View alone is what gains the restaurant its fan base. The regulars flock to the restaurant to sit near the windows to admire the sea waves crashing on the rocks earning the hotel its name Taj Lands End, Mumbai. The hotel’s location and it’s all day dining restaurant’s view is incredible. For maximum pleasure ask to be seated outside on the patio that overlooks the sea and awards the viewers an unbarred view of the city skyline. It’s truly a magnificent sight. ‘Vista’ named appropriately is a stunning restaurant that caters to its patrons 24/7. During the day it is comparatively quiet but gains momentum as the evening falls. As the sun drops in the sky and city comes alive with thousand lights the restaurant too gets invaded by the regulars and in house guests. The restaurant has the best F&B team in India so rest be assured you will be treated wonderfully.
The restaurant is headed by celebrated Chef Anirudh Roy who presents to the patrons one of the most lavish buffets in the city. He uses his skills to give to you a spread worthy of a king ranging desserts, Indian delicacies and western concoctions of endless variety. He gets his ingredients delivered from Paris’s Rungis market so that his food has an extra edge. Instead of picking up the a la carte menu opt to visit on a Sunday. It’s in his Sunday buffet that Chef Roy surpasses himself. You will find the quality of the buffet extremely high but surprisingly the cost is kept on the same level as the competition. The F&B manager Akshay Tripathi will make your visit a pleasant one. He and his staff will try to make your dining experience with them not only memorable but an exciting one.

For mains, Thai fish curry, prawn biryani, butter chicken, pan seared foie gras, atlantic smoked salmon, lobster Portuguese and crispy prawns are your best call. End the meal with pista gulab jamun and vanilla panna cotta. Give Vista a chance to impress you with their superb cooking and awesome view.
