One of the best places for traditional Nepali food is this impressive place at Dwarika’s hotel. The atmosphere is superb and the organic food gets consistent praise from diners. Set meals range from six courses to the blowout 22-course option (US$80). Reservations required. The hotel's Friday barbecue buffet (US$32) is also popular.
