Food Review: Smoked Pizzas, Soda Pops & DIY Waffles At Tablespoon In Lower Parel

Tablespoon, located on the third floor of Phoenix Palladium Mall in Lower Parel, Mumbai, is a visually striking industrial-style eatery that combines elements of a trattoria, artisanal bakery, slow-fired smoker, and wood-fired pizzeria. The rustic yellow decor and stainless steel accents create an inviting atmosphere, while the open kitchen allows diners to observe the wood-fire oven and culinary creations.

The menu offers a diverse range of options, including vibrant decor, soda pops reminiscent of childhood memories, and generous portions of both everyday and experimental dishes. The soda selection features fruit-infused water and playful cans like Cherry Cola, Raspberry Soda, and Vanilla Cream Soda. The Try Trays provide a chance to sample various dishes, from Chicken Mediterranean to Tuscan Sandwiches and Smoked Pizzas.

Among the standout dishes, the Watermelon and Feta Cheese Salad showcases juicy watermelon chunks, feta cheese, balsamic vinegar, toasted pistachios, and microgreens. The Smoked Pork Ribs demonstrate the restaurant's smoking technique, with tender, hickory-smoked pork that falls off the bone. The Spicy Honey Margherita and Spaghetti Marinara are recommended pizza options, with the latter featuring a rich tomato sauce, sweet-and-sour vegetable caponata, and creamy burrata.

Desserts at Tablespoon include Nutella Banana Waffles, Tiramisu, Soft-serve with vanilla or chocolate bases, and a Cinnamon Toast made with vanilla ice cream, Biscoff, and caramel. With a diverse menu and a focus on quality ingredients and presentation, Tablespoon offers a unique dining experience in the heart of Lower Parel.
