LOYA, the dining destination at Taj West End, Bengaluru, has been awarded the prestigious “Leading Fine Dining Outlet in Hotel/Resort” title at the 9th South Asian Travel Awards (SATA) 2025, hosted in Colombo, Sri Lanka.
This recognition places LOYA among the region’s most exceptional dining destinations, celebrating its ability to connect Northern-inspired culinary traditions with contemporary dining expectations. The award was received by Chef Sonal Chandra, Sous Chef at LOYA, on behalf of the team.
A dining experience beyond the plate
LOYA is more than a restaurant, it’s a journey through stories, ingredients, and craftsmanship from across the Northern belt of the subcontinent. Guests experience dishes made with indigenous produce, served in handcrafted metal and ceramicware, and set against an ambiance designed to evoke warmth, nostalgia, and understated luxury. This holistic approach makes LOYA stand out as a dining experience rather than just a meal.
A celebration of craftsmanship and heritage
“This recognition is a testament to the passion, creativity, and meticulous work of our team at LOYA and Taj West End,” said Taljinder Singh, Senior Vice President and Brand Custodian, IHCL. “At LOYA, our endeavour is to create evocative dining experiences that honour our rich culinary heritage while staying relevant to today’s discerning guests.”
