Jatin and Carolina Grewal expand their Bay Area hospitality presence with a new dining destination, introducing vibrant Indian specialties in an atmosphere shaped by design and attentive pacing, while inviting local feedback and guest experiences to influence future enhancements across their restaurant group.
(Dublin, California / Date) – Jatin Grewal, known for his career in Indian film and modeling, steps forward in hospitality with the recent opening of Pippal Dublin, his second restaurant in Northern California after Emeryville’s Pippal. This marks a milestone for Grewal and his wife, Carolina, both leading a portfolio that includes acclaimed addresses like Rooh, Fitoor, and Alora.
Pippal Dublin, located in Waterford Plaza, welcomed its first guests in fall 2025. Guests step into interiors that reflect both Mumbai design and Grewal’s cinematic background, with Chef Munish Rana in the kitchen presenting Bihari lamb chops, Alleppey fish curry, and market-driven appetizers. Pippal’s menu leans on regional Indian recipes blended with seasonal ingredients from California. The beverage menu is built around each dish’s spice and fragrance, a hallmark developed in tandem with the kitchen.
The Pippal group, across both Dublin and Emeryville, maintains a direction rooted in attentive service, elegant detail, and regional authenticity. Each location offers private dining and seasonal tasting menus, welcoming both large celebrations and everyday occasions. Special events at Pippal feature new menu items, collaborations, and chef tastings designed to connect with local guests.
Carolina and Jatin Grewal continually tune every element at Pippal, keeping the guest at the center of each decision. Regular feedback has prompted menu rotations and new service features, reinforcing Pippal as a restaurant group with energy and intention. With the Dublin opening, Grewal reasserts Pippal’s role as a leader in Northern California dining and invites fresh audiences to enjoy Indian cuisine rooted in tradition, updated with every visit.
