Gordhan Thal Restaurant

You can find us right on Jetalpur Road in Alkapuri. We are actually located underneath the Chocolate Room, which is a good landmark if you’re looking for the building. The Alkapuri petrol pump is also very close by, so that helps people find us in the middle of all the traffic. Vadodara gets quite hot in the afternoons, and this spot stays a bit cooler being where it is. We’ve got our routine down, starting early to get things prepped before the lunch rush starts. It’s a lively neighborhood and there’s always something happening outside on Jetalpur Road. The restaurant is a simple space. We don’t have big signs or anything too flashy. Most of our customers come because they live nearby or work in the shops around Alkapuri. It’s nice seeing people come in after a long day. We just focus on getting the food out on time. Sometimes it’s quiet, other times it’s a bit of a scramble to get everyone seated. We don’t really worry about making everything look perfect like those big chains. It’s more about the actual work of running a restaurant. People know where we are and what we do. If you’re walking past the petrol pump, you’ll see our entrance. We’re just a local business trying to do things right every day for the folks in Vadodara.
