~Bellona Hospitality of Phoenix Mills Ltd Expands Its Footprint with Ishaara, Ushering in a New Era of Purpose-Led Dining~
Ishaara by Bellona Hospitality makes its standalone debut on Church Street, Bengaluru, guided by a clear purpose-led vision. The brand continues to shape meaningful hospitality experiences, championing inclusion, celebrating ingredient-forward cuisine, and creating spaces that resonate beyond the plate. Rooted in people and the philosophy of giving back, Ishaara empowers communities through opportunity and representation. True to its name, meaning “gesture,” the space is designed around connection, where communication unfolds through expression, presence and intent rather than words.
Ishaara is helmed by a dedicated team of hearing and speech-impaired service professionals for whom gestures are not only a concept, but a language. Every interaction is guided by clarity and warmth, shaping every dining experience that feels truly welcoming. Grounded in purpose and giving back, Ishaara continues to champion excellence through empathy, making Bengaluru, with its openness and curiosity, a natural next chapter for the brand.
Speaking on this expansion, Mr. Prashant Issar, Managing Director, Bellona Hospitality, says, “This marks not just growth, but the beginning of a powerful new era for the brand. Our aim is to create moments of connection through food, emotion and human kindness. His words echo Ishaara’s core belief: that hospitality is, above all, deeply personal.”
A Space Designed to Feel Honest
At Ishaara, nature-led design sets the tone for a space that feels both raw and refined, envisioned by Mumbai-based studio Minnie Bhatt Design, known for its refined, experience-driven interiors. The 3,000 sq. ft. indoor–outdoor restaurant blends concrete, warm wood, brass and faux leather into a tactile, inviting environment softened by flowing greens. Its 700 sq. ft. verandah, with its striking ceiling height, transforms from a sunlit daytime corner to a relaxed evening bar. The design philosophy is rooted in simplicity, tactile, grounded and deeply human.
