“ I was rather excited to visit Garde Manger. It had always been one of those places which I had seen often and wondered about, but had never visited. I shouldn't have visited it, if I am being very honest. The myth of it was better in my head. I ordered the Arrabiata Whole-wheat Pasta, with baby corn, mushroom, broccoli and zucchini. It was blander than anything I have ever eaten. The way that Arrabiata is expected is spicy but saucy, since tomatoes are used. Instead, this felt like eating just plain pasta, despite having the sauce. The vegetables and mushroom were all undercooked, which was disappointing, since they should have been butter fried properly. The food was practically tasteless, and saltless and it had looked so good that I am thoroughly disappointed. They did put a few flakes of cheese on the pasta, but it wasn't even cheesy. They couldn't flavor my food at all, and for that, I am very disappointed. The undercooking was just lousy. Moving on, to the amazing amazing Organic Mint Lemonade I ordered. I believe in giving credit where credit is due. This Lemonade was the only thing that got me through eating the pasta and not destroying my mood. It was so spectacular and so perfect. It was perfectly blended to ensure it wasn't at all bitter because of the mint which happens because of its residue, except at the end when it was almost over. It was perfectly flavorful and I enjoyed it thoroughly. Could drink it every day if I had the opportunity to. It was a bit pricey, with my dessert less order costing ₹520. So with dessert, my bill would be around ₹700/800. Bear that in mind if/when you visit. The ambiance was good too. Only if the pasta had matched it. ”

“ Excellent fresh food… great place.. not very big… very cosy sits about 15 inside and 15 outside … but the ingredients used are very very fresh and presentation also good… heaven for vegetarians … sorry no meat … great food and friendly staff ”

“ A perfect balance of taste, nutrition, color, smell... honestly the food was so wholesome that it not only filled my tummy but also my heart. The ambience was beautiful, the servers were well behaved and soooo many Healthy options!!! This small but beautiful place was a honestly one of the best places i have been to...the food was so tasteful that I actually was compelled to give my time and write this review. Honestly it takes a really good meal to motivate you to write a review ...but hands down, awesome place!!! Must go!! ”

“ We ordered Roasted Corn Cilantro Soup It was really nice If you like coconut base you’ll love the soup. The way it was served was so perfect The best way a soup can be served Place is a little small and compact Tables are too near but the vibe the food the service the staff were really good. Hummus was on point. If you like it you’ll like it. Pink Pasta was not really great it was a little dry. Should avoid this. ”

“ Loved the food here specially the healthy gluten free and dairy free options. My recommendation try the antioxidant smoothie, focaccia roasted tomato sandwich ”

“ Japanese Sushi is Good and Authentic.he served with wasabi , Ginger Pickle and Japanese soya. Taste is very good . ”

“ I recently visited Garde Manger Café in Vile Parle East, and while the food was enjoyable, the overall experience was far from satisfying. Parking: As with many cafés in this area, there is no dedicated parking available. Visitors traveling by car or bike should be prepared to look around for legal street parking — not very convenient. Seating & Ambience: The café offers both indoor and outdoor seating, but the space feels very tight and congested. The tables are extremely small — if you’re planning to order multiple dishes, you’ll struggle to fit everything on the table at once. It gets uncomfortable quickly. Also, the tables are placed too close to each other, and when the café is full, the noise levels can be overwhelming. During our visit, there was a loud group nearby, and due to the cramped layout, it was hard to have a peaceful conversation or enjoy our food. Service: The service was slow and poorly coordinated. We ordered hummus with pita bread, and although we had already finished most of our meal, the pita bread hadn’t arrived. When we followed up, it was clear from the staff’s expressions that they had forgotten to place the order. It eventually arrived after a wait of 30+ minutes, which really disrupted the flow of our meal. Food: On the positive side, the food was genuinely good — tasty and fresh. The flavors were spot on, and if I had to rate just the food, I’d give it a thumbs-up. ⸻ Final Thoughts: While the food is worth trying, the lack of space, poor service, and noisy environment took away from what could have been a nice café experience. I hope the management considers expanding the space and training the staff better to handle orders and communication. ”

“ Visited this small cafe in Vile Parle East yesterday. The best thing about this place was its vegan menu. It can be called a cafe which is slightly ahead of its times. Every dish had a healthy twist to it. Example - garlic bread was made with brown bread instead of white. There was a dish consisting of paratha which was made out of multi grain. Although the place is small, but service and taste is awesome. Must go for people who love healthy food. Attaching some of the pictures from the same. ”
