For all the vegetarian people, this is the place in Guwahati where you can get mouth watering food at a reasonable price with the tarka of best service from the Gopal Maharaj Team on floor. But please, don't be absurd to go alone & float in the taste, it's a family place.
My recommendation: Dry Fry (as a part of Main Course) & Paneer Tikka (for Starters)
One of my favourite place. Quality of food is excellent. Service is wonderful, homely environment and above all the owner of the restaurant is Suresh Baiya is a my dear person.
Whenever I m in GM, I m not at all worried about the quality of food I m having because they serve the best of it and 100 percent fresh as well... and above all I am mad about the taste of all the items they serve..
Without a doubt, one of the best restaurants in Guwahati city.. mouthwatering food..
I moving in North East, no one as like gopal Maharaj, at fancy Bazar, guy, I like food and also
Awsum food my favourite place ..........
Vegetarian people will love the food. Hospitality and food, a rare combination.
My Most Favourite Restaurant.... Each and Every thing is Yummilicious ... Specially I Love Paneer Tikka ... ��
I think no other resturants can beat GM, be its food quality or taste. I Simply love eating out there
Good restuarant for vegetarians.. must try.. services are also good..
The best wat i feel just love it everything is wonderful out dere
BEST HOTEL
FAST SERVICE AMD TASTY
WELL MANNERED MANAGER...
I love the dishes there😍😍. It's yummy. Ambience is so so but food are really awesome. I love shahi paneer & GM special veg pulao there. It's a veg restaurant. Alcohol doesn't serve there. They have their own sweets stalls there. Must try gulam jamun there, it's recommendable.
Well maintained and best quality of vegetarian foods , each staff having a good communication skills. They all are respective. I highly recommended you guys visit once this place.
Thank you.
Food- 4/5

Simply awesome food to enjoy with friends and family. Try out their gulab jamuns, they are the best. Best place to enjoy with friends and family.
One of the oldest in the area. Mostly has waiting during lunch time due to being situated in the market. Good food. Ok ambience. The onion bhuji is really good. Fast service. Not very pricey.
The best place for dining with family which is located near the main market. We always visit there mostly on Sunday with my family and the food is just awesome especially its dal tadka, paneer bhuji and other cuisines too
A good place for vegetarians to go and the food they serve is also tasty. I am a big fan of potatoes and I ordered butter naan , dum aloo and daal. The food was up to the mark. The dum allo was damn tasty.
Good place near paltan bazaar. But it was quite crowded ahet we were there . But taste was quite authentic. The captain was kind to support us. Recommended!
One of the best experience for veg items and pocket friendly. The staff members are also very helpful. And a very good place in between the shopping street -fancy bazaar.
When you need an all veg restaurant in Guwahati... GM is really a good place for that! We had ordered a baby corn chilly for starter which serves 3 with decent taste. Main course was really good and tasty with a couple of butter and garlic naans with methi malai mutter and a lime soda. I would definitely recommend this place for those looking for an all veg restaurant near MG road in Guwahati.
This is the one of the best veg restaurants I have visited. Indeed the best. The ambience is pretty and service is very prompt. Coming to the food . The food tastes superb . It is scrumptious. A must visit. Looking forward to more visits.
For starters i ordered lemon soda and baby corn
lemon soda was very disappointing. It tasted like soda.
Then had babycorn, which turned out to be good.
Tried daal, butter naan and chilly panner.
Well i Must say it was a good experience, do try up once. Food and service is fast and good.
Good food although won't say it's the best you'd find... They serve good cheese naans though... The quantity of food (main course) they serve is a little less I would say compared to other places... Vegetarians can go and have their food there, there aren't many better options available...
I have visited this place over a number of times with friends and family alike... The great thing is the awesome vegetarian food... GM over the years has stood rock solid with its food quality reputation... Also, I would like to especially mention about the paneer which always is fresh and soft... A must visit place... Great one for food lovers :) :) :)
best hotel in guwahati only one you can make two branches briilant food paneer tandoori roti tadka dal onion bhuji very very brillant serive

Recommend for family outings, home-cooked flavors
Their yellow dal is out of the world. Rest other dishes are also good and always taste fresh. Must visit if craving for good home cooked meal. Also good place to go out with the family.
The service is quick and all staff is courteous and the best part is no matter how much food you order they don't write down and still get it right.
Interiors need to be updated.
Pure Veg Restaurant that serves awesome food.Must visit specially if you are a northie and seeking for good spicy food.I have visited them 4-5 times and never got disappointed.
Went for a birthday party. After a long time had tasty food here. We ordered Malai paneer tikka, malai kofta, kadhai paneer. Tikka was good choice was and delicious. Laccha paratha was also. Overall satisfied with service and food. food worth every buck.
Soo delicious food..everything is like u cannot say or point out a particular dish.. the service was the fastest i saw on any restaurant before too fast..the staffs are trained and well mannered..also the ambience is quite good..
4.5 for the service. The fastest you can ever expect. A must try for all the veggies staying around Guwahati. A delight to mind and soul if u r planning to try for some good North Indian cuisine.

Good food. It was tasty and well cooked. Corn delight starter was really nice. Paneer tikka could have been spicier. Other dishes were good. For vegetarians, GM is a sure delight !!
Have been dining there since 10 years and it has never disappointed any taste bud. The food is amazing , a must visit restaurant in Guwahati
All the vegetarians out there.. Must must try this place n even the non veg peeps who are fond of good spicy food must visit this place.. The plain dal served here itself speaks it's heritage. The masala's used here are so raw n perfectly cooked. Visited last weekend the restaurant was full yet people were waiting outside (demand exceeds this level). Chilly paneer served was so perfectly cooked n it tasted awesome.. Starters pander tikka was up-to d mark n the quality of butter nan is also very satisfying. Must try! 👌
Good place for North Indian cuisine.
Paneer tikka, paneer butter masal and cheese naan n masala kulcha are tasty. At the end don't forget to try Hot gulab jamun in dessert!
If you are looking for delicious North Indian food then must check out the place. Service and other things are kinda okay
Gopal Maharaj a well know name in fancy mkt for lunch during mkt visit.
We ordered panner Tikka n chilly corn as being ordered Jain food was good.
Ordered kulcha n panner butter masala n mix vegetable was gud
Lastly gulab jamun was as sweet as expected.
Old place and most famous too good food and best place for veg dishes too yummy good service quality and quantity is highly maintained good staff
One of the oldest and Guwahati's most loved marwari dhaba style restaurant is still maintaining the same quality, which is very satisfying. On sundays and holidays, be sure to reach early as they don't have empty tables! Service is very fast and most of the times, the waiters recognise their customers and bring their regularly ordered items. Papd bhurji and pyaz bhurji being the most common ones! Awesome.
Very nice and clean veg restaurant with super tasty foods...also try their extremely soft butter naans. Just a little hard to identify..and parking is a major issue. Otherwise a wonderful family restaurant
Can't have BETTER dal and panner in INDIA
Fresh
Quick SERVICE
Love to have regular dinner at GM
I have been coming here since decade
Here its guarantee that we will get everything fresh .
just go for the food....if u r very hungry and need quick n yummy meal then go to gm...this place has been kicking since the last 50 years or so....its d best place for a hearty wholesome fingerlickin food.
While travelling through the city, the driver recommended this place as we were looking for good veg food. Located inside a lane in fancy bazaar, this restaurant is dimly lit with two levels of seating. Seating includes tables, chairs, and sofas.
Coming to the menu, they serve north indian food.
Since we didnt feel like ordering starters, we directly ordered main course. There were several varieties of paneer curries, so we decided to try something different so we ordered paneer bemisaal curry. This curry had paneer stuffed with dry fruits in a spicy tomato gravy. It was decent. We also ordered daal makhani. It was really tasty with good amount of butter and rich gravy. In breads we ordered pudina paratha, tandoori roti, kulcha, chapathi. All were prepared well. For dessert, we had gulab jamun. The gulab jamun was big with khova inside. Rates are reasonable. Worth a try for vegetarians.
This place still has some of his old charm left. Basically, if you are looking for simple food, like Dal, Roti, etc this is an option. Though, you'll find variety of options but my favorite has always been Dal Tadka. Pure vegetarian restaurant, perfect for families & small get together.
I wouldn't pay bucks to have vegetarian food, but this place sure changed the way I looked at vegetables. That missi roti was out of this world and I can't even describe the tenderness of those malai koftas, and that yum paneer bhurji. Sigh. Also the cheese naans are unmissable if you drop in this place. Tables are hard to get, even on a weekday. So be ready to wait in lines. The service is super quick and super good. Worth every penny.
No other place gives me more satisfaction then this one !!
GM has become a habbit now.
Warning :Weight Watchers Pl stay away. The dollops of butter will scare you like hell :p
in my opinion,it serves the freshest food in town.
I am a hardcore non veg foodie . But if you haven't tried paneer bhurji, malai kofta, aloo dum, paneer tiranga , nun , rotis.then you are missing out on this veggie delight.
Gopal Maharaj is one of the nicest vegetarian restaurants in Guwahati. What impresses me the most is the fact that this restaurant has kept it simple and authentic since the first time I visited this place around 20 years back. They serve tasty / quality food without any pretence.
Food 4/5
My all time favourites are the Shahi paneer and yellow Tadka daal. The naans are soft and tasty. I have never tasted their rice (somehow for me nothing in the menu seems to compliment rice; but that's just me).
Service 3/5
Reasonably fast; but during lunch time there is a slag. You get a feel of the subtle fan following this place has when you walk in during lunch hours.
Ambiance 3/5
Pretty clean. Nothing to complain and nothing to gross you out.
Parking is a problem, even for two-wheelers. A must visit for even hardcore meat-eaters.
Well I was told that this place is so good that you need to wait outside to get your turn, well luckily I found a seat quite easily. To start with I am not a big fan of just vegetarian food, but here you can find variety of everything. Which is rare in vegetarian cuisine. The food was okay but service was not good, people must respect their fellow customers who come by. The amount they charge too is very high. Keeping everything aside the food won't disappoint you. And that's what matters, the "taste".
When you write a review after visiting the restaurant twice; you must be pretty sure that is detailed and we'll analysed. Let's begin
Twice I visited at peak hours and I was well welcomed not by the management but the waiters. I was really awed by such a gesture with which they treated. In this era of commercialisation , such hospitality is nothing but your trump card in bringing back guests over and over again. Not much variety for starters but the crispy baby corn is a must try. The dal fry is much better than the dal makhani. I would also recommend their bombay aaloo for those love tangy food. So all in all
Ambience : 3 star
Food : 4 star
Service : 5 star ( I loved it to my core)
Price : 4 star
Must go for a veg meal some day
One of the very old and good vegetarian eateries in Fancy Bazar area. They serve decent food at pocket friendly prices. The menu is not extensive and has been the same since they began. All their dishes have good flavors and GM has maintained their standards over time. They sell some really fresh khoya if you prefer home made sweets. The ambiance is average and they can do a better job with some more lighting in the restaurant.
Though its location is not very apt, yet it's a nice family restaurant with an attractive ambience and even more attractive food which tastes as good as it looks. The waiters are good and the service is quite fast.
The food here is very good. The service at the restaurant is also fast. The food here never fails to please you. The ambience is pretty good. As it is a very popular place one might have to wait for long on special days.
Fast Service. Good Food. This place will never fail to delight your tastebuds. 😊
You won't find this place empty anyday. It's always crowded and people definitely love the food and it is a great delight for all vegetarians.

Gopal Maharaj is one of those very few Veg Restaurants which actually offers mouth watering Vegetarian Dishes. Although I'm a strict Non-Veg lover, I would happily make an exception for the food of this place. Located in a very busy market of Fancy Bazar, this place is spacious from the inside. This place only offers Veg delicacies. On my maiden visit, I ordered one Aloo Paratha, One Paneer Paratha, and Two Masala Kulchas along with Paneer Butter Masala. All the items were served in 10-15 minutes. The parathas were nicely fried over desi ghee I guess. The Kulchas were ordinary and the "Masala" part was just mashed potatoes with red-chilli powder. The real deal was the Paneer Butter Masala, which was neatly prepared in a JAIN like NO ONION fashion. The gravy had a unique blend of aromatic spices, which gave it an unconditional taste. At last but not the least, this place offers the food at reasonable prices. I personally feel that if you have a slightest disbelief towards how good a vegetarian dish could be, then you must definitely visit "Gopal Maharaj".
*Cheers*
A perfect place for veg food...the cheese naan along with shahi paneer and GM special pulao were quite commendable...the service is quick...highly recommended...Soumi Sarkar
Have been visiting this place for years now. Not a very hygienic place, but in india lesser the place is hygienic, more the food is yummy. Waiters are old, in dirty uniforms, are fast, ready to take your order as soon as you get a seat. I would recommend not to visit this place on sundays for dinner . minimum wait time is 40 minutes on Sunday. Order tadka yellow dal, mix it with onion bhurji, it is the specialty. You can order paneer bhurji, malai kota, pindi chole, naan, and do order veg pulao.
Awesome...... I am a non-veg lover.... but GM didn't disappointed me at all.... Their paneer butter masala is awesome..... no comparison with other restaurants at all..... beautiful interior..... helpfull staffsss..... I'll surely visit their again to taste their other foods....
Unarguably, the best north indian food in the town. The preparations have a dhaba type feel. Paneer bhurji, dal tadka, malai kofta, paneer tikka and gulab jamun are must try's. And do order papad bhurji and pyaaz bhurji for the starters.
Being a full throttle non veg person..it was wonderful experience...good food.i went at the insistence of my freinds to this place ..nd boy I was not disappointed..we had malai kofta ..some paneer nd nans nd kulcha..service was quick which compensates for not so accessible location .
Food cooked in yummy & home styled manner-this deserves to be the tag line of this place. This restaurant serves great jeera aloo,roti & rasgullas at a reasonable price.

Comfort food at its best is how I would label this place as. If there's ever a place I go to when I'm badly missing home and craving something reminiscent of Noida in Assam, this is where I head to. Lip-smacking vegetarian food that will only let you come up for air once you've picked and polished everything off your plates!
Albeit the location is a bit confusing, especially for people not familiar with it. Located in Fancy Bazaar, facing the majestic Brahmaputra, GM looks pretty tiny from the outside for the accolades it receives!
Mind you, booking is recommended for this place as its always buzzing with people (mostly families) and you have to wait a while. If you're unlucky enough to reach after 3 for lunch, you will definitely be robbed of your opportunity of glorious North Indian delicacies.
The serving time is quite alright and the food always arrives on time. Their Dal fry, Aloo Dum, Raita, Paneer Sabzis are all amazing. They have oodles of ghee and they're just so heavy! Your stomach will ache by the end of your gastronomic stop here, but it will be all worth it!
Plus, the waiters are extremely attentive and despite the rush they (always) seem to face, polite and helpful.
I've even tried their Kashmiri naan - a pleasant surprise definitely! If ever there's something wrong with your order, they're always eager to alter or fix it.
I love, love, LOVE this place! Especially their Dal Fry - ashgjhdgdudjshysgrterr!! It's the bomb man! Their quantity and service is top-class. Pricey yes, but once you bite into their food - you're in love with them. And from then onwards, you become hooked. :)
Hope you enjoy GM as much as I did!
P.S.: Don't forget to end your fabulous meal with their hot and melt-in-the-mouth Gulab Jamuns!
Have been coming to this place so many times and haven't yet written a review is kind of injustice to this place.
Its definitely the most iconic vegetarian restaurants in Guwahati and one should not give it a miss.
Bustling with people and enjoying their meals give it a wonderful experience altogether.
Service is great. Food is to die for and yes right across the street is the mighty brahmaputra flowing.
Love to come back again and again
Highly recommended - paneer bhurjee and laacha paranthas.
The food this place serves is certainly one of the best you can get in ghy.From starters to desert everything is just awesome.I have been there a hundered times but the craving for it is still the same.
I've been here when I was visiting guwahati. It's a nice place with nice ambience and good food and okay services. If you are looking for a vegetarian meal, followed by a walk near the Brahmaputra river, this is the place to be!
I have been here since my childhood. The quality of food is always at its best even though I personally feel the olden times were better. But still this is one of the best vegetarian outlets which serves hot and delicious food with fast service and very reasonable price. One must try paneer sheek kabab.paneer pasanda.dal fry.masala kulcha.GM special veg pulau. The dal fry is arguably the best.
Undoubtedly the best Indian food u can ever have...nd m nt tlkng just abt Ghy

A great place to be on a winter or a rainy evening. The place serves hot and tasty food.
U shud ask for the papad and pyaz bhuji. The starters are good but the lassi was a disappointment. The kadai panner, malia kofta, yellow dal is just too good.
the roti's are also hot and soft. the food is a little heavy on the stomach.
But nevertheless a great place for some good indian food at affordable rates.
Used to visit it when I was a kid, now I've grown up and I continue to visit this place! Have seen them expanding it, though it can't beat the crowd.
Couldn't have been more awesome.
A quintessential favorite of mine. Among the spiciest, tastiest nd most value for money north Indian outlet. Its house speciality is Paneer Bhurji, Yellow Dal fry and GM special Pilaf! Unmatched taste. There have been some new faces in the staffers, which has made some of behaviour issues I had go down. The food has gotten consistent again in the past few months!
Good place for foodies....ignore everything else ans focus on the food...
This is the first time i am reviewing a veg outlet as I am a pure non vegetarian. On a sunday afternoon, me and my friend was thinking of eating something different so as suggested by my friend, we decided to check this place out located in the fancy bazar. It was full crowded and we had to wait for almost 20 mins to get a place. It was housefull so it had a good impact on my psyche. finally we found a place to sit and ordered the following-
Alu Pyaj, Paneer pasanda, dal makhani, laccha paratha and kulcha. The quantity was quite good for 2. The food was tasty and delicious. Service was fast. Also ordered rasgullas at the end in desserts. Overall experience was good and its perhaps one of the best and oldest veg outlet in the city. Must check for shakaharis but not so sure for manksaharis (pun intended) !!!
Price was reasonable !!!
I believe this place is one of the best restra in fancy bazaar !! I have been visiting this place since childhood, and one of the common food which i order everytime is paneer butter masala and butter naan... This is the place i chose for my up coming birthday. This place basically doesnt be's packed but on festival people wait in que's. I didnt take a snap because i had less things to display. I visit this place frequently, next time i go there i will display something good. Anyways if u visit this place then dont forget the naan's, even if u are not a naan lover u are gonna love it. Prices are affordable, i mean pocket friendly.
Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very good

GM is one of the oldest restaurants in Fancy Bazaar area serving authentic & fresh vegetarian fare. I have been going there from time immemorial as both my parents, who are converted-veggies, prefer this restaurant over the other veggie outlets.
But for a newbie foodie to search this place would be quite a task. I would advise you to take the directions from the local people when you reach Fancy Bazaar. If you know Madhukunj Sweets, half your task is done, as it lies in the adjacent bylane. On seeing its location you may wonder that who will prefer to come to this place for a nice meal & i wont disagree as the surrounding is very dusty and dirty owing to the nearby wholesale food market.But all will be forgiven when you enter the place as it nicely blocks all the shabbiness outside & during lunch & dinner time it is almost always packed. Also they have undertaken a recent makeover making the place a bit more trendy for families.I have one complain here though & that is regarding the parking place which is next to nothing & you may have a tough time finding a place for your vehicle.
I must say i am quite a fan of their Paneer. It is one of the freshest you will find in entire Guwahati ( they make it in their restaurant itself ). People who know this place, come from faraway places of this city just to take their Paneer.Even at our home when mom plans to make any Paneer dish, the Paneer inevitably is from here. I even know some people in West Bengal, who when they come to visit Guwahati, make this restaurant a must-visit place. I would without any hesitation recommend their Paneer delicacies, be it Paneer Masala ( their specialty ), Paneer Butter Masala, Shahi Paneer or Kadhai Paneer. They all are equally luscious. To accompany it you can order their Butter Tandoori Roti or if you prefer rice, you can order their special Pulao. Among the starters their Malai Paneer Tikka & Crispy Baby Corn are also very good.
The service is quite fast, though if it is packed it may take some time to process your order. The waiters are decent & if you are in a confusion, you can take their advise.
Earlier their prices used to be one of the lowest among the veggie outlets. But after the recent makeover, they have increased the prices quite a bit which maybe a dampener for some people.But if you are a Paneer-Fan-Foodie & haven't visited this place, you owe it to your stomach. ;-p
The restaurant serves excellent indian cuisine. With the best ambiance. We are on the trip of Shillong-Meghalaya, and this was one of the best ever restaurant visited . Thank you so much and must visit …
Amazing veg food... one of the best veg restaurants i have ever been to... paneer tikka a must try...
It was just excellent , we ordered Shahi Paneer Tikka , Veg kofta curry , Pudina Paratha , Missi Roti with pyaj butter and Masala Chaacha.The staff is also courtious and service is also quick.
It's paradise for veg lovers right in the center of guwahati. I was too busy eating to click photos of food 😜
Very very delicious food retorent aal staff behaviour is very good and polite and all menegmet is very good thank you gopal maharaj staff
GM is one of the oldest fine dining restaurant in the city but it has also lost its charm over ages. I remember having family dinner decades back and it used to be memorable one. I personally feel one should skip starters and go for the main course because the baby corn which i ordered was hard and difficult to chew on. This place serves the best naan and the butter paneer & dal makhani goes well as its everyone's favourite. The service was quick and our server Mr. Ramdhar was such gem of a person. The ambience was noisy and the items on the menu are value for money as compared to other places in town.
Food will never disappoint here.
+ pure veg
+ Indian prime veg dishes
+ decent family ambiance
+ classic taste
- except for Sundays, parking is a problem
Amazing food. Good pure veg restaurant in Guwahati. Courteous service. It is crowded so please be prepared to wait. Place is bit cramped but that is a small trade off for some good food
Best restaurant in the surrounding area. The ambience is nice along with the food. If you're in the area for the cruise or ropeway and looking for a proper meal, don't search elsewhere.
As a rare vegetarian eater, I can say that this place is quite good... Not pocket friendly, also not that too expensive... The ambience was quite nice and the food was tasty... Also I must mention that their service is nice... And on a good day you need to wait 5-25 mins .. The only con would be its parking and congestion since it is situated at the heart of fancy bazaar... But overall worth trying...
The food here is just awesome... No hotel can beat this in Guwahati especially Dal Makhani and Paneer Pasanda uffff ❤️
The perfect destination for vegetarians.
Located at a prime and busy location.
Gopal Maharaj is a culinary treasure! The best pure veg North Indian restaurant in town. Exceptional flavors, cozy ambiance, and friendly service. Don't miss out if you're a fan of North Indian cuisine. A must-visit!
Excellent food... Good service
Gopal Maharaj has always delighted us with the fantastic cuisine.
And the best part is how they make the same dish non spicy and spicy is amazing.
The new dishes of Chur Chur naan, hariyali paneer tikka and Shahi paneer tikka is superb.
Ofc for vegetarians this is a very good place, plus it is a family restaurant which keeps it crowded all the time. I had visited it many times, and the food is really good! The atmosphere it also cool
Need to xtend more dinning space...g
Food and service is much better
It's for all those vegetarians who wants to truly enjoy the food..... The general crowd is the upper and upper middle class .... Prices are reasonable considered to the quality....do order all the starters....
Nice restaurant...good ambience, food is good. The guy who served us was a great "sales guy" for the restaurant suggesting and pushing us to buy side dishes, drinks and desserts..... Overall a great experience and recommend to try once if you are in Guwahati
Food quality and taste is very good. Good staff and very polite nature. Neat and clean place. I would suggest to everyone to atleast visit once.
