The staff is over-worked and rude, the food below average and they serve the standard watery coffee like in all of Khajuraho. It is just that Raja Cafe is strategically located at a shady corner just in front of the Western Group of Temples More

I will start off by saying this restaurant has the best view of the temples in Khajuraho.Raja Cafe has a fantastic roof terrace as well as patio tables & an Air-Conditioned inner part.However it is overpriced and although it is definately one of the best restaurants in town its food doesn't live up to its image.I ordered locally spiced chicken...

This is just opposite the Western Group of temples, and we visited it on a whim. It was just as well as we were pleasantly delighted with the food both Indian and Continental. My sister wanted to eat continental food and it was quite reasonable considering it was Khajuraho and not a metro city. What was even good was the... More

The garlic breads were bland. Cold drink served was expired but was replaced. it is overpriced. The waiter there was honest enough to tell us that pastries are not fresh and must not be ordered. We ordered only starters and hence based on that we do not recommend starters at least. More

Overrated in travel guides. Don't go there if you're a woman alone. Guys hanging around at the gate to the restaurant leering at you. Unpleasant. Waiter sloppy, bangs plates on the table, and before you had your last sip or if you read something, you're asked "anything else" meaning: pay and go! Disrespectful. A bit better if you come with...

The food here is definitely good qua taste & quality, although not as outstanding as in some of the top places you may have been in Mumbai, Delhi, Rajastan or elsewhere. We liked the terrace seating, overlooking the temples, but the garden downstairs is a comfy alternative if you would like to stay out of the sun More
