B.S Anoop (Naturestrail Getaways)
+5
This restaurant exudes a delightful retro ambiance in the heart of Bangalore. Its inviting, relaxed atmosphere makes it a perfect retreat, although it tends to get quite bustling on weekends. While the initial visits left me satisfied, I've noticed a gradual decline in the food's quality with subsequent visits. Thankfully, the consistent level of service remains praiseworthy. The convenience of ample car parking is a definite plus, and the rates continue to offer excellent value for money.
Loved the authentic panni puri and dahi puri at this place. One order just wasn't enough for us, we ended up getting two sets each.
Wrapped it up with ghee roast dosa and a rawa masala dosa washed down with salty lassi.
Will be coming back!
Air conditioned restaurant, pure vegetarian. Good South Indian dishes served here. There's ample parking space. Affordable prices. There are not many beverage options. Good to order South Indian meals. Overall a decent food and service.
it is one of the oldest, well known upscale restaurants of Bangalore. The place can be crowded during lunch time and the wait can be long, but it's worth the wait. we tried their south indian meal, bisi bele baath, bonda soup, bisi bele bath, everything tasted amazing. Service is very quick and good, even though it was crowded. well maintained and had the satisfaction of having good food.
Very tasty and quality food. A well cleaned, calm and quiet atmosphere. Nice staff. I tried idli and vada, both were very tasty and soft.
One of the oldest go to places for your Upscale Vegetarian food Carving.
The service is very good. But in afternoon’s at peak time(1-2pm)it gets crowded and the waiting will be long.
But, it’s worth the wait.
Must try dishes:
1. Butter garlic naan
2. Veg kofta
3. Veg biriyani
4. Rasmalai
5. Masala dosa and filter coffee
But, this time Palak paneer gravy was bland and ok ok. But the over all experience here is good 👍
Also best part is the parking, u will always get parking here no matter how full the restaurant is!
A hidden gem in Bangalore.
Truly voluptuous meals, simple food homely meals and quick service.
The good old vibe and ambience adds on...
Worth a visit...
Wonderful and iconic. It's been there for decades and loved by old Bengalureans. The food was yummy. Rava masale looked like their signature dish. Managaluru style sambar was super tasty. Sweet lovers must try their kesaribath. They also serve breakfast buffet @ 315 /-.
Ample parking and hospitable service make us visit the place many more time.
The food is good, if you're in the area, that is. Nothing that made me go WOW, I need to come back for this. It was the new year, so the place was quite crowded. But otherwise, a decent place to eat. A bit heavy on the pocket though
Came here after 10 years and the quality, taste & service has gotten even better!! We had the vada, chola Batura & gobi manchurian. Soooo good
An expensive breakfast place to visit. Have been visiting the place for 15 years now and every time I visit they have disappoint me with their food. My dad loves the place so we come here. chilli cheese toast was good and reve masala dose was best. Other item are very bad - simply waste of money - masala dose, Puri, idli, vade, kesari bath. The waiters don't take whatever tips you give and it's less they will not take it only. You have to give them min 100 or more. With this kind of taste, I don't think anyone would like to give more tips. They need to improve a lot
The BEST restaurant in Bangalore. Royal ambience. Very calm place. Very good taste. Best vada I have tasted in my life. Rates little high, but justified. Very good staff. South Indian items were over by 11.30 a.m. Very neatly and hygienically maintained. No self-service wing. No hassles. Ample parking space. Garden in front. We had a wonderful time. Great experience. North Indian items are available in the evening. Only South Indian items in the morning. Very neat handwash and wash rooms
It's only the name of the restaurant at Ballal Hotel. It's at the ground floor.
Even though it is the old restaurant and the style, it's very spacious and neat one.
What more the food is high quality .
The masala dosa is too good . Tea is also good.
Nice place for informal meet and good food.
If you are looking to have a quiet place to hang around, even with coffee, this is the place, especially evenings 4.00pm- 7.00pm
18th April 2023,
We had a meeting here today. Of course the Masala Dosa and Mangalore Bajjis was there which was so yummy. Finished off with excellent tea.
29th May 2023 - our group had Dinner. Starting with Soup, roti with Dhal and paneer, ghee rice and Menthya rice .
It was all good.
One of the iconic yet underrated places in Bangalore for South Indian food.
Firstly , the location is great.
Ample parking space is available.
Great food quality priced perfectly .
Great for breakfast , lunch and dinner.
Do try out the following:
Brekafast : Vada, masala dosa
Lunch : South Indian meals
Staff is extremely cordial and it feels like the clock has not ticked at this place and it still maintains the old Bengaluru charm.
Very old hotel in Bangalore. It’s around more than 40 years old. It’s a decent vegetarian hotel where food taste delicious and tasty. Still they do take the orders in the notepad. All tables were occupied often by the people, when I went back couldn’t see any table free. When I went there were a less waiting time (maybe our choice of food might be simple and readily available). They got a good car parking as well. Well maintained and had a satisfaction of having a good food.
Typical yesteryear bangalorean restaurant, thriving mostly on its loyal clientele. Along the lines of Airlines hotel, Woodlands and Khoshys. However don't mistake it for lazy service or mediocre food.
The food is good, service is brisk and the prices are fair-ish (not over priced and snooty).
The menu is traditional.
