The location is simply awesome. Everyone knows it by now.
But the food really sucks here. We ordered prawns to go with the drinks, and I haven't had such bad prawns in any 5-star in India.
Couple of drinks, one starter, two desserts came to 3,500.
Go for the place, not for the food. And stick to food they can't mess up.

Its beautiful, no doubt. But if you order some snacks and expect it to taste good, you're in for a rude shock. I was warned about the food but thought, no restaurant can be THAT bad. I changed my mind instantly. Everything including the soya sauce has more salt than the arabian sea.
We had seats by the edge, which made the ambience even better, but the seats are not comfortable. Maybe its because I'm short, but I had to sit forward most of the night to be able to hear what my husband was saying, over all the music. Had a back ache at the end of it.
I must add the cocktails are good..

Sitting high up above Marine Drive the Dome is a gorgeous place to chill out. Large white sofas, low tables, oil burners add to the relaxed atmosphere. The drinks menu is reasonably long if not reasonably priced, but this isn't an every day bar. Its a special occasion, date, birthday place.
Its not the place to come to eat though. The tepenyaki and sushi is only average and at the price they charge, not good value for money. The crab tasted tinned and the sushi rice did not appear to be the real deal. It also has the tamest wasabi I have ever come across!
Go to see and be seen, its what its best at.

I like Dome. The view, the ambience, the service and the vibe. We should up at about 10:30pm on Sat night with 4 month old Rohan. When we got to the rooftop, the place was very busy with no tables available. Anyway, we were told that children were not allowed. I tried to argue that Rohan is technically an infant (under 2 years old) and not a child. Didn't work.
BUT they did say we could get a table at the poolside on the big lounge beds which was perfect. We were very comfortable with our glasses of Sula Dindori Reserves whilst Rohan was bobbing away to the chilled house music pumping from the speakers. We shared the Lindt molten chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream (20 min cooking time).
Awesome evening - great view of the queens necklace, fireworks somewhere in Colaba, very good service and the first time Rohan had been out past 10 pm and was enjoying every minute of it.

Excellent view, fantastic decor, the sun goes down and the romance quotient goes up. A great place to bring a date.
The food is ok, the desserts good, the drinks over priced however. Still worth a visit once in a while.
