Our Story

About Stellaris

Industry awards

Founded 2019

Born from a passion
for the extraordinary

Stellaris was founded in 2019 in Mumbai's Bandra West by Chef Rohan Verma — a decade-long veteran of acclaimed kitchens in Paris, London and Tokyo. His vision was simple but demanding: build the restaurant that does not yet exist in India.

From the hand-blown glassware to the bespoke playlist that evolves by the hour, every element of Stellaris was chosen to create a mood that is both intimate and electric — a place where a two-hour dinner quietly becomes four.

Today, Stellaris holds 28 industry awards and is consistently rated the finest dining destination in Mumbai. But the team's ambition remains unchanged: to make your next visit better than your last.

Mission

Redefine every meal

To deliver dining experiences so precise, warm and memorable that our guests measure every other restaurant by the Stellaris standard.

Vision

Set the benchmark

To be recognised as the definitive expression of modern Indian fine dining — at home and internationally — without ever compromising on substance.

What We Stand For

Our Values

Six principles that govern every decision we make at Stellaris.

Quality Without Compromise

We source only the finest seasonal ingredients — from Himalayan truffles to day-boat fish — and treat every component of a dish with equal reverence.

Genuine Hospitality

Warmth and precision are not opposites. We believe every guest deserves to feel seen, celebrated and deeply at home from the moment they arrive.

Relentless Innovation

Our menu is never static. Chefs rotate seasonal tasting menus, experiment with technique and push the boundary of what Indian fine dining can be.

Global Perspective

We weave French technique, Italian soul and East Asian precision into a singular Stellaris identity — rooted in India, influenced by the world.

Ethical Sourcing

We partner with 12 independent farms and ethical suppliers, change our menu with the seasons and work to reduce our footprint with every service.

The Art of the Occasion

A meal at Stellaris is never just dinner. It is a ritual — from the first aperitif to the last petit four — designed to linger in your memory.
