Rama’s Kitchen

Named after the owner, Rama’s Kitchen has done quite well for itself over the years, in part due to their large menu. Nepali, Indian, Italian, Chinese and Continental dishes are all served in abundance, and they are all done perfectly. Although Rama might not be the one cooking today, she has trained all of her staff quite well.

The restaurant is up on the second floor overlooking Thamel Marg and has a surprisingly comfortable interior. Although just a fraction more expensive than the small street-level restaurants, the food here still qualifies as budget friendly. The beauty of Rama’s is that they also have some higher end options that will allow you to feel like a king without breaking the bank. A delicious steak will set you back around Rs 400 or a giant wood-fired oven pizza between Rs 300 and 400, depending on toppings.
Best Bet? Their dal bhat is definitely the most filling for the price. It’s available in veggie, chicken, buffalo, fish, pork and mutton varieties, will set you back less than Rs 300 and keep you stuffed for at least a few hours.
