The Restaurant 

Born in Dubai in 2014 and introduced to Mumbai’s Bandra Kurla Complex in 2018, Trèsind is widely regarded as the birthplace of innovative Indian cuisine. Its name, a blend of the French word “Très,” meaning “very” and “Ind” for Indian, reflects its ethos of redefining bold Indian flavors through a modern, progressive lens. Conceptualized by Passion F&B and led by the acclaimed Chef Himanshu Saini, Trèsind has consistently pushed the boundaries of traditional Indian gastronomy. With accolades including recognition in the inaugural Dubai Michelin Guide and listings in MENA’s 50 Best Restaurants, it stands as a true pioneer in contemporary Indian fine dining.

The Mumbai outpost carries forward the legacy with a design-forward space and an immersive culinary experience that engages all the senses. Under the stewardship of Chef Sarfaraz Ahmed, the menu blends time-honored Indian techniques with inventive presentations and Gueridon-style service. Each dish is a refined interpretation of regional Indian cuisine, imaginative, visual, and rooted in authenticity, offering a sensory journey that celebrates both heritage and innovation. With locations in Dubai, Kuwait, and now Mumbai, Trèsind continues to elevate the global narrative of Indian cuisine.
