ALFRESCO
Read moreA romantic restaurant, this restaurant is one of the hotel's pride. Of course you will have to put the price here, because more than food is the framework, the inaccessibility and the tranquillity you pay. Many noble products imported for their specificities. The lamb comes from New Zealand, the cheeses from France, the wines of California. T Bone rises in cognac is one of the specialties very popular with the clientele. And the desserts? Undoubtedly the brownie and its chocolate sauce come in mind. Besides the atmosphere, an orchestra plays for privileged assistance, and there are only 10 tables.

RANG DE BASANTI DHABA
Read moreThis restaurant is absolutely great. If you're in the area of the Convention Center or the airport, come here for a break. The room is large and inspired by the industrial style. An old tractor painted in yellow sits in the middle and is a delight for the kids. Because we come here with our families to enjoy the chicken tikka. It is spicy, but juicy and cleverly spiced. Just look at the number of people who come here to dine in or take away. A very good discovery. Kolkata has five such establishments.
45 THE CENTRAL
Read moreOn the second floor of a building on Mall Road, this small restaurant with midnight blue velvet benches offers a long room. On the menu, a mix of international and Indian cuisine. Sandwiches, pizzas or burgers served with crispy fries are served alongside vegetarian kebabs and chicken tikka. However, we recommend the Indian specialties, which are much more successful. On the other hand, the portions are a bit small. The result is quite appreciable and the atmosphere is nice. Just like the service.
HOTEL SHIROSE
Read moreIf you are not yet familiar with deep India, this restaurant will seem very gloomy. The atmosphere is dark, in the two separate rooms: one dedicated to vegetarian specialties and the other not. Don't be put off by this detail, because you will find a very complete menu where the specialties of Odisha are honored, like the delicious fish curry with mustard. Prices are tight and the room is air-conditioned. Many tour operators bring their clients here to experience an authentic meal.

In addition to these very popular pancakes, which are especially popular at breakfast, the menu offers other local specialties such as idli, vada and uttapam.
CHACHA CAFE
Read moreA small institution in the city, this restaurant has a full house at every service.

In the entrance, a pastry shop offers a limited, but appetizing, choice of cakes. Upstairs, a large terrace overlooks the street and thanks to the braziers that warm it up a bit, you can sit there in winter for a drink or dinner under the stars.
CAFE ROYALE RISHIKESH
Read moreLocated on the left bank of the Ganges, at the top of a (very steep) iron staircase, this restaurant attracts a rather young clientele, fond of sweet delicacies. Café Royale has built its reputation on its delicious desserts, but it also serves very good savory food. We tried the best pizza ever tried in India! The long room opens on a terrace overlooking the Ganges. Another nice asset is the very welcoming owner. As everywhere else in Rishikesh, you have to take off your shoes before sitting down.
THE 60'S CAFE (THE BEATLES)
Read moreOf the three cafés lined up in the passage that leads to Laxman Jhula, this one is the nicest. Just look at the crowd that crowds in, the seats are expensive.

The unpretentious vegetarian cuisine is served here, and the menu is located exactly at the crossroads of India. It specifies: North India, South India and Punjab.
EBONYS CAFE

Possibility to drink a cold beer. One drawback however: the service is rather slow, but you feel good...

Ideal for a romantic dinner.
ROYAL COURT BY JOYS PALACE
Read moreThe Joys Palace restaurant is an excellent option for both lunch and dinner. The reasonably priced buffet offers a variety of dishes: salads, soups, main courses, breads, desserts... The emphasis is on Indian cuisine, but international specialties are also available. You can also order à la carte. It is simple, well cooked, the choice is vast and the service is friendly. Excellent value for money.
LITTLE TIBET
Read moreOnce a popular address for travelers for its cuisine, its low prices, and its friendly atmosphere, today Little Tibet is not as successful. The quality of the dishes has strongly declined and inevitably, the tourists go to see elsewhere... The momos are bland and their stuffing is... precisely, a stuffing! The Tibetan soups(thentuk, thukpa) are also tasteless. It's a pity, because the establishment still offers excellent fresh fruit juices and has a nice terrace with a view on the cliff and the ocean!

ROOF GARDEN
Read moreLocated on the rooftop of the Sasthapuri Hotel, this restaurant, renovated in 2018, allows you to dine in an open-air room. Plants, bamboo decor, dimmed lights, checkered tablecloths... But don't expect a romantic atmosphere: the restaurant serves as a bar to an almost exclusively male population. Indian and Chinese cuisine, as well as specialties from the Malabar coast are offered. Beer, wine and other spirits are also served. One of the most pleasant places in town for dinner.
ALL SPICE
Read moreLocated on thefirst floor above a supermarket of fine products, this restaurant does not shine for its atmosphere, rather cold and devoid of charm. However, the menu is interesting and offers a variety of cuisines: traditional Kerala dishes, Thai recipes, soups, tandoori brochettes, Chinese noodles, burgers... Beef, lamb, chicken, fish and seafood, the choice is vast. We particularly recommend the Kerala specialties, like beef kizhi (cooked in a banana leaf). A good option!

MOTI MAHAL

CRYSTAL
Read moreYou're not dreaming, two adjacent restaurants have the same name; at the entrance, it's up to the employee who will shout the loudest to attract the customer. Originally there was only one Crystal, but it was divided in two due to a family feud. Even if they are equal, the more luxurious one caught our attention. Chic bistro atmosphere with staff in black and white uniform. The specialty is the murg tawa frontier (grilled chicken), but our favorite dish is the rexmi kebab, a delicious chicken skewer marinated in yogurt.
