Raja Café
राजा कैफे
A long-running café opened in 1978, directly opposite the exit of the Western Group of Temples, with a rooftop view of the temples from the upper floor.
Founded in 1978 by two sisters from Kolkata, this is one of Khajuraho's oldest tourist restaurants. It sits directly opposite the exit of the Western Group of Temples, and the upstairs terrace looks out over the temple complex. The menu combines Indian and Western dishes, and diners often order burgers, farmhouse pizza, chicken kathi rolls, teppanyaki and English breakfast. Its reputation has declined from its heyday, but it remains a popular place to rest before or after visiting the temples. A meal for two starts at about 600 rupees, and the portions are generous. No reservations needed; it is a short walk away.
