For me, this cafe was totally teleported me to the Parsi cafes in Mumbai. As it name says, this funkie cafe is Parsi cafe in one of the clusters in JLT ( cluster q). Great place to hangout if you are lover of Tea, Bun & Maska( well I’m — Specially when you are from Bombay, India). Superb Ambience, lovely place to chill out with friends . Food is great. Do try the chai, bun maska, bhindi fried chips ( ladies finger fried chips - you’d absolutely love it). Affordable price.

Went into Cafe Funkie twin with high expectations after reading the high ratings on Zomato. Somehow the overall experience fell short of where I thought the restaurant would have been. Had ordered the Keema with the pav and it tasted simply wonderful. The other two dishes ....Dhansak with Mutton Gravy ( as highly recommend) and the Chicken Frankie were much below average. The mutton pieces in the Gravy were quite tough. The ambience and the seating was quite appealing and the staff was very courteous. They should do something about the constant ringing that happens at the counter ( maybe because of the online order alerts...its pretty loud). One thing that I didnt like was the violations to the Covid guidelines. They had people sitting in adjacent tables something which is still not allowed here in Dubai and we were very uncomfortable with it. Hopefully the management has noticed this and is addressing the issue.

If you are craving to have some tasty Parso food then the hidden gem is located in Jlt. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. Interiors are lovely with pictures of Bollywood Golden era actors and actresses. We tried several dishes like Chicken Farcha ( favourite), Achari Paneer Tikka, Berry Pulao, Boti Mutton, Paneer Chilly dry. Must say everything tasted so good.

A cool chic café located in JLT & Business Bay is a Parsi Theme café. The ambiance of the place takes you to the small lanes of south Mumbai & Parsi colony. Being from Mumbai, it made me feel really nostalgic and hence I loved every moment spent here. As a true parsi, the café has put some from famous Parsi personalities on a wall while some good old Bollywood character sketches on the other wall. The combination of yellow walls, brown furniture & a tinge of blue, makes this place very beautiful to spend a relaxing afternoon or evening with friends & family.Coming to the food, we tried a lot of options including Parsi varieties:Veg Gravy Cutlet – a typical parsi style veg cutlet that was very soft on the inside in onion, tomato gravy with spices. This was the highlight of the evening for us.Veg Dhan Shaak – Although not perfectly made like we get in Mumbai, it was decent and served with fried onion pulao.Along with these Parsi varieties, we tried the Indian dishes like Paneer Tikka Masala, Dal Makhani, Hara Bhara Kabab which were very tasty and must haves here. The dal makhani was Mumbai style, a little sweet so we enjoyed eating it.We also tried their Paneer Manchurian Toast which was ok but lacked flavors. We wish this could have been better.For desserts we tried their Brownie Sundae & Royal Falooda which were both yummy and ended the evening perfectly for us.Overall a decent place to hangout with friends & family. I wish I was more hungry to try their chai and bun maska but we were full with the above dishes. They offer 20% off on zomato orders and also have a direct delivery option.Do check them out.

We loved our visit to cafe funkie town some days back and on weekend we tried their delivery as we had some guests over.. used their website to order and got 20% off.. ordering was easy and their website had many options- parsi, Indian and Chinese.. we settled for Chinese and chose Hakka noodles, dry Manchurian veg and American chopsuey..Order was delivered in time and packing was proper.. chpsuey was good portion and the food was shared by 4 adults and one child and it was just enough.. we all loved Manchurian and Veg Hakka noodles combo..world of caution— Hakka noodles were spicy so my daughter could not eat it.. better inform the cafe if you need no spice..We found the food good value for money as in less than 100 good lunch was done :-)Will try their Parsi dishes next time ..

I recently visited this Parsi restaurant and loved everything about it from the location to the ambience to the food. They also have a outdoor seating and there is a small play area next to the restaurant.The restaurant specializes in Parsi cuisine but also serves some other specialities from Mumbai.We tried all of these dishesPaneer ParathaPaneer Tikka MasalaChicken DhansakMethi Malai MutterAloo GobiJeera AlooDal MakhniDewani HandiVeg PulaoEgg CurryChilli cheese naanEverything I tried was really good. But I especially liked the chicken Dhansak and the paneer tikka masala.All the dishes are very reasonably priced too. Would love to visit again.

Go to place for Parsi food. We tried their Dhansak Chicken, Chicken Lollipops, Patra Ni Machchi and Chicken Parsi Curry Chawal. The food is tasty.Service was quick and friendly.

Café funkie town 🤩 the name got me at first place :)I got to review the branch at jlt, which has beautiful indoor and outdoor seating ( so much of greenery around).Loved the quaint and quirky ambiance, the staff super courteous and patient ( I took a while to place the order from the vast menu 🙈)If you wanna fry some authentic bombay parsi food , THIS IS UR PLACE , they even hv Indian other options .My favorite was the chicken tikka chilli toast ( swipe to watch a video) , hara chicken tikka was delicious 😋 and the chicken tikka pulav had a generous amount of chicken 🤩Everything we ordered was flavorful & delicious 🤤..THE BEST PART : they DON’T use and food color, no palm oil and no artificial thickness or msg !! And you will know this is true coz even if u r stuffed ( like I was ) you won’t feel the uncomfortable fullness...

I visited for late night meal at Cafe funkie town and was impressed with the interiors of the place. Their decor is inspired by a small town cafe that you find on the streets of Mumbai ! One of the walls has black and white pictures of the bollywood actors from the 80s. They also have a section outside where they have a collection of Antiques.However, I was not too happy with the food. We called for their famous Bun maska and chai and that was superb. But the other items ordered were not upto the mark such as Paneer Frankie and the Cheese chilli toast.The Frankie just had uncooked Paneer Pieces with some shredded veggies and chutney. This is something which can be easily made at home. Paying AED 30 for it was way too expensive. Cheese chilli toast did not have Chilly in it. When we asked for a replacement dish, we were served with the toast but with Pav Bhaji Masala sprinked on it in the form of chilli.After this dish we were too dicey to order anything else.I doubt I will visit them again !

Just as the name says, cafe funkie town is a funky cafe nestled in the cluster of Jumeirah Lake Towers. The ambience is set in Bollywood style with a team of friendly staffs to delight the mood of customers.Parsi food is their speciality along with Indian street food, and they served Lagan nu Custard (5/5), Chicken grill platter (4/5), passion fruit Mojito (5/5), pav bhaji (5/5), prawn patiyo (5/5), Parsi omelette (5/5). It is a perfect place to lay your hands-on, authentic Parsi food.

This is how the my last few orders were delivered. And always late. If its late, you know youre getting a bagful of slop that is unappetising and you have to clean up the mess.

Initially we had a bad experience from this place long time back and then yesterday again we thought to give a another try and ordered Rajmah , Dal Makhani & Matar malai methi.And food was really amazing and completely felt like home made food.Really liked it and would try their non veg dishes also.

Cafe Funkie Town - Menu has the largest selection of Indian and authentic Parsi food.I loved everything about this cafe from the ambience to the food.  Their finger licking grill platter is definitely bringing me back to this cafe. The sitting area is so cozy and prices are definitely reasonable.We started with grill platter which was delicious. Bhunna mutton is definitely a must try if you visit @cafefunkietown -We ended our meal with royal Falooda.  I must say it is One of the hidden gems in the Business bay area.

Loved everything about this placeIt reminds u of home food tooI love the prawn pulaoThe chicken curryAlso loved the maska bunIt is really a very nice place to taste the different varieties of food servedDo try it out

Placed an order here for some of their bestsellers as suggested by the call taker for a mix of Indian, Parsi and Bombay classics. Gotta say I loved the food here. The kheema par eidu(kheema +egg 5/5) served with bun maska was one of my favorites. Loved the mutton seekh kabab(5/5) too. We also ordered the Patra Ni Machchi(4/5), chicken tikka masala(5/5) and egg pulao(4/5). The delivery reached us on time, the call takers were friendly and loved the food. Cant wait to return.

Ordered watermelon juice with ginger and received Ginger water ... Could not get the taste of watermelon as the water added was much more than watermelon 👎

I ordered a chicken cutlet and veg cheese sandwich. Disappointed with the quality of the food. The cutlet is not crispy and the packaging is horrible. I wish I could get the money back. Horrible food. Please improve your food quality.

Cafe Funkie Town is a lovely and cozy restaurant located in Cluster Q of JLT. Its literally a HIDDEN GEM waiting to be explored. Such beautiful and cool place for Indian and Parsi cuisines. The food prepared here is excellent in taste. Whatever is on the menu is super duper. The Ambience is set on the typical Parsi style with wooden decor and complete with a antique chair of the owners father. It sets the mood of home style food prepared with a lot of love, typical Parsi culture.We tried various dishes here, starting with the Chicken Tikka Chilli Cheese Toast, its Cheese melted on toasted bun bread with chicken tikka toppong, stuffed with onion, tomatoes, sprinkled with coriander & chillies . The Chicken tikka Frankie, i tasted here were the best i ever had. Brilliantly prepared Tikka garnished with onion, capsicum with spices n wrapped in a roasted with beated egg. These two are a must have. Mutton cutlets is another hit dish. Mutton mince is mixed with onion, chilli, mint leaves, rooled in beaten eggs, dredged in crumbs n fried. Presentation of the dishes is basic but the flavours take the experience to the next level.Another amazing appetizer is The Harra Paneer Tikka Paneer served here is marinated with indian spices and perfectly grilled, paneer was so tender, lovely marination and it was something very special. Tagdi kebab, Succulent drumsticks cooked in tandoor. Ajwaini Fish Tikka, boneless pieces of fish marinated in Indian spices and carom seeds. No words can describe fabulous taste of all these appetizers. You need to have it to experience it.We then tried the Mutton kheema, its minced mutton cooked in green masala. We usually have the kheema with red masala, here tried it first time with green spinach based masala. Served with brun pav, its excellent in taste and will keep you craving for more.Service is exceptional good. All the staff were efficient, they all know their food and drinks in and out and seem so extremely passionate about it. Special shout out to our main server Anil.Overall experience is that you get spoilt for good choices once you are inside and that too all in one place. Cafe Funkie Town is definitely worth a visit with all your familyand friends. Very Highly recommended!!!!

It is a good place to have a nice time with friends and family. Unlike other restaurant in JLT, it is located in a bit side off area and hence has a privacy.I like their tea and bun maska. All the items are fresh and prepared in authentic indian taste.Price are above than the average ones by 20-30%.

Excellent place if you are craving for Mumbai Parsi food. From Berry Pulav to Bun Muska, everything has authentic taste.

Loved the foodWe ordered in1 Vegetable Pulao DaalThis was v tasty especially the Pulao 4/52 Chicken Sali BotiIn which potato crisps or sali are supposed to be garnished on top 5/53 Veg Berry Pulao 5/5 in taste and look4 Mutton Curry chawal : excellent 5/5Total cost 136 dirhams as we got a 15 per cent discount

Loved the combo chai with bun maska. Also kurkuri bhindi is mind blowing

Nice bombay style parsi caffe. Food is good and menu spread is generous

We ordered Veg munchurian, and Veg thali. In thali came, paneer butter masala, daal, Veg pulao, and salad. Everything was okiesh except the Spiciness in Manchurian. I love their chapatis which are remain always soft. Veg pulaw was nice too. Overall their thali good to try but not very great to be honest.

Tasty authentic cuisine with some interesting variations like Mumbay China options. Friendly waiter who helped us with dishes selection. Very reasonable prices.

Egg dishes were good ....veg options are average...

Excellent Parsi food that is not available anywhere else in Dubai. Great service and a ambiance. For breakfast, try Akuri, Khari Biscuits and Ginger Tea, just awesome!

Typical ambience of a Irani restaurant. Folks from Bombay will get it. Brings back good memories. Excellent non veg options for the parsee cuisine. Would have loved more vegetarian options in the parsee cuisine. The veg options are mainly your typical North Indian fare. Tried the beg dhanshak and was underwhelmed. Had much more expections. The day was a bit more liquidy and had the French beans and carrots and peas (looked like they just added the frozen veggie pack in the dal). The day on ot own taste wise was good but was expecting ni vegetables and a thicker version. The brown rice and the veg cutlet were fun and nice. I need to get my wife (who is a parsee) to try it out one of these days and update later on what she feels on the meat and chicken and prawns food. Overall worth a visit and try for sure. Ppl had spoken a lot about its ginger tea. Did not find it that great but may be will try the breakfast sometime.

Very Good Mutton mince pattice.

Had the brun maska and kheema pav. Both were ok in comparison to the Bombay style. Kheema was wetish and the brun maska was not kadak types. Ambience was lovely though. Typical Parsi-Iranian feel.

Great ban maska and chai and kheema but bad chilly cheese and frankie. Overall good customer service and decent food and nice hang out place in open. Worth visiting

Loved the food.So awesome.The bun maska and chai reminds me of my college days at Lucky restaurant in Pune.

Amazing food great service and hospitality, the owners take personal care and involvement with the kitchen and service,

Guys if you are looking for authentic Parsi food this is the place to visit!!! We tried the Keema Pav, Sali Boti,Berry Pulao, Pathrani Machi and also their Diwali Dhamaka Menu( Which is added by some amazing Homecook) every single food that we tried was amazing and we were just talking about how good the food wasFor 3 days everyone we met we kept talking about the restaurant how good the food was.The owners of the place Mr.Zubin and Ms. Roshni are so welcoming making you feel like home!! This is what you want when you want to visit a place especially when you go to a restaurant ❤❤Must Try!! Must Try and very reasonable and every dish is value for money!! I totally recommend it..Keep up the good work guys❤❤

Good food but perhaps a bit pricey

Best Parsi food.

Yummy food and good price!Also liked the collection of black and white photos of bollywood actors from older and golden times :)

Good food slightly high on price but worth the spendPretty relaxed bombay irani cafe feel with trendy interiorsService is good

Good place. Nice food and good ambience.

Food was good but not extraordinary. Parsi food must be very spicy to be best enjoyed. Service was fast. Waiters were good. Lighting and decor was good. Washroom must be visited!!!

Atmosphere is nice .. food is ok .. went there with my wife and daughter .. ordered 3 Nans, one chicken dhansak and a starter . Bill was approx 90 aed.. for the taste and price ratio, cant say I would go again given the huge number of options in JLT.Service was quick.

Awesome food and perfect place to be in

🥰

Delivered wrong dish..and complete tasteless..I called restaurant they said they will check n call back..n nobody had courtesy to call back..Thanks for spoiling my Friday evening..DISAPPOINTED 😞 BigTime !!

Love the food, bollywood inspired interiors and service.

Good Taste

Love the food . Must try!

Good food

Very disappointing quality of food and flavors. We were served chicken kebab that tasted and smelled unpleasant (rancid). I got sick subsequently right after having dinner there and spend the last 12 hrs with stomach sickness. I don’t recommend this place at all

Best restaurant in Dubai. Feels like home food. Have arranged catering service for family events as well as office events. Very well arranged by Funkie town. 100% customer satifaction.

Love their parsi Flavor and burgers

Had a nice time with friends.. typical parsi food... not a chaat place though.. the ginger tea was good..

Nice and clean place. Also ordered delivery from them.

Chai is yummy.. Ordered keema pav, it was stale. But they gave complimentary custurd. Love their Frankie. Do try Manchurian Frankie.

If there is one restaurant in town that I will not dare try ever and also tell my friends not to try has to be Cafe Funkie (Junkie) Town. First youll shell out quite an amount on the order only to see the quantity is Tapas! Then the ordeal begins when you taste it. I can understand if one dish is not good but interestingly not a single item we got on 27th over dinner tasted good. The chicken starter was stinking, keema was sad, akuri was the worst bhurji Ive ever had and panner bhurji was yukkk. I called the restaurant and told them about it and poor Shehbaz got another round of chicken which was better than the original one but not upto the mark and akuri was almost the same. Overall, I could say Ive never ever been this disappointed about a restaurant and its food that Im compelled to write this review. Id never order food from here even for free!

If you like to eat authentic Farsi Food you must go to this place. Food is awesome and staffs are really good.

Funkie Town is just below my tower. It make me feel like Im in Mumbai. Great work...!!!

One of the best Cafe in JLT!!

This was a nice surprise for us, we werent planning for Indian food and the place was the highlight of the day.Nice attaining staff, delicious food and new concept

Good place

This place is right next to my home and I see a lot of people here during the lunch time. I’ve tried a lot of different food from here and I cant believe id say this - I love their khichadi with papad and curd. Their chai is also good bit don’t try the lemonade. Overall its a chill place

Good parsi food. Try the kheema Pau

One of the few places that serves good parsi food in Dubai. Quite a big menu. Management is always around as well. Serving times are decent and food quality is consistent.

Good food, great place!! Love their bun maska 😍

Its a take on the Parsi cafes in Mumbai. The food is good, service quick and decor basic. Everything just as you would expect in Mumbai except that the Bawa uncle is missing! 😉

Very good and authentic Parsi restaurant. Food is very tasty and the service is prompt (we had gone during Ramadan time, so ...). The bun maska is a must try here.

Superb

Very loser service and very bad language of countar

Loved the authentic Parsi food. Enjoyed the breakfast and made it a point to stop here after our drive from Abu Dhabi. I think the prices have increased and wondering if it could be better though as it was a little bit on the expensive side.

I ordered the chicken box with chicken haryali, yellow dal as extra, rice and 2 bread.Chicken haryali was exceptional. Extremely tasty.I would like to try something spicier but with the same flavour next timeFast delivery and the driver was friendly.Good food and service.Highly recommended

My favourite Indian restaurant with great vegan options!

Kheema pav with chai just out of the world... Still drooling.

Decent ambience. Starters, tea and bun maska are great. Main course and Indian breads are below average.

Authentic parsi food...

Delightful food. Authentic Parsi. Many Vegan and veg options. Quick efficient service

Nice meals

Good parsi food at a resonable price

Amazing Parsi food. Almost every item on the menu is fantastic and worth trying.

A quaint Bombay Parsi eatery with vegetarian options . Its not just an eatery but a place which takes you down the memory lane with the owners personal as well as Bollywood memorabilia. Famous Bollywood dialogues are framed and placed in the wash area and the washroom which will keep you chuckling even while youre relieving.Had vegetarian Dhansak with Basmati rice and Chafian , topped them with masala chai. Portion size was good. Two dishes were more than enough for three. Good value for money.

Enjoyed the food....enjoyed the service !!!!

Lovely decor and a great food make this place reminiscent of a Parsi household from Bombay. The food matches the ambiance and delivers plenty of flavour, with dishes priced well only helping matters.The service,however, can be a bit hit and miss.

Tea and Maska pav is the signature. Food ia okay. Nothing exceptional but okay. Maybe a treat for the Parsi s as its a Parsi joint.

Great place for Parsi Food..

Small and nice parsi cuisine restaurant. Parking was a challenge but the food was good. Mutton cutlets are must and also baida roti but not the best I have tried. End with ginger tea over baida by Custer. There is a play area right outside do the kids can enjoy their time after a quick bite.

Good restaurant

Kheema Naan ordered via Zomato was one of the most unpleasant meals I had, there were small pieces of Stone in the naan, sure to never visit this place again!

Its a nice Irani - Parsi style restaurant located in JLT....the name Funkie Town can be a bit misleading ...but some1 who has a liking for bun maska - Dhansak - sali boti - akuri pav then this is the place ....

You would get authentic Mumbai feeling with the bun maska and keema pav. If you are a parsi food lover then this place is for you. Its over priced though

My family loves trying different cuisines. We were on a serious Salli Boti and Dhansak trail a couple of years back and a friend recommended Cafe Funkie town in JLT. And love the place we did! Reminds you of Old Bombay and love the Parsi grandfathers rocking chair which completes the authentic Parsi feel of the place. The food has a delicious home cooked taste which warms your heart. Have got to know the owner over the years and can see the dedication she puts into running the place. Try it if you haven’t. Go straight for the Salli Boti & Dhansak. They have some interesting takes on breakfast too!

Amazing food.. And super hygienic ..

Nice place to enjoy some good Parsi cuisine

Good service

I was Vegetarian the day I went, and was disappointed with the few choices we had. Ordered a Paneer Tikka Frankie which was dripping of oil so much that we just got putt off with the entire place! The interiors were amazing and worth a mention and a few pictures, but apart from that the place was average!

Parsi food for the win. Try their bindi fry and traditional dishes.. slurp
