The short answer
Madhubann (Pure Veg Indian): what visitors should know first
Yes, if you want Indian vegetarian food in Ubud. A vegetarian guide lists it as pure vegetarian with thalis and dosas. Ask about spice levels and onion or garlic if you avoid them; do not assume it is Jain.

Why it matters
Why Madhubann (Pure Veg Indian) is worth your time
Indian vegetarian travellers often worry about eating on Bali. A pure-vegetarian Indian restaurant in the centre of Ubud, with thalis, dosas and marked vegan dishes, takes much of that worry away. It also gives older travellers a familiar meal after a day of unfamiliar food.
That said, a listing on a directory is not a guarantee. We checked the restaurant on a vegetarian guide, not by visiting, so treat the tags as a strong guide, and confirm the kitchen's practices on arrival.

How to experience it
Madhubann is listed on the vegan and vegetarian guide Spinach as a pure vegetarian Indian restaurant at Jl. Raya Ubud No. 6. The menu covers North and South Indian dishes, including thalis and dosas. The guide rates it highly for vegans, with marked vegan dishes, and notes that tofu replaces paneer in dishes such as palak tofu.
For a first visit, order a thali or a dosa and ask the staff to adjust spice. The listing mentions a Jain thali, but we could not confirm how the kitchen prepares it or whether onion and garlic are excluded, so ask directly if you follow Jain rules.
Menus and hours change, so check recent information before planning a special trip. It is central, so it works well after a morning at the palace and market.
