Raafae's Best-Selling Feasts & Royal Thaals
Welcome to the Dastarkhwan. From 4-foot Nizami thaals to live Kunafa, this is our highlight reel of the biggest, baddest feasts we serve. Grab your squad and dig in.
A server brings a massive, flaming Raafae's Nizami Thaal to the table. This platter is a feast for the eyes, loaded with a variety of starters and designed for a royal group dining experience.
The Raafae's Big Thaal is unveiled with dramatic dry ice smoke, revealing ten different types of starters. This platter is a complete meal for 8 people, offering incredible value.
The Shahi Nizami Thali is presented, featuring a spectacular flaming sword kebab as its centerpiece. This platter combines dramatic presentation with a rich assortment of Mughlai delicacies.

My Special Kepsa Thaal, a budget-friendly option for 4-5 people, is carried to a table. This platter offers a delicious mix of rice and chicken, proving that a great feast doesn't have to be expensive.

About Featured
If you are coming with a group of 6-8, do not over-order. Our Shahi Nizami and Big Thaals are designed specifically to be shared, so you end up paying much less than a standard meal while eating twice as much variety. It is all about the communal vibe here.
When we started Raafae's Dastarkhwan ten years ago, the goal was simple: bring people together over food that is halal, healthy, and heavy on flavour. These featured platters are exactly what earned us the title of King of Thaal.
Whether you visit our spots in Mira Road, Mahim, or Lonavala, you are getting the same massive portions. We focus on the 'experience' of eating—flaming kebabs arriving on skewers, dry ice fog for the drama, and those heaps of Kepsa rice that look good on the 'gram but taste even better in person.
Here is the breakdown of what makes these feasts popular:
- The Thaal Setup: You can choose traditional floor seating on carpets and cushions for that authentic, relaxed vibe, or stick to our standard tables if you prefer.
- The Variety: Our Shahi Nizami Thaal is not just one dish. It mixes Mughlai gravies, Lucknowi kebabs, Chinese starters, and Arabic touches all on one plate. It removes the stress of deciding what everyone wants to eat.
- Live Counters: Don't skip the live Kunafa. We make it fresh in 11 different varieties, and watching the pastry being layered and the creamy filling added is part of the show.
We know the drill—people come in groups, they want a big meal, and they do not want a massive bill at the end. That is the definition of full paisa vasool dining. If you are planning a visit for a birthday or a weekend get-together, just give us a shout to book your table.
Raafae's Dastarkhwan
We have been at this for over 10 years, starting with just one simple idea: feed families well without breaking the bank. Whether it is our flaming kebabs or the heaps of Mandi rice, everything we serve is meant to be eaten together. Pull up a chair and let us handle the feast.
