Suryoday - Varanasi

I recently tried the Special Thali at this restaurant and found it to be a simple and satisfying meal. The Thali included a variety of dishes such as sabzi (green beans, carrots, potato, and cauliflower), rice, dal, roti, pickle, butter paneer, raita, salad, a sweet treat, and papad. It was a filling lunch and I would give it 3 stars instead of two because the owner took the extra step to make me masala chai, even though it's not on the menu. Overall, it was a nice experience and I enjoyed my meal. I would consider returning in the future.

This restaurant in Benares offers a small and cozy atmosphere to enjoy some delicious home-style vegan/vegetarian meals. While they do have some vegan options on the menu that aren't labeled as such, you can always request them to use oil instead of ghee to make most dishes vegan. However, some dairy-based dishes are not able to be made vegan at the moment. The highlight of dining here is that the food is easy on the stomach and served in a hygienic manner, which is quite impressive for Benares.

This charming family-run restaurant in downtown Varanasi is a hidden gem. The food is incredibly flavorful and made fresh right in front of you. The staff is attentive and even asked about my spice preferences, offering a non-spicy section on the menu. The air conditioning inside is top-notch, creating a comfortable dining environment. Overall, a fantastic dining experience that I highly recommend.
