WHAT’S HOT IN MUMBAI strongly recommends a visit to all those fine dining lovers who wish to swoon on the scintillating cocktails and submerge in the plethora of dynamic flavors. A PERFECT 10 STAR RATING for NAPOLI BY SHATRANJ's new menu Aperitivo Amore - Cocktails and Tapas Men
Our recommendations:
The Aperitivo Amore cocktail range is truly mesmerizing. Soft, lilting notes that make each of the cocktail a lilting symphony evoking warm memories of pure passion. The Mixology team has done a brilliant job on the curation. Cocktails which you must surely try are the ‘Anguria Fashioned’ and ‘Guava Spritz’.
The Guava Spritz has tingling notes from the Perry Road Gin by Strangers & Sons. This guava shrub concoction has an added dimension of some peach and jasmine sparkling which create a lilting, memorable taste. Just Wow!
The Anguria Fashioned is a botanical treat with the Don Julio Blanco touch. The citrus blends are magical and fascinating, the grilled watermelon is innovation personified. We were almost tempted to try the other variations on the menu, but surely will do that in the near future.
For small plates, we feasted on the Polpette Vegane, a Vegan Meatball creation with creamy, richly textured red bean gravy. Subtle tangy notes had rich flavour escalations from the herbs and garlic. Worth a try!
The Rotolo Caprese Di Zucchine are an absolute treat with creativity at its peak. Zucchini Caprese Rolls are cutely rolled with some cherry tomatoes, super-soft cheese – the balsamic and basil lend the flavour notes to a high.
The Gamberi All'Aglio, a Garlic Prawns dish have the unique twist of smoked garlic foam. The soft prawns are perfectly grilled, the juiciness in garlic and olive oil make this an absolute treat.

The showstoppers in Large plates are the Lasagne alle Verdure, a Vegetable Lasagne which is a comforting embrace of the Italian tradition. Each bite of the beautifully layered veggies leaves a harmonious blend. We loved the burnt edges which lent a earthy notes to the perfectly cooked dish. A must-try for anyone seeking a delicious and hearty vegetarian option!
The Rawas Green is a succulent rawas creation which is skilfully complemented with a vibrant green sauce, blended with fresh herbs, a hint of lemone which elevates the dish. An addition of seasonal veggies is a delightful balance freshness and richness.
NAPOLI BY SHATRANJ's Aperitivo Amore - Cocktails and Tapas Menu not only highlights the culinary artistry of Italian cuisine but also offers a refreshing take with their nouveau cocktail menu. Our gathering was both satisfying and endearing. WHAT’S HOT IN MUMBAI strongly recommends this true gem for fine dining lovers – and yes, we will be back to savor the remaining cocktail menu!
