The best Indian restaurants Varanasi

Up a flight of stairs overlooking Ganga Mahal Ghat, this small restaurant attracts many travelers who settle in Varanasi for a while. Ashish's family lives here and has set up a room and a veranda on the first floor. The food is simple, delicious and prepared with fresh ingredients. It is one of the best places in the city for excellent thalis. The address is signposted from the ghat, and you'll have no trouble spotting the bright blue house with flower pots in front.

Here is a new establishment opened by a French woman, which is located very close to the central ghat, on the rooftop of Baba Guesthouse. The room is spacious and impeccable, with a superb view on the Ganges. Here the Indian specialties are particularly successful (delicious thali) and adapted to European palates. And for those who are homesick, we also offer pancakes, quiches lorraine, pasta, salads, and desserts to die for. Friendly atmosphere, discreet and pleasant music, games at disposal.

This vegetarian restaurant is an institution in Varanasi! A restaurant that is very popular with the locals because of the good quality of its cuisine. It serves North Indian food (paneer, tandoori) as well as South Indian food (dosa, uttapam) and some Chinese (noodles) and continental dishes. Keshari also serves very good thalis. You can enjoy the snacks on a bench installed for this purpose in the street. However, you will have to be patient to get a place, the place is literally taken by storm at lunch time.
