The best restaurant ever!.. Soo tasty food and with very proper hygiene.. Remarkable place.. Just loved!.. Make sure to visit this place if incase you want to go for chinese and South Indian food... Very very very tasty..
It's an old age restaurant I've been going to this place since my childhood. They serve balanced south Indian food. Chowmien is good. I had mostly tried Rawa Dosa and Onion Uttapam. They have a variety of sweets as well. One can't refuse to have one.
The ambiance is ordinary but when one passes by the restaurant gets an amazing smell of food.
Keshari restaurant is by far the only place that can compete with Shahi restaurant which is another iconic place in Varanasi.
Taste is good . Quantities can be a little less for people with big appetite. But most importantly it is the best when it comes to cost effectiveness. Very pocket friendly .
The service is quick . The location is a bit crowded so one can be a little hesitant in visiting this place . But when the craving crawls in no one can help but visit this place .

Let me write the positives first, excellent vegetarian food, prompt service.. we had their signature kofta curry which was very nice.. paneer kadhai was very spicy but worth a try. I would give a 4.5 for the food.
Negatives are, ambiance (2 for that), Only cash payment and no sweet dish. And Location !
Tip- don't confuse it with Keshari ruchikar which is just around the corner. Also, the Google location is wrong. Google shows its location inside Mandir road, instead it's a bit more further towards gadaulia. Best is to ask a local.
Tried paneer lucknowi which was hot and spicy.... Veg fried rice was decent too... The quality of staff needs to be improved... They can have some local specialities in the menu which is currently missing...
A very decent eatery , closest to the Dashashwamedh Ghat. Snacks in the ground floor complete with thandai , kulfi , chaat and lassi. First floor houses the eatery. Veg Thalis available here are just too good. Great variety of daal , paneer , roti , paratha , rice. Courteous staff ensure you have a heartful. Highly recommended.
This is ny second visit to varanasi and also my second visit to kesari. The food is absolutely delicious. Being a hardcore non vegetarian, vegetarian food can seem boring but trust me when I say that this restaurant really knows how to cook good vegetarian food! Loved their thalis and their chaats and especially their boondi ka raita. Must visit for anyone who comes to varanasi! :)
The best place in Varanasi! Ordered the special thali and it was fantastic. It's very popular amongst the locals too and apparently they swear by the place. I won't be surprised if that's the case.
This is my childhood restro. If you want good south indian in banaras then you must try this place.
Their masala dosa is really awesome. And it take cares of your budget also.
This place is well known for its chole batoore...which is available from around 10:30 am....they serve 2 very large puris and a good amount of the chole....satisfied my expectation...i dont think one person can finish it...priced very reasonably....also serves many south indian breakfast dishes.Not a very classy restaurant but a neat sit out among the quiet streets of varanasi...
came here from Lonely Planet, and we were not disappointed! service was fast, place was full with locals and the food… oh my goodness it was delicious. the chole bhature exceeded expectations, as did the keshari dosa. the thali was great too, albeit nothing astounding. bear in mind portions are massive. great place!!!
I think it's the one of the best restaurant in gowdhulia road. Dishes are very delicious and the behavior of the delivery boys are very good. I love this place. Itis near to Kashi Biswanath 2no. Gate. First food and south Indian items are also very well prepared.
A nice restaurant that serves quality food in Varanasi town.
It's a famous and old restaurant. They serve a lot of south indian, chinese, continental, north indian dishes and Taste is great. Ambience is good.
Although the price is a bit more than other restaurants near by, the quality of the food and the cleanliness make up for it.
We went during lunch one day and ordered thalis. Good food, although service was a bit slow. For six thalis, it cost us 1800, slightly more expensive than I expected. But it was very filling. Ambience was a standard family restaurant, nothing great but decent.

We tried aloo Paratha and veg fried rice.
An add-on of curd to fried rice cost us 80 rs. Other than this, everything was fine.

Excellent food and cordial staff. Ambience was pretty much impressive.
Great quality food at good price.
Lots if options.
Location is good too
Very clean and calm place in morning hours. Service is very good and food is delicious but can be improved. In the midst of the temple area, this is the best restaurant I found. Unfortunately they don't serve the coffee in the morning at the time of breakfast. So far not tried the lunch at this place.
Overall it is always satisfactory visiting here, they serve lip smacking and delectable food items and have really wide options to explore and choose from.
Sometime you may find it really very crowdy but their service and staffs are really very generous and friendly, so they can instantly adjust and create some free space for you ❤️
You will never be disappointed with the taste and service here and that's why a lot of people have this as go-to option when they visit Dashashwamedh Ghat, the only problem which may arise is just the crowd and that too will be sorted within 5-10 minutes, so do visit here for sure and enjoy. ☺️
