Koi Bar

Koi Bar lives in the Penthouse of The St. Regis Mumbai (Level 37), where design, spirit, and view converge. It’s conceived as a destination for “all things Pisco”, channeling Peruvian heritage and contemporary cocktail craft. Stepping in, you’ll notice the space is moody and luxurious: deep green and rust tones, antique Peruvian mirrors, soft lamps, plush sofas, and tall glass windows giving you panoramic views over Lower Parel and the Mumbai skyline. The ceiling height and generous glazing heighten the sense of elevation. The menu is ambitious. On the drinks side, Koi Bar offers a long selection of Pisco-based cocktails, as well as Tequila, Mezcal, classic spirits, and imaginative signature creations such as Milk Punch, Cocoa Negroni, Lima Sour, Bañera (Bathtub), El Capitan, Passion Fruit Pisco Sour and more. Cocktails are often theatrical: some require long preparation time, layered flavors, and careful balancing. On the food side, Koi Bar offers “tapas / Nikkei-leaning small plates” (Peruvian + Japanese influenced) such as edamame truffle dumplings, duck tacos, corn shiso, truffle maki, eggplant tacos, and anticuchos (grilled skewers) with sauces. The food is complementary, not the primary focus. Koi Bar is best at night. Reviewers mention it opens ~5 pm, and closes around 1 am. It has become a hotspot for nightlife, especially for those who want a bar with atmosphere, cocktail focus, and views rather than a loud club scene. Because it is in the Penthouse, space is premium, the seating is curated, and the view is integral to the experience. Koi Bar also shares a proximity / affiliation with Koishii, the hotel’s Nikkei restaurant, located on the same floor, which sometimes complements the bar for dining + drink pairing. In sum: Koi Bar is a design-forward, sky-view cocktail lounge, with Pisco as its signature spirit, Asian/Latin small bites, and an elevated nightlife allure.
