Every eating experience at The Taj Mahal Hotel defines itself by authenticity, excellent service, world-class cuisine and a receptive, warm and welcoming ambience. The dining here is unrivalled. Each one of our specialty and multi-cuisine restaurants has something special to offer. Machan is a lively 24-hour cafe. The House of Ming was the first Chinese restaurant in New Delhi. Wasabi by Morimoto is a global favourite and Rick’s has been one of the most revered bars in the city for quite some time. And to checkout without an exquisite meal at Varq or the Grill Room would be a regrettable oversight indeed.

Rick’s serves innovative cocktails along with great music and delicious Southeast Asian cuisine. Choose from the 101 Martini menu or select from our large selection of international single malts, spirits, and wide range of rare whiskies.

As the name suggests, the décor is based on Indian wildlife, reminiscent of the days where ‘Machans’ were built for game hunting for princes.

House Of Ming : Being the premier Chinese restaurant in the city, the glitzy clientele come from far and wide for this haute cuisine. Its sumptuous offerings reflect two of the finest Chinese cooking styles, Cantonese and Schezuan. From starters to desserts, the menu takes you through a journey of delightful creations by our master chefs. We also pride ourselves with the finest selection of dim sum.

House of Ming is known for its Ying-Yang concept that is applied to designing and serving meals. The concepts are based on the delicate balance of hot, sweet and sour flavors and the crunchy and soft flavors. Every single dish has its distinct flavors that are carefully married with other dishes. Items like Crispy Spinach, Chicken Aniseed, and Toffee Banana were debuted here and have become an essential menu item for every local Chinese restaurant since.

Color plays a significant role in the restaurant’s décor. Turquoise, the primary color, symbolizes serenity. The crockery and décor are a mix of green, blue and white because all these colors have a great significance in the Ming dynasty history. Blue represents peace, tranquility, stability, harmony, unity and is associated with immortality. The art of white and blue porcelain was perfected during the Ming dynasty.

House of Ming has long been the favorite of Delhi’s elite socialites, politicians, fashion designers, film stars, journalists and sports figures.

Varq seamlessly married the traditional Indian themes with a simple palette of bespoke furnishings. Mixing timber, creamy leather and gold textures creates a contemporary and classic ambiance that immerses diners into a lusciously rich experience surrounded by artifacts and treasures that exist to frame Grand Master Chef Hemant Oberoi’s cuisine.

Chef Oberoi has taken Indian food to a different dimension with new techniques, innovative presentations and usage of organic produce and spices. He has reinvented Indian food with unusual creations and pairings. The menu is a rich accumulation of Indian recipes evolved to the next level. Varq retains the Indian traditional way of cooking while using exotic ingredients like sea bass, diver’s scallops, goose liver, halibut, sand crab and Karachi prawns.

The dessert station is a visual treat that teases diners throughout their meals. A kulfi trolley, a masala chai crème brulee, and ice cream with baileys rabdi are the finale to a grand meal. Varq offers separate dessert and tea menus or thoughtful pairings of both with teas that have been handpicked and blended exclusively for the restaurant.

The presentations of Chef Oberori’s exquisite culinary inventions are served amongst work by celebrated artist Anjolie Ela Menon.
