all enjoyed our meals, from eg. Chicken Shaslik to King Prawn Dhansak, and the 3 year old with us enjoyed her child's meal too. The service was excellent. We shall go there again.

Loved the food, family run restaurant, very friendly and excellent service, highly recommend.

I don't normally leave reviews, however I was very impressed with my delicious meal . The service was promot and very polite. And the decor is very stylish

Excellent food and very good ambience.

We used to visit the Sunday buffet regularly before the place caught fire and everything was good. We visited this Sunday buffet and was very disappointed and will not go to the Mumbai restaurant again, Chicken Tikka masalla was tasteless, Chicken Jalfrezi was much too spicy as was the rest of the dishes,at £16.95 per head it was overpriced, poor value and I had diahorea for the following 2days, never again I will stick with the Anarkarli,one of the best in Swansea. The Mumbai was very quiet compared to how it used to be on what should've been a busy evening on the Swansea air show, which says it all. Never again.

Absolutely outstanding. Food was exceptional as was the welcome and service. Thank you for an excellent meal.

Our first visit today and what a great meal! Decor was lovely but food was just delicious. We even enjoyed the salad that came with the starters. I had the samosas for starter which were lovely and fresh, my daughter enjoyed the onion baji. The king prawn saag I had for main was so full of flavour with fresh ingredients and lots of prawns. The staff were lovely and friendly too. The restaurant was less than half full at 7.30 on a Friday night which we found odd as it was so good and we will definitely be back!

Delicious food, a calm, quiet atmosphere and friendly helpful staff. Always a great experience.

Smart venue. Good service. Good varied menu. Dearer than most India restaurants. We would go again

Haven’t visited this restaurant since before the pandemic, and they had a bad fire. We called in for a takeaway last night and the food was superb. Beautiful flavours and large portions. I had a mushroom masala with saag rice (delicious). My husband had chicken byriani which he also enjoyed. The staff were extremely friendly when we were waiting. Will definitely be visiting again very soon.

Stunning food..lovely staff..worth every penny

Thought we would try this place out whilst on holiday, very impressed, lovely food and service, we ordered a takeaway and collected, sensible price and discount for collection, good portion sizes. I had chicken Biriyani which was one of the best i've eaten.

Buffet food not very hot but apart from that tasty, lovely atmosphere and superb service

My parents (who live in Swansea) had wanted to take us (family of 3) to Mumbai restaurant for a family meal to celebrate spending the Easter holidays together. I'm so glad they did! Stylish decor, lovely welcoming service and brilliant food. Each dish was really tasty (we tried some new, some familiar to us) and even the most simple naan bread was perfect. Two other tables were clearly regular customers there too. Can't wait to go again next holidays!

Best Indian takeaway in Swansea in my opinion. Food has been spot on every single time. And I've been visiting the place for almost 17 years.

Lovely place. Friendly accomodating staff.

Deeply disappointed with lack of taste on the tikka massala Qty of chicken was plenty full. Staff more than polite clean and tidy restaurant. Unfortunately not what I was hoping for.

Great personal experience from all the staff.great prices. Girlfriends birthday Huge portions and we all(6),left nicely full. Kobe sends his love and thanks for a wonderful play around😂👍👍 Will be back soon.

Very nice food, top service as always, a great family run restaurant that has been going a long time. Very nice open kitchen recently done.

First time in this restaurant and I was very impressed- the decor is fantastic- very clean and well presented Couldn’t fault the food it was delicious Staff all well presented and friendly

We took a group of 14 friends here and it was lovely. Friendly staff, beautiful interior, clean facilities and the food was great. Would recommend.

Excellent evening in all. Can't fault anything. Well done to everyone.

Food was lovely and staff were very friendly. Definitely go again.

Just brilliant Staffs amazing ✨✨✨

Very well-presented restaurant, newly refurbished. The food was very tasty and plentiful, not a hugely ambitious menu, but all the favourites with a few more unusual dishes. Good staff and although it was quiet when we went, 6pm on a Sunday, I'm told it gets very busy, so probably worth booking at peak times

I haven’t been here for a long time, during which we had the pandemic and then it was closed after a fire. Anyway, the newly refurbished restaurant is vastly improved. The decor is lovely and the food even better. Probably the best Indian restaurant in Swansea, so if you haven’t been- go! The food was piping hot and the portions.so generous that we took some home with us. Topped with great service, it thoroughly deserves these 5 stars

Very lovely food and great and friendly staff

Tasy food and great service. Thanks will be back

One of the best Indian restaurants in Swansea

One of the best restaurant in Swansea. Staff are very nice and friendly.

Frankly, if you can find a better Xmas Day Indian dining experience, let me know by email. Meals have always been good at Mumbai Blackpill, but to have such a gorgeous banquet-to-the-table amidst relaxed staff and happy patrons is a genuine delight. It is almost hypnotic watching Dad cook in the newly-refurbed open kitchen. Highly recommended.

I love Mumbai, the food is very nice and the staff are very friendly

Fantastic Restaurant. Very family friendly but also very high standard of food and interior. Good for a date night and early kids dinner. Will go again!

Wanted to visit. All the signs and website said it was open but it's being gutted and refurbished. Poor communication.

We went on Christmas night for dinner, the place was full, the food was very tasty, just a little bit cold.

I've been visiting Mumbai Indian Restaurant with my family members for a few years now and they never disappoint. The food is gorgeous, the staff are professional and friendly and the atmosphere and decor is beautiful. I will be coming back every time I'm on Swansea, I cannot recommend enough.

OVER PRICED FOOD .. SALTY AND OILY Fishcakes were tiny, over salted and like bullets. Sea Bass(?) was on the bone and so bony it was dangerous, small bones in the sauce made a health hazard. It was not described on menu as being a whole fish. Sauce was tasty. Onion bhajis were tiny and below average. Chicken tikka masala was oily and taste was average at best. Mushroom rice was good. All in all overpriced for a poor meal. Won't be using them again.

Had a lovely Indian meal there last night. Lovely surroundings. And the service was excellent. And really friendly staff

lovely meal. great staff . Will be going back again very soon.

Lovely tasty food, attentive and pleasant staff. Reasonably priced.

Lovely takeaway, ready on time and very tasty. Reasonably priced.

Great welcome very comfortable surroundings, lovely food with great service

Visited here last night and I had the best chicken tikka biriyani ever!! Service and food were both outstanding!! I highly recommend!

As an Indian I can say that by far the worst ever Indian food experience. That's 2 portions of Paneer Tikka (absolutely tasteless & disgrace on the name of Indian food). Please stop fooling people who really wants to taste the real Indian food. Total waste of money 💰

Very good restaurant. Owner/ chef is well behaved. Owners grandson ; who runs the front is a lovely simple young man. Food was excellent.... Warm and tasty.

Nice place to dine and good quality food

Delicious food. Friendly staff. Lovely place for a meal.

Perfect food, great prices, warm and friendly staff. We ate at Mumbai for my Dads birthday, everyone had a range of different starters, mains, meat, veggie and vegan options. It was superb, top banter, friendly and helpful staff, great prices ! Couldn’t recommend it enough.

Great food, excellent service, good value

Quiet tucked away restaurant, lovely different curries, friendly service

Nice food, very helpful and friendly staff. Thanks

Sat outside after a ride in clyne woods and the staff could not have been kinder! Food was also amazing! Whole group left with clean plates and full bellys.

Decent indian food and they serve big portions.

local Indian restaurant which is well established , i have not visited for a while it is a popular venue. have not heard any poor reports about the restaurant being in the vicinity recently has triggered a response .

Great food and ambience. Staff was excellent. Only thing missing in menu is some authentic Mumbai street food.

We ordered a takeaway from here a few weeks ago and went to pick it up. I had high expectations after the excellent reviews I read on here. To say we were disappointed is an understatement. I ordered a chicken balti and it had no flavour and the naan bread was rock hard. It's literally the worse Indian I have ever had.

Best curry in swansea.... Had 2 meals in a week, can't fault it. It was so nice couldn't resist in having another one. The service was great especially from the manager Waz. They will be providing takeaways during our second lockdown. 5 stars from me guys keep up the good work. Can't wait for my next fix.

I ordered a takeaway for 4 people this August and was a bit surprised that the person taking to order over the phone couldn't tell me the cost. I didn't have a current menu to hand or else I could have worked it out. Anyway when I picked the meal up I was surprised at the high price, especially when I opened the cartons at home. The curries were absolutely swimming in water and were extremely poor value for money. Perhaps the chef was having a bad night, whatever I shan't be bothering this restaurant again.

Another delicious meal We regularly visit the Mumbai with our family and friends for a guaranteed delicious meal served in a beautiful restaurant setting .The meals are always cooked to perfection and well presented by professional and attentive staff . I am a vegetarian and my daughter is coeliac but we are well catered for and if we have any queries staff are always very knowledgeable & on hand to advise Well done Mumbai ....definitely the best Indian restaurant in Swansea
