We run two dining spaces. The rooftop looks across the city towards Jaisalmer Fort, and there is an indoor room downstairs with sandstone arches for when the afternoon gets too warm. Both serve the same menu. Rajasthani, North Indian, Chinese and Italian, vegetarian and non-vegetarian, cooked fresh to order. You do not have to be staying with us to eat here.

DESERT SPECIALTIES

Authentic Rajasthani Cuisine

Our kitchen celebrates the rich culinary traditions of the Thar Desert with time-honored local recipes prepared fresh daily. Guests can savor authentic desert staples including slow-cooked Rajasthani Dal Bati Churma, wild desert beans prepared as Ker Sangri, savory Papad Mangodi, and delicate Rajasthani Gutta Curry. For meat lovers, our signature slow-simmered Laal Maas is made with authentic red chillies for deep, traditional flavor. Every specialty is crafted with distinct spice profiles and cooked in dedicated vegetarian or non-vegetarian cookware.

Guest Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Timings, dietary requirements, reservations and celebrations.

Yes, on WhatsApp. From late October to early March it is worth booking a day ahead, especially for a table at the edge of the roof. Outside those months you can usually walk in.

Yes. Most of the menu is vegetarian, and we are one of the few veg and non veg restaurants in Jaisalmer that cooks the two in separate vessels. Jain meals are prepared without onion and garlic on request, but tell us when you order rather than after, so the kitchen can start it separately. For anything else, message us before you arrive.

No. Come as you are. The roof gets cold from December to February, so carry something warm if you are eating late.

Yes. We arrange a candle light dinner in Jaisalmer for anniversaries, birthdays and proposals, on the rooftop with the fort in view. Tell us a day ahead and we will hold a table at the edge, away from the rest, and set it up before you come up. For private dining and larger groups, message us on WhatsApp with the date and numbers.

Breakfast is 7:00 to 9:30 AM, lunch is 12:00 to 3:00 PM, and dinner is 7:00 to 11:00 PM. Unlike most restaurants in Jaisalmer for lunch, we stay open through the afternoon as well, so the rooftop is available between three and seven for tea, coffee and snacks.

No. The rooftop and the indoor dining room are both open to everyone. A fair number of our regulars are people staying elsewhere in town who came up once for dinner. Free parking on the property.

Yes, the fort is 1.8 km away and visible from the tables at the edge. The half hour before sunset is when it looks best. In December and January the sun goes down around 5:45, by October and March closer to 6:15, and in summer the light holds until about 7:25.

Yes. Across our 139-item menu, we offer authentic Rajasthani and North Indian non-vegetarian specialties. Laal maas is our signature slow-cooked mutton dish prepared to order. Beyond that, we serve mutton rogan josh, mutton curry, butter chicken, chicken curry, tandoori kebabs, egg dishes, and Chinese non-veg options. Veg and non-veg are cooked in separate vessels.

Main course vegetarian dishes run from ₹200 to ₹550 (with traditional Dal Bati Churma at ₹550), and non-vegetarian mains from ₹350 to ₹750 (with full portions at ₹1000). Fresh rotis start at ₹25, breakfast from ₹100, tea from ₹40, and coffee at ₹60.
