Our Story

Inspired by the way Latin American restaurants around the world celebrate their heritage through vibrant flavours, lively atmospheres, and deep-rooted traditions, Mestizo was conceived to fill a gap in Delhi’s dining scene. Despite the natural harmony between Latin zest and Indian spices, the city had long lacked a truly authentic Latin American experience.

The concept was shaped to go beyond just food - encompassing music, design, and hospitality that reflect the vibrant soul of Latin America while resonating with Indian sensibilities. Mestizo brings this vision to life - a wholesome gastronomic journey that fuses the bold, spirited essence of Latin America with the comforting warmth of Indian masalas.
