La Galerie is a renowned multi-cuisine restaurant located in the upscale Hotel Centre Point in Shillong. It offers a luxurious dining experience with its Indian, Chinese, and Continental dishes available on an extensive à la carte menu. The restaurant has recently updated its menu to feature a wide range of international and local favorites. La Galerie is popular among both tourists and locals for its fine dining ambiance and diverse culinary offerings.
We walked into this place quite late for lunch not knowing what to expect. And then we found these on the menu (see photos) The place has an old Parisian feel. The decor and furniture match that vibe. It is located at Police Bazar junction in Shillong. The staff were well trained and courteous. We went back again for breakfast to this place the next day. It's slightly on the higher end compared to other places nearby but worth the price. The staff even change something if you don't find it ok.

We visited LA-GALERIE at Centre Point Hotel in Police Bazar, Shillong for an evening tea and snack. The milk tea, cappuccino, and veg pakora were delightful. The tables were beautifully decorated, clean, and the prime location offered a view of the bustling PB crowd. On another visit for dinner, the veg momo, mutton and fish thali, paneer sizzler, and desserts were delicious, but some first-choice items were unavailable. Despite the variety offered, the absence of preferred dishes affected our overall dining experience. Would like to mention about the service of the staff members who were welcoming and helpful. The food was delicious and we really enjoyed the atmosphere. We will definitely be back.

Located at the centre of the police bazaar. The landscape view of the bazaar from the hotel is beautiful. Interior of the hotel is quite classic and gives a royal vibes. Wooden furniture and natural flowers on dinning table adds to its aesthetic. However, foods are exorbitantly costly. Two peices of fish curry cost me Rs. 380, which one neither delicious nor that deserving. So,one may check the menu well before ordering. All the best!

Well decorated restaurant, in the heart of police bazar. Extremely well maintained nd polite staff but the food is quite average as per taste nd it’s price. Little miscommunication with order… we ordered 2 side dishes with single portion but they offered two nd didn’t even mention. So improvement needed.

One of the oldest restaurants in the police bazaar..it is in the center point hotel..the price is slightly on the higher side...but the food is good, the staff is courteous and the ambience is pretty okay..and i have not very often seen this place crowded...do pay a visit if you are nearby...a meal for two would cost around 1.5k

I always wondered how is their food would be.. will it be overpriced 🤔 BUT, their food is good & at a reasonable price with good portions. We had potato wedges in mozzarella cheese 😍 Mushroom fried rice with Kung Pao Chicken, that was good too & filling and wrapped up with TIRAMISU, that was okayish! Service was good & welcoming

City Hut Family Dhaba is a charming eatery located in the heart of Shillong, offering a traditional northern Indian menu in a casual setting. The restaurant prides itself on its authentic Indian flavors and warm ambiance, making it an ideal spot for families and friends to enjoy a peaceful dining experience. The establishment is dedicated to preserving the essence of Indian cuisine while providing a space for relaxation and familial bonding.
Best hotel in shillong police bazar with lot of parking space. Here you need to wait atleast 20-25mins to get the table. We tried their iconic badshahi chicken tandoori, mexican spice grilled chicken and penne el fredo chicken pasta, brownie with icecream. All the dishes tasted very well. Price is bit higher but it's definitely worth for the fine dine-in experience.

If you’re someone who appreciates a beautiful ambiance and unique decor, this restaurant will definitely catch your eye. The interior is a charming blend of rustic village aesthetics with life-sized figurines, flowing water features, bamboo decor, and colorful flower arrangements. Every corner seems thoughtfully designed to transport you to a peaceful countryside setting — a perfect place for photos and relaxed conversations. However, when it comes to the food, the experience doesn’t quite match the visuals. The dishes looked promising, but the taste was underwhelming. The flavors lacked depth, and some items felt either too bland or overly spiced without balance.

Place is nicely decorated. Nice atmosphere. But service is very poor. No care taken for guests by sufficient number of waiters. After a long wait and reminders food was served. Butter was missing from butter Naan and too much chilli in chicken. It started burning 🥵 inside. I had to take ice cream to cool my burning tongue 😛. Very bad experience on a very special day of my life.

City Hut Family Dhaba, Shillong – A Perfect Blend of Flavor, Warmth & Comfort City Hut Family Dhaba is hands down one of the most charming and satisfying dining spots in Shillong. Nestled near Ward’s Lake, this restaurant stands out not just for its extensive multi-cuisine menu, but for the cozy wooden interiors, warm lighting, and consistently prompt service that makes you feel welcome from the moment you walk in. Ambience & Seating: The interiors are tastefully done with a rustic wooden décor that offers a cozy cabin-like feel. Whether you're dining with family, friends, or just seeking a quiet corner for a hearty meal, the seating is spacious, well-maintained, and perfect for long conversations over good food. Service: The staff is courteous, attentive, and efficient. Orders are served timely, and they are happy to make recommendations based on your preferences. Special mention to the hospitality – it reflects a genuine effort to ensure customer satisfaction. Food Experience: The food here is the true highlight. The menu offers a diverse range from Indian, Chinese, and Continental to local favorites. Here’s what we tried and loved: Penne Alfredo: Rich, creamy and loaded with vegetables – the white sauce pasta was indulgent yet balanced, garnished with fresh spring onions. Waldorf Salad: Creamy and refreshing, with the perfect blend of apples, walnuts, cucumber, and pineapple, finished with a cherry on top. Veg Sizzler: Served on a bed of cabbage leaves, it had a smoky, tangy, and spicy profile with well-cooked baby corn, capsicum, and assorted vegetables. Hakka Noodles: Perfectly tossed, neither too oily nor bland, loaded with crunchy vegetables and topped with spring onions for freshness. Menu Variety: From the menu images, you can see that they offer a wide variety across: Seafood delicacies like Cantonese Prawns, Mustard Chilli Prawns, Fish in Garlic Sauce Pasta options like Penne Al Fredo, Fusilli in Tomato Sauce, Spaghetti in Pesto Sauce Desserts including Cheesecake, Tiramisu, Mousse, and Hot Gulab Jamun – you’ll be spoiled for choice. Their dessert display counter is quite inviting, with options like jar cheesecakes, mousse, and brownies clearly labeled and well-presented. Pricing: The prices are very reasonable considering the quality, portion size, and location. Most main course dishes range from ₹370 to ₹600, and desserts are fairly priced too. Cleanliness & Hygiene: The restaurant maintains high hygiene standards. The tables are well set, cutlery is clean, and the surroundings are spotless. Ideal For: Families looking for a hearty meal Tourists exploring Ward’s Lake or Police Bazar nearby Food lovers seeking quality multi-cuisine in a peaceful ambiance Final Verdict: City Hut Family Dhaba isn’t just a restaurant—it’s an experience. Whether you're a local or a tourist in Shillong, this place should be on your must-visit list. Consistent flavors, warm service, and a delightful ambiance make it a top-notch dining destination in the city. Highly recommended.

The food is so flavoured rich, I really loved it. It has a lovely ambience and service is really quick. Sometimes, it has a wait time, so it's better to reserve a table in advance (for a group). Food was really 10/10 , be it breads, indian cuisine or a dessert. Would love to visit again!!

Munchies Cafe in Shillong may not have the most upscale ambiance, but it makes up for it with its delectable offerings. From loaded cheesy and grilled burgers to wraps, sandwiches, and seasoned pasta, this pocket-friendly cafe caters to every visitor's preferences. Its open rooftop setting is a favorite hangout spot for youngsters. The Laitumkhrah outlet showcases a menu that blends local ingredients with global culinary trends.
One of the best cafe in shillong they don’t have much options in veg So we decided to try burger sandwich ice tea and hot chocolate spaghetti Total worth it
Anshu S — Google review
Was really in the mood for eating spaghetti so I thought I’d order it from Munchies as I’ve had couple of good experiences. But today, wasn’t that day. In the middle of eating my food, I found a dead fly. Wondering if the fly was cooked along with the food or just happened to fly and fall in my food. This just killed my appetite and gave me a really bad feeling. I’ve never experienced this ever before so this is just upsetting and disappointing. Ordered via Swiggy.

Munchies Shillong impressed us with their delicious Chicken Cheese Paratha, which lived up to its reputation. The Hot Chocolate and Masala Milk Tea were also delightful. However, the Flat Noodles with Bacon and Sausages fell short, as the white sauce was overwhelming. A cozy spot with some great hits and a few misses!

A very good place to have food with friends and family. Nice cafe, very good ambience, good sitting arrangement. Situated at the heart of Laitmukhrah, near Don Bosco Square. The cafe is just beside the road. The service is very good. Very friendly. The food is marvelous. The taste is fantastic. "It is finger licking good". Good quality and quantity. The menu is a little bit expensive. But the quantity and quality of the food is really worth it. Burger is the highlight here. I had Chicken Gourmat Noodles. It was soooo goooodddddd. They have UPI payment option. Parking space is also there.

Worst food I've ever tasted. I was really excited to try their famous burger but behold, there was no proper meat in my meat burger. The patty was like a mixture of 20% meat and some other fillers. I had spaghetti with meatballs- mediocre, and onion rings- horrible. Will never eat from here ever again.

Delhi Mistan Bhandar stands out among the sweet shops in Shillong for its focus on offering North Indian cuisine. This pure vegetarian restaurant provides limited but delicious options such as samosas, chole bhature, and Indian sweets. It caters to the demand for vegetarian restaurants in Shillong that serve North Indian food, making it a unique dining experience in the area.
I have a sweet tooth and from north India. For someone on visit to Shillong and looking for sweets, this shop is ok as there are hardly any sweet shops in Shillong. But if you are expecting the quality and standard of shop like any average sweet shop next door in north India then you will be sad. Quality of sweets, gol gappa etc is just average. However, besan laddoo and hot jalebi were above average.

I ordered Gulab jamun and after reaching home when I was eating it, it was yellowish in the middle and it had a taste of sourness. I didn't understand what went wrong but I did not expect this from this brand atleast. Very very disappointed, the price is high but the taste 🤢

I tried the chole bhature here, and while the taste was just okay, the overall experience wasn’t great. The sitting area is cramped and uncomfortable, and the cleanliness is seriously lacking. The hygiene levels didn’t feel up to the mark, which took away from the dining experience. Personally, I wouldn’t prefer going here again.

Delhi Mistanna Bhandar is conveniently located near Police Bazar. The interior is dated and lacks interest, but it maintains cleanliness. While the food items were tasty, the cost was surprisingly high. Unfortunately, the staff lacked attentiveness, and the service did not meet expectations. In summary, Delhi Mistanna Bhandar offers a convenient location and tasty food, but improvements in pricing, staff attentiveness, and service quality are needed for a more satisfying experience.

Only recommended for its sweets. Don't have tea in this place, you won't get that kadak chai for refreshment.
Shikha S — Google review
I had a very disappointing experience at this sweet shop. After consuming their products — suji ka halwa, samosa, and milk tea — I developed severe gastric issues that lasted for quite some time, something I had never experienced before. The quality of the food did not feel fresh or hygienic. Moreover, I find their pricing to be on the higher side, and unfortunately, the quality does not justify the cost. It feels unfair, especially for the people of Shillong as well as tourists, who expect better standards. I sincerely hope the management takes customer feedback seriously and works on improving both the quality and fairness in pricing.
Niloy M — Google review
I would like to explain this place in just 3 words: TASTY | EXPENSIVE | AVERAGE SERVICE And also overall experience was okayish. I was roaming around the streets of Shillong for some local shopping to be done and happened to see this outlet, bit crowded and also by looking at authentic Delhi style chats on the menu which tempted me to enter. I ordered Delhi chats and these people have a weird procedure to take our order. First you should order whatever you want from the counter and get the bill, then find a seat yourself, then wait for the waiter to come to you and take the bill from you to get the dish you wanted. If you go to the counter to get the same dish they won't hand it over to you, unless it is a parcel. So, if you're too hungry and visit this place you have to wait till you get a table and the waiter reaches you, that was quite bothersome. When it comes to sweets and chats we had, everything was excellent in taste and perfectly spiced up. Pakka Delhi style. Overall a good experience, when you're around this locality, I would recommend this place for chats, though it's a little expensive for that locality.

Nestled right at Don Bosco Square, Jadoh is a charming little café that serves up an array of traditional Khasi dishes, making it a must-visit for anyone exploring Shillong. This cozy spot, owned by R J Cunville, is particularly popular among students due to its budget-friendly prices and hearty portions.
Loved the Jadoh meal! Amazing food. Balanced plated. The fish ball was great. The pork pieces were succulent and the rice was well cooked. The whole plate is a wholesome meal with great sides. I don't remember the names of each dish but the chutneys on the side were simply amazing!

Oh My My ! I can never forget the taste of this. This is the best of Khasi delicacies I ever had. Mashed Potatoes, Rice, Dal, Tomato Chutney and some Veggies. This is heaven. The Aunty at the counter is soo friendly. I would suggest this on any given day. I miss this place now though.

Nestled in the vibrant Iew Duh, also known as Bara Bazaar, Kyrsoi Khasi Food is a hidden gem that has been delighting locals for over 40 years. This charming eatery offers a fixed menu that changes daily based on seasonal ingredients and the chef's inspiration. It's best to arrive early for lunch, as this spot tends to fill up quickly with hungry patrons eager to savor authentic Khasi cuisine.
Fresh homely cooked food with variety of meat dishes options. Base price per plate of jadoh is Rs 40 where you can customise your side dishes and meat options. I loved beef balls & chutney with tree tomato and radish salad. Pork salad and pork meat were good too.

Jadoh Dohjem combo - Rs.200/- Kyrsoi Khasi Food, Mawkhar, Shillong Khasi cuisine 23.06.25 $$$ Last night I reached home after 2am. We were all exhausted. I slept off till noon. My hunger was the only thing that woke me up & for a change I was craving for Jadoh. So I took the car & drove to Mawkhar & landed up at Kyrsoi Khasi Food. Now I'm sure the last time I ate at Kyrsoi was more than 15 years ago when they had a small shop near the Post Office. Things have changed since then. Now on the wall proudly hangs a framed photo of a famous MasterChef from Australia huddled lovingly & towering over the ladies of this eatery. Now equally impressive was the variety of dishes that one could choose from from the glass cabinet in front. I knew what I wanted. Jadoh & Dohjem & a bunch of veggies to go with it. This place has become so popular that you keep seeing it on your feed & you tend to fail to realize that's it's not you who is in the reel eating the food & that you've been missing out all this while. So here is my review on it - Ambience - 3.9 This is a typical Dukan Ja & yes it does have its own attraction. The row benches & tables can help to fit in many people who after spending time in Iewduh are looking to fill themselves up with tasty food & leave. Service- 4.2 Places such as these are not meant for people looking for menus & nice cutlery. So come here if you don't want to spend too much time eating but you still want good tasty & filling food. The lady at the counter was very polite when I was taking shots of the place. Quantity- 4.35 Quantity is good. If you need more ask for more & you will be charged accordingly. Quality - 4.7 So far as quality is concerned, I find it top notch amongst all Khasi food stalls. They still maintain that standard. Taste - 4.5 Well the Dohjem sniang was tasty but not the best that I have ever had. The veggies were all fresh. I heard people asking for tree tomato chutney but it was already over, later I found out that it's very popular here. So perhaps next time. The fried veggies were lightly sauted & flavors came from the vegetable & not some masala. The Dai Nei iong was thick & creamy & it was good no doubt but I still felt like some of its flavors was hidden somewhere. The one thing that really stood out for me was the Jadoh. It held the entire plate, tied all the loose ends together to make it a very good meal. This does not seem to have any meat included but the flavors from the meat stock & the lard cooking the rice was phenomenal. I haven't had such a satisfying Jadoh in quite a while. Price - 3.9 I ate only a single portion & stood up to pay. I asked the lady how much I owed her & she said 200 rupees. Yes I should not be complaining since I was eating until yesterday much more expensive meals in Hyderabad but then that figure was a little beyond what I had expected since it was just one serving of rice, one type of meat & a few veggies. Anyway it is what it is. Overall-4.26/5.0 If this Food Review had only Quality & Taste as a factor then this place definitely still rules the roost. But since other factors have been taken into consideration, the results that I felt after my meal is here for all to see. But then again people who eat in these establishments usually look only at Quality, Taste & Price. So I guess it's up to you to decide for yourself.
