Haveli 2.0’s ‘The Tasting Room’ Might Just be the Luxury Indian Lunch Experience You’re Craving for
The Tasting Room by Haveli introduces an exclusive luxury lunch-only dining concept in Dubai, blending Indian heritage flavours with modern fine dining techniques through immersive tasting menus and theatrical presentations.
Dubai, 19 May 2026:
Known for its vibrant nightlife and strong presence among Dubai’s Indian and Asian expat community, Haveli 2.0 is now introducing a more refined and immersive concept focused entirely on elevated gastronomy. Operating from Tuesday to Sunday between 12pm and 8pm, The Tasting Room offers guests a sophisticated escape from the traditional lunch experience.
Built around the concept of “Heritage Reimagined,” the menu celebrates the bold and nostalgic flavours of India while incorporating modern global culinary techniques. The result is a carefully curated dining journey that combines storytelling, innovation and artistic presentation.
Premium ingredients including Black Winter Truffle, Siberian Baerii Caviar, Shiitake Kombu Dashi, A2 Cow Ghee and Wild Honey are thoughtfully used across the menu to enhance depth and flavour. Signature dishes such as the Laal Maas Cigar, Black Garlic Paneer Candy and Royal Truffle Khichdi showcase the restaurant’s modern interpretation of classic Indian flavours.
Guests begin their experience with a complimentary Bread and Butter Board featuring artisanal breads and infused cultured butters. The menu continues with visually dramatic and flavour-packed creations including Treasure Box Pani Puri, Burrata served over hot butter chicken at the table, Tamatar Chaat in a traditional clay kullhad and a decadent Nutella Jalebi Cheesecake finale.
To complement the culinary journey, The Tasting Room also offers a specially curated wine and cocktail pairing programme designed to elevate each course and enhance the overall experience.
Diners can choose from multiple tasting formats including The Executive Precision business lunch, a 7-course tasting menu, a 9-course experience and The Grand Odyssey — an elaborate 11-course journey starting from AED 150 per person.
“Tasting Room by Haveli is a completely different space, something the market hasn’t experienced before, where food is not just served, it is felt, remembered and talked about. Haveli has always been about creating moments people do not forget. Nightlife was just the beginning,” said Yogi, Founder and Chairman, The Tasting Room by Haveli.
Limited to just 100 guests daily, The Tasting Room by Haveli aims to deliver an intimate and highly sought-after culinary experience that guests will remember long after the final course.
