What a wonderful food and service , really enjoyed every bit of it. Staff was humble and explained all dishes in detail. This was my first time with sushi and being a vegetarian I had my own doubts about sushi. But I was not disappointed , moreover Tapas was very different in presentation and taste.Mocktail also implicitly proved their claim of experiment with food. Provides valet parking, live music , though space is very limited but they have managed it well. Only suggestion is girl at the entrance seems lacking hospitality skills , we waited there without her acknowledgement for few minutes ,since she was over phone( though talking to other customers only) Even on our interruption we didn't got any answer, she simply neglected us.

Pa Pa Ya is a modern take on classic Asian food where drinking and dining is a thrilling experience full of molecular gastronomy. The journey starts with a refresher in the form of watermelon in lemongrass and chilli foam with liquid nitrogen served on oyster shells. Quite a start! Get yourself a nice drink and take a deep dive in the vast menu. You really have to read a lot and think hard! Don't worry, the staff here is super friendly and will help you find the right things for you. The menu is filled with lots of dishes in small to medium servings which makes it fun since you keep ordering lots of them and pamper your taste buds. The sushi here is excellent with lots of classic as well as house special rolls to choose from. Tapas (small plates) menu is huge where you will always find something that suits your mood of the day. Do try the Edamame beans which you don't find at many places! They also have a special spicy version of the beans which I have not had anywhere in the world. Sliders were interesting and main course items are superb. It must be mentioned that apart from Chicken, their pork dishes are really good too. You top of your experience with amazing desserts. While all desserts are delicious, you can't miss the chocolate ball on fire (check out the video I uploaded). I would conclude by saying Papaya is a perfect place for special occasions and though it is on the expensive side it is not too crazy like five star restaurants. It is conveniently located in Colaba behind Taj hotel. All in all a must try for everyone!
