Where to Eat in Mount Abu

Most places to eat in Mount Abu are close together, along Nakki Lake Road, in the main market and near the bus stand. That makes it easy to plan meals around your sightseeing, with lunch in town after the Dilwara Temples and dinner near the lake.

Almost everything here is vegetarian, and the most common meal is a Rajasthani or Gujarati thali. For something lighter, the stalls around the lake serve chaat and snacks in the evening.

Not sure what to order? The Mount Abu food guide starts from the dishes — what each one is, when to eat it, and which of these kitchens is known for it.

Tips for Eating in Mount Abu

  • Nakki Lake Road has the widest choice and is handy for dinner after the lake or Sunset Point.
