Exploring the city’s architecture, culture, and history is fascinating, but at some point, you’re bound to feel the need for a little break, away from the buzz of the crowds. Check out one of these restaurants with a view in Mumbai, and enjoy a tasty meal and a breathtaking view of the city skyline or the sea and harbor.

This luxury restaurant is part of The Oberoi at Nariman Point, and it is a must-try, especially if you’re celebrating a special occasion, but also if you’re looking for a place to eat delicious food and enjoy a spectacular view of the sea. The menu at Ziya is quite an interesting and original take on Indian food, a reinterpretation of traditional dishes into a gourmet menu. If you can’t make up your mind on what to try, you can order the Ziya tasting menu, and try a fantastic selection. Otherwise, their slow-cooked lamb and soups are sensational.

Tip from Trip101 local expert
Last weekend, we were on the lookout for a cafe with a sea view when we chanced upon Cafe Marina. With a breathtaking view of the sea and the Mumbai skyline, the rooftop cafe is the perfect place to enjoy a laid-back evening with family or friends. If you are a coffee person, you must try their cold coffee. My husband also enjoyed his cappucino and said it was one of the best that he had tasted till date! The cafe also offers a wide variety of delicious appetizers, such as Galouti kebabs, tawa prawns, and bruschetta with minced lambs and herbs.
