The Grand is one of the most famous and sort-out veg restaurant in Puri. It is located infront of the "Singha Dwara" of "Lord Jagannath Temple". Just standing in the balcony of this restaurant, you can get a picturesque view of the temple. Dining arrangement is also available on the balcony where you can eat while enjoying the view of the " Bada Danda".
Ambience is traditional and is meant to promote the Odiya culture. Very neat and clean area with proper washroom facilities.
Staffs are well uniformed by wearing traditional dress like a green kurta with a trouser. However the service is a bit slow. We had to wait 10-15 minutes just to give our order. But the food was prepared quite fast.
Me and my family came here to have our dinner. We tried "A Grand Special Thali", Mix veg, tandoori roti, Dal fry and Cream of tomato soup.
Thali is a must try. It consisted of Naan, plain rice, pulao, dal fry, sambar, besar, shahi paneer, chilly mushroom, vegetable fries, papad, dahi pacheri and gulab jamun. Taste was mind blowing. Everything was so well prepared. All the dishes were made with utmost care. Neither too oily nor too spicy.
So when you visit Puri, just give this place a try.
The grand is a grand eatery located just opposite to Jagannath Mandir, Puri.
Their cuisine is awesome.
Wide options (breakfast, snacks, lunch & dinner) air-conditioned, non a/c & terrace seating is available.
Mostly crowded. The best part you can have a momentous view of Sri Jagannath Mandir, from their terrace.
The prices are bit high yet it's worth for their quality, service & location.
One need to climb minimum 45 steps to reach this place.
The place is close to the Lion Gate, Jagannath Temple and they provide really good vegetarian options. Their open air restaurant extension has a panoramic view of the temple complex which is photogenic in its own right. They have AC as well as non AC sitting places too.
