Arthur’s Theme is one of the oldest European restaurants in Pune, tucked into a lane in Koregaon Park. Family run, cosy rather than flashy, and known as much for its steaks as its Italian food. One outlet only.

The steaks get the strongest praise of anything on the menu, with several reviewers calling them the best in the city. The owner and his son running the floor personally comes up repeatedly, and people rate the hospitality as highly as the food. Vegetarian options are described as genuinely good. The cosy size is a plus for couples and a limit for large groups.
Koregaon Park has plenty around it. For pizza, PizzaExpress at Kopa Mall is 5 minutes and Si Nonna’s Kalyani Nagar is about 10. If you want misal instead, Aaba Misalwale in Rasta Peth is about 15 minutes but only open in the morning.
What the menu names mean
This is the thing that makes Arthur’s Theme different from every other restaurant on this list. Dishes carry names, not descriptions. Here are the ones regulars order most.
| Name | What it is |
|---|---|
| Hector | Prawns starter. The most recommended starter on the menu |
| Ronald | Chicken wings |
| Wettin | A main course regulars name as a favourite |
| Lady Jennifer | Another regular main course pick |
| Amanda | Main course, named often alongside the other two |
Ask before ordering. The staff explain them without any fuss, and the recommendations tend to land well.

Should you go
Go for a proper sit down dinner, a date, or if you want the best steak in Pune. The pizza and Italian food are good, but the steaks are why people keep coming back for years.
Skip it if you specifically came for pizza. For that, Si Nonna’s or Da Nonna’s are the better calls.
