Pune 03rd June, 2025: Pune, where traditional heritage, love for food and an emerging cosmopolitan culture thrive, is getting a new restaurant that combines all of these aspects through Indian delicacies. SALT, a famed restaurant chain with multiple outlets in Chennai, Bengaluru and Hyderabad is debuting in Maharastra with a new launch in Pune. The much-loved restaurant is known for its modern takes on Indian classics while rediscovering the richness of our cuisine.
SALT promises bold flavours in your comfort meals that arrive on a refined plating, enhancing your visit. Whether you’re coming for a family dinner, celebratory gathering or a corporate luncheon, it is perfect to have a good time over great meals. The ambience reflects the vibe of the place, where Indian textures meet contemporary aesthetics in a modern, welcoming space.
Talking about choosing Pune as the next location for expansion, Chef Balaji Balachander says, “Location is key when we want to reach more customers. Pune is home to discerning food lovers who value authenticity and innovation, something which describes our ethos perfectly. At SALT, we don’t reinvent Indian food—we rediscover it. Every dish is rooted in something personal and nostalgic, yet plated in a way that’s clean and contemporary. Pune, I believe, is more than ready for this kind of celebration.”
SALT’s menu is a tribute to Indian food reflecting the real taste and soul of flavours from North to South. The signature must-try includes Charcoal Chicken Tikka, Galauti Kebabs, Parda Jhinga Kebab, Tokri Chaat and Gunpowder Potatoes. The light and flavourful curries like Alleppey Fish Curry, Ras-Bhari Kofta Curry, or the Special Dal Makhani will keep your tastebuds dancing. For the final round of desserts, opt for Gulab Jamun Brûlée , Chironji Makhana ki Kheer or the cooling Kesar Kulfi.
To pair with the food, they also have a range of interesting cocktails inspired by Indian spices. The Nut Khut Bourbon offers a symphony of flavours of hazelnut, rosemary and apple juice with Bourbon whiskey; Bagh brings a blend of Gin Lemongrass and curry leaves with zesty ginger ale.
With such a rare and refreshing combination of cocktails to pair with flavourful delicacies, every sip and bite at SALT will enrich your dining experience. The restaurant can accommodate 80 people in a comfortable setting.
