About the Destination

Overview

Located within the historic ramparts of Amer Fort, 1135 AD offers a dining experience designed to transport you to the era of Rajput royalty. The restaurant is known for its exceptionally opulent interiors, featuring intricate gold-leaf work, mirrored ceilings, and plush velvet seating. Dining here feels like being a guest in a maharaja's private chambers. The space is divided into several areas, including a grand central hall, private dining rooms like the Sheesh Mahal decorated with mirror work, and an open-air courtyard that offers views of the fort's illuminated walls at night. The menu focuses on the royal cuisines of Rajasthan and North India, with recipes reportedly sourced from the kitchens of the erstwhile royal families. Dishes are traditionally prepared and served in silver tableware, enhancing the regal atmosphere. In the evenings, the experience is often accompanied by live performances of classical Indian music, such as sitar and tabla. It is a place for a special occasion meal rather than a quick bite, focused on atmosphere and a luxurious culinary journey.
