The 26 Best Restaurants In Mumbai

"Ekaa is an upscale restaurant in Fort that highlights hyper-seasonal Indian ingredients, and treats them with the love a local jeweler might have for emeralds—fermenting, emulsifying, and roasting them so they feel refreshingly new. The minimal, slightly industrial space with the glass roof doesn’t adhere to a single cuisine, so every dish that lands on your table is full of remarkable surprises. The finger-long house sausage looks tiny, and tastes so big. The just-picked butterhead lettuce is the powerhouse lead actor to its supporting character cast of onion dressing, sesame emulsion, silken tofu, courgette, and salmon sashimi, because it needs very little work to shine. Never leave without trying their fried chicken, which maxes out its savouriness with soy pickle, egg yolk jam, and fermented cauliflower. Whether you go for the totally-worth-it 10-course tasting menu (₹4500-₹4800 per person, reserve ahead), walk up to the bar for the Ayurveda-inspired clarified cocktails and tapas menu, or order a la carte, expect simplicity at its finest." - roshni bajaj sanghvi
