Each of these five restaurants brings something different to Patna's dining scene, from home-style thalis to themed barbecue dining.

Persona, Patliputra Colony, Patna
Persona is the kind of restaurant you'd take your parents to for a celebratory dinner, especially if they enjoy Continental, Chinese, Italian or North Indian food. The space is well-lit and plant-filled, which gives it a relaxed, memorable quality that suits a slower, more meaningful evening rather than a quick meal. The menu leans toward comfort dishes done well rather than anything overly experimental.

Must-haves: Malai Broccoli, Mutton Galauti Kebab, Crispy Prawns, Chicken Wings, Deep Fish Fajita Fire Pizza, Khaas Biryani, Thai Curry

Its menu of Bati + Churma, Khichda, Lahsun Chutney, Mirchi ke Tapore and Gatta stays entirely within Rajasthani vegetarian cooking, and at 4.6★, it's also the highest-rated restaurant on this entire list, at ₹1,400 for two.
Where Can You Find the Best Biryani in Patna?

What Does a Meal at These Patna Restaurants Cost?
Cost for two across this list ranges from ₹800 at The Sum Of Us to ₹1,800 at Pirates Of Grill. Afraa and Persona both sit at ₹1,200 for two, Ghoomar Traditional Thali is ₹1,400 for two, and the spread overall means Patna's top restaurants cover a genuinely wide budget range rather than clustering around one price point.
