6 Rooftop Restaurants in Mumbai for a Special Date

Nothing kills the mood on a date like a screaming baby or a noisy restaurant. Planning a date with your significant other for a special occasion – Birthday, anniversary or just a date due a long time? While a rustic dhaba meal on a long drive or a pav bhaji that you made yourself for the first time are good ideas, a special occasion deserves more, don’t you think so? We bring you the six best of Mumbai’s rooftop restaurants where you and your date can relax, enjoy the view with absolutely wonderful food!

1. Café Terra

Where: Pali Hill Bandra West,

What to have: Oriental Pot Rice, Jalapeno Cheese Croquette,

This place has live music, if you’re lucky they’ll take requests too! The food, the music, the ambience and the view all come together for a perfect date night package. This is a place where you’ll get to spend some quality time with your significant other. What better way to catch up with your partner than with a glass of wine and changing of the sky from twilight to a starry sky.

2. Aer – Four Seasons

Where: Worli

A little towards the steep side but definitely worth the money. The view is simply breathtakingly awesome. Chances are you might forget your food (even worse, your date) thanks to the view.
