AB's, Barbecue restaurant in Powai, Mumbai, India.
AB's is a barbecue restaurant in Powai, Mumbai, where each table has a built-in grill at its center. A chef comes to the table and prepares meats, seafood, and vegetables to order, right in front of the guests.
AB's opened in the early 2010s, at a time when Mumbai's dining scene was beginning to experiment with interactive formats. It was among the first restaurants in the city to make table-side grilling a central part of the experience.
AB's draws groups who want to share a meal cooked together at the table, which gives the experience a social, almost festive feel. The format encourages conversation and a slower pace than a typical dinner out.
AB's is on the first floor of ATL Corporate Park on Saki Vihar Road in Powai, in a business district that is easy to reach from much of the city. Guests who are sensitive to smoke should know that the grilling happens right at the table throughout the meal.
Although AB's sits inside a corporate office complex, it operates as a full evening dining destination rather than a workplace canteen. Many first-time visitors are caught off guard by the setting when they arrive.
