Angelina is a restaurant that takes inspiration by fusing Japanese and Italian cuisine. This place carries unconventional presentations that make the experience magical and worthy. Chefs serve a Kaiseki menu, a traditional Japanese multi-course meal, featuring dishes that reflect their daily learnings and use ingredients that are at their peak freshness on that day. In Angelina, they don’t believe in rigid menus, a correct order to eat dishes, a dress code or cutlery. So, are you ready to get your hands dirty?
