Mumbai eats on a long clock, and this list is built around that fact. The earliest door here opens at 06:30 and the latest closes at 02:30, so the useful question is rarely where to eat and usually when. The 12 picks run from a hotel kitchen cooking Pan-Asian and Japanese food on Juhu Tara Road to a single-cuisine South Indian room on D K Sandu Marg, taking in a rooftop opposite Ghatkopar East Railway Station that lists Jain cooking beside Mexican and Italian. Several of these menus sprawl across four or five cuisines, and our advice throughout is the same: pick one lane and order it well. We built this list for visitors who would rather plan around opening hours and postal codes than around hype. Two of these kitchens close on Mondays, one runs only morning-to-lunch hours, and one shows no Wednesday service at all. Read the hours before you read the menu.

1 Sesame - Hyatt Centric Juhu
1005 Juhu Tara Road, Mumbai, 400049Pan-Asian and Japanese cooking served from 07:00 to 23:30 every day
The kitchen at Sesame in Hyatt Centric Juhu runs a Pan-Asian and Japanese menu from 07:00 to 23:30, every day of the week. At 1005 Juhu Tara Road, 400049, that means the same kitchen is open at breakfast and again close to midnight, which is why we rate it above its logo. Skip the hotel-dining habit of grazing a little of everything; order narrowly and stay on the Japanese side of the card. The hotel publishes its dining details on its own site, and the restaurant takes calls on +91 86578 84964. Go late, when a long day needs something clean and unhurried.

2 Bastian At The Top
Kohinoor Square, Mumbai, 400028Seafood in a fine-dining register, lunch through to 01:00
Bastian At The Top sits at Kohinoor Square in the 400028 postal area, billing itself as a fine dining seafood kitchen. The kitchen runs Tuesday to Sunday, 12:00 to 01:00, so a Monday visit will find the doors shut. That long window is the reason to choose this address: lunch can stretch into the afternoon, and dinner can start late without anyone watching the clock. We'd skip the seafood platters designed to photograph well and order around the fish instead. Book ahead on 02250333555; the restaurant also keeps a page online. Dress for the room and come hungry.

3 Burn Bar and Kitchen
Pinnacle Corporate Park Kanzul Iman Road, Mumabi, 400051A four-cuisine kitchen open daily until 02:30
Burn Bar and Kitchen at Pinnacle Corporate Park on Kanzul Iman Road, 400051 opens at 11:30 and runs until 02:30, seven days a week. The menu spans Mexican, Italian, Chinese and Indian cooking, which is a wide brief, but we'd resist the temptation to work through all four in one sitting. A table that commits to one of them eats better, and we hold that opinion firmly. What earns this place a spot on any itinerary is the kitchen still firing after midnight. Two numbers reach the front desk: +919152042515 and +918454880008, and weekends are the time to use them.

4 Lake View Cafe
#2&3B Saki Vihar Road, Mumbai, 400087Breakfast and brunch from a 06:30 opening, with dessert on the same menu
Lake View Cafe at #2&3B Saki Vihar Road, 400087 puts breakfast, brunch and dessert on the same card as Indian plates, noodles, pasta and Mediterranean dishes. Doors open at 06:30 and close at 23:00, every day, which gives this cafe the earliest start on our list and makes it a reliable answer to an early flight or a morning that begins too soon. A cafe with hours this long is best used at the edges of the day, and we agree: come early, order breakfast, and leave the pasta for people with less imagination. The website has the full details, and the phone is +918657415264.

5 Chembur Adda
Next to Jenny Pohtot Studio Shell Colony Road, Mumbai, 400 071Chicken and seafood on a menu that also runs American, Chinese and Indian
Chembur Adda, on Shell Colony Road in the 400 071 postal area, lists five lines of cooking: chicken, American, Chinese, seafood and Indian. The kitchen runs 08:00 to 22:00 every day. A menu that wide invites the scatter-order mistake, where you end up with a bit of everything and nothing particularly good. Pick between the chicken and the seafood, build the rest of the table around that call, and you will eat better for it. The hours work for a late breakfast as comfortably as an early dinner, though the 22:00 close makes this a poor destination if you are starting the evening late. Call +91 22 2666 1575 before arriving with a group.

6 Mani's
8 D K Sandu Marg, Mumbai, 400071A kitchen that lists South Indian cooking and nothing else
One word covers the kitchen at Mani's, 8 D K Sandu Marg in the 400071 postal area: South Indian. On a list full of menus that spread themselves across four cuisines at once, that single line is the recommendation. A kitchen with one job tends to do it properly, and a dosa added as an afterthought to a multi-cuisine hall rarely does, whatever the menu claims. Service runs Tuesday to Sunday from 07:30 to 22:00, so account for the Monday closure and treat this as a breakfast address before anything else. The restaurant answers on +91-22-25-200-201. Come early, eat with your hands, and do not ask for the pasta.

7 Milagro Mumbai
Swatantrya Veer Savarkar Marg, 400025Mediterranean fine dining with dinner service to 01:30
Milagro Mumbai is a Mediterranean kitchen that lists itself as fine dining, on Swatantrya Veer Savarkar Marg, 400025. Dinner runs 19:00 to 01:30 on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday, with Friday to Sunday adding a lunch sitting from 12:00 to 16:00; the listing shows no Wednesday hours at all. With a schedule this particular, walking in on a guess is a poor bet. Check the restaurant's own site or call +91 9167779103 before you dress for it. We like it best as a late table, when a Mediterranean dinner can take its time.

8 Bharat Cafe
near ghatkopar station Shraddhanand Road, mumbai, 400077Coffee, pizza and sandwiches a short walk from Ghatkopar station
Pizza, sandwiches and coffee make the whole argument at Bharat Cafe, a western-leaning coffee shop near Ghatkopar station on Shraddhanand Road, 400077, open from 10:00 to 22:00 every day of the week. The station is the reason to know it: this is a place to sit down between trains, not a destination dinner, and it is better for being honest about that. We'd skip the grab-and-go counters that treat a sandwich as fuel and take a table for the length of one coffee. Order simply. A cafe with a menu this plain has nowhere to hide, which we count in its favour.

9 Triospice Restaurant (Roof Top)
7th Floor, Neelyog Cine Plaza, Opp Ghatkopar East Railway Station, R.B mehta marg, Mumbai, 400077Jain cooking on a rooftop menu that also covers Indian, Mexican and Italian
Triospice Restaurant occupies the 7th Floor of Neelyog Cine Plaza, opposite Ghatkopar East Railway Station, at R.B Mehta Marg, 400077, and the kitchen is open from 12:00 to 02:00 every day. The menu covers Indian, Mexican, Italian and Jain cooking, and that last word is the one that matters: a late-night rooftop that cooks Jain food gives a mixed table somewhere to agree on. The locals prefer the Indian and Jain side of a card like this, and so do we; leave the nachos alone. Call +918976072766 for a table after dark.

10 Saheel Restaurant
Mumbai, 400017Moghlai and Chinese cooking from early morning to 00:30
Monday at Saheel Restaurant starts at 07:00, while Tuesday to Sunday open at 07:30, with a 00:30 close every night. The kitchen covers two cuisines, Chinese and Moghlai, and our money goes on the Moghlai side. Avoid the split order that puts fried rice next to a gravy; it flatters neither. The published address stops at the 400017 postal area, so ring +91 77384 50409 for directions before you set out. What earns the place here is the span of the day: a room that serves from breakfast until past midnight is useful to a visitor in a way that prettier restaurants are not.

11 The Bodhi Cafe
Ground Floor Parvati Niwas, Paranjape B Scheme, Road 2, Besides Datta Mandir, Vile Parle East, Mumbai, 400057Pasta, pizza, sandwiches and soup in a morning-to-lunch window
The Bodhi Cafe is on the ground floor of Parvati Niwas, beside Datta Mandir on Road 2 in Vile Parle East, 400057, with a menu of pasta, pizza, sandwiches and soup. The hours are the surprise: 09:15 to 13:30 every day, which makes this a late-breakfast and lunch address by the book. An evening visit is a wasted trip unless you call 09550286477 first. We like a cafe that sits inside a residential scheme and keeps short hours; it suggests a kitchen cooking for neighbours. Order the soup with a sandwich and be gone before the lunch window shuts.

12 SpiceKlub
8A, Janta Industrial Estate Senapati Bapat Marg, Mumbai, 400013An all-Indian menu served in two daily sittings
SpiceKlub sits at 8A Senapati Bapat Marg in the Janta Industrial Estate, 400013, and the menu is all-Indian. Service runs in two sittings, 12:00 to 16:00 and 18:30 to 00:00, leaving the late afternoon as a dead zone worth planning around. The industrial estate address is the point: you arrive here with intent, for the food, and nobody drifts in by chance. Skip the hotel-lobby Indian restaurants that cook for nervous palates and book here instead. The restaurant keeps its own site and two lines, +91 22 4610 4610 and +91 22 4610 4604.
