Aha! You are a non veg lover like me! Looking for restaurant which serves best quality non veg food in Jaipur. Jaipur, though most population is veg here, has lots of places for non veg lovers. It offers great food with best ambiance. Jaipur though mainly known for it’s rich culture and tradition is famous for it’s food too. You get a varied number of cuisines including veg and non veg. It’s hard to miss the Mughal influence in the richness of flavors of Rajasthani food.
I had been in Jaipur for few months and I can vouch for the splendid non veg cuisines you found here.
1. Niros
Niros is one of the oldest restaurants in Jaipur. It is said, it was opened even before partition of India. This is the most pristine and iconic place of Jaipur to have dinner. It’s centrally located at MI Road and it hasn’t changed much over the years. I and my brother went here during the Bhai Duj time, there was a queue and we had to wait for over half an hour. Despite it’s popularity, the restaurant is bit small to my expectations. But the interior of Niros was quite sleek. Dim lighting, mirrored walls and mirrored ceiling, and bit of plants here and there.
Address: Panch Batti, MI Road, Ashok Nagar, Jaipur, Rajasthan 302001, India
Hours: 11AM to 4PM, 6PM to 11PM
Niros has kind of two rooms, one bigger and one quite small. We got a seating in the smaller one. Coming to the food, Niros has lot to offer. It is a delight for both veg and non veg lovers.
We ordered tandoori chicken for starters. It was well cooked and with perfect blend of spices. For main course we had the famous laal maas, tandori roti and garlic naan. The laal maas was rich in flavours, well spiced and juicy. I had give anything to have this laal maas right now. The Tandoori Rotis were crisp full of fresh aroma. Garlic naan was a sight to behold. We also ordered butter chicken. Though it looked too red, it was delicious. For dessert we had Caramel Custard and ice cream with gulab jamun. I had the best custard in Jaipur here.
If you like mutton, you should try the laal maas of Niros. There are many Chinese food options too.

2. Kebabs & Curries Company
Kebabs and Curries Company has become very famous chain in Jaipur. It has no 6 outlets in Jaipur only. I have been there multiple times and never been disappointed. If you are a chicken lover, you will find varied mouth watering options. The food is fresh and has the right tinge of all the spices.

3. Spice Court
Spice Court is quite popular for it’s food. I had been here a few times now. Once we had to wait for over an hair for a table of two. Reservation is must here. During winters in the evening, they have bonfire and an ensemble of Rajasthani folk dancers.The ambiance is quite good. Coming to the food keema batti is the most recommended. It is very filling and very delicious. It is something very different I had and most delicious food I had in Jaipur.

4. Handi
Handi opened in 1980s. It has pristine decor. Handi offers indoor seating as well as rooftop seating. Once you enter the restaurant, you would love the ambiance. The food here is good too. Once we went during the festive time and it was quite crowded. The staff is very good. On complaining about the laal maas, they readily changed it and provided a fresh one. We enjoyed their handi chicken and tandoori chicken. Their chicken biryani is good too.

5. The Forresta Kitchen & Bar
Forresta is a beautiful bar in the heart of Jaipur. The first thing you will notice after entering this restaurant is the lush greenery everywhere. There is both indoor and outdoor seating in the restaurant. The outdoor seating of Forresta is too well decorated and well spaced. The comfortable seating and calm ambiance adds up to the beauty of the place.
Coming to the food, the kebabs and tikkas are mouth watering. Butter chicken is very good here. I loved the chicken dishes here. They were extremely delicious.

The restaurant is really well decorated an is very spacious. You can easily go in groups here. Comfy seats and serene ambiance of the place is quite welcoming. You can easily go for dates here.
