A legendary Udaipur eatery famous for its unlimited and authentic Rajasthani and Gujarati thalis, served quickly in a traditional dining hall setting.
Discover what makes this destination truly special

Natraj Dining Hall & Restaurant is a local institution in Udaipur, famous for its unlimited vegetarian thali that features a mix of Rajasthani and Gujarati dishes. The experience here is less about fancy decor and more about authentic, delicious food served quickly and efficiently. Upon being seated in the large, functional dining hall, you're presented with a large steel plate (thali) with numerous small bowls (katoris). Servers move around continuously, filling your plate with items like dal baati, gatte ki sabzi, various seasonal vegetables, kadhi, rotis, rice, papad, and sweets. The atmosphere is constantly busy, especially during lunch and dinner hours, with a mix of local families, office workers, and tourists. The service is incredibly fast; your thali is assembled in minutes, and refills are offered proactively until you signal you're full. It's a place to go for a hearty, traditional meal that offers great value for money. Don't expect a quiet, leisurely dining experience; instead, prepare for a flavorful and authentic culinary adventure that's a core part of Udaipur's food scene.
