Damruwala Restaurant

डमरूवाला

A budget vegetarian thali restaurant beside Mahakaleshwar Temple; the dal bafla thali is a popular meal after worship.

Located at 38 Mahakal Marg, it is a 5–7 minute walk from the entrance of Mahakaleshwar Temple, reached by a narrow lane and stairs. It is pure vegetarian and specialises in three thalis: Malwa-style dal bafla, North Indian home-style thali and vegetable pakora thali. Once you order one thali, most dishes can be refilled. Reviewers praise the home-style taste, quick service and good value, and recommend the garlic chutney. Some find hygiene average and say its reputation is overstated. During festival peaks seats fill up and you may need to wait. About ₹150–300 per person.
