ADDONI’S: A JOURNEY ACROSS CULTURES, FLAVOURS AND MOMENTS
ADDONI, DELHI
From Features Desk
In the heart of South Delhi, Addoni’s unfolds as an immersive dining destination shaped by travel, memory, and the pleasure of shared moments. Inspired by the life and journeys of Riccardo Addoni, the space brings together global cuisine, thoughtfully crafted cocktails, and an atmosphere designed to feel both inviting and inspiring. At its core, Addoni’s is about movement across cultures, flavours, and experiences that linger long after the meal ends.
The concept is rooted in a deep love for exploration and the belief that food is one of the most powerful ways to tell stories. Each visit feels like stepping into a chapter of that journey, where familiar comforts meet unexpected discoveries. Whether guests arrive for a quiet dinner or an evening that unfolds into celebration, Addoni’s adapts effortlessly, encouraging them to settle in and stay awhile.
The space itself is designed to offer choice and fluidity. There are intimate corners meant for lingering conversations, open areas that hum with energy, and settings equally suited to relaxed meals and spirited gatherings. Every section flows seamlessly into the next, allowing guests to move naturally through the restaurant while always feeling at ease. It is a space created not to impress at first glance, but to reveal its warmth over time.
At the heart of Addoni’s is its globally inspired menu-bold, inventive, and deeply satisfying. Drawing flavours from across the world, the kitchen balances indulgence with comfort, celebrating contrasts without overwhelming the palate. Standout dishes such as the soft shell crab ghee roast offer richness and familiarity, while the chargrilled prawn balchao delivers layered spice and depth. The truffle and lamb ragu reflects the kitchen’s ability to marry heartiness with refinement.
Desserts are treated as experiences rather than afterthoughts. The signature tiramisu offers a comforting classic done exceptionally well, while the bombe Alaska brings a touch of theatre to the table, delighting both visually and on the palate.
Each dish is designed to evoke emotion,
nostalgia, surprise, and joy, making the meal
as memorable as it is satisfying.
Complementing the dining experience is
Long Bar by Addoni’s, an intimate, moody
space defined by woody interiors and low
lighting. The cocktail program is playful yet
precise, built around artisanal techniques and
imaginative flavour pairings. Signature drinks
such as the Sticky Samba and the
Cheesecake Punch reflect a spirit of curiosity,
turning each cocktail into a journey of its
own.
Adding another layer to the experience is CICII, a members-only party space that
introduces a vibrant, high-energy contrast.
Designed for curated celebrations, it brings
music, movement, and mood together in a
setting meant for nights that extend well
beyond the expected.
What ultimately defines Addoni’s is its sense of hospitality. It feels like being welcomed into the home of a well-travelled host-warm, generous, and personal. More than a restaurant or bar, Addoni’s is a destination where stories are shared, connections are made, and journeys continue long after the table is cleared.
