“ Best marwari style food ever.. Fully vegetarian food, it was so soft and scrumptious. It’s unlimited thali system.. although they do-not refill on the sweet Full rajasthani vibes. We went in a group of 8 people and ordered 3 different thalis, they serve lassi, papad and gwar fali(fermented,dried and fried cluster beans) before the main thali. Kadhi was wonderful. Ghette ki sabzi was amazing(it’s basically gram flour balls curry) Rice quality is great, not too dry and yet powdery.. We had rosogulla and kheer.(yummy) Nice interiors Even they had a great spot for outdoor photos. Could have invested more on the staff and their amenities, by helping them understand more about customer satisfaction and customer service. Toilets we’re worst, with all paan n smell. ”
“ If you love Rajsthani food, come here . They serve four types of Thali. Prices are moderate. Most items are refilled. I visited as a part of large group, many members were fond of Rajasthani food and they were very happy. I found the food moderately OK. Service was good and servers were pleasant to interact. They were happy to refill. Parking is slightly difficult to find during peak lunch time. Prices are reasonable. ”
“ Just a hype for Rajasthani Marwari food, nothing fancy. Food is ok ok and not worth the price. Service is average and sometime delayed. Atmosphere no music or cool vibes just too much noisy and sound of people speaking. They will serve you as many roti and dal/sabji but no extra sweets or raita. Roti served is most of the time normal ones not missi roti. I would say not so authentic Marwari food. Place is full of dust and quite dirty and even the washroom are not so clean. ”
“ We had a chance to visit this lovely rajasthani restaurant near raja ki mandi railway station Agra. Restaurant was full with customers during that time around 1.30 PM . There traditional thali was really fantastic. Besides food their hospitality was beyond comparision. Food prices were quite reasonable. International decoration and atmosphere was lovely. However entrance was not so attractive. Parking of vehicle was also not easy there. Overall a lovely restaurant. Restaurant remain closed after lunch hours. So kindly check the timings before visit ”
