Amreli

Near the T2 food court, Amreli handles fast Indian bites.

Amreli sits airside in Terminal 2, past security and immigration, alongside other quick-service spots near the main international departures food court. It runs through most flight banks, but treat it as a QSR: order at the counter, wait for your tray or takeaway pack, and head back toward the T2 gate clusters 45–60 minutes before boarding.

This is an Indian-focused quick-service restaurant, so expect thalis, curries, parathas, and snack items rather than burgers or pizza. Pricing runs higher than city levels but standard for BOM T2: a basic combo or thali often lands in the ₹400–₹700 range, with single snack plates lower and larger mains higher. Portions skew airport-medium, not dhaba-hearty, so a hungry flyer might want a main plus one shared starter.

Menu rotation shifts, but you usually see vegetarian and non-vegetarian options side by side, including paneer dishes, dal, and at least one chicken or mutton curry. Ask what’s being held fresh and what’s been under the heat lamps longest; at slower times between midnight and 4:00 a.m., fried snacks can sit too long. Spice levels track mainstream North Indian restaurant norms in Mumbai, not toned-down Western hotel levels, so someone spice-sensitive should double-check before ordering a full plate of something like chilli paneer.

Amreli targets travelers who want Indian food quickly without leaving T2, so everything comes in disposable plates and cups suited to a 20–30 minute sit-down or a quick takeaway back toward gates around the 70–80 range. Card payments and UPI are standard, but carry a backup card in case the QR system glitches, which does happen occasionally in the terminal.

Tip: if your international flight from Terminal 2 boards from a far pier like gates 80–90, start walking with your food in a takeaway box; the walk can chew up 10–15 minutes at busy times.
