The Story

Not just a dhaba.
A destination.

Thirty kilometres past Khurda on the road to Berhampur, a lit-up pagoda rises out of the night. Travellers pull over for a selfie — and stay for the crab masala. Royal Dhaba pairs highway-side warmth with a resort-scale campus: a stone waterfall staircase, a lotus fountain glowing over the lawns, garden pavilions, private dining cottages — even an EV charging station.

Very well decorated with all types of facilities. If you are travelling from Bhubaneswar to Berhampur, you will find this restaurant 30 kms after Khurda.
