Father’s Day only comes around once a year, and there’s nobody else who deserves a proper meal out more than him. He’s the one who sat through every school play even when you were just a prop, drove you to every cricket practice early in the morning, fixed things around the house, and somehow always had the right advice at the right moment. Mumbai has no shortage of great restaurants, but finding the right one for Dad, where the food is exactly what he likes, the service makes him feel loved, and the meal ends on a sweet note, takes a little more thought than a last-minute plan. This Father’s Day, go the extra mile. Find a table that matches the occasion, order something he would never splurge on, and let love do the rest. These are the Mumbai restaurants worth a reservation. He’ll say you didn’t have to. Book it anyway.
