“Worlds collide and time stops in this Mogul mansion turned alfresco Mediterranean restaurant.”

Olive Qutub is a hideaway where good food, laughter, culture and conversation come together in a delightful melting pot. Fashion, art, music and style fuse here to create an unforgettable Mediterranean mosaic.

Dappled sunlight on soft arm chairs. A white pebbled courtyard punctuated by bougainvillea. Worlds collide and time stops in this Mogul mansion turned alfresco Mediterranean restaurant. Casual elegance with its beautiful white walls, a vast Banyan canopy, and a stunning, star-lit, and a tree-top terrace bar under the shadow of the Qutub Minar makes it the best restaurant in Delhi. Welcome to a space so stunning that the Condé Nast Traveler US rated this multi-award winning restaurant as one of the world’s best new restaurants in 2004.
