One of my favorite places to be at, you feel right at home! Starting from Hodor at the door, to the huge posters of filmy villians, this place is love. Can't see gabbar (my favorite) from downstairs, but that shouldn't be an issue for most people! Food aside, my absolute favorite thing about this place, is the menu! It is insane! Hat's off to Aditya and Varsha for having come up with something so ingenious! I'm bad with movie references, but that menu still has me cracking up. For people who watch movies, the menu card in itself is worth a visit. The biggest compliment I can give a restaurant is- it feels like home, and this place, is the best pick-me-up a bihari like me can get so far away from home. I've had littis at various places, but nothing comes close to the litti here! Served with chokha and a choice of either ghooghni/chicken/mutton. It is a dish you CANNOT miss! My personal recommendation would be have it with the mutton, I'm extremely choosy about my mutton, but the mutton here will leave you wanting for more! This was the second time I tried Pork momos, the first time somewhere else had been a disappointment! At D'hungry Mogambo, the pork Momos were redeemed, as I quickly gobbled them up, with instructions from Aditya- you're supposed to put the whole Momo in your mouth and let it melt!("Biting into it is blasphemy" 😂) Same goes for the Mutton Momos! I was outvoted and couldn't order the chicken momos this time around, but the Chicken momos are soo tasty, reminds me of the first momos I had in Sikkim! I'll probably go back another time and have another plate. Another dish that you simply can't miss, is the pork ribs, it is by far the best ribs I've had! I had no qualms licking my fingers, my plate, and my friend's plate! We had the ribs for lunch, and came back again to have two more plates at dinner! Intense cravings for ribs at the moment as well. It was perfection served on a plate, it was evenly done, and a burst of flavor, can't get better than this. Trying to even describe it is unfair! A dish you just have to try! I have advertised it to everyone I have come across since trying it. The food is so good, that despite the fact that we had friends joining us, we still couldn't hold back, and ended up eating two plates of ribs before they could join us! Another dish that I tried was the Datshi, it's a dish from Bhutan, it was a very interesting combination. You start out expecting it to be cheesy, which it definitely is. But it is also spicy, and it makes a beautiful combination, unfortunately I let it sit for too long Midway through the mean, I'll have to order this another time, to do it some justice! I am not a dessert person, but we ordered a Yomari, I hope I spelled it right, it's a lost Tibetan dessert, with lots of chocolates and coconut fillings. I think the cover is probably rice flour, correct me if I'm wrong. I never have more than 2 bites of dessert, but despite being full I ate quite a bit of this very tempting dish! With hosts like Aditya and Varsha always guiding you, with the food, and making you feel at home, it is undoubtedly my favorite place. Authentic food, the most entertaining menu, and great hosts, what more can you expect from a place! P.S. was too excited about the food to be able to click too many pictures. A compilation from my various visits.

Came here to satiate my craving for Litti chokha but was blown away by the brilliant Pork Ribs. It’s so tender and juicy that in a matter of one week I’ve visited it thrice and ordering two servings each time. Although the limelight was stolen from it, Litti chokha dipped in ghee would certainly be one of the best I’ve ever had. Another dish I had was Pork blood sausages, a Bhutanese dish having flavours of the hills. Yomari (shown in picture) is the only dessert I had. It’s a Tibetan steamed pudding having chocolate and dry fruits filling in it. After Pork ribs and Litti it took me a lot of effort to finish it. Last but not the least the ambience is Jhakaas. The walls are filled with quirky Bollywood dialogues like Dhondu, just chill and Pushpa, I hate tears. Even the menu card is fun to look at.

Came across this Bollywood dialogue theme restaurant through a friend... And oh my what a place this is, absolutely in love with their ambience and Food We had their litti Chokkha, Veg Thukpa, Yomari, Chicken Steamed Momo Litti Chokkha : I've tried Litti Chokka at many places in Pune and outside of Pune but these are by far the best one I had in very long time.. Musttry Veg Thukpa : a Soupy Broth Noodles with lot vegies amazing Chicken Steamed Momos : I can easily bet on that these are the best Momos. PERIOD! Yomari : a Gorkhali Delicasy made with rice Dumplings stuffed with Nutella and dry fruits.. Yum yum.. So delicious.. Trust me This is the best place to try if you like Bhutanese, Bihari and Nepalese food...

Every bite reminded me of home. The chef came out and had a chat with us and she was so humble and nice. It was their last day yesterday and its such a shame people don’t get to eat their food anymore. I really hope they re-open soon cause i cannot wait to eat this quality of good food again. Absolutely amazing food and service! If they re-open, please do yourselves a favour and visit it once, you will not regret it!

It's sad that I was only able to try this restaurant on its last day. I wish there were more places like these. Incredible food, friendly atmosphere, exceptional service and innovative ambience. The variety of food they have is not easily found anywhere in Pune. Hope one day it makes a comeback! Thanks for a memorable Sunday.

Tried the Gorkha styled Pork Rib which were juicy, tender, and hands down the best dish we had there. Expected a little bigger size of the portion though. Next was the Pork momos. The owner was very helpful and suggested that we wait a minute, and then bite into the first momo for the taste. And after that, to gulp down each momo as a whole to truly enjoy it. It was delicious with that melt in the mouth feeling! Another dish you should try out here. We wanted to try the Mutton Masala with the Parathas. Were also keen on ordering the Litti Chokha which we've never eaten before. But the owner rightly informed us, that both the dishes may be a little too heavy for us. So we went with the latter. He patiently explained the entire process of how to savor the Litti Chokha. It was good. Requires an acquired taste I'm guessing. Also the Mutton which accompanied it would be great as an individual dish. On the side, we had the Passion fruit ice tea, and the Chaas which were equally refreshing. The ambience was really interesting and we had our laughs at the hilarious posters. The menu was interesting too with some movie dialogues, but was a bit confusing. We knew beforehand the dishes we wanted to try out after reading the recommended ones here in this group. But do visit them soon, if you want to savor their Bihari, Tibetan, and Nepalese cuisines, before they close this Sunday- 21st April. Wishing them all the best for their future endeavours :)

Well, before they closed temporarily this restaurant I was lucky to try their Tibetan, Nepalese cuisines. As name tells, a bollywood themed restaurant which has various cutouts / posters of different bollywood characters and dialogues. This will definitely give you some entertaining bollywood time...

I have been trying to order food for home delivery from your restaurant for a long time now but it is always closed for delivery. The menu looks so good and it is really disappointing to find your place not accepting home delivery orders. Please start home delivery
