Fodor's Expert Review Kareem's

Popular with college kids, and tucked neatly off Carter Road, Kareem's serves some of the best kebabs in the burbs—and it's a good option for those wary of eating street-side kebabs (which, honestly, take kebabs to a whole other level), or not up for a visit to Muhammad Ali Road, in the Muslim ghetto. Open-air, but decorated in unpretentious but modern, dark wood, Kareem's has a casual atmosphere, enhanced by the bench-style seating. Try the chicken tikka, the mutton seekh kebabs (minced meat wrapped around a skewer and cooked in the tandoor oven), and, for vegetarians, the paneer tikka (grilled cheese with peppers and onions). There's another on Colaba Causeway.
