Our Story

A love letter to Indian craft, plated with modern grace.

Nestled on Madhya Marg in Sector 26, Shaffa is Chandigarh's answer to modern Indian fine dining. Every corner — from the hand-forged brass lanterns to the black-and-white marble floors — is composed to feel like a slow evening you never want to leave.

Our kitchen honors the smoke of the tandoor, the patience of the dum, and the theatre of the table. The result is food that carries memory in every bite, and hospitality that lingers long after the last course.

A few of the notes our guests have left on Google. We save every one.

The interiors are jaw-dropping and the food matches every bit of it. The 24k Gold Kebab and Grand Naan are theatre on a plate. Best fine-dining in Tricity, hands down.

Went for our anniversary — the staff remembered our name, dimmed the lights over our table and finished the kulfi with a candle. Absolutely magical. Coming back for sure.

You feel like you've stepped into a luxury hotel in Delhi, not Chandigarh. Ambience, plating, cocktails — Shaffa nails every detail. Worth every rupee.

The kakori trio in scallop shells is unreal. Chef came out to introduce every course during the tasting menu. This is what fine dining should feel like.
