Hello Guppy is an exquisite Japanese restaurant in BKC. Well, what's new about Japanese restaurants in Mumbai? There are quite a few, right? But you know what sets Hello Guppy apart - it's their limited and well-curated menu and their quirky theme.
Eccentric, off the book decor with a proper Japanese influence is a sight worth seeing. From pop culture wall murals to hanging Japanese stuffed toys to Japanese anime playing on the TV, this place surely screams Japan to you. The tables have an inbuilt pinball machine adding to the charm of this place. Well lit, colourful and with some funky music, it has its own spunk.
The service is prompt and the crew knows exactly what constitutes which dish. They give some killer recommendations.
The food here was simply exceptional. Everything that we tried was a class apart. Proper Japanese food with some crazy cocktails made it amazing.
We ordered the following:
Avocado Cucumber Cream Cheese Sushi: 5/5
This dish was spot on. The creamy texture of the cheese with the freshness of avocado and cucumbers was delightful.
Japanese Vegetable Sushi: 4/5
Traditional sushi served with ginger and wasabi.
Mushroom Takikomi Rice: 5/5
Creamy umame twist of mushrooms with fresh vegetables is a must try.
Rock Corn Tempura: 3/5
Baby corn covered in tempura batter and fried to a perfect crisp.
Mount Fuji: 4/5
Power packed with vodka, peach schnapps, passion fruit and apples
Berry Pop: 5/5
A wine ice lolly, OMG!
This place is a must visit for anyone who wants to try Japanese food. I would definitely say Hello to Guppy again and again!
