They had amazing butter chicken but now they don't have any non veg item in their menu. Have they turned into a full veg restaurant or is it because of lockdown

It's a cute little place with very comfortable seating, serving authentic North Indian curries to a lot of homesick techies staying in Nagawara. In addition to chairs and tables, they also have a raised floor with mattress and low tables where people can sit with their legs crossed. How cool!
Their food preparation is simple, only using necessary amount of oil and is well spiced. Recommended dishes would be Stuffed Capsicum and Daal fry. Other than these 2, all the items that I have tried haven't ever disappointed me.

This place was near my pg when i was staying in nagawara. So my friends and I frequently visited this place. Food was very good out here. Only drawback was they are taking too much time to prepare and serve food. So service wise improvement is needed.

For a perfect North Indian cuisine that's even light on your pocket, this is the best place near MTP to go to. You get ample food with great taste at very cheap prices. Also the service and home delivery is on spot.

The ambience is good for a budget resturant. Rajasthani themed, seating on floor cusions with low tables. We tried daal bati churma and it was delicious and authentic. The aloo pyaz paratha also was good. Overall conaidering the price point and the food quality, I am sure to visit this place often.

Wanted veg food and zeroed it on this restaurant. Ordered paneer pasanda and variety of Indian breads. Paneer preparation was great with sumptuous quantity but a notch higher on oil content. Indian breads were prepared to perfection. Will be back soon for more options.

They serve delicious food. I had a Parathe Wali Gali Combo just now. It was a quick delivery and fresh food. I had also ordered a jaljeera but it turned out to be a little too salty. Everything else was good.

I went for a lunch with family on Saturday afternoon. We ordered a dal bati combo and shev tamatar subji. Food was pretty decent for price paid. They also have Indian style sitting arrangement which looks nice but not very comfortable.
So, if you want a decent Rajasthani food at affordable price, this hotel can be good choice.
Improvement: AC is needed

Awesome lip smacking food I had, that too north Indian style here in bangalore after a very long time....came up with the office group here and we had ordered dal batti churma, with shahi lassi and delight combos all together. The missi roti was a hit and it tasted so well and delicious, really hats off to the chef who had prepared it. The lemon soda at the end we had ordered was also tasting great as we got it customised with less sugar....great work.
The staff was also helpful enough to understand our requirement and get it delivered on the table. Would love to surely visit again and people out there too should make a visit here anytime.

It's located few meters away from Manyata tech park. So it's a great reach for people working there.
We went on a weekday for dinner and tried potato cheese bites, phulkas and veg kadai.
Everything was properly prepared and good in taste.
Pricing is fair enough. They don't overcharge.
All in all you can go and have regular food over here.

I have been to this place more than 10 times. Very pocket friendly place. They are starting up. The owners are very generous and listen the feedback.

The food is average. Daal Baati choorma is awesome. You can definitely visit the place for its Daal Baati choorma. They don't provide it only on fir day and Sunday. So check with them before going.

The food is little more spicy and oily so we stopped visiting the place frequently. But it was very much pocket friendly.

Was just browsing food panda and saw this place to satisfy our food cravings. Ordered DB Special maharaja combo, mutter paneer and sweet curd. The taste was decent, being a recently moved north Indian in the city I was a bit apprehensive of the taste of the north Indian food they will serve, but to my surprise it lived upto to our expectation.

I have ordered 1 dal Bari combo, 1 maharashtrian baigan varta combo and 1 chola bhatura combo. Now after 20 minutes I got a call from the restaurant that only baingan varta combo is available. I was pissed off but still order that only. Now the food was good . pretty good. Baingan varta had great taste, spicy and the quantity was quite good. Now I never visited that place, so can't say anything about the decore and services but as per food. Everyone should try.

One of the best north Indian restaurants in this locality. Pleasant ambience. Delicious food. We ordered paneer kolhapuri, aloo bharwan and tawa roti. Soft rotis and very delicious curries. Biriyani was just simple and elaichi lassi was a bliss. Gulab jamoons were hot and delicious. Would have given it 5 stars if the service was little quick. It was slow as we went on Sunday night and there were lot of people.But food was absolutely worth the wait and reasonable price too.

Desi bites is a small yet well maintained restaurant with a good variety of Rajasthani and North Indian food. I ordered Shahi Paneer, Tawa Roti, Boondi Raita, Jeera Rice. The food was tasty but they can work on making things better. For e.g. gravy of Shahi Paneer was very thin, Boondi Raita was not great more water then required. I will surely go there for a Rajasthani lunch next time. The good part ends here and sad part starts (not related to food). The restaurant charged VAT, though they don't have VAT number.

Desi bites....nice name....nice place....nice food. This type of restaurant was much awaited by the people of nagawara :D Pure north indian + PURE VEG !

The dishes offered were quite impressive, we chose 'paneer kolhapuri spicy' and 'mix veg kadhai'. In breads we ordered tawa roti , missi roti and couple of paranthas. Looking at the size of the roti (either tawa or missi) for the first time you may also laugh like me. It was small, yes, too small, and I DIDNT like that.

Ambience is nice, you can sit on an elevated platform also. Music ...good.
The taste , the most important element, was also fine , which I was bit skeptical about. But you gotta score on this. Extra 0.5 stars for opening it in Nagawara.

It's a very small and descent place to hang out near manyata. The food is good at nominal price. There are not many people to serve, so you will have to wait a while to get your order on your table. Overall descent place with descent food.

POPULARITY INDEX
Relatively busy about 3/4 th full

AMBIENCE
Cozy Comfortable cafe type place They have a separate section for those who want to sit on the floor

CLEANLINESS
Relatively neat clean Hygienic

SERVICE
Needs improvement. Server is totally confused as to which dishes take time and which come fast. Forgot the missi roti. Asked him for extra glass forgot that too. Never came back once to table to see if we needed anything. Then after I had finished dinner no none brought the bill. Finally I just walked up to the counter to pay it.

FOOD
TUM YUM SOUP Approx rs 60 very tasty
VEG BIRYANI Apprix rs 70 Good but nothing great
LASOONI DAL Approx rs 70 Good but lacked that Kasoori methi dhania Deghi Mirch flavor and Lassan needs to be fried more
STUFFED CAPSICUM Approx rs 80 Good but not excellent; Needs to have mix veg stuffing not just aloo
MISSS ROTI rs 15 ok
BAJRI ROTI rs 16 approx Well made and tasty
GINGER CARROT JUICE apprix rs 50 Totally off flavor. Poor carrot quality
AMRASKHAND approx rs 60 Good but lacking that authentic touch no elaichi flavor at all.
Quantities were decent for price

SUMMARY
Overall Good Food Decent Ambience
With some refinements the food could be substantially improved.. Oh yes one more thing they tacked on a 14.5% VAT which was not disclosed on menu. I refused to pay it. Another problem is that half of their special dishes are nit available or would take too long. Of all the special subzis only stuffed capsicum was available. Veg soup was not available. Sprout and mixed salad was not. Moong and Gajjar Halwa were not. Basically you have an amateur management who is clueless about running a good restaurant

The place is very descent, not too big. Great place for veggies like me. The quantity is optimum n upto the mark and the taste will sooth your taste buds. Dal tadka was great, the section of Curries in the menu is very nice. It's a must try here. Was a bit dissatisfied with breads but the jeera rice made it up for that.
The staff is very generous😊😊
If possible plz provide proper ventilation in seating area😀

Overall a great place to have good food☺☺☺

Recently I visited Desi Bytes with my family on Saturday. My wife liked the food a lot. Especially the starters like Paneer Machurian , Gobi lemon are really tasty and served hot. Later I visited two many times and taste did not change and it  was maintained. Main Course is also good and good thing is its very affordable. Prices are not that high and must visit place for veg lovers.

My roommate and i decided to check this place out through home delivery during lunch time today. They delivered exactly as they had estimated. The delight veg thali,dry fruits lassi and chole bhature looked exactly like the photos uploaded by the restaurant (how rare is that!). The quantity was more than sufficient for two gals and we ate rest of thali for dinner as well. Oil used is less and taste is authentic and fresh. Lassi was packed in the kullad and was impressive. Paneer was just melt in the mouth and i am not fan of paneer!!!
Something that was disagreeable for me: the dal and chole were salty. Other than that we enjoyed our lunch/dinner and plan to visit the outlet and try rest of the menu. The excellent VFM value has sealed the deal for me.

Went for dinner, we ordered Malai Kofta, chicken and chapati. Desi bite was veg only but now I surprised to find non veg menu here. Food quality was amazing, I loved the malai kofta. About staff, they were super friendly. Also price is reasonable. If you are planning to visit here, do not miss malai kofta and bajra roti, you won't regret. Overall it was a great experience. Would love to visit again. I highly recommend this restaurant.

This is one of the most underrated restaurant of the area but is pretty good. May be because of the location bits not accessible. And also because it is on the opposite road to manyata tech park. It's a Rajasthani style veg restaurants and has nice ambiance and taste is food is also good. Can visit to check if suits ur person taste.

Taste wise the food here is really good , Ambiance is a little unqiue for this area you don't find many restaurants in nagavara which concentrate on Ambiance . They have good combos and the staff are helpful . The quantity of food is a little more than normal so it's better to enquire about portion size before ordering .

Loved the Dal batti churma and shahi lassi , i had it after long time here in bangalore and it was very tasty. Have tried other dishes too in their menu - i must say all were mouth licking with the desi tadka. It is located to opposite to Manyata tech park and pure veg, very less options in pure veg, so do visit this to have lip smacking food options.
