Kadak is the newest addition to the dining scene at ICONIQA Hotels near Mumbai International Airport, brings a fresh take on Pan-Indian cuisine where familiar flavors meet inventive presentation. The restaurant blends nostalgia with modern flair, reimagining India’s diverse culinary heritage for today’s diner. Kadak is designed as a multi-experience space, with distinct zones to suit every mood.
The Café offers a cozy corner for coffee and quick bites. The Diner, the heart of Kadak, serves hearty meals in a lively setting perfect for group dining. Private Dining Nooks provide intimate spaces for small gatherings. The Terrace Garden offers a calm, open-air retreat under the Mumbai sky. The Bar celebrates India’s growing craft spirits scene, with cocktails inspired by local ingredients and stories from spice-infused martinis to tropical twists on classics.
Visually, Kadak pairs cultural artistry with contemporary design. The interiors feature AI-reimagined Warli art with playful Mona Lisa-inspired motifs, antique tiffins, hand-painted walls, and modern cement finishes turning the space into a living gallery that reflects India’s creative evolution.
The menu reflects Kadak’s “India, remixed” philosophy — not fusion, but updated Indian cuisine presented with imagination. Standout dishes include Black Chickpea Rasam with Chana Jor Garam, Papdi Chaat with Salmon Tartare, and Pulled Duck Samosa with Hoisin Glaze.
Grills like Tandoori Morel with Toasted Walnuts and mains such as Konkan Seafood & Red Rice Risotto bring a global touch to regional flavors. The Chaat Bar adds fun with mini Kulcha Bombs in butter chicken or four-cheese truffle flavors, while desserts like Jaggery Kadak Cheesecake and Reconstructed Serradura reinterpret Indian classics. The highlight is the Fruit Platter, a whimsical, Parisian-style dessert inspired by fruit itself. With its blend of design, culture, and creative cooking, it promises to be a standout destination for travelers and locals alike.
