Uttar Pradesh

Indian restaurants in Uttar Pradesh

  1. A

    Dolphin Restaurant

    Perched high above Man Mandir Ghat, this rooftop restaurant at Rashmi Guest House is a fine place for breakfast or an evening meal. Watch food being prepared through the glass-walled kitchen or sit out on the breezy balcony.

  2. B

    Ganga Fuji Restaurant

    Free live Indian classical music is played every evening at 7.30pm, which makes this otherwise ordinary multicuisine restaurant worth considering for dinner. Not to be confused with the nearby hotel, Ganga Fuji Home, which also has a restaurant.

    Muman’s Royal Cafe

    Even if you don’t step inside this popular family restaurant, don’t miss its excellent chaat (spicy snack) stand at the front where mixed chaat s are served in an aloo (potato) basket. Inside you can dine on chicken Mughlai, tandoor kebabs and pizza.

    Falaknuma

    Lucknow’s best hotel also lays claim to having its best restaurant. The stylish rooftop dining room has bird’s-eye views and serves up sumptuous nawab cuisine, such as kakori (minced mutton) and galawat (minced goat) kebabs.

    Moti Mahal Restaurant

    Downstairs is a sweet and snack shop, upstairs is a low-lit AC restaurant serving up tasty, well-presented food. Try the Lucknow dum aloo (potatoes stuffed with nuts and paneer in a tomato-based sauce) followed by kulfi faluda.

    Varuna Restaurant

    As you’d expect from Varanasi’s best hotel, this is one of the city’s top restaurants. Elegant without being stuffy, Varuna’s specialities include classic North Indian and Afghan dishes, the sumptuous maharaja thali and tandoor kebabs. There’s live sitar and tabla music every evening.

    El Parador

    Fancy a buffalo steak, followed by waffles for dessert? Not far from the station this established restaurant, run by a Nepali family, offers something different. It's pricey but with homemade pasta, chicken souvlaki, crepes and Tibetan momos, it's worthwhile. Dine on the rooftop terrace amid the herbs or in the quaint first-floor restaurant.

    Tunday Kabab

    Tucked away down a small street in the bustling Aminabad district, this renowned local kebab shop serves up delicious plates of mutton biryani, kebabs and tandoori chicken. The mutton kebab here is fantastic. Consider coming along early to give yourself time for a wander around the bazaar here, a prime location for picking up chikan (delicately embroidered muslin cloth). Rickshaw drivers know how to find this place. There’s a more centrally located branch in Sapru Marg with the same menu at slightly higher prices, but it’s nowhere near as popular.
