MANTAR – Where Affordable Luxury is Served Deliciously
Mantar Restaurant, Lucknow
A Taste of Awadhi Elegance, Reimagined
MANTAR is more than a restaurant—it is our ode to Lucknow’s soulful charm, reinterpreted for the modern palate. Located in the historic heart of Hazratganj, this unique hospitality project invites guests to immerse themselves in the grace of Awadhi fine dining, framed through thoughtful design and cultural storytelling.
An Invitation to Experience “Affordable Luxury”
At MANTAR, we redefined Affordable Luxury not as a compromise, but as a promise—an invitation to step into a space that is intimate yet elevated, rooted yet relevant. Here, every detail is intentional, every gesture considered. The result is a dining experience where quality and elegance are accessible without diminishing the richness of the experience.
Design as a Silent Host
Our approach was to create a space where minimalist architecture doesn’t overshadow, but rather enhances the dining journey. Clean lines, uncluttered layouts, and a restrained color palette set the stage for flavors to take center stage. The interiors—warm, earthy, and texturally rich—evoke both calm and belonging. Lighting is curated for mood, corners are softened for comfort, and textures are layered to create a quiet sense of indulgence.
A Dialogue Between Past and Present
MANTAR’s design language draws from Lucknow’s architectural and craft heritage—arches, jaalis, hand-finished surfaces—yet reinterprets them in a contemporary format. Locally sourced materials and artisan-crafted details are seamlessly integrated into a modern framework. The interplay of light, texture, and form creates a rhythm that guides the eye and the senses without overwhelming them.
Every Inch with Intention
From the material palette beneath your feet to the rhythm of the ceiling overhead, from the ergonomic height of the tables to the comfortable sweep of each chair—nothing here is incidental. Like a chef perfecting a signature dish, we approached MANTAR with patience, artistry, and respect for authenticity.
A Space Meant to Endure
In MANTAR, ANB has created more than a restaurant. We’ve built an experience where material honesty, locally sourced art, and timeless aesthetics ensure that the space remains relevant and loved for years to come. It is a place where stories linger, meals become memories, and every guest leaves with a feeling of having been part of something both personal and exceptional.
