patio - aloha on the ganges

we had an amazing experience with the patio - aloha on the ganges. food were delicious and staff was super courteous. live performance by an artist was equally mesmerising. they offer costal food for eachplacethat is being covered by maa ganges. we were hosted by kanika. me and my wife were in awe seeing her behaviour and support throughout. she ensured we did not order crazily at the same time she made sure we take enough. we ordered mustard paneer tikka, choola food from himalayan, gajar ka halwa. it was original in taste and best part is such quality food at reasonable price. a pocket friendly restaurant with 100% quality. once again sincere thanks to kanika and others for such gesture.

just by the ganga ghat.. this restaurant provides a beautiful view
the food is delicious ..
we tried their special himalayan combo it was divine
also ordered their special combo of n-2 paratha .. it was really good

it is a naiceplaceto relax and enjoy delicious food with the view !

a day spent in the lap of nature at ‘aloha on the ganges‘ rishikesh. a b’fulplaceto be in natural surroundings, lush green grass, mountains 🏔 n greenery all around with fresh air which destresses the mind n body.
the lunch experience was pure food coma - and that too all veg!
from ‘go with the flow’ menu, we started with mojito, pahadi lemon 🍋 coriander soup 🍜 for rs 300/- the clear soup was very refreshing with lots of herbs in it.
from the large variety of starters ‘grills by the ganges’, we chose bhutte mattar ki seekh for rs 450/- , smoked bhuna mushroom 🍄 for rs 450/- with a strong aroma of mustard oil n herbs & palak chana tiki, a soft cheesy, non oily dish which melted in mouth instantly.
from ‘the floating market ‘we tried burmese khowsuey for rs 500/-, one of our favorites, a creamy preparation cooked in coconut 🥥 curry.
pink penne for rs 500/- from ‘penne for your thoughts’ was the kids favorite, while the elders loved the homely flavors of harsil ka no 1 rajma for rs 450/-. from ‘ganga kinare plated mains’ patna express parantha for rs 500/- was a unique preparation of parantha layered with bhuna masala sattu.
from the ‘last course‘ we had aloha special ice cream sundae for rs200/-.
a big shout out to mr.ankit rawat, who showered us with personal attention and care with a smile; and chef manoj who explained the dishes to us and sweetened our visit even more by sending complimentary desserts. this is a must visitplace- not only for the large variety of mouth watering dishes, but also for their unparalleled hospitality!

fantasticplacefor a cozy riverside dinner. the sound of flowing water coupled with some wonderful live music makes for a lovely dining experience.

i found the food to be some of the best in rishikesh. the guava salad was an absolute delight and the khowsuey was rich and creamy. the garhwali thali, with its unique traditional preparations, is an absolute must-try! the nh2 paratha was fantastic too.

the very courteous and considerate staff made our experience even better. very very happy with the service. we had a great time!

superplaceto have meals . the view is breathtaking and the food very flavourful . whenever i go there would definitely have a meal . the menu is assorted and staff extremely helpful

had heard about thisplacea lot so went with great expectations. for the views and location i would give 10/10, as for the restaurant ambience, it's pretty decent. talking about the food now, very limited menu, the taste of the food is very average but the price on the menu is highly overrated. so i would recommend thisplaceonly if you want to enjoy some coffee and snacks with a good view.

the patio restaurant is a definite go-toplacefor anyone who enjoys good food, super landscapes, peaceful serene surroundings along with warm and courteous staff.

ambience: the restaurant is a patio restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating. the cane lampshades along with the green plants and the yellow napkins - add warmth to the interiors. i would give it 4/5.

food: the menu is interesting mix of dishes from various states of india. this is indeed a refreshing change from most menus.
drinks: the smoked chaatch is a must try. i would give it 5/5.
appetisers: the dahe ke kebab, paniyaram, chilly paneer were all exceptional
main course: the palak parathas with dal, biryani, burger, sandwich, pizza- all were exceptional.

a must visitplacewhen you are in rishikesh !

we went there for a family dinner, this is one of the best fine dining restaurant. everything thing was perfect - view,service,food! we ordered paneer tikka in starter - it was very fresh and well cooked.
in main course we ordered rajma chawla and daal makhni with palak and mirchi parantha. both of the dishes tasted were delicious. even there white butter was very fresh and nice.
in desert we ordered moong dal halwa and gulab jamun. both were awesome.
food quality and taste was too good.

they had live music too which was icing on the cake !


bill for 4 people was around 2700.

we stayed at theplacewhile visiting rishikesh and this was theplacewhere we had our dinners. 
theplaceis beautiful, nestled within the shivalik hills. the breathtaking mountains and flowing ganges provide a sense of serenity. 

ambiance of the location is incomparable. and theplaceis perfect for a romantic getaway and candle lit dinner with live singing :-). an experience that will be remembered for a long time. 

pricing wise - the price is on the higher side for the dishes and the quantity. but given theplaceand services offered the pricing is kind of justified.

the dishes at theplaceare named after the places that ganges visits/ flows through and the menu comprises of the famous dishes from each of theplacerespectively.  
coming to the food part: 
soups: 
1. tomato soup: did not leave an impression. seemed a little uncooked to me. the best part were the cut garlic kind of raw that came into the mouth that would lend the much needed flavor to the soup. can be definitely missed. i will rate is as a 2/5
2. lemon coriander: i have had much much better versions of this soup. the lemon had been added so much that the soup had become bitter and i could not taste the coriander that this soup is known for. it was only lemon. the cabbage added was fibrous and not edible. this soup too i would rate it as 2/5

main course: 
margarita pizza: safe play. this was thin crust pizza. very tasty perfectly cooked with generous amount of cheese. i rate it as 4/5

garhwali platter: this comprised of dal, rice, pyaaz tamatar ki sabzi, alloo ki sabzi, chutney 1 with salt, jeera, hari mirch and chutney 2 with salt, and red colored (dont know the exact ingredients). 
dal and rice were very tasty, the pyaaz-tamatar sabzi lip smacking. the two chutneys with generous amount of salts lended extra flavour to the entire dish. 
this dish is a must have. 

hirsal platter that comprised of rajma and chawal: 
the chillis served with the rajma and rice were amazing. the rajma was average. 

ghat ki aloo sabzi: this was standard fare where tamatar ke shorbe ka aloo was served with puri, with hari chutney and tamatar ki meethi chutney. this dish was again average. 

overall theplaceis a must visit for experiencing the ambiance.

we took a stroll to theplaceand it got us hook to the view. the ambience along with the music makes it very perfect for romantic dates. for food chef manish and server informed that the theme of restaurant is to serve the true food of himalayan village. we toon 2 platings and both were perfect. himalya ke chulhe se is nice dish, the details are so raw that the rice is made in pressure cooker and is sticky as same prepared in himalayan village. the next dish nh7 parantha was pure bliss with a sumptuous dal makhni and white butter. over and all i would recommend you to visit theplace, very courteous staff too..:)

been a few times , once at day time and other times at night, beautifulplaceto be besides ganges take in all the fresh air outdoors or sit inside with a unique ambience and interiors , awsome different menu , but would like some more options in the indian cuisine just lacking in that , otherwise a must go place.

amazing food and variety . the menu has newness and is retreat to eyes. if you want to experiment with new things this is theplaceand trust me they will never disappoint you . awesome food . kudos to the team working behind it.

niceplacewith a wide variety of food, situated right on the banks of river ganges. they also have live music in the evening. slightly expensive but the experience and quality of food makes up for it
