Very friendly people .. service was awesome plus food was yummy and guilt free. Ordered cream pf mushroom soup which was yum plus a grilled fish steak item Must say Fish was super tasty though I am mot s great fan of fish š As the waiters saw my toddler was not letting me eat they brought him books which kept him busy for quite some time .. thanks for that.A great place indeed !
Excellent place, we were at group of 13 so I was concerned about the service. But Nishanth (owner) took our order and made sure we were taken care of really well. Everyone of us loved the food, quality and great quantity. I personally like the chicken steak, the meat was tender and the gravy was so tasty! I highly recommended the lemon pie, made by Mr. Nishanth's wife. And the chocolate mousse, both were a perfect ending for that amazing meal.
I will go back there with my parents.
the food is just absolutely stellar. The people in the kitchen here are really working up magic. It's not a namesake steakhouse, it's a real, proper steak house, so don't forget to bring your bibs!

Just fell in love with the food, the ambience, the staff response time... My favourite place of all time... Hope they open it in Hyderabad too...
Would strongly recommend folks in Bangalore who enjoy food to go there. Amazing food. Really value for money. Do try out the grilled chilli shrimp. Cozy and quiet. Go! Go! Go! \m/
Lovely staff and great steaks with sauce made to perfection :) Definitely coming back :)
Awesome Sizzlers and Starters...you must try Basil Fish Sticks and I'm overwhelmed with the staffs and their service!
Awesome food. Excellent service. Overall, a great place to dine
Well an afternoon well spent. Having a subtle and cosy ambience. Have treated Captain Jack Chicken stake choked with Jack Daniels and the sauce in on the heavier side of the flavours. Mash potato was a bit more creamy to my taste but it perfectly balanced the strong sauce. The veggies were crunchy enough to balance the softness of the other items. But the Zucchini was a bit overcooked, but will not bring down the overall magic. I wanted to try the caramel custard but Covid had other plans. So tried the chocolate mousse. It was good, although not overwhelming. A must visit place in HSR to go on a date.

I just love love love going there. Whenever I get a steak craving this place is the one that pops up in my head. Steaks here are so good. Last time I went there I ordered treasure chest steak and what a steak! Both were to the point. Staff there are courteous. All the safety protocols taken too.
We always wanted to visit this place but could make it only today.
They were following all the safety measures.
Staff was very courteous.
We ordered minced chicken burger, barbecue chicken wings and chicken breast steak cooked in Jack Daniel whiskey.
We liked all the food we ordered.
The presentation was good.
We liked the taste too.Mild music was being played that helped our conversations at convenienc.
The portions food was quite big. We could not finish all the food though food was very tasty.
Would like to visit again to try out other items in the menu.
Iam a big fan of this cafe ever since it started. Ppl say steaks here are one of the best in Bangalore(I too agree with it) but for me the best part of this cafe is the desserts, which is very unique and delicious. Not to miss out with the staff behaviour with makes you feel very welcoming

One of the best places I have ever visited and enjoyed everything, especially the way we were taken care of by the staff. This is a unique place and if you have not been yet, you are missing something great.
During this Covid a personal touch with a handwritten note.!!A very nice gesture. Was super smiling. Not to forget the best steaks which i have been relishing since 4 years now. You guys have never let me down. However miss those courteous checks by the owner to all tables.
Wholesome and delicious chicken steaks. Mashed potatoes to die for. Thanks for delivering the food in record time (16mins). Thanks for the personalized note and complimentary chocolate rum mousse. It was excellent. Thanks!
Thanks for the personalised noteeeeee
In Love with this place! Tbh i found this place accidentally. And now a regular customer. I love all the chicken steaks and their chocolate mousse ā¤ļø is the best dessert I've had in my life.

We were a group of 3 looking to enjoy sizzlers on a saturday night. We searched this place and saw it had good reviews. If you have a car or bike, parking is a little issue. The place is small but has decent ambience and cleanliness. We ordered cottage cheese sizzler, smoked over water sizzler and soya soya chand. Th sizzlers were really tasty and the sauces accompanied with them had true flavors. The portions were big however the quantity of rice in them should be more. By the time we finished the sizzlers there was no place for desserts but we had a bite of sizzling brownies which was yummy. I'd really recommend trying out this place if you are looking for sizzlers or steak.
Steak well served. The service was good.Staff members were very polite and friendly. Great place to visit if you're a steak or sizzler lover.
The ambience was one of the best I have seen. The staff were very courteous and very helpful. Their sizzlers is definitely one of the best I have had. Their cold coffee is a must try.
The steaks are really amazing here. And I love their iced tea, one can actually get the flavor of tea when you have it. Their service is really good.
This is a place right in the neighbourhood somewhat remained out of my sight so far. Lovely ambience and the staff inside are very courteous and helpful.
We came here for the steak, and were not disappointed. We had the Pork Knight Rises and the Happy Grillmore ateak, along with a glass of Coconapple. The steaks were lip smacking, I just devoured the pork! Will definitely visit again
Ever had those lazy Sundays when you sleep all day and then suddenly wake up feeling like youāre gonna die hungry?
Do you have those ensnaring meaty cravings (kuch achcha khaana hai feeling) after a mundane day in office ?
Well, these are some very recurring situations Iāve found myself in, in the last 4 years, and I have always come to this place to satiate the palate.
I have literally tried everything on the menu (barring the veg options of course š)
This is one of very few places which attracts both the young and the old, from college kids to a family with senior citizens, no wonder thereās a 15/20 min waiting on weekends.
Hereās a list of some of my go-to dishes :
ā¢ Chilly lamb : Succulent pieces of lambs with perfect balance of flavours.
ā¢ Penne Alfredo SEAFOOD : Fresh juicy prawns, squid and basa fish slathered in rich creamy sauce. Perfect for anyone craving seafood.
ā¢ ROLLING in the deep : Another sinful seafood dish with rice and creamy coconut sauce.
ā¢ Captain JACKās Special (beef steak) : All time favourite, havenāt found any other place which can give competition to their jack daniel sauce(maybe their own mushroom sauceš) and those mashed potatoes Mann!! Theyāre as smooth and creamy as melted cheese.
ā¢ Beef steak in mushroom sauce : This sauce is divine, something you wonāt find on the menu. Nishant the owner suggested this to us when we were too saturated with the JD sauce.
ā¢ Beef Mince BURGER : Exactly how the burger should be, messy, meaty and juicyš
ā¢ Key lime cheesecake (something occasionally available on weekends) : Fresh cream cheese with mellow undertone of lime is the perfect way to end the meal here. Their Blueberry cheesecake is really good as well.
Food 4.5/5
Service 5/5
Ambience 4/5
Value for money 5/5
Awesome place for sizzlers and steaks. The cinnamon drink (digestive) after food tops it all.
The owner and staff are very polite and the place has a very warm vibe to it
They have fantastic burgers, and my personal favourite is Minced Beef burger with an add on of Bacon. Itās the only burger I have tried there and I didnāt have to try any more. Thatās how good it was!
Worth traveling to HSR from Indiranagar, anyday.
The portions are generous, food is good and service is great.
I would highly recommend this place to anyone whose a fan of meat in general and steaks in particular.
Make sure to try the shakes, they have some unusual ones on offer as well as a great Lime Pie.
One of the best places to get steak well done and with amazing sauces. Very good service and ambience. Loved the experience. Have been here twice and both times ...it was brilliant. The salads are good too.
I visited India after a decade for about 4 weeks and after eating Indian food non stop, I wanted to try something different. Once Upon a Flame came up as a highly recommended place and hence I made a visit with my friends for lunch and It turned out to be a delightful experience.
Must try : Watermelon & Tomato shake, orange Milkshake, beet Steak and chick pea steak which was simply fabulous and the continental Paneer was out of the world !!! ( yesss , I happen to be a vegetarian and I havenāt seen such a wide variety for vegetarians in a restaurant that serves steak ! )
Great music , ambience and the service was fast ... net net .. this was a 5 star experience!
Oh .. and You must also try their signature Key Lime pie which literally melts in your mouth!

I love going to once upon a flame every time I visit Bangalore, with my family and friends. Coming from Australia there aren't any places in Bangalore to enjoy a good steak or ribs or any good desserts. Once upon a flame ticks all our checkboxes and we can't recommend it enough to our friends. Its located in a very convenient place and Nishant is a wonderful host. He ensures to talk to everyone in person, ensures they get the optimal service and promptly collects their feedback. Wish I could give them 6 stars for their amazing food and service..
Steak is really nice, you must try. Chicken bbq wings is very tasty. Waiters are well behaved . ZOMATO gold is also applicable as of now .
The place is just amazing. We ordered Beef chunk burger. The burger was loaded with Beef Chuck, veggies and cheese. With each and every bite you could feel amazing taste of beef along with cheeseš¤¤.
The non-veg starter had fish fingers, chicken wings and prawns. All the three were deeped in barbeque sauceš.
Steakalypce comes with a beef steak and mild spicy sauce over it. With some rice, veggies and mashed potatoes. Steak lover's will for sure love it, as they give option for your steak. Whether you like it full cooked or half cooked.
The owner is friendly and coworkers are polite too š.
Love their paneer burger with BBQ sauce. Can do better on the cheesecake.
Love, love the place. Lives upto its name.
Always such a nice experience to be here. When we went, the place was so full, and the servers seemed so busy. Still when I began to sit, the server came like a ninja and put a cushion behind me as I was pregnant š„° Even with the crowd, the service was super fast with no compromise on the flavor. We always order the buffalo wings, it's a must! And the pork ribs were so soft and falling off the bone. In the end, they even made our desert complementary ā¤ļø
A good place for steaks and sizzlers.
A wonderful place, very nice food and very friendly and polite staff. My favourite part was the music they played, nice to listen to but not so loud that you cant have a conversation. Can't wait to go back!
Went here with my mother, who is a vegetarian. She also happened to be a trained chef. No complaints from her!
I loved the chicken pepper steak. Will definitely head back some day to try the lamb steak.
A must try for anyone who is in and around hsr.
Good Ambience, Pork Steak was juicy and delicious. Chicken mushy sizzler was a letdown with the chicken being dry.
Potion size can be improved and the staff is very cooperative and Prompt.
Zomato Gold is amazing as well as we got a 1+1 for food.
Cool, refreshing ambience. Food is authentic & is made with care & detail. Burgers r really good. Sizzlers r delectable. This is a place where I visit regularly. Np with parking too as bda is nearby. The entry is a bit contested so a minus š but nothing wrong with the restaurant. Oh, they donāt serve Lipton ice tea when u order an ice tea!
A lovely cozy place. Been here a few times, especially when had the urge for pork ribs. The cheese garlic bread is a must try. Good spread for steak or sizzler option. Only that for fish it is only limited to Basa. A steal also with Zomato Gold. Ideal place for revisits with family or friends.

The proper steakhouse with great attention to quality of food. Itās ambience is warm and cozy and the menu is nicely crafted for the customer which makes it even better. Loved the visit and the food.
I had ordered a pork steak and a chicken burger. The meat was nicely cooked and the burger was properly garnished. However it seemed a bit overpriced. Taste wise the food is quite good.
Itās a nice place for foodies, decor is normal nothing great about it but the garlic bread was awesome. One of the best that I ever tasted.
We tried chicken steak with jack Danielās sauce, however it was not up to the mark. Burger was yummy.
Staff was courteous.
The food is good, however cutlery was not cleaned properly. We have to request for replacement, which was not expected from such a lovely place.
Service time is a bit long , so you need to plan accordingly. Itās a good VFM place and if you want to catch up with your friends / family over a conversation, this is a place to be.
I visited once upon a flame on a Sunday evening and I loved the rustic interior of the place which is very vintage and warm.
The steaks were delicious and I was pleasantly surprised when the waiter asked us how we would want our steaks.
The pasta was great too!
The service was prompt and courteous.
Would definitely visit again!
It's a nice warm place with good music. The steak served are very delicious. Although it might be a bit pricy as only one person can have one steak (as per the quantity).
Overall it's a good place for a chill evening with good food!
Went to this place for lunch as this had a good rating in Zomato. Was searching for steak places.
This place is on the first floor on the building and the entrance is discreet.
The interior ambience is pleasant, and inviting.
The service is quiet and unassuming but efficient. The prices are nominal for the quantity and type of food.
We ordered Cream of Mushroom Soup, Potato Wedges, Beef Steak with Peanut Basil Sauce and Chicken Steak. Every item was good, well prepared and well presented.
Overall a brilliant place for lunch in HSR. Total Bill Came to 1491/- which is at par for this place.
We had Whats at Steak?(chicken sizzler), Django Unsteaked (Beef Steak) and Grilled pork baby back ribs. While the steak and sizzlers were of top notch grilled pork felt like it was lacking masala. Their Ambience was cool and funky. Staff was courteous.

Great place for non-veg steaks and sizzlers.
A lovely place with contemporary interiors. The staff are cheerful, helpful and know the menu well. There's a good selection for Vegetarians too. The Sizzler portions were a little smaller than we expected. On the whole we would definitely revisit Once upon a Flame
By now we would have been to this place at least 5 times if not more. Deserves the 5 stars for consistency in food quality, great menu, cosy ambience! Great sizzlers and some nice mocktails! Definitely worth a visit in HSR!
From the courteous waiters to the impressive yet humble owner, from the decor to the absolutely delectable food, everything about this place is a 5/5. The dessert has a unique taste and keeps you coming back for more.
Quality has been consistent for the last four years. Praaaaaaise God for this place šš»
Steak was good.. burger was awesome. We ordered one fish steak nd lamb burger. Both of them were quite fully loaded. Ambience and staff were nice. Shud certainly recommend

Loved the pork steak . Zomato Gold here is a steal deal! The chicken steak with coriander sauce was good too! The ambience is good and perfect to for lunch/dinner with your loved ones!
Who doesnāt enjoy a good steak? We ordered one veg and one chicken steak, along with a portion of garlic bread. Everything was delicious and the portions are of just the right size. The staff is pleasant too. Theyāve done a good job with the decor: we especially enjoyed the movie posters which have a āsteakā twist as well as the proper steakhouse feels the place gave out. The cinnamon tea shot at the end was the perfect ending to the experience. Will certainly visit again!
Good food, courteous staff, quick service and very good cheesecake. Was late to discover this place in HSR. Will be definitely back to sample more.
I love I love I love this place! I daresay they make better pork ribs that I do. And I know I make them amazing ;-). I love the ambiance and the staff is super friendly. My food came at the time I was told initially. Besides the baby back ribs we had the pork steak in jack Daniel sauce and a pepper steak. I dont normally like thyme or rosemary on my steak but I found that theirs was not overwhelming. We also had the coconut and mint coolers. We found their portions to be quite large, so even doggie bagged some. Overall we felt like it was value for our money and will go back 5/5.

Good food, excellent service, wonderful ambiance and fantastic music. One of my favourite restaurants in HSR Layout
Very good restaurant, can't believe we didn't know about it. We tried the spicy option in chicken steak and hash brown veg steak. The soya starter was the only disappointment. Both main courses were out of the world. Portion size was good and taste was impeccable. It's on the pricy side. We also had caramel custard which was nicely done but a tad bit more sweet for my taste.
Steak was amazing. The Rush in the mush (mushroom ) was a notable one. The thing which made us to spend more time than we eat is the ambience. Ambience and the interior was good with light music ( mostly English songs). Steak -5/5, mushroom -4/5, service -4/5.
I recently visited Once Upon a Flame restaurant and had a great experience. First off, the owner is an incredibly sweet person who went out of his way to suggest menu items based on our preferences. It was a nice touch that made us feel welcome and valued as customers.
The food itself was absolutely amazing. I had the steak and it was cooked to perfection - juicy and flavorful. I would definitely visit Once Upon a Flame again. The steak was truly outstanding and the variety of options on the menu means that there is something for everyone. Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a delicious meal and a friendly atmosphere.
Peaceful place, calms you down.
Lovely environment.
Great service.
Food presentation best šÆš
Food can be improved actually. But good place to go š
The place is created with heart. The owner Mr. Nishant is the finest person and a great host . He explains you all about the dish so nicely that while eating finally you realise all the elements are hidden inside. The decor is so warm and cozy.
Steaks have been done completely justice and one of the finest places to have steaks sizzlers mocktails (the coconut one) in Bangalore. Dont forget thier caramel custard and the rum infused chocolate mousse in the desert section.
Kudos to the team and the owner for bringing in the best steaks to Bangalore with such an affordable price.
Do visit Once upon flame if in Bangalore or visiting Bangalore and dont forget to say hi to Nishant!!!!!
If you wanna try authentic steaks this is for sure one place you should try.
Really like their chicken steak.
Itās a bit expensive but worth trying.
First of all the owners are really sweet people. They suggested us so many things to try based on our preferences.
The food is absolutely amazing. The staff has always been very polite & friendly.
Visiting this place last 5 years and it has become my absolute favourite for Steaks in Bangalore.
Always been a wonderful experience here. Highly Recommended š
Best veg garden salad i had in Bengaluru till now..and also we had potato sticky fingers,pork steakš,it was best. so yum and delicious.Must tryš½š§”.The staff over there are very friendly and helpful.The host never let anyone disappoints with the food and always ready to change if there is anything which you didn't like.Very much thankful to the staff for your such kind service.Must visit place for STEAK lovers.
This was my first visit. I discovered this place completely by chance.
First of all, the detailed and creatively curated menu caught my attention. I immediately knew that I was at the right place.
We ordered a Tenderloin steak called Raging Bull, paired with a Caramel Custard shake (I'd highly recommend both), and a Chicken steak called "All mushy 'bout you", paired with a Kiwi-based mocktail called Green Grass Hopper.
Nishant, the person who runs the place came over multiple times to check on us. He also packed for us a Chocolate Mousse, which was on the house. The staff is very friendly too.
In all, a wonderful experience. Please come here.
If you are a lover of stake then this place can be of a use. They make stakes well. Cooperative staff and they suggest well for a balanced cuisine. Ambience is good and maintained clean.
This place serves the best beefsteak sizzler in the city(Bangalore). Starting with their dips so dense , their steaks are so tender(depends on your preference I like it medium rare), the veggies very fresh , the smashed potatoes has nice texture and the add on rice all are delicious.
Drinks are also quite nice (hulk and their mojitos). Over all nice ambiance, helpful staffs and decent pricing. Go Go for steak lovers.
Are you craving a steak? Then head straight to Once Upon a Flame. I have been here several times, and it has become a go-to place for my friends and me.
This place is a good amalgamation of a casual and fine dining experience. Dim canopy lights, wooden furniture, and exposed brick walls elevate the experience. The punny movie references on the walls are hilarious.
They offer starters, pasta, burgers, salads, steaks, mocktails, milkshakes, and desserts. The burgers and steaks range from vegetarian, lamb, pork, tenderloin, and seafood.
Some food that I have tried here.
Herb & Cheese Garlic Whole Loaf - Three whole loaves loaded with cheese, herbs & garlic. It was very soft and delicate and delicious in each bite.
Minced Chicken Patty Burger - A sumptuous portion with a succulent and well-cooked patty. The omelet add-on completed well with the chicken patty.
Treasure Chest Steak Chicken Steak ā A big slice of grilled chicken chest cooked magnificently in chili garlic and cheese sauce. Served with mouthwatering squishy mashed potatoes, veggies, and rice, this steak is worth trying.
Captain Jackās Special Chicken Steak ā One of the finest steaks Iāve ever had. A grilled chicken breast inundated in Jack Danielās marinate served with rice, veggies, and mashed potatoes. The gravy was exceptional. We licked off all of it from the plate.
Elvis is Back - A milkshake with a good blend of ice cream, brownie, and peanut butter topped with brownie pieces.
Choco Bomb - A combination of Mars & 5-Star bars with Oreo cookies and ice cream.
The service was prompt, and they took good care of us hospitality-wise.
Cheers!
Quite a beautiful ambience along with a very peaceful vibe. Brilliant place for a family dinner or a date. The food taste was spot on and the quality & quantity was just too good for the price. Very friendly staff and the service was quick and accurate.
I have been to this place many times. This restaurantās main usp is that they serve Grilled food. I go there to have grilled protein cooked with less oil and having amazing taste, without degrading the quality of the food.
This restaurant is centrally located in Hsr layout. I prefer to park my car on some nearby empty road , and then walk to this place. The area around this place is often crowded. The restaurant is essentially an all American diner which serves soups , steaks, sizzlers, and other various grilled servings.
When I order, I specially request them to put less oil , and they happily adhere to it.
Just recently when I visited them , I ordered fish steak, chicken steak, chicken burger, and soup. All the dishes were top notch in quality. Steaks here are a must.
They design the restaurant as a typical American Texas desert diner . They have a very clean washroom and handwash area.
The Service was really fast and loved the food I've been only once but will be back soonš¤

Coming after a long time due to Covid gap. The place has not changed a bit. As usual, awesome owner (Nishant) and his team (everyone speaks good English and well versed with the menu). I tried only steaks so far and one of the best (among what one can get in Bangalore, not comparing with what you may get abroad). Chocolate mousse and caramel custard were also nice and balanced in flavours and sweet. Liked the mild flavours of coconut and run in mousse. Five stars for their hospitality and price, overall a good value for money.
