Mumbai for first-time visitors

Best restaurants

Mumbai eats around the clock and across continents on a single block. The twelve restaurants below run from a 07:30 South Indian breakfast counter in Chembur East to a Lower Parel rooftop pouring drinks until 01:00, and they cover seafood and fine dining at Kohinoor Square, Burmese cooking on Senapati Bapat Marg, Mexican on a Bandra Kurla corporate road, and a south Indian institution that has stayed south Indian. This is not a tasting-menu list. It is a working map for someone who wants to eat well across the city's actual geography (Worli, BKC, Powai, Chembur, Dadar, Ghatkopar, Vile Parle, Lower Parel) and who would rather read the address than the hype. Every name, hour, address and cuisine claim below traces to OpenStreetMap or the restaurant's own site; the opinions are ours, and they are the only thing not cited.
