New Delhi, 19th August 2026: Marking its entry into the capital, Selva has opened at World St. at Worldmark, Aerocity, further cementing World St.‘s position as a curated culinary and social destination. A design-led dining destination, Selva moves beyond familiar stereotypes to present a globally relevant expression of contemporary Mexican cuisine. It is the third and most ambitious venture from first-generation restaurateur Sarthak Sidana, founder of Underdoggs and Sere, with concepts built across ten cities over the past decade. The brand’s arrival further enhances the district’s growing appeal as a vibrant social and culinary hub. Positioned as “The Social Spine of Worldmark,” World St. is designed as a walkable, high-energy F&B and lifestyle destination within one of the country’s leading global business districts.
Selva offers a contemporary take on Mexican cuisine, drawing from regional Mexican traditions and Japanese-Peruvian Nikkei influences shaped by over a year of culinary research across Mexico and Asia. The menu features Tlayuda, Nori Tacos, ceviches, tiraditos, house-made tortillas, and robata-fired seafood and meats, combining authentic techniques with bold, balanced flavours. Complementing the dining experience is Selva Maya, an intimate after-dark cocktail den inspired by Mesoamerican mythology, with an innovative beverage programme by the team behind Goa’s Hideaway Cocktail Bar.
“Selva’s arrival is a strong reflection of World St.‘s growing stature as India’s most sought-after culinary destination. We have always envisioned World St. as a space that brings the world’s most distinctive dining experiences to Delhi. As World St. continues to welcome celebrated brands, we remain committed to making this promenade a true benchmark for experiential dining in the country,” said S. K. Sayal, MD & CEO, Bharti Real Estate.
“Selva is a culmination of our deep rooted love & years spent travelling, researching and understanding cuisines & cultures across Mexico, Peru, Japan and beyond. We wanted to challenge the way Mexican & Nikkei cuisine is understood in India. This wasn’t about recreating what we had experienced elsewhere, but about understanding the cuisine at its roots and finding our own expression of it, one where the food, cocktails, design and hospitality come together to create an experience that feels both rooted and unexpected.” said Sarthak Sidana, Founder, Selva
World St. continues to strengthen its position as India’s premier destination for global culinary experiences by bringing internationally celebrated brands to the country. Alongside Selva’s debut, the destination is also home to the first Olive Garden in India, while Time Out Market, the globally renowned food and cultural marketplace, is set to make its India debut here. The destination also features acclaimed dining concepts including PF Chang’s, Magnolia Bakery, Starbucks Reserve, Paul, and several other celebrated restaurants and cafés, creating one of the country’s most diverse culinary destinations.
Spanning nearly half a kilometre across 4, 5 and 6 Worldmark, World St. is a vibrant pedestrian-friendly promenade lined with global cuisine, alfresco dining, green courtyards, art installations and thoughtfully designed public spaces. It seamlessly connects the three developments, offering a cosmopolitan blend of work, leisure and culture in one integrated destination. From cafés and patisseries to fine dining restaurants and experiential bars, World St. is designed to become India’s most Instagrammed dining mile.
