Jimmy Boy Restaurant & Cake Shop Fort

Had a lovely experience dining at Jimmy Boy, a charming Parsi restaurant tucked away in the heart of Mumbai. I visited with my family, and from the moment we stepped in, the cozy, old-world vibe made us feel right at home. The menu offers an authentic taste of traditional Parsi cuisine, and every dish we tried was rich in flavor and perfectly cooked. We loved the chicken Farcha, mutton kheema and of course, their signature dhansak—comforting, hearty, and full of nostalgic taste. Apart from the main dishes, their bakery section is a delightful surprise. We picked up some fresh mawa cakes, plum cake, and pastries, all of which were soft, flavorful, and made with great attention to detail. Tiramisu is must try as dessert !! Don’t miss that… The staff was friendly and attentive, making sure we had a pleasant experience. Overall, Jimmy Boy is a must-visit for anyone who wants to explore Mumbai’s Parsi culinary heritage. Whether you're a first-timer or a regular, it never disappoints. Perfect for a relaxed family meal with a side of tradition!

My first visit for a quick evening snacks while coming back from work. They don't have regular South Indian snacks but mostly non veg snacks. I took a veg Paalak Paneer patties which was good. Also took a couple of pastries as take away. Since it was evening time I got car parking near by.

If you’re craving an authentic taste of Parsi cuisine in Mumbai, Jimmy Boy at Kala Ghoda is a must-visit. Nestled in the heart of South Mumbai’s heritage district, this charming old-school eatery offers a nostalgic vibe with its colonial-style decor and homely ambiance. The star of the menu is undoubtedly the Berry Pulao and Chicken Cutlet — both packed with bold flavors and cooked to perfection. Their Dhansak is rich, comforting, and just the right balance of spice and sweetness. Don’t miss out on the Lagan nu Custard for dessert; it’s the perfect sweet ending to a hearty meal.

While the place can get a bit crowded during lunch hours, the food more than makes up for the wait. Overall, Jimmy Boy is a delightful dive into Mumbai’s Parsi culinary heritage—perfect for both first-timers and seasoned food lovers.

Delicious food and good service. Parking could be an issue. The berry pulao was soo good! Pattice was good. Cakes are soo good. Dhanshak was good too. Cheese toast was nice. Icecream soda can't go wrong!

We ordered Butter Chicken and Tandoori Roti, along with Cold Coffee and the Balanji Raspberry Soda. The Butter Chicken was excellent in terms of taste, but the quantity was very less—definitely not enough for two people. The Raspberry Soda tasted like cough syrup and honestly, it’s not worth Rs. 70. When we arrived, the waiter refused to let us sit at a larger table, saying it was reserved for bigger groups, even though the restaurant wasn’t crowded. After requesting him, he finally allowed us to sit there. This just shows how money-minded the place is. They don't seem to value their customers much. Once we sat down, they rushed us to place the order almost immediately. We barely had time to look through the menu properly. It’s clear that they’re more concerned about quick customer turnover to boost their profits rather than providing a good dining experience. This is definitely not what you'd expect from such an old and well-known restaurant in Mumbai.

I would literally rate this place a 11/10 for food. If you are a snob, please don't go, If you are like me and love food, just order Mutton Dhansak and I assure you that first bite will change your world. The food is legendary. The apple pie is a plate of beautiful creation.

One of the iconic but underrated restaurant in Mumbai serving Parsi dishes with the old school charm. We tried Chicken dhansak ,patra nu macchi ,which was excellent and made from fresh fish.In dessert we tried the signature caramel custard followed by Walnut cake
