Samode Haveli Restaurant

The heritage hotel Samode Haveli, long a favorite of European visitors, has moved its main restaurant into a wonderful new wing overlooking the mansion’s gardens. The main dining room features crystal chandeliers, marble floors, heavy wooden furniture and ancestral treasures, including Raj portraits, but there is a lovely private dining room and cozy terrace nooks for drinks and the best tables are outside overlooking the garden area. This is a great spot for lunch during a day of sightseeing or shopping and for a festive evening meal. The family that owns the hotel are passionate about their Indian cuisine but also offer Nepalese and South Indian options.
