Taste - 4/5 Portions - 5/5 Ambience - 4/5 Service - 5/5 Value for money - 5/5 Serving authentic himachali cuisine, this place is located in the middle bazaar. Small and cozy place reflecting clean & traditional aura. Wooden table seatings at the ground floor are quite comfortable but what actually gives the vibe is the upstairs decor. Small seatings on the wooden floor are sure to give authentic traditional himachali supper feels. The staff is very polite & informed about the menu & preparation time. Divided on the basis of days, the kangri dham thali is served on monday, tuesday, saturday & sunday. Mandyali dham thali is served on rest of the days. Any thali can be shared if ordered in "half". The "full" thali being unlimited is not to be shared. 1. Mandyali Dham Thali - 4/5 On my day of visit, mandyali dham was being served. Rice is served with 5 curries and a dessert. Beans madra, sepu badi, khatta meetha kiddu, kadhi & mah dal were the curries in the thali and the dessert was kaddu & dry fruits sweet. I absolutely loved the sepu badi (lentil fritters in spinach gravy) & the kadhi (yogurt based curry). The taste of the food is delicious even without onions & garlic and the thali comes out as a complete delicious meal. 2. Rehru (warm spiced lassi) - 5/5 This was so flavourful, one of the best lassi that I have ever had. It was nice & warm, had that evident tangy flavour of spices but by no means this took away the essence of lassi. Absolute "must have". 3. Babroo - 3/5 This dessert is a great way to end a traditional meal. It's a fried wheat bun with sweet layer of fillings and is served with a bowl of ghee to pour and relish. You could also try "sidu" which is a similar dessert except the wheat bun being steamed instead of fried.

Having reached Shimla a little past our standard lunch time we were ravenous. We wound our way to this highly recommended and immensely tiny place with all of four tables for some well heeded authentic Himachali food. Our first order was called Mandyali Dham Thali. Along with rice it had five curries- rajma (kidney beans) in yogurt curry (mandra), lentil cakes in spinach gravy (sepu badi), sweet and sour pumpkin (kaddu khatta), yogurt curry (kadhi), black lentil (mah dal) and there was a sixth which we don’t know what it was because it was not mentioned in the menu. The food was as great as the quantity. We shared a half thali between us and our stomachs were totally satiated though our hearts wanted more. Our second order was called Sidu (pronounced sid-du), a Himachali speciality. It is steamed wheat bun with filling. Both sweet and savoury are available. We took the savoury one where the filling was made of khus khus poppy seeds) and split lentil served with green chutney and ghee (clarified butter). Yum yum yum! Not to mention that Sidu was nothing like anything we had eaten before. We finished off our meal cups of steaming hot masala chai though a host of other kinds of teas were also available. The bill? A princely sum of ₹325

This tiny restaurant (it has five tables, each seating four) is very bare-bones, with simple wooden furniture, small Himachali paintings on the white-washed walls, and a menu that’s more or less fixed. They do offer a few à la carte items, such as chai, lassi, and sidu (a steamed stuffed Himachali bun), but the core of the menu is two thalis: a Kangri one, and a Mandyali one, both featuring rice, a selection of traditional vegetarian Himachali dishes, and a sweet. Depending on what day you visit, you can order the thali on offer: the Kangri thali (which has four items, all lentil/chickpea-based) is available on Monday, Tuesday, Saturday and Sunday. The Mandyali thali, available on the remaining days of the week, includes two lentil dishes, one pumpkin dish, and another dish with spinach. You can order the day’s thali either as a full one (for Rs 300), in which case you get an unlimited thali; or a half (for Rs 240), with a standard portion size for everything. We ordered two half-thalis of Kangri, and enjoyed it a lot: the food was delicious, not too spicy or too greasy, and at less than Rs 500 for two people, it’s very good value for money too.

Tucked away in middle bazar of Shimla. This is a very cosy little restaurant. It serves typical Himachali cuisine. The food is excellent and served piping hot. The food is served per thali which costs 320 for full and 240 for half. The full thali comes with unlimited refills and half with fixed food. On Monday, Tuesday, Saturday,Sunday they serve Kangri Dam thali and rest of the days Mandyali Dham thali. The restaurant interiors are made from wood and hives a beautiful look to the restaurant. It also has an attic here the seats are low and you almost sit on floor. Ground floor has four tables and could seat 4 person on each table. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Service is fast and prompt. The place is clean. They also serve famous Siddhu. Its savoury as well as sweet. Served with ghee. One of the most famous and popular restaurant of Shimla.

This is a small, cozy place in Middle bazaar.. just adjoining the mall road: food court. The place serves a bit costly but tasty himachali food. You can have an unlimited meal thali for 300INR, and a sharable half thali for Rs240, but that has only rice with dal, chana, chole, and rice. The food had great spices and we felt the Himachali touch. Also ordered Sidu which is a must try (both sweet and salty ones). This is similar to Chinese steamed bao or bun with a stuffing of khus primarily, and is tasty 😋 Another 'Not to miss' rare delicacy is 'Roharu' which they call a warm lassi, but I felt it was closest to maharashtrian kadhi. This dish has got the ability to save your throat from catching a cough in the cold weather Shimla possesses. You must try this along as you visit. Thanks Himachali Rasoi and will visit again.
