The 1580 Story:In the year 1580, a sailor Sir Francis Drake circumnavigated the earth in search of something precious. His expectations paid him handsomely, for not only did he return with sterling silver and sparkling gems, but sacks full of exotic spices. A ‘treasure’ so valuable that it helped pay the entire national debt, and in return Queen Elizabeth knighted him.

1580 is an authentic Indian restaurant, devoted to celebrate the treasure found by Sir Drake back in the 16th century. Exquisite period dishes are crafted and recreated using the finest hand-picked ingredients by skillful chefs, and served with a connoiseurs sensibility.

A Taste of History1580 is an experience from which people will take back natural flavours dating back centuries from India and taste the glorious food of the vastly diverse richly blessed Indian Subcontinent. At 1580, a ‘dinner out’ is transformed into an exclusive ‘dining experience’ inspired by our passion and cooking with only the best of the authentic Indian spices.

The cuisine is a contemporary interpretation of classic Indian cooking. Utterly authentic and yet also of the times we live in. Each one of the dishes embeds its own character and a unique aromatic flavour. Everywhere, there are aspects of the creative genius.
