Looking for a place with delicious homely meals? Check out our residences in Indore.

Oiya, Janjeerwala Square

Oiya is one of the more popular non veg restaurants in Indore. The interiors look dope. And the bucket loads of options on the menu are doper. Plus, the seating is pretty comfy too. And on top of that, this is the most budget-friendly restaurant on this list. No wonder why it’s the second-most visited place for millennials, after a 90’s playlist’s comment section.

Must-Try: Supreme Burger, Italian Fries

Location: 245/5 Anoop Nagar, A.B. Road, Old Palasia, Indore

Timings: 8:30am – 11pm

Cost for Two (INR): ₹250/-

Kebabsville, Vijay Nagar

Kebabsville is pretty famous for serving – well no points for guessing – delicious kebabs. Along with some of the best meat curries in town. Also, they majorly use farm produce in their recipes. So if not Kebabsville, they could have easily named themselves ‘Farmville’ too (remember Farmville? *sigh*).

Must-Try: Tangdi Chicken, Jumbo Prawns

Location: Sayaji Hotel, H-1, Scheme 54, Vijay Nagar, Indore

Timings: 7pm – 11pm

Cost for Two (INR): ₹250/-

Vidorra, Old Palasia

Vidorra is, for sure, one of the top rooftop restaurants in Indore. And like with every other rooftop place, the best time to visit is during the night. But that’s also because the interiors come alive with neon lights and live music. Perfect for people who love a retro vibe. Or creatures who can’t survive without being under RGB lights. Also known as gamers.

Cafe Terazza, AB Road

Cafe Terazza is another rooftop restaurant cum cafe with a jaw-dropping view. The menu features a variety of cuisines like Continental, Chinese, and Italian. Plus, their decor is hip with cool posters of your favourite bands, including album covers of The Beatles. Which is not surprising at all, given they’re located on ‘AB Road’ (if you’re a true Beatlemaniac, you’ll know).

Must Try: Lasagna, Pastas, Alfredo Pasta

Nafees Restaurant, New Palasia

Nafees Restaurant is one of the best non-veg restaurants in Indore. Their specialty is Mughlai cuisine, which explains their Mughal darbar-inspired decor. If William Dalrymple was a restaurateur instead of a writer, he would probably open something like this. No doubt about it.

Location: 4/5, 5th Floor, Pushpratna Solitaire, New Palasia, Indore

Vrindavan Restaurant, New Palasia

Everything about the Vrindavan restaurant will wow you over. And especially their delicious yet unusual dishes. Like the Lauki ki Sabzi or Arbi Masala. Mainly things that you forbade your mum to cook. So basically, if your mom ever finds out that you are relishing lauki and arbi, you’ll probably won’t ever be welcomed in your home again. But the flavours of Vrindavan Restaurant will, at least, momentarily make that deal worth it.

Chokhi Dhani, Datodafatha

Chokhi Dhani is not just a typical restaurant. It not only serves authentic Rajasthani food, but offers a lot of fun things to do. Like rides, games, swimming facilities and even puppet shows. And trust us, puppetry is something you should definitely witness live. Especially if the only puppet you’ve ever known is Kermit the Frog from the bazillion GIFS you sent to your bestie.

Location:9th Mile, Datodafatha, Khandwa Road, By Pass Road (South), Indore

Timings: 11am – 11pm

Believe it or not, the ‘Waterfall restaurant Indore’ is located on a pool created by a live waterfall. So you can actually dip your feet in water while enjoying their live barbeque grill. Now, we have no idea how they came up with this concept. But it is, for sure, some Elon Musk level creativity to sell their idea of a restaurant.
