Reviewed By Monalisa777 - Mumbai, India

Ordered a kashmiri pulao and were charged 525/- for it... very overpriced and regular Indian food. Please check price before ordering and also ask them for a description. Better local places around with non fancy names for 90% less cost and equally good quality food.

Reviewed By himanshujh - Kolkata (Calcutta), India

By seeing the interior looks like a rustic hill station cafe.
But the food and service does not match up to what it looks like.
This place is just good for coffee and cookies, which are really nice.
We ordered pizza momos Chinese salad all of which were very average. Not worth going

Reviewed By deepalidas2015 - Pune, India

If trouts are their USP then they should be made to perfection.
We ordered 2 different dishes of trout and both were deep fried with too much of oil floating aroundand of average taste.The chef didnt seem to care.Asked for garlic bread with it and looked and tasted nothing close to it.

Volga Restaurant

The finest multi-cuisine restaurant of Pahalgam. Also offering authentic Kashmiri Wazwan Preparations​.

Reviewed By Peripatetic_Farrukh - New Delhi, India

We had chicken curry and dal fry. Presentation was sub standard and taste was okayish. Ambience was ok. We went in off season, so may be the crew was asleep and not in the mood to serve.

Pahalgam has no dearth of vegetarian restaurants but Dana pani tops the list of the most popular ones
Food options were largely north indian, but fresh and wholesome..we thankfully carried a parcel of aloo paratha that came in handy the next day when we could not step out of our lodgings cos of bad weather

Had lunch once and dinner here during our Pahalgam trip on 12th & 13th May 2017.This restaurant located nearer to Main Market area of Pahalgam, near Taxi stand No.2. Food quality is good. Tried South Indian Varieties also. Price of food is high. You have to select the food & pay first. Good fast service.

Stone age lounge at Pahalgam hotel is a rustic underground lounge with loads of character and elegance. We were offered complimentary hi tea with yummy finger snacks. We loved the stone fire place and cane chairs with tables made of old Kashmir Windows. What makes this place stand out is its wrath and cozyness.

It feels so good to get a standard chain of restro in a far off place. Specially, if you are very fussy about veg food. Thanks sagar Ratna for making our Pahalgam trip comfort. Loved everything at Sagar Ratna. Must try the butter milk.
