What to get+expect:
Shikaar bagh is, in my experience, even better than its famous neighbor Bar Palladio. With both Indian and Asian menus that actually shine equally well. Add in the lush outdoor vibe, peaceful setting, and helpful staff, and this is a place you don’t want to miss. This is the first time I was so busy enjoying my food that I didn’t take any pictures of it.
• Location & Parking: Part of a larger property that also includes shops and a hotel. Ample parking (a rarity in Jaipur) and a peaceful atmosphere away from the city’s noise. Perfect for lingering: lunch plus a stroll around the shops.
• Ambience: Indoor and outdoor seating, both excellent. The outdoor patio is especially great in pleasant weather: my friends and I sat outside while it rained, and it was perfect. More green and relaxed than the vibrant-blue aesthetic next door, but food and setting more than make up for it.
• Food (Asian focus):
Sushi: Tried spicy salmon and rock shrimp rolls: both delicious, but the rock shrimp was a standout.
Korean Fried Chicken (KFC): Absolute 10/10. Dry, smoky, BBQ-rich—huge hit at the table.
Dumplings: Ordered shrimp krapow and truffle: both exceptional, fine-dining quality.
Dessert: Tiramisu was solid and satisfying - so WHIPPED and light
Tip: Go heavy on appetizers here; everything we tried was excellent.
Drinks: Raspberry Cooler was refreshing and well-balanced. Cocktail/mocktail options fit well with the food.
• Service: Quiet, efficient, and very helpful. Staff was attentive without being overbearing. Smoking area available outside.
• Pricing & Practical Tips: Didn’t feel overpriced for the quality. We didn’t need reservations on a weekday, but weekends or tourist season may require a booking. Paid 6000/3 people (great for the experience)
• Overall: Shikaar Bagh nails both Indian and Asian menus, something most restaurants can’t pull off. Peaceful setting, green outdoors, helpful staff, and food that doesn’t miss. Highly recommend for groups, couples, or anyone wanting to enjoy Jaipur dining beyond just aesthetics.
