Best Burgers in Mumbai: Bandra, Fort and Colaba

The best burgers in Mumbai are buff smash burgers, and most of them are in Bandra West, with a second cluster in Fort and Colaba in South Mumbai. “Buff” means water buffalo. Maharashtra has banned cow beef since 5 March 2015, so every “beef” patty on a Mumbai menu is buffalo. The meat is lean, which is why the city’s best kitchens smash it thin, stack it double or load it with cheese.
