At Tuskers, the vegetarian dining experience sheds all stereotypes. Nestled inside Mumbai’s only five-star hotel with a dedicated meat-free kitchen, it feels like stepping onto a culinary stage where tradition and luxury meet.
Here, Maharaj Pratabh Giri, a craftsman of cuisines spanning Gujarat, Rajasthan, South Indian and Jain specialties, curates plates that are as rooted in heritage as they are in flavour.
At lunch, their thali is the pièce de résistance: a medley of textures and spices choreographed with razor-sharp precision. The interiors channel colonial-era nostalgia but with just the right dose of swagger. Think warm leather, walnut chesterfields, dramatic elephant motifs, and wooden finishes that whisper class rather than scream opulence.
The elephant inspiration isn’t random either; it’s a nod to these gentle giants, vegetarian royalty who remain a symbol of strength and grace in Indian culture.
But Tuskers isn’t just vegetarian, it’s storytelling through ingredients. From meticulously sourced Rajasthani ker sangri to fiery Mathaniya mirch paneer, every dish carries the weight of food memories passed down generations while slipping effortlessly into modern palates.
A sensory experience wrapped in quiet luxury, Tuskers redefines vegetarian food, not as an afterthought, but as the star of the show.
