Barbeque Nation, Barbecue restaurant in Kurla West, Mumbai, India.
Barbeque Nation is a buffet-style grilling restaurant in Kurla West, Mumbai, where every table has a built-in charcoal or gas grill at its center. Guests pick from a selection of marinated meats and vegetables, grill them at the table, and then help themselves to prepared side dishes and desserts from the buffet counters.
Barbeque Nation started in India in the early 2000s as one of the first chains to bring table-side grilling to the country. It expanded across dozens of cities and helped establish the idea of interactive dining as a normal part of eating out in India.
The name "Barbeque Nation" reflects the chain's idea of making grilling a shared, social activity rather than something done behind a kitchen door. Diners at each table cook together over a built-in grill, which changes how a meal feels compared to a standard restaurant visit.
The restaurant runs two sittings per day, and tables can fill up fast on weekends and public holidays, so booking ahead is a good idea. Since the buffet covers starters, grilled items, mains, and desserts, it is worth arriving ready for a full meal.
The marinades used on the raw ingredients differ from one city branch to another, with each location adapting recipes to local flavor preferences. In Mumbai, this often means spice blends that lean toward the cooking traditions of western India.
