I and a lot of South Indians that I know usually tend to consider North Indian food to be unhealthy as we haven't tried it at the right eateries. As I took an unexpected route to Raghavendra stores (famous south Indian eatery), we discovered Sai Shakti restaurant and checked out it's reviews online and were pleasantly surprised to see North Indian food associated with words like "healthy", "home-made taste", "inexpensive". Now, we end up here almost every week for dinner:)
This restaurant has apparently has been there for over a decade! It's located in 9th cross near 90E route, Malleshwaram.

Ambiance:
-Gives a school/college canteen like vibe.
-Restaurant can accommodate up to 40 people.

Service:
-Gets very crowded on weekends after 7.30 P.M.
-Takes around 10-15 minutes to get the ordered food.

Food:
-Protein Chapati: Soft, fluffy, non-oily chapatis that get over in no time.-Veg soup: Thick and bland. Stay away from this one!
-Veg Kadai: The best gravy I have had here full of good amount of vegetables. We asked the waiter to make it spicier:)
-Stuffed Capsicum gravy: Capsicums stuffed with potatoes and served in a green gravy. Not bad.
-Tomato Rice: Tasted bland but could complete it as the rice quality served here isn't rubbery at all.
-Pudina/mint rice: This too was a little bland for my taste buds, not bad.
-Salt lassi and rose lassi: Filling but I didn't like the taste.
-Badam Milkshake: It's watery unlike what I have had at other eateries. Nonetheless I liked it as it had almond pieces in it.
I loved the cucumber-onion salad topped with green chutney provided as a side dish with Chapatis.

Must try: Protein Chapati, Veg Kadai

Conclusion:
-Best eatery in Malleshwaram to have healthy North Indian food.
-No food item that I had here costed more than Rs.100. Thus, pocket-friendly.
-Stick to the food items they're known for/pro at.

Sai Shakti is a place that has raw ambience and serves homely food. The place is generally small and demanding due to which one might have to wait for considerable amount of time before getting to taste their food. Their veg paratha is packed with vegetables and minimal flour. When taste takes higher precedence over ambience, Sai Shakti is bang for the buck!

I've been here for so many times, the food here is so great and hygiene. The quality and quantity of the food cannot be compared to any 5 star Hotels in Bangalore.
They don't add any kind of food colour or soda to the food, you can easily identify by eating there. The crowd is too much that they don't even care of food delivery.

Simple, Homely and tasty food. Have tried thier gobi which is crispy and tasted very good with less oil.
And phulka was soft and went really well with home made kind of Shahi Paneer.
Sweet lassi was just perfect with little sour n sweet.
Service was good, cleanliness was good too. And definitely worth the price paid.

It is said to serve authentic north Indian dishes, so one evening me and my friends decided to go there and taste the food.

We ordered gobi manchuri, vegetable stuffed parata, methi parata, tomato soup and paneer fried rice. Manchuri and paratas were really good. But the soup was served late and it was sour. The paneer in the fried rice was not at all fried and it tasted very bad!

Many of my friends referred me to this place and I wanted to go and explore.. and then it was lunch time and I was at Malleswaram.. hence decided to go.. the video place very is small and is pretty crowded.. as it gets closer to 2 it gets more and more crowd. That itself shows the popularity of this place with the office crowd from in around malleshwarm.
Not much to expect about ambience. It is almost like a mess specialized in North Indian food alone.
I ordered starter as baby corn Manchurian, phulkas, brijal curry..all were tasting good like a home made food..thats not too much of masala or oil..everything just right.
Plates are plastic and the food is served quite fast and fresh.
Lassi was really good.
Good place to go for a really quick and fresh food.

If you are looking for simple, clean and healthy vegetarian fare then this will at the top on you list. Nestled in a residential area you might miss it, but word of mouth shall help you get to their yummy food. Having grown up in the beautiful neighborhood of Malleswaram I cannot count how many times have we ended up here with friends or family dinners and lunches. I love their protein chapatis; served with a unique green chutney with freshly chopped onions, Methi malai mutter, veg kolhapuri, paneer delicacies, Pudina rice and lassi!
You definitely have to visit this place if you non greasy healthy vegetarian food:)

I have been here for a few times. Protein chapati, matar paneer, bindi fry, babycorn Manchurian, gobi Manchurian are some of the dishes I have tasted. Chapati and the sides are good, while the Chinese items are above average. They also serve a mix of onion and mint which is amazing. Among the. rice items, I had tomato rice which was bland at the best. Wish they could improve the taste of it. Finally dessert time! Custard is good and it tastes best during afternoon as it is freshly prepared then. Don't miss out on Punjabi lassi, for it's very delicious!

Few days ago we had been to Sai Shakti for lunch. For starters, we ordered Paneer Chili and Baby Corn Manchurian, Watermelon and Mousambi juice as well. Then we took protein chapathi with brinjal masala. Brinjal masala tasted good and then we finally ordered Pudina and Tomato rice. In Pudina rice cloves was little more. Overall it was nice.

I come here often with family. I find this place homely. The food is tasty, the staff are friendly. We never get bored eating here.
It is a budget friendly place, crowded during lunch time, though it's crowded we never had problems with the service.
For starters we have aloo chilly. After that we have chappaties or protine chappaties or pulka and after that we order a jeera rice or some other rice items. In the end we have rose milk or lassi. The ambience is simple. I have been here a lot of times, and never once had any complaints about food or service or the staff.

This is one vegetarian restaurant I would like to recommend anyone. The place was packed on a Saturday afternoon. The staff managed to get us seats in a short time.
Chapatti's were served hot. Tried masala papad, Mix vegetable curry, malai kofta, dal tadka, pudina rice & salt lassi. All were very well prepared and very tasty too.
The owner takes personal interest in every customer and is available on the floor. Noticed he genuinely wants every customer to be content.
The staff and cashier should be a bit attentive in ushering the customers in a timely manner.
The hand wash & washroom is located in one corner with a door. I didn't find anything to complain as such about the wash area.
Don't get bogged down by the waiting time. Your wait is WORTH it!!

Was hungry and saw this place so just went in... The place was almost packed around 12. I was with someone who was a paronth freak so i had no other choice but to order a stuffed parontha.

After a few 10 minutes or so the paronthas were served and to my surprise they not just looked yummy but were really tempting and tasty. Almost like home made stuff, and to go with it, chopped onions dipped in mint chutney and curd to add to the taste.

The combination of stuffed paronthas with curd and chutney soaked onions was really superb. I also ordered a rose milk shake with it and it was really nice.

As i said the place was packed with people so i reacon that all the stuff they serve must be delicious.
A must try in my opinion

Simple, authentic North Indian and pocket friendly. 
This place has existed for years and the only reason they are still here is because of the quality of North Indian food they serve here. I have eaten at this place multiple times over the years and they never disappoint me. Their signature onion and cucumber salad with green chutney is a great side to the rotis. 

Prices- 4 (Variety of foods to choose from and pocket friendly)
Ambience- 2
Taste- 3.5 (Authentic North Indian food which is comparable to home food)
Cleanliness- 1.5 (One thing they have to improve is the hygiene and cleanliness of the restaurant. I took a peek at the kitchen and it wasn't a good sight)

My overall experience was great and I enjoy my meals every time I go there. I recommend it for budget eat-outs and people looking for homely North Indian food.

I remember visiting sai shakti hotel from past 8+ years which is located in 8th cross malleshwaram.

This is a right place for bachelors and for their homely food.

I have visited this place many times and always ordered for protein chappati, malai kofta, staffed capcicum, dal rice and my favourite custard.

They serve food hot, smooth, fast and tasty.
Along with food they serve onion, cucumber salad which is the actual hero.
It adds taste to your food along with chappati.

My all time favourite is custard (Dessert).

I visited this place on a Thursday noon for lunch with friends. We have heard this about this place and wanted to try once. But now, I can say I'll be visiting it again too.
Being a North Indian food lover, I can say this place provides good food and at very affordable prices, in Bangalore. 
Among the vegetables, I really liked Stuffed Capsicum and Bheendi Fry.
They have protien phulkas (made up of soya flour I guess), which are really tasty.
And, do have a Rose Lassi at the end.

There are times when you'd like to eat out, but you don't feel like ordering a potbelly, love handles, or a double chin. When you just want something light but flavoursome. That's when you need to go to Sai Shakti. The food is appetizing and never swimming in oil. Like "mum's cooking," as they say. Unless your mum is Punjabi, and uses butter to represent love. In which case, you should probably dine here more often.

The Chana Masala is always excellent, as is the Rajma. The Palak Vegetable and Kadai Vegetable are both decent - they're actually loaded with vegetables, unlike most other joints of this sort where there's only a cube of carrot or a sliver of green bean as forensic evidence in a bowl of gravy.

The service is quick and the staff is friendly. In fact, at this price, the only reason why I rate the place 4 instead of 5, is because the recent rennovation worsened the ambience with terrible colours, and because the owner is sometimes a bit of a grouch.

Sai Shakti is the place to go to when you're lazy to cook and don't want to pop antacids the next morning. It's reasonably light and tasty. Service is brisk and the food is more than acceptable, if not sensational. My staples here include the mushroom manchurian, phulkas, dal, rajma, jeera rice, and paneer bhurjee. You can also end your meal with fresh fruit juices and milkshakes. The other cool thing is the salad they serve on the side - a blend of cut cucumber and onions with coriander chutney. The combination just works! The other important things are, of course, pocket friendly prices and low-oil-low-fat cooking. It's a hidden gem in the Malleswaram are.

This place is a little bit hard to locate if you only know margosa & sampige roads in malleswaram. :-) But the vegetarian board stands strikingly different. Decided to check out for dinner. On the menu, there is 'protein' chapati. Dunno what the protein is, but the chapatis are soft & hot. 4 chapatis & one vegetable palak is what I had. Was a wholesome meal. Felt healthy eating

"Small place , Economy stuff, Good Food " that's how we can describe this place in a few words .. well we need to first praise the kind of courteous behaviour which the owner has (ours was a big order and the way the owner dealt u really need to praise the way he dealt the situation ) , now the food . Panner parantha at 40 and chapati at 08 , Then there is protein parantha / chapati @ 10... Cost effective and very tasty. . The curries was good especially the veg kolhapuri ( a def try for the rotis) .. when it comes to rice .. once you should definitely try the panner fried rice. .nd the price we paid for 8 ppl a mere 800 rs for a 3 course meal ... so my experience it was wow .. coming back here again...

A must visit place for people who love simple, healthy and tasty veg food. I have visited this place more than 20 times and have never been disappointed. Ambience is average but food is awesome.

Personal preferences:
Protein chapati, Tomato fry, Bhendi masala and pudina rice.

The salad that they serve (if I may say so) onion, cucumber with pudina chutney is awesome 🙆

Sweet lassi also a must try :)

People who stay in Malleswaram and haven't visited this place; its a must. My rating is 5 on 5 considering the food served. However seating arrangement, ambience hygiene can be improved....

A craving for some homemade, tasty healthy food? This is the place to be. My parents have been coming here for the past 15 years.
1)Ambience- Located very close to the malleshwaram association, it's a simple place with around 15 tables. Some nights are crowded and a wait for about 10 minutes is normal.
2) Menu- starters aren't something u should be looking out for here. I suggest u start with their chapattis and phulkas. Aloo tomato gravy and their rajma are the best. Apart from which the kadai veg also tastes good. Don't forget to order a sweet lassi with this,a great combination. They also make some absolutely amazing jeera rice, served with a small cup of yellow dal.
3)Price - Extremely light on the pocket
For the last 20-30 visits I remember , I have never gone home disappointed. Please give it a try.

Go in if you want to have home made kinda tasty food at a little lesser cost... Try out Alu Chilly for the starter, Fried rice and Dal Fry with Paranthas. You might feel the need to order more of those, just like how we felt... End it off with Lassi or Milkshake... Don't order MangoShake cz there is no flavor of mangoes. Other than that anything else would be good to try. The place is clean and the owner, waiters are friendly.

Pudina rice may be a good, refreshing and light choice. The Tomato juice is icing on the cake.....

Food was very good feels like home made less oily. Food was very tasty. Methi paratha was great. If you go at right time can get a place otherwise u have to wait until table is empty.

I visited this place last night and after waiting for a while for a table for 9, I was already too hungry. We had a few different Manchurians and they were good and spicy. The Alu Manchurian could've been fried more in my opinion. This place offers Phulkas, which is like a huge thing here in Bangalore because most restaurants don't. Coming to the Gravy's, I felt they're too sweet.
If you're a fan of a cuisine that's more towards the sweeter side, this place will not disappoint you.
All I'll say is this place is good but it's definitely not the best. I've had better in other restaurants with the same Authentic North Indian food and similar prices.

Protein chapathi with curries are great !! Rice items are also very good and served with raitha . I'm not impressed with the Manchurians . It was OK . But still a good restaurant for north Indian food

North Indian food with a homely taste .. Sums it all .. Malai veg Kofta is the dish to try for .. So are the bhindi fry and sweet lassi .. Chapatis are good .. Rice options are descent .. The only problem is that not all dishes are prepared daily .. It may force you to choose an alternative .. Overall .. Not pricey .. Worth giving it a try ..

Located at Malleshwaram 8th cross, opposite to Safal Super Market. Provides decent food for the money you give. Small place but, run by a good bunch of staffs, very friendly and calm. Ambiance is pretty good. Soups are a bit low on flavor. Must try Baby corn Manchurian, Panner butter masala with protein Chapati.

My friend introduced me this place. This is typical decade old hotel but with really awesome taste. Highlight is protein chapatis. There are lot of sides which are really nice, they are cooked like restaurant but tastes home. Mild spicy, less oil and healthy. Price is reasonable and surely a good place for food if you like to have a simple veg food.

Gaurav Sai and Amit Kulkarni ask me for a good place to have lunch which is nearby.. So first thing that came to my mind is this hotel.. Enough of the history why we came here.. It's buzzing with people.. And the waiter takes the order and within no time we have all the orders.. I've been to this many times and still love the food.. Protein chapatti and lassi is a must try.. good home made like food.. A must try every guy in Malleswaram..

This was my second visit to Sai Shakti and I was able to sample a lot more of their menu. Simplicity is the name of the game, with tasty food which is light on the stomach.

Ambience is nothing great, but will suffice for most people. Seating is limited and be prepared to face long queues on the weekends.

Coming to the food, we ordered bhindi chilli, paneer bhurji, aloo Mutter, protein chapati, dal tadka and aloo paratha. The portion sizes are not very large and the prices are very affordable. The food tastes homley and quality of the food was top notch. Service is good and the cheap prices coupled with small portions enable one to order a wide variety of dishes.

All in all Sai Shakti is a great place to grab a quick lunch which is tasty,relatively healthy and easy on the stomach, without burning a hole in your pocket.

There are a few places which are always close to your heart, which are your "go-to" places for rainy-day, low-day, not-feeling-well-but-I-still-want-to-eat-out day. Well, this is one such place. I have been going here for years now. The food always clean & simple. No food colors, no oil floating gravies. Simple food to fill your stomach & make you feel better instantly. Always a must place after shopping at Malleswaram 8th cross.

The phulkas are a must try & so is the Rajma. These are my favorites.

This is a pure vegetarian destination with the availability of healthy food. Please try 'Protein Chapathi' which is very tasteful and healthy too. Most of them drop in here to get the parcel and I always dial in to get my food parceled and have it ready for take away. Also try their custard. They provide you the masala onion on every serving which will be awesome.

When you don't have anything for dinner and you want something that fits your budget and yet tasty, you can go here. The aloo paratha and sai shakti special (gravy) is just too good.
And lassi. Yum.

This small restaurant is located in Malleshwaram and is one of the best in Bangalore to get home food like dishes.I've been here 2-3 times and loved most of the items on their menu.Their pricing is also very good and taste is excellent.The food is served fast with a salad that tastes great too.I've tried many dishes and they are as follows
Vegetable soup-unlike other soups this is a different one and very nourishing.
Bhindi Chilli-Tastes great though i don't like okra
Phulkas-soft and very tasty
Chapatis are also very good.There are protien chapatis also on the menu,must give it a try once.
The breads go well with most of their gravies which taste awesome.The veg kadai was good.
I'd recommend theri pudina rice as it tasted well too.
Try their Rose milk as it's great.Rose lassi was also good.

Food: Nothing short of awesomeness. They call themselves authentic north indian. Which is not true but it's definitely authentic North Indian adapted to South India.

The protein chapati (multi grain atta) is just amazing. You'll lose count of the number of chapatis you'll eat unless someone is keeping tabs. The side dishes are all competent enough to enhance the taste of the chapati.
The highlight of the meal though were the 2 rice items - Tomato rice and Pudina rice. It's a must have in this restaurant. The curd rice isn't bad either.

Ambience: I'm sure you haven't come to this place for its ambience. For a highly populated place like Malleshwaram, these people have a seating capacity of more than 50. Decently maintained, clean enough to eat without cringing.
Service: Slightly on the slower side but you can attribute it to the sheer amount of orders these guys churn out. Definitely can do better. Order taking was brisk and fast If you know what to order.

Price: A meal consisting of 20 chapati, 7 side dishes, 2 tomato rice, 4 Pudina rice and a curd rice cost just 1100. VFM? You bet.

Overall: an awesome place if you want no nonsense, just tasty food. And of course, your wallet will not lose as much weight as you end up gaining after the meal!

I’ve been visiting this place since many years! Not even bored of it. One of the best affordable restaurants in malleshwara. Their Chinese starters are the best. Do try their Gobi 65 and Panner Chilly. And also try out their Tomato rice pudina rice The price is worth and the quantity they serve will be sufficient for the price paid. When it comes to Gravy/Curry try Kaju masala and Shahi panner it’s good. And their Lassi is also amazing

It's a small simple, veg food restaurant, I've been there since I was a kid. Good for North Indian food. Love the fact that they serve chapati , so it feels like homemade yummy food. Must try their peda lassi. They close by 3 pm. and open for dinner again. Not sure about the timing though, so if you're in Malleswaram this is a simple good food option. The staff is good.

It's a tiny restaurant nestled on 8th cross, Malleshwaram. On weekends, there is a wait as the restaurant is packed with families out for their favourite food. The prices are value for money, quantity is adequate, food is like home made. One doesn't feel heaviness due to overload of spices in their gravies. Try their protein chapathi. Service is friendly and quick. Don't expect glitz and glamour here, it's a simple functional restaurant with seating capacity of about 40 people at one go. Many people order food as takeaway. A big plus point - your stomach won't feel quesy after eating any of their gravy/masala items here
