Hearth on the First
Grill / Barbecue
Hearth on the First sits above the Eros Cinema in Churchgate, within one of Bombay’s most recognisable Art Deco landmarks. The kitchen is built around fire, using open flame to shape ingredient-led, seasonal dishes with depth, char, and restraint. The menu draws from memory, technique, and slow processes, staying grounded in simplicity. The space is intimate and personal, defined by handcrafted ceramics, custom woodwork, and thoughtful details that reflect the city’s character and pace.
Chef Dhriti Mankame & Chef Mehul ‘Sabby’ Sabharwal
Chefs Dhriti and Sabby lead the kitchen at Hearth on the First. They cook from memory, using local ingredients to shape dishes guided by instinct and patience. With global fine dining backgrounds, they focus on fire-led cooking that is direct and restrained, letting flavour and technique speak without excess.
