An ode to India's many culinary traditions and delights, elevated to new heights of refinement and innovation.

Mentored by Michelin-starred chef Rohit Ghai, a true connoisseur and lover of the heritage of Indian cuisine, Rivayat promises a magical experience, taking you on a journey to the very limits of Indian flavors.

Rohit Ghai’s first solo restaurant, Kutir in Chelsea, opened in late 2018, followed by the critically acclaimed Manthan in Mayfair in 2021. Rohit has worked in and run the kitchens of some of London's leading Indian restaurants, such as Benares, Trishna, Gymkhana, Hoppers and most recently, Jamavar and Bombay Bustle. He is also the first Indian chef to win a Michelin star for Jamavar within ten months of opening the restaurant and also for Gymkhana.

    I booked this as a surprise for my husband’s birthday, the food was incredible, the service was amazing. A special thanks to Mohcine for the great service, the surprise birthday cake and our very own photoshoot. He knew all the best spots for the photos. We even had a special appearance from the chef with whom we had a lovely conversation. The hotel itself is exquisite, we would definitely recommend.

    Riyavat was the best food and service we experienced in all of Marrakech! The chef prepares authentic Indian food that is delicious, on the same level with the best Indian restaurants in New York and London. The service was impeccable, very attentive. The restaurant is stunning and the ambiance alone is worth the visit.

    “I had an incredible dining experience here! From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was warm and inviting, setting the perfect tone for a lovely evening and the Moroccan architecture was something else 😍 . A special shoutout to our server, Mouhcine, who truly made our night memorable. He was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu, offering fantastic recommendations that we loved. Mouhcine went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed without ever being intrusive. It’s rare to find service so genuinely caring and professional. Thank you, Mouhcine, and the entire team, for an unforgettable evening. We can’t wait to come back!”

    Oprecht mijn beste ervaring ooit. Alles was een dikke 10 waard. Eet vaak Indisch maar dit was oprecht het lekkerste Indische eten dat ik ooit op heb gegeten. Verder was de service top. Wij hadden een ober genaamd Mohcine, wat is hij een vriendelijk en aardige man. Hij had alles top in de gaten. Glas water was leeg Mohcine stond er al om deze te vullen. Echt geweldig! Tot slot werd onze auto voorgereden door een aardige medewerker waar ik de naam helaas niet van weet. Tot slot de locatie, op video’s is niet te zien hoe geweldig en prachtig de locatie is! Bedankt voor deze mooie ervaring en tot de volgende keer. Honestly my best experience ever. Everything was worth a big 10. I often eat Indian food but this was honestly the best Indian food I have ever eaten. Furthermore, the service was great. We had a waiter named Mohcine, what a friendly and nice man he is. He had a great eye on everything. Glass of water was empty Mohcine was already there to fill it. Really great! Finally, our car was driven up by a nice employee whose name I unfortunately do not know. Finally, the location, videos do not show how great and beautiful the location is! Thank you for this beautiful experience and until next time.

    The Oberoi hotel is outstanding. The Rivayat’s location is great. The food was a bit below our expectation espacially the breads. Service was very good. The manager was not very open to our comments. The music a bit loud and always the same. It was a good experience to go specially for the beauty of the place.
