Neelam Restaurant - Udaipur    Share

Came here for dinner one night as it was close to my hotel and it came so highly recommended on TA. The restaurant is up 3 flights of steep steps and I thought to myself, this better be good for all this climbing. Inside, it’s decorated like a cheap restaurant with plastic chairs and tables you’d see in street stalls, and about as hygienic. There a simple two sided menu with plenty of vegetarian options. I ended up ordering plain rice and Tarka Dal. It’s a simple, but tasty dish with pulses that I’ve had many times before. The dal could’ve been soup, such was the barely present pulses. The rice was warm and cooled down fast, so I ended up having to really mixture the rice and dal to keep the meal from getting too cold. After finishing the meal and walking back down the stairs, I happened to see the kitchen and it was not a pretty sight. Honestly, I don’t know what all the fuss was about and the hygiene of the place left a lot to be desired.

The best thali I ate in the whole rajasthan trip - probably the best I have eaten in some time... Food cooked to perfection and bursting with flavour. Its home cooked - so quite healthy. Nice people running the place. Service was slightly slow , but well worth the wait.

There is a family which prepares the food. Its actually home cooked food and not for name sake. Very healthy and less oily and with superb taste. If you are near to this restaurant location, make sure to give a visit. Cuisine is pure veg. Also the restaurant is very popular with foreigners. Roof top dining is also available.

Amazing place! Been there once for dinner and once for thali at lunchtime. The food is delicious at very good prices. The owners were very friendly and made sure that everything is fine and we liked the food. The interior is very basic, but the food is awesome!

Going by the rating and recommendation I read online. I opted this place for lunch. The interiors are not so fancy but the food is delicious and feels home cooked. I came out to eat with my parents who got tired of eating, oily spicy and thick curries after travelling. Highly recommended!
