With dim lights, stone walls and a pan-Asian menu, Shiro is on its way to become a lunch and dinner destination too. Shiro’s fresh menu maintains its style and still holds onto most of its appetizers from the previous menu. So you needn't be disappointed if you had a few favourites.
The proportionate mix of pan-Asian cuisines offers variety and in parts sticks to some comfort dishes. The tightly wrapped maki rolls had fresh and crunchy vegetables and the sticky rice was perfectly seasoned. The Crispy Duck Maki with crisp hoisin-glazed meat was a sushi we’ve never seen before, as was the zucchini-wrapped slightly sweet Miso Aubergine Sushi, which took us away from our general dislike of aubergine. The Spicy Prawn and Avocado Maki – had the prawn on top like California rolls – and the Spicy Salmon Negi are both safe bets if you don’t want to be adventurous.

Skewers, served on mini grills pose as the right tapas when you’re lounging with a few drinks. Honey Black Bean Prawn Skewers and the Thai Spiced Basa Skewers are opposites. The former is packed with sweet and bean flavours, while the latter is sweeter in comparison. The Teriyaki Potato Skewers are barely doused in sauce and are best avoided; the Korean Mushroom Skewers which were sweet and spicy will be best paired with a pint of chilled beer. Both Indonesian Grilled Chicken Skewers - doused in sambal sauce and Vietnamese Chicken Skewers - marinated in a sweet chilli sauce, were perfect for the Indian palate.
Chicken Summer Rolls – rice paper rolls from Vietnam, stuffed with fresh mint and cabbage leaves and shredded chicken, were refreshing and light with crispy, crunchy vegetables. Something we’d love to order in the summers.
The highlight of the meal – Miso Black Cod served with raw papaya slaw – was a classic preparation with subtle miso flavours and beautifully cooked fish. The Miso Citrus New Zealand Lamb Chops in a light citrus and miso marination, served with a sweet potato mash had delicate citrus-flavoured lamb. The Chillean Sea Bass with Chili Lime Reduction had a subtle zesty lime flavour, with a light tinge of chilli.

The mains are quite similar to most Asian-speciality restaurants. Garlic Fried Rice made using sticky rice had a garnish of fried garlic and paired well with the Assorted Mushrooms with Spicy Thai Herb Sauce, which had an earthy flavour but didn’t match-up to its promise of spicy. The coconut-flavoured Chicken Massaman Curry was aromatic and light, unlike most coconut-based curries we’ve tried. The Yaki Udon Noodles were slightly mushy and the vegetables tossed in provided a much needed crunch. The Vietnamese BBQ Eggplant will make you love eggplants. The grilled eggplant had a smoky flavour from the fried onions and garlic on top, and the peanuts added a crunch and their unique flavour to the soft vegetable.
Sour cherries soaked in satori sauce were stuffed in the soft Chocolate and Sour Cherry Dome, which was made with a rich chocolate mousse – the dessert is apt for those who don’t have a sweet tooth. Sesame came out as a hero in the warm Chocolate and Sesame Pops - balls of sesame and ganache. Served in a martini glass, the pops sit on a bed of vanilla ice-cream and are topped with cream.

Subtle and fresh flavours are the mainstays of the new menu. The variety is innovative with enough options for a lounge as well as a dine-in. Despite several Asian-speciality restaurants in the city, Shiro’s menu promises to make a mark of its own.
Must Try: Miso Aubergine Sushi, Honey Black Bean Prawn Skewers, Miso Black Cod, Assorted Mushrooms in Spicy Thai Herb Sauce and Chocolate and Sour Cherry Dome

Interiors nicely done with good oriental feel to the place.Korean delicacies are special and a must have. Spring roll-flavoured with lemon grass very unique taste. Thai curry-green & red saucesimply delicious.The retro music is great and nobody cares if you decide to stand on the tables/ couches and dance.The drinks are a little expensiv. All in all, a really fun night out.

It was a wonderful experience at shiros last weekend . It rocks as usual . The music , food, service and ambience all good. Kudos to the team.

I go here normally on a wednesday night when the salsa night is on! I love salsa dancing and so i enjoy dancing here since the place is quite spacious ! A very expensive place for food and alcohol..Its quite nice on a saturday night as well .. They have some awesome house music playing and the crowd here is very chic! But for me this place is the best way to destress after a long day by dancing the salsa ! we have also performed here for the salsa nights!

Was here with a group of friends celebrating a special occasion, had a variety of dishes which were all great- Spiced potatoes, Spring roll-, Green Thai curry, Burnt garlic rice.. and it has one of best ambiances in the city which we had ever seen.. worth the price for very special occassions otherwise it is just too expensive! Celebs also frequent here a lot.

One of the best ambiances of a lounge in Mumbai. The giant Buddha statues and the overall zen architecture is something one will not find anywhere else in Mumbai. Unlike other lounges this one is quite spacious with a separate second dining area on the first floor separating the dance floor and the bar area. Though on the expensive side, the cocktails here are a must try. The food is mostly Japanese and Korean stuff so it might not appeal to all specifically the vegetarians.

Such a beautiful ambiance which wins over everything! Been here just once with hubby, Had a salad which was nice and fresh and crunchy (not soggy),just the way I like it! Hubby had sushi and loved it,so did his friends. Very soothing ambiance,cannot praise it enough. Loved it,would love to go back. This is specially awesome for a date night.

Located next to the Hard Rock Cafe, this place is very big in size. They have adopted a Egyptian Theme to decorate their Ambience which is worth the compliments. They have a separate bar section and a dance floor for group parties. The time I went here, it was very less crowded and very quiet. Had not ordered for any food as we had already had our dinner.

I was here on a Saturday night.The place is hulking and hence sets itself apart because being in Mumbai, we know how cramped clubs can get. . The interiors and ambiance is breath taking. Very few places i have been in Mumbai can match shiro's when it comes to interiors. A lavish area, two bars and a separate dining zone is what the place offers. The dance floor is pretty big and the dj played music with videos on the big screen. Music was mostly commercial and repeated. No new songs were played. The good thing about this place is that it strictly entertains couple entries only.The dining zone is elevated and hence guests who just came to have a good dinner without having people dancing around them, are pampered with just what they wanted. Drinks are expensive. Now i cannot really say if they were costly or cheap, but i found them expensive. Two pints of ultra costed us 800 bucks. However, given the location and the crowd that visits the place, one can say it is reasonable. The food was piquant and rich. One of the waiters told me they imported spices from different places to get the appropriate taste. Overall, a beautiful place to be on a Saturday night, but if you are a person who wouldn't wanna spend much lavishly, you really cannot expect much.

Had been here with some Japanese delegates who were visiting us for some work. Firstly the choice of Shiro was suggested by them as they had searched on internet found this place close to their hometown food Tokyo.. We had the set menu lunch meal and it was indeed worth the money. Loved the portions. Desserts were also very good. Sure gonna be back

Had visited this place after my exams and really this place is perfect to party on saturdays...dj henry spills good music. sound quallity was ok they need to improve more on sound, this place though attracts good crowd, ambience is awesome. Drinks are moderately priced. Apple martini, mojitos are best. Food includes wide range of japnese , thai, korean cuisine.

We hit Shiro at around 12, this saturday after chilling out at Hard Rock for a few. The place is great, Its an all round riot, folks dancing on pedestials, tables and what not.
Great place to unwind on the weekend, Awesome crowd, food was pretty cheap as well. Will visit Again.

More power to ya Shiro!

Had gone there with friends for lunch. Ambiance is really nice. Food is also awesome. We had relatively lesser crowd in the noon but am sure the place becomes much more lively in the evening. Overall perfect place to hangout with both family as well as friends. Had a bad experience with the Valet though. In spite of telling the parking guy thrice that he should not disturb my seat settings, I find my seat reclined at almost 120 degrees. Hope the valet guy was not using my car to take his afternoon nap. When I registered a complaint with the manager over the phone I was told they would get back after looking into it.
