Good Decor, Average food

This was the first time i got the oppourtunity to dine at Rajwadu with my family since i am in Ahemdabad.The palce has a excellent village theme. There is a lot for kids to enjoy.The clay moulding,monkey show are the favourite for kids.gullaks for the people who love to save money are the m ain attractions because they save money here too as they get the gullak free of cost.
This is the place for people who cannot eat thalli and their tummies are half full just after seeing the empty thali.
The food is not very great but ehat i liked about the place is the great ambience and the free gullak.

A Fusion Restaurant?

Rajwadu, is more of a fusion restaurant. The restaurant is quite traditional in its ambience. It trancends your mood into a lazy, care free atmosphere. The puppet show and the dances mesmerizes the new comer. There is never a dull moment while you wait to be served the great `Thali’. This is where a Gujarati (or anyone who knows what authentic Gujarati Food means) is disappointed. While the food served is better than average. It is certainly not Gujarati. Most dishes seem to be blended versions of Rajasthani and Kathiawadi concoctions. Authentic Gujarati food has less oil, spices are simple and the look is more wholesome than the oily, mushy, sludgy brown coloured fusion food that is being doled out. It may be a treat for the NRIs and the foreigners, however it s far from the authenticity of Gujarati food that they claim it is

Amazing Village Theme Experience

This is not a restaurant - it's an experience. This place is beautifully and naturally lit with kerosene lamps. The entrance is adorned by foliage, amazing masonry work, and stone carvings in the wall. It opens up into a reception area, which then opens up into a proper village setup. This includes streams complete with small pedestrian bridges, musical shows and puppet shows, pottery classes, and the traditional manjas littered all over the place for the leisure of the patrons. Enjoy ginger flavoured nimbu paani while your table gets set. The tables themselves are sit-on-the-floor types, completely traditional.

Now on to the food. It's your traditional thali concept. An army of men approach you with all kinds of different things - white butter, jaggery, Indian salad, sabjis, different kinds of rotis, curry, daal, endless chaas - it just doens't stop! When you're ready to pop, guess what - it's now time for khichdi and ghee! Oh my!!! This of course comes to an end with garam fresh jalebis, matka kulfi, and other assorted sweets.

All in all, this place is certainly not to be missed, especially if you're a thali fan. The food does have a traditional guju taste, so if that's not your thing, you needn't worry - there are so many different things that are offered, you're bound to like something.
