Review Summary

Jay Bhavani Vadapav is described as a vegetarian Indian street-food spot that aims to evoke a homey, Mumbai-Gujarati vibe with a menu featuring vadapav, misal pav, dabeli, sev puri, pav bhaji and chaat. Reviews frequently praise the bold flavors, fresh chutneys, and items like butter or cheese vadapav, misal pav, and paneer options, plus a clean, welcoming atmosphere and friendly service in many visits. Some readers note the vibe and authenticity are strong, making it a go-to for Indian snacks, while others find portions small for the price or criticize the texture of the bread, the dryness of chutneys, or inconsistency and occasional staleness. A few reviews mention slow or uneven service, parking challenges, or busy days affecting experience, but Jain options and a generally casual, family-friendly setting are often highlighted. Overall, Jay Bhavani Vadapav is seen as delivering authentic street-food flavors that resonate with home tastes, with several standout dishes and frequent high marks, though value and consistency could improve.

I came across this place 3 weeks ago ! I have tried most of their chaats ! I have been there 4 times already & the reason is they have option(s) for jain & swami Narayan , before that i never used to get the chaats ! I would rate their pao bhaji the best , vada pav second , rest everything , was ok-ok ! The service is great & people are nice ! I will stick to what I like .

When i visited them again there was a guy & he was literally rude who needs to be trained on customer satisfaction… he wasn't answering to the point but used statement like'We will not make fresh idli just for you'.

The tawa biryani was again so so, not so good.

Old review--

The staff was friendly & assisting

The food items were very average, not authentic taste, & the bread felt old , even the manchurian balls were not fresh. Fried rice was bit more salty.

Definitely a vegetarian option, but they need to improve taste & make it more authentic.

The food was very bad. We ordered so many items & we also ordered Rajbhog Lassi which was stale & tasted very bad; it was watery very watery. Mexican sandwich was disgusting, its like they have made sandwich with pav bhaji, the feeling of sandwich literally tasted like pavbhaji.

The Indian food here is mediocre, overly sweet & lacked flavours. However, the street food like paani puri is surprisingly good & worth trying if you're in the area.

I had a disappointing experience at Jay Bhavani. The [food/service] was below expectations, especially [specific issue]. On top of that, [another issue]. I raised the concern, but it wasn't handled properly. I expected better quality & basic customer service. Unfortunately, I wouldn't recommend this place based on my experience.& I oder for uber after call now in show 4 to 5 times but don't pick up my call……

Thanks to Nikunj bhai & team 5 star for the food, vibe & fun. Jay Bhavani is a gem if you're missing the real taste of Indian street food.
The flavours instantly take you back home. Their Schezwan fried rice & noodles are packed with bold, spicy flavour, perfect for anyone who loves that Indo-Chinese kick.
Misal Pav was spot on too (Mumbaikar here) , flavourful, spicy, & comforting. Portions were generous, prices reasonable, & service was quick & friendly. The vibe is casual, but perfect for a quick, satisfying meal. Definitely coming back to try more from their menu whenever I'm back in Montreal. Love from PEI

This place seems to primarily serve the neighbourhood Hindu population as the menu is tailored to their dietary restrictions, to provide them with a touch of home as well as a culinary exploration experience for those unfamiliar with Vada Pav & their other offerings. Although I'm well-acquainted with Indian food & have been eating it since I was young, this was a new experience for me. I went for the cheese Vada Pav & appreciated that they were not shy with the cheese. But the snack just didn't resonate with me, just was not fond of the texture or flavour of the vege-patty. The atmosphere has a very authentic Indian feeling to it & the service was fine, unfortunately the food just was not for my palate.

The famous & iconic item of Jay Bhavani, the vada pav, was missing butter in my butter vada pav. I would recommend requesting butter in your butter vada pav while ordering. I hope this reminds them to include it.

We went to this restaurant for dine in. First of all no one came to ask if we want to dine in or to take out. Then we went to check the menu near the counter. The cashier was so busy in his world! Worst Indian restaurant!

Tasty but very less quantity

We visited here & ordered Hakka noodles, a paneer tikka sandwich, & a tandoori paneer pizza from Toronto.
The taste was good & flavors were decent 👍
However, the quantity was way too less for the price charged which was quite disappointing.
The food didn't justify the cost at all.
They should either increase the portion size or reconsider their pricing, because it currently feels like overcharging to customers.
