Pros:- tasty food- owner is very attentive to your order and ensures you get what you have exactly ordered- my Girlfriend felt the food was a bit spicy for her (she has low tolerance of spice) so the owner ensure that he gave her sweetned curry to mix with the regular curry to make it enjoyable for her as well.Cons:- place is a bit hard to find as there are no signboards below on the street indicating the restaurant is on top.All in all if you mange to find this place you are in for a treat.

Very tasty food. You will love the desi tadka present in all the sabzis.. very indian food . Great for our Indian tastebuds.

Best reastaurant raj mandir cinema hall is visible, like a roof top dinner and from menu to the dishs it is up to the mark fanstastic.

Their foods were tasty and their signature is garlic naan. It was very delicious as they use fresh ingredients and herbs to make the naan. However hygiene wise I would need to deduct some points and also for the setting and standard, they are over-charging the customers.

To take a feel of the old city and a treat to your taste buds its a perfect place for the dhaba lovers. A must visit place!

It was a great restaurant to go to, especially if you like spicy food then you must go with your friends and family. The taste was amazing.

AS PER NAME WROST WORTHLESS FOOD ITEM AND NO USE CORONA GUIDELINES

Great taste and ok prices. Try the Kaju Kari, a cashew dish. Very friendly. Showed us how the food was cooked, let us participate!

Sitting on the top of jaipur shops and eating food is good experience. Dishes here are too oily and spicy so those who like spices can relish. Rates are vary reasonable and service is good. Overall good

Out of the blues. Suggested by local residents, a good find. Small steps going above after shop no 10. An open terrace restaurant above with delicious and mouth watering delicacies. Tried butter paneer, kulche, dal fry, masala papad. Amazing taste.Taste: ****Place: ****Value for Money: ****

The food n service are too good. Ambiance is simple. The Restraunt is listed in India Book.

My all time favorite

Nice tasty punjabi food

Food was delicious. Open air restaurant in city near new gate.

Newly renovated. Delicious food, value for money

Small rooftop restaurant on the wall of the Pink City. The entrance is a stairway in between a couple of clothing stores and can be easy to miss, but keep an eye for a stairway and sign that says Ganesh Restaurant above it.Once you head up stairs, youll see a rooftop with chairs and tables. The sun was beaming while we were there so we opted to sit inside which was nicer compared to being outside.Food was delicious and some of the best curry Ive had so far in India. Definitely recommend the garlic naan. We asked for no butter or ghee to be used and only a little bit of oil to be used and they understood and delivered.We were also offered a palate cleanser at the end of our meal with aniseed (I think) and sugar.A little pricier than what youd normally pay (lunch was 700 rupees for two curries, two garlic naans and a serving of rice) but well worth the extra money.

Food is merely average - not too great. The price is rather pricey as well. What I liked about this place is the location on the rooftop. The service is also pretty decent.

We had a great meal here. We were the first guests for the day and sat out on the roof and watch the bazaar come to life. The food was delicious and we enjoyed the interaction with the staff.

Rooftop restaurant ❤️ dinner under open sky ... really loved it

Decent local food but very nice staff and nice location but hard to find. The cook invited us to his kitchen. A Little bit pricy.

This was the most adventurous Ive been on my India trip with a friend. We are two women travelling across Rajasthan for 2 weeks. Got there at 6pm and the first part of the adventure is finding the entrance (see picture). We then climbed to the first floor where the restaurant was indicated to us, and were greeted by a group of men, just staring. Continued to the left and realised there was absolutely no one, but another group of another 8-9 men about the kitchen area. We were greeted furthermore with a nerve-wracking laugh by two waiters. Finally got to order the Ganesh special (curry with chickpeas, paneer, onions, red peppers and cabbage) and the garlic naan. It was delicious, but the atmosphere was just too overwhelming for us to enjoy our dinner without worrying about our safety. Would recommend solo female travellers do not go by themselves and to probably wait until 7pm not to feel too awkward about sitting completely alone.

While walking in the corridor of Nehru Bazaar, you might miss this small 2’6” entrance which leads to a narrow and straight flight of staircase and ultimately to a metal board showing direction to Ganesh Restaurant with the help of an arrow.Food is typical Rajasthani and awesome. Its a jugaadu Roof Top but yes, the overall ambience needs to be worked on tremendously!!The place will not impress at all but if you are fond of Rajasthani food like Sev Tamatar ki sabji and Garlic naan, please avoid all foul smell and broken metal furniture... jus enjoy the taste of food in front of you!!

Good Punjabi food. Only for pure veg.Jain option is also available.Test is too good. ambiance is not good.its look like dhaba.

Just ok ok

Good scene....Wow Tast

Nice

A bit too espensive and the different dishes had the same taste. Its a nice location however they should keep it cleaner,

This restaurant should stop being recommended by Lonely Planet. Even though the place is on the top of the remparts, they abuse from tourists and added 15% tax, no detailed bill, and no explanations on the taxes. Stopped speaking English when we noticed that and we could’t do anything. Local Indians confirmed they did not pay any tax. They takes advantages from tourist and this should not be suggested by Lonely Planet. When reading Google comments for this restaurant, they are used to do that and my comment is not the first about this!

Tasty and healthy food on reasonable rates. good restaurant.

Too expensive. I think they put their prices up because they’re in Lonely Planet. Food is tasty but came to 350 for one curry and rice. Now that I think about it they over charged me as well

Our AirBNB Superhost recommended this place and it was just around the corner from where we were staying. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was artsy and fun. The restaurant is on the roof of a building and you have to be a bit careful so you dont fall off.

Recommanded by lonely planet. Good location but just-so-so food and extremely high price. not worth.

If you are interested in good and tasty vegetarians food, this could be your next destination. Good people at work.They know how to serve and pampere visitors.

Nice food for the price. Looks a bit dodgy but if you want a nice cheap eat here is your place. It is up on the roof above the shops so you can look down and the busy streets

Rooftop restaurant. Awesome food. The narrow staircase entrance is easy to miss amongst the row of shops.

Finding this restaurant was half the fun!The staff was nice and the food was delicious. A great experience.

It is a very nice place to sit and talk with family the taste of food and the quality of the food was awesome. It is a open air I mean on the roof nice view and awesome taste.

L cant understand why it is recommended! Food was ok, but nothing special. Much too expensive. Prices on the menu are already much above average. What really made me angry was that he then presented a bill with just a singe number on it, which appeared to be much too high, even for the high Prices from the menu. I listed my 4 dishes and grabbed the menu, which he had hidden behind his counter - obviously for a reason. It turned out that he had made up new prices in his head. I payed the corrected amount (about 100 Rs less) - while he was swearing. But finally he agreed as he realised his betrayal had failed. Do not go there or at least watch out!

An very old place almost 30 years old Restaurant serving quality indian food in a cheap price. Average 400 for 4 people. Good location better for dinner.

Very expensive,not at all value for money .

Food was really yummi - especially the freshly made garlic naan. Basic but inviting setting, you can watch the chef preparing the food. However food was definitely overpriced!

One of the oldest dhaba in the walled city with a nice view of local markets of pinkcity from the top. Bit pricey compared to the quality of services offered. Good tastes good. A renovation is required I guess just a little maintenance kind of.

I read the previous reviews about the more expensive tourist costs and thought I’d give it a try anyway. We had the garlic naan (110 rupees), paneer butter masala (180), Ganesh special curry (180) and rice (100). All dishes were good and delivered promptly. We ate while the four older gentlemen sat at the register and another four guys who worked there sat and stared at us. The rooftop was novel without much of a view.The bill was written on a slip of paper and when we inquired as to the greater total, the server explained it was a service tax. We didn’t drink the bottled water they had on the table, which wasn’t complimentary. A local family showed up later, yet I couldn’t see if they got the so-called local prices.It was $12.50 CAN for dishes that I thought were okay, not amazing. It made me feel better when I walked across to Sweet Dream restaurant and saw they had the same prices for their plates.

Best veg food in town.... Missi roti to die for.... Prices are affordable..... Very humble place....

Ganesh Restaurant is roof-top dhaba located near M I Road, a short walking distance from Bapu Bazar / Nehru Bazar.A colleague who has been their loyal customer for many years, brought me here for lunch. On 1st look, it didnt seem like a restaurant but I was told that the tables are put up (in the open area) in the evening. We were seated in the dining area outside the kitchen.We ordered for GATTE KI SUBZI [INR 80], PANEER BUTTER MASALA [INR 90], SEV TAMATAR [INR 80], MASALA ROTI [INR 15]Gatte Ki Subzi was nice & flavourful with Gatte were nicely cooked. Paneer cubes though small were soft, the gravy tasted similar to the Gatte Ki Subzi gravy. Sev Tamatar was made slightly spicy on request but tomatoes were cut into huge chunks; 4 pieces from one tomato, which made it uncomfortable to consume. Masala Roti was a nice innovation, a mix of dry spices was sprinkled on the dough & then baked in the Tandoor. All in all the food was good to taste; slightly oily in texture.Hygiene in the dining area is one thing which I think the restaurant lacked. The kitchen looks pretty old but could do with a nice touch up & being kept a bit more clean.A good dining experience!

Overpriced menu for foreigners! Lonely planet should stop to recommend this place!

Best to best ever food restorent superb food quality and hygienist food here taste is awesome

Tastes amazing. Try salty lassi. Tastes simple, but I liked it a lot.

Good place and food too. What I liked the best was the view from the top.

Food was good, food portion (half plate) is also enough for two people.

Its very popular in Bapu Market but is not that great to sit, food is good here. Prompt service.

I love this place... Yummy food.. Visting this place from my childhood and as much as I remember food taste is same ,they serve food on open roof and have small AC hall. One should should enjoy the yummy Food.Very near to New Gate chaura rasta.

Careful, rip-off place! maybe used to be good a few years ago and got mentioned in guidebooks back then. today, they draw from this gone popularity with highly overpriced, medium-quality items and hidden tax surcharge. avoid!

Ambience was not so good

Scam restaurant !!!! To Boycott!!!!!!!Tourist-english menu is much higher than the local one!Double standard!!!!!!!Lonely planet should remove from it`s list!

Food is good but to expensive for what the restaurant is... when we paid there were 80 rupees more and they said it’s GST taxes. After I paid I realized that normally in India they ask around 20 Rs for that. When I told them the man at the reception gave me 50 Rs back! Not nice...

Overpriced menu for foreign tourists. Tried to push high priced items to our meal. Good food but rip-off atmosphere

Overpriced english menu for a small restaurant !!!!!!( Is the Indian menu cheaper ?)! Chapati which is only water and flour is at 20 rs each ( they give you 2 without telling you it will charge 20 rs each) and the ganesh special ( veg) is 180 rs . iLONELY PLANET should remove in his recommandation!

Used to be good but not anymore really unhygienic and bad quality food

Worst food i’ve eaten in my 6 months in India. In a city like Jaipur where everyone is serving up amazing street food and the little hole in the wall cafes turning out great dishes this place is a disgrace and double the price. They served old reheated rotis! I never had that in 6 months in India. Just the worst. Back home I wouldn’t have paid for that meal. Somehow lonely planet has it listed in their guide so they can get away with serving awful food at inflated prices. The only meal I left in india in six months.

I visit this place from childhood. It serves delicious food. It satisfies your dhaba food craving.

We often ho here for family dinnerFood is good

Nice food. Paneer korma must try

It is good, but before it was more good. Ambience is not that good. Its just like eat i a open place! Though, food is good. But as compared to before, i guess it has loosend 1 star. Go check it out, as a dhaba - its okay okay but little bit expensive too.

Very good food .... go at night time

Ganesh restaurent was a restro like dhaba not proper dhaba kind..rooftop..but not like proper rooftop..food was good..lacated in main pink city..in nehru bazar crossed 4-5 shops there was stairs to go there..there was hording for the way

We found this restaurant in the lonely planet India guide book. Despite tasty food there was multiple scams that the owner tried to rake advantage of of us as foreign tourists.1- The total of our meal was 530. He claimed tax was 70 INR but it should have been 26 INR. He claimed tax was 15% despite 5% GST being the standard in India. He refused to explain the extra 10% and eventually lowered once challenged. An official receipt was never issued so I doubt he is even giving the tax collected to the government.2-The English menu is different than the Hindi menu. The prices are higher on the English menu.Lonely planet needs to drop their recommendation of this restaurant.

Among the very old of restaurants in Jaipur nehru bazaar, good food ambience is not so good but food is good if looking for Rajasthani dishes like gatte ki sabzi, sev tamatar etc

Great food and pleasant atmosphere. Great spot to escape the fun nuttiness of the bazaar

Its a small rooftop dhaba, presence is not recognized, you may have to ask the nearby shops for the way. Once you reach, you may not even like to sit or eat but once you eat you will feel good about the food. Garlic naan is awesome.

The food was ok, but the owner was upset when we approached some locals for recommendations. (We had the menu in our hands which was probably with tourist prices). When we received the bill it was over twice as much as we should have payed. Just a number without a detailed description. He refused to show us the menu with the prices and made a new sum which was less. Once we left he followed us in the street and said we hadn’t payed enough. Really dishonest!

While the placement on this map is incorrect, if you can find this place (on the wall of the old city, up a stairwell between two shops just west of New Gate) you will not be dissapointed. While it doesnt look like much (its really just a section of the old wall with some table and chairs spread about) the food will impress. The staff are very friendly and get excited when you take an interest in their cooking. Check out the clean little kitchen (not hard, its right there on display) and watch the cooks make you some awesome garlic naan or the Ganesh Special, then enjoy your meal while watching the goings-on of Jaipur take place on the street below. Incredible value for money and probably the best meal I had in my 5 weeks touring India. A-lip-smacking-Plus

Reached this place when we were very hungry and we werent disappointed. Decent food. Try it. But the place is not like a restaurant but like a dhaba.

Ok! Good inexpensive restaurant. If you are western, they ask you if you want spicy or not!

Tourist trap- different menu- dishonest. Went in with my white girlfriend saw the guy change menus i asked to see both where i found locals paid a lot less! . I asked the waiter for basic food 2 basic curry 4x roti bill came 450 rupees ! I questioned the bill where the owner showed me the tourist menu i told him i was holding the local menu when i ordered and im punjabi, i said his charging me more as im from uk and have a white girlgfriend (i can speak punjabi ) the owner then started shouting at the waiter why he gave me a local menu. He dropped the price to 290 I told him that he was taking the mic and left. Dont come here if you are a tourist. be warned !

Average food. To pricy for the setting and hygiene

Great place for foodies. Dont forget to try an awesome dish malai kofta with tandoori roti.

Very expensive.. Worst food

Good food although terrible service. We could not see the kitchen area and we had our concerns. Otherwise the setting is nice. A place with a great potential but with terrible management.

Amazing food, very cheap and the owner is really Nice and helps You choose.

Amazing food and amazing service.

Too oily and spicy food. The ambience and location of the restaurant is not good.

The garlic nan really was outstanding, and we enjoyed the rest of our food (paneer, cashew nut curry and veg biryani), but the guy who served us was incessantly trying to make us take more food, more water, more roti... Felt like we were being hassled the whole time. And yes, as previous reviewers have said, the bill was marked...

Nice tasty food..good location.

Unbelievable food!!!! Garlic naan and the Ganesh special were amasing. Ive worked at Nobu for three years and had some pretty incredible world class food. I got euphoria! Almost the same food high for 400 rupees! This guys is killin it on the roof top!

Very delicious. Food and enjoy food in open place

Good condition packing and hygienic food

We ordered dishes for 810 INR, they wanted us to pay 1070. Cheaters.

Very delicious food. Garlic naan and ganesh special are must haves & chai.They also feed a colony of rats by throwing food leftover downstairs. Dont worry, the restaurant is on the first floor, so no rats there!

Good service and food quality with open area

Visiting here from childhood. It has cheap price but now i m not fan this place

It serves a very delicious food at the roof nyc place to visit

Rooftop along Nehru Bazaar , near New Gate. Small flight of stairs sandwiched between textile/bangles shops, very easy to miss.Had Ganeshs special (onions, paneer, capsicum curry) , Kaju curry (cashew nut) and breads. Our favourite in Jaipur. Loved the thick, creamy lassi too.

One of the best Jaipur Dal makhani served here

Good resturant with fair prices of food

Solid food with top garlic naan. Beware of the owner trying to slap a 20% service charge on top. After a while he agreed to remove it.

Roti dal is good

Authentic Rajasthani food..staff is friendly..

Loved to the food @ Ganesh Daba.
