Mumbai — Where We Ate & Drank
We ate through 15 restaurants, 2 bars, and 1 cafe in Mumbai—from Masque's tasting menu to Bombay Canteen's regional plates. Every spot we actually visited, mapped and reviewed.
Mumbai in February hit us at full volume: Masque's boundary-pushing tasting menu one night, Bombay Canteen's playful regional plates the next, and the Taj Mahal Palace anchoring the whole Colaba sweep. AER's rooftop at sunset earns the hype. The city runs hot, loud and generous—plan the eating first, everything else after.
