The eastern suburbs grew around industry and institutions — the IIT and the lake at Powai, the Godrej township at Vikhroli, the refineries and the RCF colony at Chembur. Ghatkopar and Mulund are strongly Gujarati and Jain; Chembur has a long Sindhi and South Indian presence; Powai’s restaurant strip runs on the IIT, the office parks and the hotels.

A note on this page. Restaurants and shops open, move and close far more often than factories and markets do. Everything here is a snapshot of Mumbai as of 2026, offered as a starting point rather than a live listing. Check the address and the hours before you travel.
Restaurant, shop and company names and trademarks belong to their respective owners. Inclusion is for independent discovery only, not endorsement, ranking or affiliation.
