Udaipur Marriott Hotel has unveiled Ayana, its newest rooftop dining destination overlooking the city’s lakes and the Aravalli Hills. The restaurant, which means “the path,” offers guests a journey through India’s royal culinary heritage, enriched with contemporary flair and scenic ambience.
Ecstatic about the launch, Executive Chef Mohit Mishra said, “We are thrilled to officially welcome guests to Ayana. Our vision was to create more than just a restaurant; we wanted to craft a journey where each dish tells a story, each flavour evokes tradition, and every detail, from preparation to presentation, reflects the depth of India’s rich culinary heritage. It’s about delivering authenticity with finesse and giving our guests an experience they will remember long after they leave.”
Adding on to this, Vaibhav Sagar, General Manager, commented, “Ayana is designed to be an immersive experience, not just a dining venue. From the sweeping rooftop views to the thoughtfully curated menu and serene yet vibrant ambience, every element has been meticulously crafted to create lasting memories. Whether for travellers discovering Udaipur or locals seeking a refined night out, Ayana offers moments that stay with you.”
Drawing inspiration from the Northwest Frontier and Rajasthan’s regal kitchens, Ayana’s menu features dishes such as Haleem, Shikampuri Kebabs, Biryani, and Laal Maas, prepared with traditional techniques and refined presentation. The bar complements the menu with artisanal cocktails infused with Indian botanicals and regional flavours.
Designed for intimate dinners or celebratory gatherings, Ayana combines contemporary Indian aesthetics with sustainability, using locally sourced produce, energy-efficient operations, and minimal waste practices. |
