Innovative menu that’s derived from American elements while staying true to the original Mexican heart of it. The Sunday Brunch even offers interesting cocktails and tapas. Loaded Nachos and crafter beer is a sure hit. They even offer a good Prosecco by glass.

Inspired by Picasso’s muse, this bar is a blend of French, Italian and all things European, but with a twist.

Chic ambiance and carefully crafted menu keeps the guest satiated and entertained at Amelia.

With a dedicated veg kitchen and an elegant, elephant-inspired ambience, it offers both à la carte and rotating thali options. The menu has recently been updated to include seasonal specialities, new starters like sangri kofta, innovative mocktails, and house-made chutneys—making this a standout spot for refined regional flavours in an upscale setting.

Arts Café

Tucked inside the Art House at NMACC, Arts Café is a serene, art-filled space with a stylish vibe and spacious layout. Its concise but creative menu features standout cocktails like the Fluffy Paloma and Popcorn Negroni, paired perfectly with BBQ Chicken Wings or Lamb Kebabs. Vegetarians will enjoy the Fire-Roasted Shishito Peppers and Arts Café Naan platter. Don’t miss mains like Corn Agnolotti or Crisp Skin Seabass, and end on a high with the luscious Chocolate & Kahlua Cremeux.
