Pune, the cultural capital of Maharashtra, is a melting pot of gastronomy adventures. The city is a compilation of pulsing palette that exhibits its love for food since the times of the Peshwas. Although, with time, Pune has transformed into a business centre and now serves a diverse fusion of regional and worldly cuisine. This makes Pune the most sought-after food destination in Maharashtra, after Mumbai. Upon all the Pune eateries I chanced upon during the last few years, here are a few best luxury dining restaurants featuring excellent foods besides plush decor, intimate ambience and unforgettable experiences.

Oceanus Cafe
We all have our favourite beachside cafes, but when we don’t have access to a beach, we must turn to cafe’s that offer a similar vibe. The Oceanus Cafe near Nyati County in Pune is a fabulous spot for enjoying a cold, refreshing drink overlooking a large pool and Egyptian architecture. With excellent scenic views on display, this poolside cafe is a great place in Pune to enjoy a cocktail or dine by the sunset. Oceanus Cafe elicits a unique Mediterranean vibe in the heart of a 25-acre well-landscaped estate.
Senses Pune
Senses Pune is an upscale restaurant in Koregaon Park, featuring competent decor and a la carte menu. Situated downtown, Senses Pune stars a subtle blend of Indian and European decor. Its humble interiors and occasional food festivals attract a corporate crowd with infrequent family groups. A little marked down for a 5-star property but still makes it one of the places in Pune to grab a quick lunch or dinner. As long as you are here for a self-serving buffet, you won’t be disappointed. Because otherwise, Senses Pune does not offer a prompt service!
Salsa Restaurant
Managed by The Corinthians, Salsa is a multi-cuisine restaurant in Southern Pune. Marked by a series of musician murals, this Salsa emancipates a retro and jazz ambience. While here, try the seafood, Sizzlers, salads, Italian specialities and unique desserts.
Sorriso Pune
Sorriso Pune is an Italian restaurant in Koregaon Park that serves freshly rolled pasta and other traditional delicacies. Furnished in Italian decor, Sorriso Pune features a wall stacked with diverse wines and humble seating to recreate a vineyard style cafe. To add authenticity to their food specialisation, they have even brought in an Italian Chef, who would leave no stone unturned to fish for compliments. I think that’s very typical of Italians!
Nevertheless, sometimes even a mediocre menu paired with a great Italian wine turns out to be a great experience. Whether crowded or not, Sorriso Pune extends a long wait time, as they might prepare your meal from scratch. So visit this place only if you have a lot of time in hand! Italians believe in slow dining, and Marriott Suites have flawlessly replicated that experience at Sorriso.
Pyramisa & Oasis Swim Up Bar
The Corinthians in Pune is a fantastic property sprawling with unique Egyptian style architecture. It’s a one of a kind resort in India, and each of its on-site bars and restaurants gets to enjoy its architectural wonders. Pyramisa is the multi-cuisine poolside resto-bar famed for its Indian cuisine. Oasis swim-up bar allows you the luxury of getting a drink while you are swimming. It’s a prerequisite actually – as the bar is inside the pool. For those who’d like to soak the ultimate luxury of relaxation, this bar is your go-to place in Pune. All this – while you are inundated, by Egyptian columns in the hindsight and a countryside cafe in foresight.
The 1st Brewhouse
You cannot visit Pune and not tour one of its breweries to witness fresh beer brewing and the privilege of tasting it. My rendezvous with Pune-based breweries began at 1st Brewhouse, one of Pune’s finest microbreweries towards the Southern end. I enjoyed sampling their wide variety of craft beers, along with finger-licking finger food such as the beer-battered onion rings. An excellent bar restaurant for a casual outing! The interiors of 1st Brewhouse feature an elegant restaurant, while the exteriors showcase casual seating facing the bronzed horses and the scenic landscape.
