Best Restaurants in Lhasa: where to eat in Lhasa? This question is not a concern if you visit Lhasa in the summer and autumn as most of the best tourist-oriented businesses would be open during these periods of the year. The concern is the winter when all the business would be closed for the slow industry and harsh winter. But we hope this post could still help travellers visiting in the busy season find the better choice to recommend the place to go for supper.

Tibetan Family kitchen:

Tibetan Family kitchen is the best restaurant in Lhasa. This small family-owned restaurant is one of my best choices. It is owned by two former tour guides, a friend of mine. The place is good for lunch and dinner for traditional Tibetan dishes. The restaurant is located in bustling tourist street near Barkhor street in the conventional building of Podrang Sapa.

If you would like to visit for dinner, especially for July, August, September, and October, I suggest getting an appointment with them.

The restaurant also houses a cooking class for travellers, for which they are most famous, and it is the only cooking class in Lhasa. In addition, the majority of the high-class travel agency (like us) also host a welcome dinner and farewell dinner at them, which make them super busy at times.

Kyichu Hotel Restaurant

Kyichu Hotel is one of the best Tibetan own hotels in Lhasa. We have known them for over seven years, and it is to them we place most of my VIP clients instead of five-star hotels in Lhasa. The Kyichu hotel restaurant is not busy almost all the time, and you will quickly get seating.

The restaurant serves the best Nepalese/ Indian food in town. It also has a large variety of local delicacies on its menu. The Kyichu hotel is the number one choice for returning visitor, how has been returning to Tibet for the last many years. They are the only restaurant.

They are the only restaurant with seating arrangements in the garden for a relaxing evening. As a result, the restaurant is my number one choice to take my family out for lunch.

The location of the Hotel is very convenient and walkable from Jokhang Temple.

Tashi Number 1

Tashi Number 1 is one of the oldest restaurants in Lhasa. They are trendy among the people how has been visiting Tibet many times. The restaurant is located in the prime location in Tengyal-ling road. My favourite is their Bobby with seasonal cream and vegetables. It is very convenient for any traveller staying in the Old City of the Tibetan quarter.
