==Plot==<br />
The film is the story of Janhvi (played by [[Sonali Kulkarni]]) and Padmakka (played by [[Uttara Baokar]]), descendants of a [[Marathi people|Maharashtrian]] royal family who run a restaurant. Janhvi is a trained cook who has given up cooking as a reaction to the death of her companion Paul. Sameer (played by [[Sameer Dharmadhikari]]), Janhvi's friend who is a cook joins the restaurant in order to assist in modernising the restaurant. However destiny has other things in store. A property dispute complicates the situation.<ref name="NavhindTimes">{{cite news|url=http://www.navhindtimes.in/ilive/return-marathi-film-festival|title=The Return of the Marathi Film Festival|date=2011-06-02|work=Navhind Times|accessdate=4 May 2013}}</ref><br />

==Critical review==<br />
[[Amrit Gangar]] in the Routledge Handbook of Indian Cinema considers ''Restaurant'' as an example of novelty introduced into Marathi cinema by Marathi film makers since [[Shwaas]]. Vidyarthi Chatterjee compliments the film for its pace and for its seasoned handling of the conflict between tradition and modernity, and the motivation created by self-esteem felt by an artist in seeking to be perfect in the practice of his art and the attempt by a person to drown sorrow and the sense of being alone in work.<ref name="GokulsingDissanayake2013" /><br />
