Rajasthani Restaurants to Taste Authentic Cuisine
Rajasthan is a state that represents Indian royal pride around the world. It shows India’s heritage at its finest, with magnificent palaces, massive fortresses, and incredibly royal recipes. Rajasthan is known for its festivals, but it also, offers wildlife encounters, desert exploration, Bandhej fabric, and Lal Maas, a local delicacy. Rajasthan has evolved into a gateway to extraordinary gastronomic experiences, evoking an era of glorious heritage once ruled by Mughals and Rajputs.
Rajasthani restaurants can be found all over Rajasthan, the land of the royals, serving traditional Rajasthani meals and Thalis. Talk about Dal Bati Churma, Lal Maas, and Paneer Ghevar, the state’s signature dishes. Finger-licking, without a doubt! To learn more about authentic Rajasthani cuisine, I began my journey in Jaipur, the pink city. The pink city of Jaipur, also the capital of Rajasthan, is known for its one-of-a-kind spices.

Natraj Restaurant
Even though I have dined at many restaurants in Jaipur, Natraj stands out for its grand Thalis. Natraj is a polished Rajasthani restaurant that has been serving excellent food for over 50 years and is only a 3-minute drive from Sawai Jai Singh Statue Circle. One of the best places to try kosher Rajasthani cuisine in the heart of the city.
Thali House
Thali House is another great place in Jaipur to try Rajasthani Thalis. Thali House is a traditionally decorated restaurant serving great Indian food close to Sindhi Camp Bus-stand. I’d recommend Virasat Restaurant, which is close to Godam Circle, for an extravagant treat.
In this opulent restaurant, you will be seated on the floor to enjoy a grand multi-course Thali in the traditional Rajasthani style. We’ll be adding more diners to this list shortly. Until then, please feel free to offer suggestions and the names of your favourite Rajasthani restaurants in the comments.
