Tucked away in the heart of Colaba, where Mumbai’s pace softens and heritage whispers through every corner, Neuma is a love letter to the city’s multifaceted spirit. It’s a space that feels both intimate and grand, a mood as much as a meal, where every detail speaks of thought and intention.
For 100 remarkable weeks, Neuma has been quietly reshaping the way the city dines, serving up an experience that’s equal parts comforting and adventurous. It’s a celebration of Mumbai’s love for flavours and the world’s finest culinary traditions, brought together under one stunning roof. Housed in a heritage property that hums with old-world charm, Neuma’s interiors effortlessly blend nostalgia and modernity.
Sunlit courtyards and tastefully designed nooks invite you in, but it’s the food and drinks that truly hold you hostage. Chef Suvir Saran’s menu doesn’t shout—it speaks in an assured whisper, balancing indulgence with restraint.
Start with the Tuscan Strawberry Gnudi: pillowy ricotta dumplings that melt in your mouth, the sweetness of the strawberries cutting through like a refreshing breeze. Then there’s the Truffled Capellini, its silky strands wrapped in just enough butter to make you pause and appreciate simplicity done right. Seafood lovers will swoon over the Paella Classica, every bite layered with briny, saffron-scented perfection.
For something heartier, the Braised Lamb Shank arrives perfectly cooked, the meat sliding off the bone with no effort, while the Roasted Cauliflower Steak caters to vegetarians with a rich harissa dressing that’s smoky and bold without trying too hard.
Over at the bar, Feruzan Bilimoria’s cocktails feel like an extension of the food—balanced, nuanced, and undeniably stylish. The menu is an ode to Mumbai’s cosmopolitan spirit, with the city’s vibrant energy in mind. Sip on Kashmiri Winters, a bourbon cocktail kissed with saffron that lingers just enough to keep you sipping, or try the Granny Spice, where nostalgic spices meet crisp, refreshing flavours for the perfect balance of warmth and zest. Nothing on the menu screams for attention, but every drink quietly commands it.
And desserts? You don’t leave Neuma without the Burnt Basque Cheesecake. It’s everything you want in a dessert—sweet, creamy, and deeply satisfying, with just the right amount of caramelized bitterness to keep things interesting.
Neuma’s offerings don’t aim to dazzle—they seduce with quiet confidence, reminding you that craft is in the details. Every plate, every glass feels like it’s meant to be exactly what it is: effortlessly brilliant.
As Neuma celebrates 100 weeks, it’s not just about looking back at what’s been achieved but stepping boldly into the future. New flavours, fresh ideas, and a thoughtful reinvention of beloved favourites are all part of the journey ahead. With a focus on creativity, sustainability, and constantly elevating the dining experience, Neuma promises that this milestone is just the beginning.
