A restaurant located in Pune’s wine country has gained international recognition after being named among the world’s most visually stunning restaurants for 2026.
The honour comes from Prix Versailles, a globally respected award programme that celebrates excellence in architecture, interior design, and hospitality spaces.
The restaurant, Rosso, is situated within Hotel Irada and has been praised for blending elegant design with a memorable dining experience.
Inspired by Southern Italian culture, the venue combines sophisticated interiors, carefully curated spaces, and a culinary concept that reflects Mediterranean influences while incorporating local elements.
Each year, Prix Versailles selects exceptional restaurants from around the world that stand out for their architectural creativity, atmosphere, and ability to offer guests an immersive experience beyond food alone.
The 2026 list features only 16 restaurants from various countries, highlighting venues where design and gastronomy work together to create a unique destination.
Rosso’s inclusion places India alongside renowned dining establishments from cities such as Dubai, Hong Kong, London, Vienna, Cape Town, and Los Angeles.
The recognition reflects the growing global appreciation for Indian hospitality projects that combine world-class aesthetics with distinctive culinary offerings.
With this achievement, Rosso joins an elite group of international restaurants that are setting new benchmarks for design-led dining, further strengthening India’s presence on the global culinary and hospitality map.
