Best Restaurants in Udaipur with amazing Views:

Udaipur has many rooftop restaurants around Lake Pichola offering splendid views of the lake. Here are some of the best places to dine at, serving good food and even better panoramic views.

Rainbow Restaurant:

Rainbow Restaurant is a great place for a sundowner. Grab a Pizza and a brew while enjoying the beautiful sunset over the banks of Lake Pichola overlooking the Aravalli mountains. The restaurant’s quirky decor, cute cushion mattress tables, candlelight set up and amazing playlist liven up the place. We loved the Margherita Pizza, Chicken Lasagne and Café Mocha here.  

#LipSmackingMeter: 5/5

Address: by the banks of Lal Ghat, next to Jaiwana Haveli

Jagat Niwas Rooftop Restaurant:  

Housed in Jagat Niwas Haveli, the plush whitewashed restaurant feels no less than a palace. The picturesque view from the beautiful arched windows is like no other.

Pick a window table in this nautical black-and-white dining area and you can enjoy a sweeping view of Lake Pichola. The menu ranges from traditional Indian to modern cuisine. Bharwa Aaloo kebabs and Yakhni Pulao is a must try. The pricing may feel a bit steep, but the good food, attentive service and breath-taking view warrants an amazing experience here.

#LipSmacking Meter: 4.5/5

Address: Jagat Niwas Haveli, Lal Ghat

Café Ambrai:

It’s hard to beat the lake view from this Eurpoean-esque cafe. The in-house café of Amet Haveli, Café Ambrai offers an envious view of the magnificent Taj Lake Palace, Gangaur Ghat and City Palace over the lake. The cafe features an array of Indian, Chinese and Continental cuisines. The views early in the morning are just as beautiful at sunset. The service is a tad slow but the view makes up for it and while you wait for the food, strike a pose or two 😊We visited for breakfast on 2 separate occasions and preferred the English Breakfast Platter & Aaloo Paratha.

#LipSmackingMeter: 4/5

Address: Amet Haveli, Outside Chandpole

Jheel Café:

Divided into two sections, ground and top floor, Jheel Café is popular among tourists and locals.  Situated right next to the lake, grab an outdoor table on a clear day. The rooftop section is quite pretty too. Weekends may have waiting, so a reservation is recommended. We visited early in the morning and had the entire outdoor section to ourselves. The café ticks all the right boxes with regards to the lake view, the coffee and the desserts but came up short on the food/ snacks which can afford a skip. The Nutella Hot Chocolate & walnut brownie here is heaven😊

#LipSmackingMeter: 3.5/5

Address: 52, 56, Top Floor, Gangaur Ghat, Near Bagore Ki Haveli, Udaipur , Chandpole

Upre Restaurant:

Upre meaning “upstairs” in Mewari is one of the most popular rooftop restaurants in Udaipur offering expansive views of Gangaur Ghat and Bagore ki Haveli.  When the sun goes down, the city lights glowing from afar make Upre the perfect place to cozy up for a date night.  Among Indian, Continental and Chinese cuisines, the menu also includes a variety of authentic Rajasthani dishes. A visit here can be a worthy splurge. Do try Laal Maas and Chicken Malai Kebab. Fish and chips were plain ordinary. If you are planning for a candlelight dinner with your loved one, I’d recommend to book a table well in advance. Reservations strongly recommended.

Address: Hotel Lake Pichola, Outside ChandPole.

Sun & Moon Café:  

Sun & Moon Café claims to be the highest rooftop restaurant in Udaipur. During the day, this restaurant transforms itself into a pinterest-y café of Greece with walls splashed in white with a pop of orange and turquoise. The bright and colourful lights from the lakeside hotels gleaming over the waters of the lake at night offer a serene view especially if you are enjoying a glass of wine over at the terrace. The Food is nothing to write home about. Visit this place for a drink or two while you witness the city lights go on when the sun goes down.

Address: Rooftop of Banjara Hostel / Treebo Udai Niwas, near Jagdish Temple Road.

Shamiana at Hotel Sarovar:  

The view is as good as Upre with a little less fancy ambience. The food is worth the praises; Laal Maas, Butter Naan, Mutton Pulao are some of the dishes we loved. Shamiana is housed on the roof of Hotel Sarovar which offers some of the best lake facing rooms at a bargain.

#LipSmackingMeter: 4.5/5

Address: Rooftop of Hotel Sarovar, Next to GoStops Hostel,

Jaiwana Haveli:

Many hotels claim to offer the best lake view rooftop restaurants but one that fits the bill is Jaiwana Haveli. Breathtaking views can be enjoyed from the interiors of this hotel through its floor-to-ceiling windows, or from the outdoor patio. The checked flooring, the metal chairs and the unobstructed views of the Lake Palace sets up a perfect dine with a view vibe. Try Indian Thali that is generously filled with veg curries, dal, rice, chapati, salad and a sweet dish.

Address: 5th Floor, Jaiwana Haveli, near Lal Ghat

Tribute Restaurant:

Want a place with a view but away from the bustling area of Lake Pichola? Head to Tribute, a restaurant facing Swaroop Lake. The restaurant is a tribute to Chetak, the legendary horse of Maharana Pratap. Visit this pretty restaurant in the evening and grab a table at their huge outdoor patio. The menu consists of North Indian, Continental, and the ethnic curries of Rajasthan. Must Try: Laal Maas and Mutton Pulao.

Address: Ambamata Temple Rd, Behind Monika Complex

Restaurants with Great Food but NO View:

If good food is what matters then these restaurants should be on your must-visit list:

Natraj Dining & Hall Restaurant:

Any Trip to Udaipur is incomplete without a visit to this iconic Thali restaurant. Natraj Dining has been serving Indian thali for years without compromising on taste & quality. The Unlimited Thali is worth the calories that it comes with. The rotational basis menu ensures that each time you visit, you are treated to a different variety of mouth-watering dishes. If you happen to visit during the summers, you’ll love the Aam Ras they serve.  Priced at Rs 350++ this is definitely our favorite Thali Restaurant in Udaipur. Due to its over popularity, the place is always crowded, expect a delay in services.

Address: Near Udaipur Railway station, Jawahar Nagar

Neelam Restaurant:

Dining at restaurants is not unusual while travelling, but finding homemade food is a challenge. Neelam Restaurant is an humble abode run by a couple, where the wife prepares delicious food and the husband serves it with a warm smile. On our visit, we dined here twice, its that good. Must-Try: Masala Kadhi Chawal and Bhendi Masala.

Address: Jagdish Temple Road, Opp Treebo Udai Niwas

Chappan Bhog :

Another restaurant that we would like to highlight is Chappan Bhog. Recommended by our auto driver, this restaurant serves Dal Batti Thali and Rajasthani Thali, consisting of Dal Batti Churma, Ker Sangri, Gatte ki Sabki, Pulao and more Mewari goodness. They also serve Gujrati and Punjabi thali.

LipsmackingMeter 4/5

Address: Near Saheliyon ki Bari, Big Bazaar Road, Fatehpura

Royal Repast:

Royal Repast is an 85 year old ancestral home turned restaurant run by the Bedla Family. Known for serving cuisines only by appointment to famed personalities such as Queen Elizabeth & Prime Minister Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru among others, it has now opened its doors to all food lovers recently. 

Serving traditional Mewar Styled food comprising of inhouse authentic recipes, the delicacies served here simply astonishing. From mouth-watering Kebabs, sumptuous Mains to comforting desserts, everything here is served with so much love. Gajar ka Halwa on a sultry winter evening was the perfect final touch to our royal meal. They also offer private dining, candlelight dinner and hosts corporate parties too.

Address: Police Station, Chota Chetak Road OPP SBI Bank near Hathipole, Udaipur,

Cafés to visit in Udaipur:

Udai Art Café:

This hip café, initially run by a Greek Women Meropi Mitrou, serves some excellent Greek and Vegan dishes. Located at the corner of Jagdish Temple Chowk, Udai Art Café has those perfect hippie vibes with colorful art splashed walls. They serve some amazing Coffee, Chocolate Crepe and hummus.

LipSmackingMeter: 4.5/5

Address: Near Jagdish Temple, Chandpole

Café Grasswood:

Watch the commotion of the old city pass by from their outdoor section or simply sit indoors, grab a book and relax.

From freshly squeezed juices to coffee & sandwiches, quick vegan and healthy options are scribbled on their chalked menu across the wall. Olive & Cheese Sandwich and Iced Coffee made for good munchies while we lost ourselves in the good conversation here. They also have wifi available making it easier for travellers to perch for hours, working from this colourful café.

Address: near Foot Over Bridge, Chand Pole,

Café Satori:

The “No strings attached” blackboard on a broken guitar in the street caught my attention. This street side café is always buzzing with tourists and coffee lovers. The outdoor seating is usually packed but regularly interrupted by the loud honkin from the street. The indoor section on the other hand is more peaceful & rather beautiful. The low sofa seating, walls adorned with portraits and quirky quotes and interesting books can keep anyone indoors for hours. The coffee is good and the food is average at best. But, I think the most fascinating concept of this café is “Suspended Coffee”, a tradition borrowed from Naples, Italy.

Suspended Coffee involves a customer buying a cup of coffee for the needy who can’t afford one themselves.

At Satori, For any suspended order, the customer only has to pay 70% of the offered price, the remaining 30% is offered by the cafe.

Street Food places in Udaipur:

Paliwal Restaurant:

How can the Udaipur food guide be complete without mentioning Kachori? Pyaaz, Moong Dal or simple Masala Kachori, pick any and you’ll end up raving about Kachoris at Paliwal Restaurant. Opens as early as 7 in the morning, the bylanes of Jagdish Temple Road are filled with the waft of piping hot kachoris made here. Priced at Rs 10, Kachoris here are a must try. Also try Mirchi ke Pakode and Samosa.

LipSmackingMeter: 5/5

Address: Jagdish Temple Rd, Old City

JMB Jagdish Mishtan Bhandar:

This is one of the oldest places serving Kachori in Udaipur. Kachoris here are served hot with a side of self-serving options of Kadhi and Sweet and Spicy chutneys. Priced at Rs 15 for a Kachori, its mouthful and bursting with flavors.

Address: Bapu Bazar Road, Jawahar Nagar,

Khaugalli at Gulab Baugh:

Just like any other city, Udaipur has its very own Khaughalli popular for all the quick grub offerings. Try the generously filled Aaloo Paratha at SaiBaba Nashta Centre or the lip-smacking Boiled egg Bhurji at an unnamed stall near Chetak Circle. During evenings this place is buzzing with food lovers; a must-visit if you love street food.

Address: Behind Museum Road, Gulab Baugh

Foodstalls at Fateh Sagar Lake:

Fateh Sagar is a beautiful lake in Udaipur and draws in many tourists throughout the day. The lake is dotted with numerous food stalls serving quick bites, refreshments and beverages. Kulhad Chai and Coffee at Vinod Fast Food are popular here and these warm beverages are great especially when there is a nip in the air.

Address: Opp Fateh Sagar Lake

Important Tips for places to eat in Udaipur:

Most of the restaurants are on rooftops of 3-5 floors Hotels with no lifts, so be prepared to climb a few flights of stairs.

Not all seats in the restaurants with views are near windows. If you’re going for the view, ask for a reservation near a window or walk-in before the sunset to get yourself a nice table. There might be waiting during the weekends, please secure a table with reservations.

All the restaurants were visited on my own during my last two trips to Udaipur and as such all the above opinions are based on my own experiences.

Until then,

14 Foods to Try in Udaipur

Manu Bahuguna / Getty Images

Rajasthani cuisine is predominantly vegetarian and heavy on the use of pulses and hardy grains, such as millet, due to the state's arid desert climate. However, in Udaipur, the cuisine has been influenced by the Rajput rulers of the Mewar region, who founded the city. They were keen hunters, so game meat predominated in their diet. The royal cooks used plenty of ghee (clarified butter), yogurt, chilies, and garlic to flavor the meat and match it to the tastes of the powerful warrior kings. In addition, the climate of the Mewar region is less-parched than other parts of Rajasthan . Thus, the cuisine also includes freshwater fish from the region's lakes and corn that flourishes in the region's richer soil. Here are the top foods you should try while in Udaipur.

Dal Bati Churma

Rajasthan's most iconic dish consists of three items: daal, a soup-like mixed lentil dish; baati, balls of bread made out of wholemeal wheat or jowar flour; and churma, baati crushed into a coarse powder, and fried in ghee and jaggery (a type of cane sugar). Dal Bati Churma is a fixture at festivals and other celebrations including weddings.

The vegetarian thali (platter) at Krishna Dal Baati Restro is centered around this dish and Santosh Dal Bati restaurant is another famous place to try it.

Gatte ki Sabji (Gatta Curry)

Steamed chickpea flour dumplings are cooked in a tangy, spicy yogurt-based curry to make this ubiquitous Rajasthani dish. "Gatta" refers to the solid dumpling pieces in the curry. The Mewari style, prevalent in Udaipur, has tomato and onion added to the gravy. Pair it with Makki ki Roti (corn flour flatbread).

Hari Ghar and Khamma Ghani restaurants both do excellent versions of the dish.

Kadhi Pakora

You might be familiar with pakoras as a popular street food in India. They're also added to curry in Rajasthan, albeit without the fillings such as potato and onion. Small portions of chickpea flour batter are deep-fried until golden br, and then placed in a thick gravy of yogurt, chickpea flour, and spices.

Kadhi Pakora appears on menus all over Udaipur though diners praise the dish at Tribute restaurant, overlooking Fateh Sagar Lake. Or, if you'd prefer a rooftop view of Lake Pichola, head to the restaurant at Jaiwana Haveli .

Banjara Murgh (Nomadic Chicken Curry)

Banjara Murgh is a chicken curry prepared with coarsely pounded spices and slow-cooked over a fire, as was done by the region's nomadic people. The Banjara Murgh at Royal Repast is recommended by the chef. This restaurant specializes in the traditional Mewari style of cooking and is located in the owner's ancestral home. The owner's grandfather was Prime Minister of Mewar state, and his mother learned many recipes from the expert royal cooks.

Ker Sangri is a rather unusual dish comprised of pickled wild indigenous berries and beans. The ker berries come from a thorny leafless shrub and resemble capers, while the long stringy sangri beans are pods from Rajasthan's state tree, the khejri tree. Both grow in the Thar desert. The berries and beans are picked and dried, to be used when seasonal vegetables are scarce.

The dish is a specialty at Hari Garh restaurant , alongside Lake Pichola.

Laal Maas (Red Mutton Curry)

Sergio Amiti / Getty Images

Carnivores who love their food hot and spicy will definitely want to sample the formidable signature dish of Mewari rulers: Laal Maas. It is a fiery crimson mutton (usually goat not lamb) curry loaded with pungent red Mathania chillies and ghee.

Enjoy it in style with a signature Udaipur view across Lake Pichola to the City Palace at Upre or Ambrai restaurants. Or, if you'd rather somewhere less fancy head to Rajwada Bites . But be warned: this dish burns!

Machli Jaisamandi (Fish Curry)

Unique to Udaipur, Machli Jaisamandi gets its name from nearby Lake Jaisamand. Mewar ruler Jai Singh created the lake in the 17th century and it's among the largest artificial lakes in the world. The dish is a light, tomato-based freshwater fish curry, and one of the tribes in the area is thought to have served the dish to the ruler.

You'll find it on the menu at Paantya , as well as Upre and 1559 A.D.

Safed Maas (White Mutton Curry)

While the royal men feasted on Laal Mass, a much more mellow Safed Maas was served to the ladies. The mutton in this dish is cooked in a creamy white yogurt and cashew nut gravy, lightly spiced with cardamom.

Dine on it in a regal setting at Paantya , the restaurant at Shiv Niwas Palace hotel inside the Udaipur City Palace Complex . Many authentic Mewari dishes are available there. Safed Maas is a chef's special at Tribute restaurant as well.

Boiled Egg Bhurji

For a fuss-free snack, grab yourself some piping hot boiled egg bhurji from The Egg World at Chetak Circle in Udaipur. Owner Jai Kumar gives a twist to the popular Indian take on scrambled eggs, flavoring it up with his special blend of sugarless ketchup, spices, onion, and tomato. Jai's inventive egg recipes have taken him all the way to be a contestant on "MasterChef India."

Mirchi Bada

Biting into a crispy mirchi bada will definitely wake your taste buds up! This famed Rajasthani street food features large green chillies stuffed with spices and potato, and deep fried in chickpea flour batter.

Manak Balaji's Mirchi Bada Center, opposite Jyoti Secondary School, has been in business since 1967. It's open from 6:30 p.m. to 10 p.m, and the lines can get long. Jagdish Misthan Bhandar (JMB) in Surajpole is a more central and convenient option.

Khargosh ke Kebab (Rabbit Kebab)

Mewar rulers considered wild rabbit to be a delicacy and these days, it's only offered at a few restaurants in Udaipur. The minced rabbit kebabs at Royal Repast are prepared according to an old family recipe, with freshly ground whole spices, and shaped like a shami kebab (resembling a flattened meatball). Upre also serves minced rabbit cooked in spices (Khargosh ka Keema).

Come 7 a.m. and a crowd is already eagerly awaiting fresh kachori (deep-fried pastry discs stuffed with fillings such as spiced lentils or onion) at Paliwal Misthaan restaurant near the Jagdish Temple in Udaipur. In case they're sold out, try Jagdish Shri Restaurant close by. Other renowned alternatives are Shri Lala Kachori near Asthal Mandir, or one of the branches of JMB (JMB Nashta Center near Chetak Circle makes many different types of kachori).

Traditional Rajasthani malpua may be the sweetest pancakes you've ever had. They're fried and then dunked in sugar syrup. The use of coarsely ground wheat flour (atta) in Udaipur gives them a crispier texture. Many local roadside sweet shops around the City Palace sell malpua. For a more hygienic environment, visit Jodhpur Misthan Bhandar sweet shop at Bapu Bazar, opposite the Town Hall.

Regarded as the king of sweets in Rajasthan, ghevar is a super-indulgent cake-like dish that will alarm your arteries. It's soaked in sugar syrup and ghee, and sometimes topped with nutty rabri (thickened sweetened milk). Ghevar is commonly made during religious festivals such as Teej and Gangaur in Udaipur, as it's offered to the deities before being distributed.

You can get ghevar throughout the year at major sweet shops such as Jodhpur Misthan Bhandar and Jagdish Misthan Bhandar.

10 spots in Udaipur to hit for the best Rajasthani food

Udaipur, the City of Lakes, is known for the many times it's showed up in Bollywood films as larger-than-life backdrops. But apart from its stunning locales, the city is host to a buzzing food scene that puts the spotlight on traditional Rajasthani cuisine. If you're looking for the right way to explore food in Udaipur, Alok Anand, executive chef at the Oberoi Udaivilas, lets us in on a tip, "To get the real taste of the region, the best spots are local ones as they always follow authentic recipes borrowed from their ancestors, and that reflects in their dishes." We got him to reveal his favourite restaurants in Udaipur, and the dishes he loves to eat there. Scroll ahead for his recommendations.

Chundawat Restaurant

For one of the best samosas in the city, the chef recommends this spot. "He starts shop at 7:30 in the morning and by 10:30-11:00, he's done. But these are the best samosas I have ever eaten in the country," he tells us. "Being part of the industry, I was curious to see how he prepares them. He grinds the spices and adds them in the end [because] the spices lose their flavour if they're overcooked. And [the result is] the most flavourful samosas."

Address: Near Ranapratap Nagar, Thokar Road, Thokar Chauraha, Udaipur

Roop Ji Nasta Centre

Looking for mouthwatering pakodas during your trip? This is the place you need to visit. "The bread pakodas are amazing at this eatery, the stuffing is very different in flavour and he serves it with Rajasthani kadhi , which is very unique," chef Anand tells us.

Address: 57, Singhat Wadiya St, Moti Chohatta, Bada Bazar, Bohrwadi, Udaipur, Rajasthan

Jagdish Shri Restaurant

Kachoris are a popular snack across the state, but if you're looking for some variety, head to this eatery. The green masala version is a popular pick, with a stuffing made from green chillies, potatoes and onions. Since it's close to City Palace and the famous Jagdish Temple, we recommend you make a pit stop here on your way to the sights.

Address: 21, Surya Marg, Jagdish Chowk, Near Jagdish Temple, Udaipur

Mamaji Ki Haveli

Mirchi vada is a common snack in Rajasthani cuisine, and this place does a good version, using "large banana chillies that stuffed with garlic-tempered potatoes and battered fried," the chef tells us, resulting in a pakora that is "not too spicy, but really flavourful." Another must-have dish here is the heeng kachori.

Address: Rao Ji Ka Hata, Udaipur

Vasudev Doodh Bhandar

If you're hankering for a dessert after all the spicy food, Vasudev Doodh Bhandar has the chef's nod of approval. He recommends the rabri. "Usually, when you eat rabri, you can feel a grainy texture. However, here the texture is so amazing, it dissolves in your mouth," says chef Anand.

Address: Bara Bazaar Rd, Old City, Jawahar Nagar, Brahmpuri, Udaipur

Jain Nashta Centre

If you’re looking for a hearty breakfast, make a beeline for Kanha Sweets. Chef Anand reveals, "I have poha for breakfast quite often and the one at Jain Nashta Centre is one of the best in the city. You'll see a pile of poha at the store and fifteen minutes later, it's going to be gone and he'll make a fresh batch."

Address: University Rd, Shakti Nagar, Udaipu r

Chandni, Oberoi Udaivilas

This content can also be viewed on the site it originates from.

The Oberoi Udaivilas is known for its scenic views and one the best spots to enjoy them during a meal is at their restaurant Chandni. The menu has everything from local dishes, iconic dishes from across the country and some international offerings, so you will be spoilt for choice. The pastas and risotto come recommended by chef Anand.

Address: The Oberoi Udaivilas, Haridas Ji Ki Magri, Mulla Talai, Udaipur

Shree Hari Seasonal Dhaba

A small dhaba in Udaipur, their recipes have been in the family for generations, and give diners an authentic taste of the region's cuisine. Head there for a steaming plate of dal baati churma and kadhi chawal. Chef tells us, "They do all the iconic Rajasthani dishes on charcoal, which gives it a very nice flavour."

Address: 100 Feet Rd, Nokha, Sector 3, Shanti Nagar, Hiran Magri, Nokha , Udaipur

Kuwar Kaleva Restaurant

"They do very nice, traditional non-vegetarian Rajasthani dishes," chef Anand says. What's unique about this spot? Unlike most places in Rajasthan , they don't serve dal with baati, instead they pair it with mutton curry. They have an assortment of breads, including tikkar roti, which is similar to missi roti but uses makke ka aata (Indian corn flour), whole wheat flour, onions and yoghurt.

Address: Hamir Bhavan, 20, Bedla Rd, Fatehpura, Udaipur

Muchad Uncle Kitchen

When in Rajasthan, one has to try the laal maas and if you're in Udaipur, then it has to be at Muchad Uncle Kitchen. "He does a very local and traditional laal maas," chef Anand reveals. "They make their own spice mix and that makes all the difference."

Address: 21, 22, RJ SH 32, Dabal, Titrdi, Savina, Udaipur

Charcoal by Carlsson If
 you’d like to take a break from local Rajasthani fare, head to Charcoal by Carlsson for all things grilled. The folks here are very accommodating, willing to grill even vegan options for you on the barbecue and tandoor. There are only a few tables at this terrace restaurant, so call ahead. Book the balcony for a romantic evening or a family mattress for a group of up to eight. Website

Hotel Hilltop The terrace 
of this hotel is the perfect spot for 
a sundowner. As the name suggests, Hotel Hilltop is set atop Ambavgarh Hill, the highest point in Udaipur, and overlooks Fateh Sagar, Swaroop Sagar and the sprawl of the town. It doesn’t matter what you drink—the view will leave you giddy. Website

Jheel’s Ginger Coffee Bar 
& Bakery Perched like a bird over Lake Pichola, this no-frills café makes a super range of coffees and chocolate shakes. It’s apt for a little downtime with a book, over vast views of the lake. Website

Tribute The loveliest thing about this restaurant is its waterfront setting, from where you can birdwatch, as migratory avifauna traverse Swaroop Sagar, the lake near which the restaurant is located. Don’t be puzzled by the horse motifs around the restaurant; they are a ‘tribute’ to Chetak, the legendary horse of Maharana Pratap, the 16th-century ruler of Mewar. Website

Udai Art Café This hip café is run by the charming Meropi Mitrou, a photographer from Greece, who first visited Udaipur in 2011 and later moved here in 2014, leaving home and family behind. Serving some of the best coffee in town, with crêpes that are fresh and sizzling, this is the kind of place where conversation flows freely between tables. Website

Is Ambrai worth the hype? Here are the 10 best restaurants in Udaipur

Udaipur is a city in India where you can either dine like a maharaja relishing a multi-course feast or enjoy a simple ‘unlimited food’ thaali in a budget family restaurant. Wherever you might eat, one thing is assured – the food will always be delicious. All your taste buds will be rewarded – be it hardcore non-vegetarians looking for famous Rajasthani Laal-maans or vegetarians searching for the 800/- per kilo ‘Ker sangri’ (my favourite Rajasthani dish) along with daal baati churma . Whether you want to go on a romantic couple dinner or celebrate someone’s birthday or simply enjoy a fun meal with friends, Udaipur will have a restaurant just right for you. While circumventing the narrow lanes of Udaipur, be ready to get surprised by its culinary offering. You’ll be amazed to see how the city’s food scene go beyond Rajasthani fare. From picturesque fine dining restaurants on the lakeside to chic European-style cafes — the possibilities are endless. Here are the best restaurants and cafes of Udaipur that Travel See Write highly recommends:

The best restaurants in Udaipur

• Ambrai Restaurant  at the Amet Haveli is one of the top restaurants in Udaipur when you are looking for a romantic candle light dinner lakeside. The expansive view of Lake Pichola, City Palace, Jag Mandir, Gangaur Ghat, Lal Ghat and even the Sajjangarh Fort is something that will make you believe you are living a dream.The restaurant has ample options when it comes to picking a cuisine – you can choose from North Indian, Mughlai, Continental, or Chinese here. I had ordered a mix of some mughlai starters (tandoori aloo nazakat, Dahi ke Kebab, Ambrai ke Falafel, and corn sheekh kabab), Rajasthani main course (Ker Sangri, Govind Gatta Curry, Daal-Baati-Churma, miss roti and pyaaz mirchi roti) and their signature mocktail. The food was delicious and quite filling. Frequented by many visitors, both Indian and foreign, the restaurant mostly remains full; therefore, make sure to make a prior booking.

• Khamma Ghani   Restaurant  – This upscale Indian restaurant near the Rang Sagar Lake is another must-visit Lakeview restaurant in Udaipur. The never-ending views over the lake give this restaurant its major draw and appeal. The best time to visit this place is before sunset when the Rang Sagar Lake and the city of Udaipur are coloured in the golden glow. Once the night sets in, the twinkling stars, moon decked up on the eternal dark blue sky ceiling, make the atmosphere even more romantic. Their authentic Rajasthani cuisine is to die for.  Loved their starters and main course. Beteween Ambrai and Khamma Ghani, I liked the later’s food more. Though Ambrai will score more on location.

• 1559 restaurant –  Named after the historical year (1559 AD) when Udaipur was founded by Maharana Udai Singhji, 1559 AD restaurant takes you to the bygone era. The building is about 95 years old, has been kept the same with a bit of fusion concept of art nouveau. With a few contemporary designs and ancient artefacts, this is the perfect blend of old and new. The old world hospitality is best delivered through its multi-cuisines. The classical live music played at the restaurant made the whole experience quite memorable and soothing.

• Upré by 1559 AD  – A terrace restaurant with a beautiful view of the City Palace and Lake Palace, Upre is located in the Lake Pichola Hotel. The multi-cuisine restaurant offers a great variety – from local delicacies to international dishes. The elegant and chic décor of the restaurant with light curtains give the visitors their own privacy. The tranquil and peaceful atmosphere makes it the best place to enjoy the beauty of Udaipur.

• Udai Kothi –  Having been voted as the “best wedding venue” in Rajasthan and the best boutique hotel of India by the National Geographic Traveller, Udai Koothi is a must-visit place in Udaipur. Travel+Leisure voted Udai Kothi as the Best Affordable Romantic Hotels, and UrbanNista&Co. said it is one of the 21 world’s sexiest rooftop pools. Looking at the long list of awards won, it won’t be wrong to say that Udai Kothi has already left a lasting impression on everyone’s mind. If you want to surprise someone special with a truly romantic dining experience, the rooftop terrace restaurant at Udai Kothi hotel will be a great choice. Set around a pool, it will leave an everlasting charming experience. You can choose from an array of multi-cuisine dishes comprising Rajasthani, Indian, Chinese and Continental fares. The romantic ambience with plush backgrounds, moody lighting and delish food on the plate will truly set your mood on fire.

• Millets of Mewar : If you are a health-conscious person, this is a good health food restaurant. You can find a variety of vegan and gluten-free options. The ingredients used are organic, gluten-free and raw. A must-visit for those with a passion for local food and the environment.
• Neel Kamal Restaurant  at Taj Lake Palace is a must-visit at least once in your life. But to get to this restaurant, you need to be the resident guest of the Taj Lake Palace hotel. Royalty and elegance radiate from Neel Kamal’s décor, with throne-like chairs, subtle colours reflected in the lily pond, and a hospitality team ready to take guests on an enchanting gastro0mic journey through the fragrances and flavours of Rajasthan. The live classical music playing in the background completes the refined atmosphere.
• Darikhana  – Part of Jagmandir Island Palace, Jag Mandir’s Darikhana offers seating indoors and outdoors. While the food menu is limited, the restaurant is renowned for its excellent and wide selection of alcohol. Overlooking the City Palace and the Karni Mata Temple, the restaurant offers a serene and calm experience. This is one of the must-visit restaurants in Udaipur. 
• Savage Garden:  Tucked away in one of the old city lanes, this atmospheric café-restaurant is located inside a pleasant, airy blue-coloured building. Its partial open-air setting and numerous flowering plants make Savage Garden a charming place for meals and snacks. The menu offers delectable continental fare. Their pastas, sandwiches, soups and desserts are worth trying.
• Enigma:  Located at Kamlawadi in Udaipur, Enigma is a multi-cuisine restaurant that serves Chinese, Indian and Continental fares. Not only does the restaurant offer delectable food and drinks, but the view from the terrace is stunning, to say the least. You can see the panoramic view of the entire Udaipur city from its roof. The restaurant is also a great place to click some Instagram worthy pictures – you can get clicked on carved winged couple chairs kept indoors or throne and hand-shaped ones at the rooftop. The live music made the environment even more soothing. Also, I loved their open-air pizza and cocktail bar.

Besides the above, I tried ‘ Soul Bistro and Lounge’ by Sun and Moon Udaipur  on a local friend’s recommendation. They claim to be one of the best rooftops café in Udaipur but, frankly, didn’t find them extraordinary. In fact, the food and drinks were pretty average, and the environment was quite loud. Maybe it’s meant more for a younger audience looking to party and not a visitor trying to soak the romantic vibe of the city.

While there is no shortage of the best fine dining restaurants in Udaipur with a great view, the city also has a rich legacy in street food. Your craving for street food items such as samosa, kachori, aloo bada, vada pav, or dabeli will get fully satiated at Sukhadia Circle, Chetak Circle or Mumbai Market. Some places worth checking out are Bohra Ghanpati Mishtan for samosas, Shri Lala Mishtan for kachoris and Bhole Nath Nashta Center for poha. 

And, if you are looking for some cheap but good quality restaurants in Udaipur, you can’t go wrong with  Natraj Dining Hall and Restaurant . Their thali is a must. Places like Bawarchi Restaurant, Queen Café, and Jasmin are worth visiting too.

A few Rajasthani dishes that are an absolute must-try in Udaipur are Gatte ki sabzi, Ker Sangri, Laal Maans, Mawa Kacchori, Pyaaz Kacchori, Samosa, and Mewari Styled Curries.

Udaipur, Rajasthan - Food History

Udaipur, the city of lakes, has a culinary tradition that is deeply intertwined with its cultural heritage. The cuisine of Udaipur reflects the rich history of the Mewar region, famed for its regal hospitality and delectable dishes. The roots of Udaipuri cuisine can be traced to the royal kitchens, where local chefs, known as 'Khansamas', crafted dishes fit for kings and queens. The food was profoundly influenced by the war-like lifestyle of its inhabitants and the availability of ingredients in this desert region.

Dal Baati Churma, a celebrated Rajasthani dish, encapsulates the ethos of Udaipur's culinary style - simple, hearty, and flavorsome. The cuisine here makes extensive use of pulses and legumes, local vegetables, and an array of spices to create dishes that are both nutritious and satisfying. Over the years, Udaipur's food has evolved by embracing influences from neighboring regions while maintaining its indigenous character.

Top 10 Must-Try Food Dishes in Udaipur

• Ker Sangri (Vegetarian): A traditional pickle-like vegetable dish made from dried ker berries and sangri beans, native to Rajasthan.

• Shahi Gatte (Vegetarian): A rich and creamy version of gatte ki sabji, where the gram flour dumplings are stuffed with nuts and spices.
• Mawa Kachori (Vegetarian): A sweet variant of the kachori, filled with dried fruits and khoya, and coated with sugar syrup.
• Malai Ghewar (Vegetarian): A disc-shaped sweet cake made from flour, milk, and ghee, typically soaked in sugar syrup, and topped with cream.
• Bajra Khichdi (Vegetarian): A nutritious and warming porridge made from millet, often cooked with legumes and spices.

What to eat in Udaipur – 15 best local foods

If you’re travelling to Udaipur, what could be more rewarding than dipping your fingers into its local cuisine? No doubt, local foods of Rajasthan such as Dal Bati Churma, Gatte ki Sabji, Egg Bhurji, Kulhad Coffee are the best foods to eat in Udaipur. The city also features many delectable street eateries. So, I have compiled a list consisting of 15 local Rajasthani foods, including snacks, cool drinks, hot beverages that you must try in Udaipur. Take a look at my list and make a point to taste them on your next solo trip.

1. Dal Bati Churma

Dal Bati Churma reserves first place in must-try local foods of Udaipur. What is Dal Bati Churma? Let me break it to you. Dal is ghee, and Bati is a tandoor-baked flaky spherical wheat dough. Churma is a mixture of Bati with sweet water. Dal Bati Churma is the Bati dipped in Churma, spread with ghee. It is served with papad, salad, capsicum fry, mint chutney, chilli garlic chutney, and potato curry, making it the Rajasthani Thali. Your solo trip to Udaipur is incomplete without having this traditional food of Udaipur.

2. Gatte ki Sabji

The next most popular food of Rajasthani cuisine is Gatte Ki Sabji. Gatte, as it is called, is prepared from gram flour then dipped into the curry. People eat this dish with buttered chapatis, bread, and rice. Most of the time, it is included in the Rajasthani Cuisine. That is at least what I saw on the Rajasthani Thali I ate in Santosh Bhojnalaya restaurant.

Buttermilk is a classic yoghurt-based drink in Indian cuisine. It is known by the regional name Lassi. The mixture of yoghurt, water, spices, and sometimes fruit constitutes Lassi. There are salty Lassi, sweet Lassi, and milkshake Lassi. Lassi is a friendly drink for travellers as it helps them cope with the   summers in Udaipur .

Jalebi is an irresistible sweet dish to try in Udaipur. This delicious dessert is deep-fried in ghee and then drizzled with sugar syrup—a treat for sweet lovers in Udaipur.

5. Ice Cola

Next on the list is Ice Cola, a popular icy local food in Udaipur. Ice Colas are similar to ice creams, but they are 100% made of ice flavoured in vibrant colours. More than the taste, their beauty is their colourful appearance. The first time I tasted Ice Cola was on my way to the City Palace and Bagore Ki Haveli  museums in Udaipur . The vibrant combination of colours got my attention. So, I bought one. Needless to say, it spoiled my dress too!

If you enjoy sweets and ice cream, you must try Falooda while visiting Udaipur. Falooda is a cold dessert made with noodles in Mughlai, India. In Rajasthani cuisine, this Mughal-inspired delicacy is a popular treat. Rose syrup, vermicelli, and sweet basil seeds are combined with milk and ice cream to make this dessert.

7. Masala Chai

Next is my favourite drink in Udaipur, Masala Chai (Masala Tea). Well, Masala Chai is not a particularly exciting drink. It is a common beverage found in Indian households. Believe me, the one in Udaipur’s Bombay Bazar that I found while exploring  Udaipur at night  is rightly and richly flavoured!

8. Hari Mirch Chai

The next beverage on the list is Hari Mirch Chai. Hari Mirch Chai translates into Green Chilli Tea. This Rajasthani drink is hot and spicy, with a hint of ginger. It is a delightful medicine for solo travellers who feel jetlagged or have headaches after a long day of travel.

9. Kulhad coffee

Another must-try drink in Udaipur is Kulhad Coffee. Kulhad Coffee’s wonderful flavour comes in the fairly mixed coffee powder sprinkled just before serving. The drink served in tiny, attractive earthly pots called Kulhads adds to its popularity. That said, it is popular among  travellers in Udaipur , gaining the title of “Indian Dalgona Coffee.” For coffee addicts, it is a true delicacy!

10. Mini Mirchi Vada

Now that we’ve seen a handful of Udaipur’s delicious traditional drinks. It’s time to taste the spicy delicacies of Rajasthani cuisine. Mini Mirchi Vada is a spicy Rajasthani snack with cauliflower or potatoes filled inside. It goes well with either tomato sauce or mint and tamarind chutney. I like the second combination, though.

11. Bread Pakora

Bread Pakora is a common snack of the Indian cuisine, usually had along with evening tea in the Indian household. As the name implies, it is made of bread. The bread is fried deeply and then served with tomato sauce. You can easily find this eatery in small food stalls in Udaipur.

A samosa is a fried pastry with a savoury filling, including ingredients such as spiced potatoes, onions, peas, chicken, or other meats. It may take different forms, including triangle, cone, or half-moon shapes. As far as my exploration in Udaipur, I noticed triangular-shaped samosa only.

13. Egg Bhurji

Egg Bhurji, a spicy Rajasthani snack, is also eaten by locals for breakfast and dinner. It comes in a few types-scrambled Egg Bhurji, boiled Egg Bhurji, Paneer Egg Bhurji, Chicken Egg Bhurji, etc. It is famous in Udaipur’s Chetak Circle. If you like Egg Bhurji, you can wrap your food expense in Udaipur for cheap.

14. Pav Bhaji

Pav Bhaji is a famous local food of Rajasthan. You can call it a desi sandwich stuffed with thick vegetable curry. The best part is the mint chutney and onion salad that comes along with it. Pav Bhaji and Dahi Kachori are my favourite snacks of Udaipur.

15. Dahi Kachori

Dahi Kachori? How did I miss this delicious local snack of Rajasthan? So, my favourite snack Dahi Kachori is everything your taste buds want. It is spicy, saucy, curdy, sweet, and sour. It is made from gram dough stuffed with potato masala and made to float in the pool of curd. Yummy!

Local foods hub in Udaipur

I can see after reading the list you are already drooling for Udaipur’s local foods. Now, where do you go to experience them? Except for Dal Bati Churma and Gatte ki Sabji, you can have the best of all the street delicacies in Chetak circle, Bombay Bazar , Hiranmagri food street, and Lake Pichola road kiosks in Udaipur. Similarly, to relish the authentic flavour of Dal Bati Churma and Gatte ki Sabji, visit the  local restaurants in Udaipur .

15 Mouth Watering Food to Try in Udaipur and Where To Find These!

Updated: Feb 14

Udaipur brings up images of historical buildings, royalty, destination weddings and an abundance of beautiful lakes! But this small city steeped in history is also very rich in its food. The food really reflects the ingenuity of the local people who have made the best use of what is available locally and seasonally. With an innovative mix of spices, flours, lentils and some vegetables, there has emerged bountiful cuisines, that really give you the true flavour of this place! And thankfully, the love of local food among the people of Udaipur has ensured that it remains authentic and unfazed by the ‘globalization’ we see everywhere! So if you really want to get a true taste of Udaipur head to the narrow alleyways and discover all the hidden gems!

1. Masala Papad at Roop Ji Nasta Centre

Address: 57, Singhat Wadiya St, Moti Chohatta, Bada Bazar, Nada Khada, Udaipur

The flavourful crunchy padap severed with the spice potato and kadhi

If you happen to be in Udaipur, try out masala papad and curry for breakfast at Roop Ji Nasta Centre in Bada Bazar area. This is almost like a deconstructed samosa or an open samosa where the casing of the samosa is fried separately and served with spicy potato filling and a sweet kadhi (yoghurt based gravy). Locally, this is called as masala papad. The papad is crunchy and mild which perfectly balances the the spicy potato and the delicate sweetness of the kadhi.

The owner and cook Roop ji, who always greet his customers with a big smile in his face

We found the owner and cook Roop ji a humble and true gentleman. He serves his famous masala papad, kesar chai (saffron tea) and few other breakfast items from the shop that his father started 60 years back. Despite being very busy serving other customers he found time to speak with us with a big smile on his face. His masala papad has made him quite famous among food bloggers, yet he remains very humble and has maintained the taste and quality of his food.

2. Paratha at Sai Baba Paratha Centre

Address: Mehta Ji Ki, Badi Maheshwari St, Old City, Nada Khada, Udaipur

The owner who fry hundreds of parathas each day

If you fancy a mouth-watering heavenly aloo paratha, head straight to Sri Baba Paratha Centre at Nada Khada, old city area in Udaipur. Also recommended by Lonely Planet, this place is quite popular for breakfast among locals, food lovers and travellers.

Freshly made parathas bathed in pure ghee are served with butter, daal (Lentil curry) and a spicy pickle. This place offers a wide range of parathas like aloo, paneer etc. and some seasonal specials such as gobhi (cauliflower), mooli (radish), methi (fenugreek) are only available during winter. Just relish each mouthful and don’t bother with counting calories.

3. Hing (asafoetida) Kachori at Paliwal Restaurant

Address: 26, Jagdish Temple Rd, Old City, Udaipur

This small shop keep serving customers mouth watering kachoris for over 4 decades

There are many places to try hing kachori in Udaipur. However, the quality and tase of the kachoris here put it on top league!

The filling is made of moong daal and besan (gram flour); flavoured with spices such as hing (asafoetida), saunf (fennel), chilli powder, garam masala (their own secret recipe) etc. The dough of the kachori also gets flavour from the use of methi (fenugreek) and ajwain (carom seeds) in it. Kachoris are deep fried in peanut oil for long time which enhances all the flavours and makes it fluffy and flaky. The hot kachoris are served with a green chutney made from coriander and mint, and a red sweet chutney made from imli (tamarind).

4. Thali at Nataraj hotel

Address: Bapu bazar main road, Udaipur

The simple yet flavourful thali of Nataraj

Udaipur is famous for Mewari thali and there is no better place than Nataraj to savour this flavourful cuisine. The old Nataraj in Bapu Bazar area has been serving Mewari thali for over 50 years and has attracted many food lovers including famous food critics, chefs and travellers. Among them you have the notable, Anthony Bourdain who visited this place almost a decade back. So, if you are a Anthony Bourdain fan then maybe ask the waiters to show you where he sat to dine, and if you are lucky (like us) you may end up enjoying the mega meal on same spot as the man himself.

We were luck to find the table empty where Anthony Bourdain sat to enjoy this thali

Nataraj serves few very simple yet amazingly flavourful and freshly made dishes in their thali like hing (asafoetida) kachori, seasonal vegetable fry (we got fried okra) dry potato curry, daal, moong ki sabji (mung bean curry), paneer curry, along with freshly made phulka (a type of Indian flat bread) and rice. For desert they serve warm and soft gulab jamun and homemade yogurt.

Top 21 Must-See Places When Visiting New Orleans, Louisiana

Dylan sanders | aug 24, 2024.

New Orleans is one of the top destinations for a vacation in the United States. It is packed with history that runs even deeper than the ghost stories and swamp tours that run rampant across media.

The city is known for its rich culture, the sense of community and inclusiveness that its local natives create and of course, the good natured motto of "Laissez les bon temps rouler!"

So if you find yourself down in southern Louisiana near the Delta, here are the top things that you must to do in the city to get the most out of your time in the Big Easy:

Audubon Zoo

Widely regarded as one of the best zoos in the United States, Audubon offers a wide array of different animals and exhibits. The unique "Louisiana Swamp" exhibit provides a glimpse into the state's wildlife. Don't worry, it also has all of the classic animals as well.

While the most popular option would be Cafe Du Monde, which could still be worth a visit, most locals would recommend Cafe Beignet or Morning Call. It will be less hectic and, in all honesty, a better beignet.

Audubon Park

This beautiful spot of greenery is one of the best spots to go for a walk in New Orleans. Make a day of it and catch a nearby Tulane Green Wave sporting event before or after your time in the park.

Parkway Bar and Tavern: This is one of the most popular spots in the city but for good reason. The award winning James Brown poor boy sandwich has both delicious local shrimp and a smothering of roast beef. Killer Poboys: This is the best poboy restaurant in the city for those dining with a vegan/vegetarian. The Bahn-Mi sandwich is also a great option. It's located inside the iconic Erin Rose bar, which will make another appearance in this article again very soon. Crabby Jack's: While the classic shrimp poboy is delicious, find other iconic dishes like a creole duck quesadilla or cochon de lait poboy as well.

World War II Museum

This is one of the most interesting museum's in the country, offering an extensive background of information on World War II. The unique 4D cinematic experience "Beyond All Boundaries" made by Tom Hanks is a must-see exhibit. There are other immersive experiences as well.

Sit-Down Restaurants

Cochon/Cochon Butcher: Right next to each other on Tchoupitoulas, these sister restaurants have completely different vibes. Cochon is one of the go-to spots for iconic Cajun dishes. The Butcher is where you go to grab a drink, unwind and have some of the most unique bar food you'll see. Muriel's: While in the Jackson Square, this is the fancy option for some delicious Creole food. Commander's Palace: Open since 1893, this has become one of the most storied and iconic restaurants in New Orleans. It's hard to go wrong with any of their classic Creole dishes. Brennan's: After a long night out on the town in New Orleans, it's hard to beat the brunch that Brennan's has to offer.

Bars / Nightlife

Erin Rose: This pub is known for their Frozen Irish Coffee, making it great place to go to escape from the heat of the city of a brief respite. When you walk in, ask for Jeff, the big Marine will take care of ya! Hot Tin: Not to be confused with the Tin Roof Brewing Company, this bar that sits atop the Pontchartrain Hotel offers one of the best views of the city. Carousel Bar: Get there early if you want a seat at the rotating carousel bar! The Hotel Monteleone has a functioning carousel, but it is hard to get a seat at. Lafitte's Blacksmith Shop Bar: If you're going to be on Bourbon Street, you might as well go to an actually wonderful bar. Catch a live piano performance and indulge with their famous purple drank daquiri. Sports Drink: Located right off Magazine Street. During the day it's a wonderful little coffee shop with tremendous vibes that goes by Junk Drawer. At night it becomes home to some of the funniest comics that you'll ever see. Have a laugh and grab a drink! Double Dealer: One of the newer speakeasy's in the city. It's located underneath the iconic Orpheum Theater.

Jackson Square

Jackson Square is one of the hot spots for New Orleans culture. See the beautiful St. Louis Cathedral or shop from one of the local artisans on the street. There's always something happening there and is surrounded by plenty to do in the surrounding area, making it one of the essential stops in the city.

Prytania Uptown Movie Theater

While it may feel weird to go see a movie on a vacation this is one of the most unique places to do it in the United States. This one-screen theater has been open for over 100 years. It has plenty of memorabilia in its lobby to see. Go check out one of the mix of current and classic films that are on the slate and support a family that has been around the city for a long time.

Frenchmen Street

When thinking of New Orleans, most people think of jazz music. When thinking of where to go out at night, most people think Bourbon Street. Frenchmen Street is the best place to spend a night walking in-and-out of bars but you still want the classic live music that the city is known for.

Saints Game / Champions Square

Check out a New Orleans Saints game while in the city, it's a one-of-a-kind atmosphere in the NFL. Checkout the Champions Square tailgate which is an area shared with the New Orleans Pelicans for all of the professional sporting needs in the city.

An ‘American Take on Oktoberfest’: A Massive Beer Hall Debuts in Medford

The Great American Beer Hall opens soon on Mystic Avenue, showcasing New England craft beers—plus pizza, live music, and lots of outdoor space.

It’s time for a “Mystic makeover,” if you ask the team behind the Great American Beer Hall, opening August 31 on Medford’s largely industrial Mystic Avenue. They’re hoping their cavernous venue—complete with roof deck, dog-friendly patio, cold-weather fire pit, plenty of private event space, and parking (!)—will help spur the evolution of a strip that’s home to plumbing supply stores, car rentals, and the like.

• Le Mari Restaurant Brings Mediterranean Tapas to Newbury Street
• Somerville’s Thirsty Scholar Pub Will Become ‘Welcoming’ Cocktail Bar Tall Order
• Kush by Saba Will Bring Modern Mediterranean to Somerville’s Union Square

The Great American Beer Hall is meant to feel like “the American take on Oktoberfest,” says Brian Zarthar, one of six owners. The 17,000-square-foot space’s design encourages gathering, not holing up quietly in a bar seat alone. You’ll grab a drink from one of several concessions-style bars lining the space and head back to socialize over cornhole or pizza, perhaps watching a game on one of two giant screens or taking in live music. You might bring the kids; you might bring the dog (to the patio). Come colder weather, you might buy a Christmas tree out front before cozying up to the fire pit.

It’s important to the team to showcase New England craft beers, so those make up around 75 to 80 percent of the 30 draft lines, says Zarthar, with some easy-drinking, familiar national names comprising the rest (Guinness, Blue Moon, and such). “If you come here and like a beer, I want you to know that you can [also] drive to that brewery and spend a weekend visiting,” says Zarthar. Highlights from the opening list include Portland, Maine-based Bissell Brothers’ Substance IPA; Littleton, New Hampshire-based Schilling’s Jakobus German pilsner; and Burlington, Vermont-based Zero Gravity’s Green State Light lager. Massachusetts favorites like Vitamin Sea , Widowmaker , and Idle Hands also make the list. Not in the mood for beer? There are also wines, cocktails, and seltzers.

Chef Nick Dowling—cofounder of Snappy Pattys in West Medford and an alum of Boston’s Franklin Café—is at the helm of the beer hall’s in-house restaurant, the Lantern. (Paul Revere’s midnight ride inspired the name as Medford was on the horseback route.) Pizzas are the focus: “It’s a cross between Neapolitan and New York-style, as Nick describes it,” says Zarthar. “I gave him the task of creating a pizza or two that can’t be replicated anywhere else, so you’re going to see stuff on our menu that you’ve never seen before.” The Lantern also features a variety of dipping sauces for pizza crust.

As time goes on, Dowling will expand the menu, adding salads, small bites, and a handful of entrees, such as brisket burnt ends and cedar plank-roasted salmon. With a daily noon opening, the beer hall team is angling for lunch business in addition to dinner and late-night.

In the short term, the inspiration for the Great American Beer Hall comes from a 2018 trip Zarthar took to visit his brother, Mark, in Raleigh, North Carolina. (Mark is also a partner in the beer hall.) “We went out to an outdoor food hall, and I noticed a lot of people were coming in, just having drinks and gathering,” says Zarthar. “I wondered, ‘If I came home and did this on Mystic Avenue and focused on the craft beer, what could it be?’” Because making something of Mystic Avenue, it turns out, has been a goal of the Zarthar family for much, much longer, and this could be the project to trigger further growth.

In the 1950s, the Zarthars’ great-grandfather, Burt Consentino, partnered with Murray Matrundola to open Murray Supply, a plumbing and heating equipment business, on the street; their grandfather, Ronnie Cosentino, joined as a partner in 1962. Together, the partners invested in several pieces of Mystic Avenue real estate, at the time envisioning the strip someday becoming an auto mile. (When Matrundola passed in 2011, his son, Andrew, became a partner in the business and the real estate with Ronnie, who continues working four or five days a week today at 91 years old.) The auto mile didn’t come to pass, but now Brian Zarthar—who shoveled, painted, and cleaned the properties as a high-school senior 20 years ago before moving up to property manager and finally vice president—has a more hospitable vision. More restaurants, some housing, maybe a hotel, “rejuvenating an area that so badly needs it,” he says. “I’d love to change the use from industrial to medium-density, with people living here, riding bikes, walking here. The road is so close to Boston; there’s so much potential.”

Perhaps the time is right: Medford is in the middle of a rebirth. Cambridge and Somerville expats are moving to Medford for more affordable space but hoping to find a similar wealth of dining, drinking, and entertainment. The Chevalier Theatre has been attracting huge acts (Ringo Starr’s coming in September); the 2023 openings of Deep Cuts and El Tacuba have brought in late-night music and tequila, respectively, to Medford Square. The time has come for a project like this, and it seems reasonable to expect that the growing amount of fun in the Square can trickle south a mile onto Mystic Avenue.

Like the street, the Great American Beer Hall will continue to evolve: The mezzanine and roof deck won’t be open on day one (look for them later this fall), and most of the furniture is temporary, with the real items delayed by supply-chain issues. But the doors are opening. Zarthar and the team—and Medford—have been waiting long enough.
