Bar Palladio

$$ Fodor's Choice

With stunning blue walls and decorative details resembling the private rooms in City Palace, this cocktail lounge and restaurant on the expansive grounds of the Narain Niwas Palace Hotel makes for a leisurely retreat, where you can expect to brush shoulders with Jaipur’s upwardly mobile, expats, and trendy tourists sipping whiskey on the candlelit patio late into the evening. Open for dinner and late snacks, Bar Palladio boasts traditional Italian favorites like homemade pasta and salads, as well as a classic cocktail menu.

Khamma Ghani

$$ Fodor's Choice

Overlooking the lake, this spacious restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating exudes ambience without being stuffy, and thus it's one of the best spots in Udaipur for stunning views and authentic food. Take a seat at a table or traditional floor seating alongside windows (gokhra seating) for a hearty meal of Indian or continental dishes. The garlic naan is spot on, as are the curry dishes, which can be prepared to your desired heat preference. At night the patio is aglow with twinkling candles. While it’s a great spot for groups due to its size, it’s also quite popular with locals, who keep returning given the quality and value.

Peshawri

$$$$ Fodor's Choice

Considered one of the city's best (and most expensive) restaurants, Peshwari entices with melt-in-your-mouth, exquisitely spiced and marinated kebabs and other North-West Frontier foods; menu highlights include paneer tikka, chicken makhani, and the dal bukhara, served with an assortment of rotis and naans. The dining area has an outdoorsy, dhaba look—wood beams, shining copper platters, and pots hanging on the walls, with seating at log tables matched with stools. Part of ITC, a luxury hotel chain known for its excellent cuisine, Peshawri has branches in other cities in India.

Suvarna Mahal

$$$$ | Rambagh Fodor's Choice

Once the maharaja's throne room in the original palace, this grand hall within the Taj's Rambagh Palace Hotel---easily one of India's most elegant restaurants---has a soaring, frescoed ceiling, tapestry-covered walls, gold-plated silverware, and a staff eager to serve. It serves dishes from royal kitchens across India, from Punjab to Rajasthan, including both meat and vegetarian entrées; alcohol is available.
