Visited this place on 4/6/26. We were 4 people had no wait actually we had prebooked for 7:30 through District app. The pre-booking required us to reach 15 minutes prior and so we reached at 7:15 pm. The staff was very friendly and attentive. They have seating on the ground floor and upstairs as well. We tried their Margherita pizza,Veggy executive pizza,exotic veg and cheese sandwich,classic veg crossiant burger, espresso (single shot) it was served with a complimentary Russian Medovik Cake piece,lotus biscoff cheesecake,Italian Tiramisu Medovik pastry and signature Belgium chocolate Medovik pastry the total rounded to around rs 3,000 . This place is not too expensive and it's located at a very prime location,very close to the BSE.The interior and the decor was very premium and felt like really nice artistic vibes .The fact that I liked the most was everything was vegetarian and sometimes it's really difficult to find pure veg restaurants with a really good menu and nice decor. The food was very delicious and was served within 10-15 minutes. The standout dessert was The lotus Biscoff Cheesecake for me and I really liked the Veggy executive pizza as well. It's only 3-4 minutes drive and 10 minutes walk from Churchgate station. Will definitely consider to come back again.
Hands down the best macarons I’ve ever had! Harley's Lounge serves macarons that are absolutely next level. Perfectly crisp on the outside, soft and rich on the inside, and bursting with flavour in every bite. You can instantly tell they’re made with precision and real expertise. If you’re a macaron lover, this place is a must-try. Once you have them here, the bar is set very high. Truly unforgettable! ✨
Harley’s Ivory Lounge We walked into Harley’s Ivory Lounge at Kala Ghoda with two things guiding us. The almost unbelievable 4.8 rating across thousands of reviews and the dreamy photographs online that promised a café from another world. The approach did little to prepare us, for the street outside was dim and unremarkable, almost post-apocalyptic in its neglect. And then suddenly the café appeared, glowing like a castle from a fairytale, standing proud in the middle of ruin. Inside, the spell continued. It was heavenly in its beauty, every corner carefully crafted. The only slip was the use of AI art in some frames, which felt more tacky than tasteful, but beyond that it was a space that held you. The booths were elegant, the plating was charming, and the staff carried the same grace, explaining the menu patiently when it seemed unfamiliar. It felt like a refuge, especially for those who wander Kala Ghoda late into the night, since the doors stay open till midnight. The food began with the pistachio medovik, the Russian honey cake that arrived layered like a poem. The pistachio sang most in the top layer, while the cream in between was rich and perhaps too thick, and the lower bread base leaned towards crumbly. Yet it was still a dish of substance, one that lingered on the tongue. Alongside came a lemon macaron, delicate on the outside, but the filling inside leaned harder than perfection would demand. The attempt was admirable, the execution almost there. The choco medovik hot chocolate was an indulgence, large in portion, flecked with medovik pieces, sweet and satisfying but tilting into cloying by the end. Its texture was smooth but not as luxuriously thick as some of the best, and perhaps a smaller, denser version would balance price and pleasure better. The small cube of medovik served alongside was a thoughtful touch, though in the company of so many sweets it became a test of endurance. In the end, Harley’s Ivory Lounge dazzled us. The ambience was extraordinary, the staff warm, the plating memorable. The food had its strengths and its stumbles, but wrapped within such a setting, the flaws softened. Looking back, perhaps the ambience is carrying much of the weight of that near perfect rating. Still, it remains a place to which one would happily return, if only to try its savoury secrets and sit once more in a castle that rises out of nowhere. 8/10
