This place has an amazing view in the evenings! Amazing place to have good north Indian food with a couple of drinks.
Also very light on the pocket.
A very nice place to chill with a couple of friends. Good food, loved the chicken lollipop and the chicken fried rice. Would recommend this place to everyone.

Ambience
Good and food was really tasty .
Also friendly staff.
I had chilled beer yesterday at Aaranya so nice service was excellent .....
Roof top
The ambiance of this place is off the roof. Food is excellent and the music which surrounds you really gives you chills. The service of this place is very good. Ranjan has been very kind and gave a good service. If in HSR and want to have a chill time with the gang, this place is the best.
Awesome place in hsr lyt surrounding. Nice service.. Reasonable price & roof top restaurant. Tasty food. Their My favourite food is dragon chicken
The place is near my office so one of the more popular options but honestly this place is really good. The alcohol options are good, most days have offers, their chicken mangolian dry are awesome and ambience is really nice.
Very nice place in hsr lyt .yestrday i was drunk budweiser draught beer it s very chilled so good and i also had chicken aaranya spl its very tasty....
Don't forget to try their Tandoori chicken chicken. It's simply awesome. Ambience is also nice and the food is value for money. Perfect place for family/friends outing.
We had a very great time it was a team outing had a nice time with friends .. the staff was too friendly and suggestive the prices are so pocket friendly we had a large of old monk for 100 rs the food was soo tasty love this place a lot
We visited the pub A-Bar adjacent to Aranya. It's a very nice place for weekend get together. We liked the new makeover of the pub, especially the ceiling which gives the feel of sky. Food was very good, service was excellent, and ambience was superb. If they could serve the food a little bit faster that would be lovely. I sincerely recommend this place for a wonderful roof top dining experience.
A wonderful place for hanging around. We visited their A-BAR pub the other day, service was fantastic, and the food was really delicious. Guys I recommend you to try their Tandoori items. Good music, nice people, great food and above all value for money. When most pubs Bangalore are charging us so heavyly, it's worth a try here.
A/S Chicken biriyani a/S chilly Chicken and gottura Chicken so nice super GOOD food.....So nice lunch time I like food.ok so friends go in Aaranya Restaurant...Ok
Very good place to chill out pub attached to it is very interesting.. Tandor food is very good try out for margarita picture was very nice ...
This has been my most frequently visited place when I stayed in HSR. The food is delicious and has never disappointed in any way, the service is good but a little slow comparing that the place is never crowded. The wooden seating is great and ambience is beautiful.
The wooden sit out on a perfect evening with the delicacy of food and the super service makes a perfect dinner.
Perfectly roasted baby corn Manchurian with the louring green chutney. Ah! Good start with the starters continued by the Sarson ka Sag with Makai roti and a perfect suggestion in the menu itself😀
Even if u think u r filled by roti and curries still u can eat the fried rice and once u take a spoonful u LL not let it go and finishes everything..
Worth of going
I love this place just for its Mirchi Kababs they are lipsmacking and red hot. Decent ambience with good service. Overall food quality is also good. It's a bit on the costlier side considering everything which I am getting on my table.
It's a normal rooftop restaurant/bar. I have even got the food delivered from this place.
Food quality: 3.5/5
Ambiance: 4/5 for the good feel of restro-bar ;)
Hospitality: 4/5
Overall, Good place to have drinks and food.
Nice place to hang out .. Very supporting staff .
Food quality is very good. Retro themed restaurant, with a wooden seating and comfy ambience.
Special recommendation: hara bhara kabab.
Very nice place. Food is awesome, lots of variety. The crowd is okayish. Service could be better. Sometimes, they don't have everything from the menu. But overall, a nice cheap place to hangout

2. Difficult to get there if you are coming from the the BTM side because you would have to cross the infamous Silk board junction which is always packed with traffic.
Final Verdict: this is a place where ive been to several time. Reliable good place for a few drinks with good food. It is also suitable for family lunch or dinner
Food: 3.5/5
Value for Money: 3.5/5

The best things for this place you can find it easly and not so much people there so you can get good place wothout any waiting i love northindian food so i choose this place and happy with food thanks
A tiny place located on the rooftop in HSR. The whole place is done in an eco friendly way. Very rustic interiors and simply done up place. We ordered dal khichdi and paneer tikka as we were looking for a simple meal. Both things were good and buttermilk too. This place is definitely good for value for money. Wish we could see more family crowd patronizing this place.
I enjoyed the delicacies with my colleges for dinner. Serves you good quality and quantity of food and has a large number of variety in menu in different cuisines like tandoori Chinese Indian...etc
Even several with in shorter period and has cardand online payment options also
Thanks for your lyrics night delivery to office when we are so hungry and no one is there to deliver.
This place became a regular Delivery outlet during office days for us. Again I do find it awkward why this place is rated so average and I hope they pick up good. Obviously they do not look a family dining outlet.
Ordered Ajwaini Fish, Bhuna Mutton, Reshmi Kebab, and few other gravies and never been disappointed with the taste.
Situated in HSR Bda complex,it's known for its non vegetarian collection.
Veg dishes also taste good.
Have a wide range of selection in North Indian main course.
Curries are really good here.
It's economic,filling and the staff are quick enough.
A budget friendly restaurant which is also hygienic.
Ambience : 3.5
Variety:4
Food:3.5
Over all experience :3.5
P.S:non vegetarians,try silk chicken recommend by one of my friend!

thanks
realy fantastick place in hsr.I will give 5 rating because totaly nice food nice service nice ambiance......chicken tikka my favorite dish in aranya.
Food is good across all varieties of Starters. Kababs are great here. The main attraction is rooftop and ambiance. Prices are a bit high on the bar menu. But still I am fan of this place as food is great.
Trying hard to follow our resolve of “no eating out on weekdays”, we finally gave up yesterday, and decided to order in. Both of us decided on north indian, and settled upon Aaranya. It had been a while since we ordered from this restaurant. We used to order frequently from this place earlier, or rather this was probably the only north indian delivery place. But after getting many more options on zomato delivery, we had slowly drifted away from Aaranya. Surprisingly, I have never visited this place personally.
I have never visited this place personally, but been ordering for home delivery for a while now.
Their menu has a good variety of dishes, both north indian and chinese. I have tried chinese only once I suppose, and it was alright. You can't really expect much from desi chinese.
North indian dishes are decent, not very oily/spicy and not heavy on the stomach as well as pocket :)
Our usual order consists of tomato soup, paneer makhni, malai kofta/palak corn, sometimes a chicken gravy and assorted breads.
I love their tomato soup, though it's a little on the sweeter side. Paneer is also good, but don't expect any gourmet dishes.
Stay away from their pulao/biryanis, had tried them a couple of times and regretted later.
Deliveries never take long from this place, which is another plus.

One of the oldest places in HSR-Silk Board area, it's one of our common lunch haunts. We rarely made it past the starters, the kababs and tandoors are pretty good. Pricing is alright, not really a cheap place, and even the semi open air seating is quite nice, old school. Better to order in, but a dependable place on most counts!
Was one of our favourite place when we used to stay in Teacher's Colony & was almost like our second home:) Must say its a place to chill out on any day!
Having food & drink at roof top with dim light made the experience simply amazing!
The reasonable rates & lively ambience makes anyone visit this place again & again and it hardly disappoints you..
Must must place to try who stay around!
This place was next to my friend house so we have gone several time to this place .
We can say this was next door place for us to have drinks and food.Cheaper drinks and tasty food made it reasonable enough for us to try several times.
Overall a bachelors place :) :)
Been to this place many times as its one of those which is quite nearby for most of the friends in my group. Climbing stairs to reach the spot will burn some of your calories for sure. Like the KF and Tuborg over here. Although didnt enjoy the main course their starters like manchrians and raja special are quite good. Comparitively lighter on the pocket as well.
Went there for a team dinner. We were a group of 12 (all men) on a Friday evening. It was a booze + food outing. The ambeince was good. The food was above average. The mushroom starter was the best. Non-veg straters was also equally good.The pricing is normal. Everyone had close to 8 pegs, with lavish starters and main course. The entire bill came to around 16K. Last time we had a team dinner in a restaurant in Kormangala, it was the same 12 folks, but the bill came around 32K, when compared to that, this one was far better in all terms (taste + ambience + service). The only negetive that we found was that there was a delay in serving the food, but it was a Friday night, so that can be appologized.
Something that I have noticed off-late,in all the resutarants is that they say they have internet, but you ask them there Wi-Fi password. They frown at you. CheersAustin
Awesome place(rooftop)in bangalore.so nice & quick delivary so niceeeeee beautiful......
Delivery is quick. I get the order within 30 minutes. The restaurant has a wide variety of items to choose from. My favorite items would be Aaranya special veg curry and aaranya special fried rice. The vegetarian items I have tried so far were fabulous. Overall the food is average. Although the price is too high, I am happy with the quick delivery. The food is packed nicely and is also hot when delivered.
Rooftop restaurant .airy.good service.portions are large.chicken soup was tasty but with very few corns..Punjabi murgh was delicious with naan.chicken biryani was not very flavourful but portion was large accompanied with raitha.
The food is just satisfactory but the prices are very high not worth the money if the prices are reduced then i can rate this place at 4.....
Been here once. Its a rooftop restaurant, liked their stone concept seating. Coming to the food nothing that'l wow you. Normal food which is pretty much served in most of the restaurant these days. Lil over priced for the kind of food they serve, agreed that they've made an effort to improve their food quality still they hav a long way to go.
Ambiance -4/5
Food - 3.5/5
Service- 4/5

I happened to go this place accidentally although I stayed near to this place. This restaurant is at the top floor which adds to the ambiance. This also makes the place hot in the day time. The food over here was good. We ordered a veg pulao and few vegetarian dishes and were good.
The serving was fast although the staffs were not attending enough.
The price is decent enough and will not go heavy on your pocket.
This review is based on vegetarian items only. I would like to visit the place again and try the rest of the cuisine too.
Over all rating

Haven't been to the restaurant but have got the food delivered. Tastes quite good but found it over priced. If the cost is not a concern you can definitely order. Pretty much everything we ordered was nice
Tried the roof top restaurant in Aaranya on one Friday evening with colleagues. It is a cool place for hangout. Food was so unbelievably yummy. Service was great. All the items are pretty reasonably priced. I would love to come back here again.
Food is quite good here with unique taste...which remains for long. The only con about the place is the exorbitant price. It is a good place for hanging out with friends...grab a beer and chillax!!
I don't know why people have given less rating to this place. Food is awesome in quality and quantity. Most important thing each and every dish has a very distinguishable taste. Perfectly cooked , neither under cooked nor over cooked. Now coming to ambience its good all together.
This place can beat many biryani houses in town... U know you get a feel with the first bite...
The rice used is one of the best one
Interiors are done well and service good....
Best place to eat biryani near silk board
Gud fud. Great interiors. Mast ambience. But giving it only a 3.5 because I didn't get to have my fav mutton biryani. It was not available though menu had it and I felt it to be overpriced... I would have given it a 4 had it not been for the prices which were a tad expensive for the taste. Overall had a good experience....
This has been introduced by my friend.nice ambience for couples.the rooftop was so nice.its not so posh it felt like decorated home.food were awesome but not so much varieties .drinks were at reasonable price.pocket friendly place to spend ur month end.i luv dis place and everytime if i want to go rooftop dis wld b my first choice
Ambience good, food taste good.
But price is not justifying the quantity, water they provide is very odd in taste.
Though in spite of unjustified cost and bad quality water we had some great food and time.
Might not go nexy time if they dont justify quantity with price.
Had been to this place after a exhausted word day with a friend with no mood. Surprisingly the food and the ambience both were great. It will be a sure visit place from my end.
Been at Aaranya, HSR layout, innumerable times. Probably this is the restaurant I have visited the most in Bangalore owing to two reasons. First it used to be best family bar and restaurant (that tag has been taken away by Mish Mash now) near HSR Layout. Second it is an open air restaurant with dim lights and no music whatsoever which gives me the liberty of smoking, drinking, eating and chit-chatting, all at the same time. Pros: Prompt service, tasty food, great starters. Cons: No cocktails served. Tip: Do try the non-veg platter.
This wud b the place I will go if I want to gulp some down nearby. Slightly overpriced for the ambience and quality they offer, but the environment is quite like a forest with lots of plants. The food, service and staff are average, nothing to complain about though. Considering it does not have AC the prices can be a lil more reasonable, but the place abuzz in the weekends, so I guess others find it ok.
It's a nice affordable rooftop with amazing food. They have a friendly staff with amazing service. I tried their veg food and it was amazing... We went there after a tiring day and were completely satisfied.
One of the best north indian(veg) i had in bangalore (Especially malai kofta)....as staying near silk board ordered few times home delivery n found everytime it to be satisfying experience...been dere once for dining. ..found dat place to be best in HSR as far both ambience n food is concerned..really loved it. be it girlfriend/friend/family. ...u gonna love dis place. ..try n njoy.....
Good place to have food and drink together. Reasonably priced. Good intetiors. Nice locality. Ideal for taking out family. Peaceful ambience.
Best restaurant if you’re looking for a good old roti-sabji non-veg meal. The best thing about Empire is the VALUE FOR MONEY. AMAZING TASTEFUL DISHES being the second. Probably among one of the best non-veg restaurants that I’ve went to. Their “Manchurian Chicken” and “Tandoori Chicken Gravy” is a sure to try, coupled best with “Kerala Parotta”. They also have very good “fried chicken & snacks” options.
The service was amazing, the staff very friendly and quick.
The ambience was good and sanitary. This is place where you’d want to visit to have a HEARTY, FILLING & TASTY non-veg meal, give treats to friends or just hang out with friends over some light snacks. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED FOR NON-VEG LOVERS.
Not really sure about how the vegetarian dishes taste.
I recently savored the butter chicken and ghee rice combo at this establishment. While the butter chicken left me with an average impression, the ghee rice stood out with its rich flavors. I also indulged in the tender coconut pudding, which was truly excellent and a definite must-try. My overall experience here was positive.
Update:- Visited again, tried few more vegetarian options and liked the taste this time.
Service as usual superb!!
Food was average.
Maybe not for my taste palette.
Order - Kebab ( which was not kebab but fried chicken) and
Tandoori chicken - I didn't like any of these, just okay, tandoori chicken was dry and kebab was not kebab as per north cuisine :( I dint know that.
Dal, aloo jeera and tandoori roti - okay okay, quite simple homely kind of taste.
Mint cooler - it was the best among all the items we had ordered, very refreshing.
Service was amazing, everyone was so humble and polite and they were all around to check if anyone needs anything, very active.
One of the fine restaurant for Mutton Briyani. You can try Alfaham here. Its really good. I also liked tasting Brain fry. The manager is very responsive and keeps checking if everything goes well. They also have 1st floor space for larger seats.
Definitely worth the try.
I visited this restaurant for dinner. Though I'm vegetarian I liked Empire restaurant vegitable dishes.
I liked the ambiance
Staff was very good and obedient..
Food was very very Good..
Portion was sufficient..
I will definitely visit this restaurant when ever I pass through HSR LAYOUT
I recently dined at Empire Restaurant in HSR Layout, and overall, I had a satisfying experience. Here's a brief review of the dishes I tried:
1. Butter Chicken (7/10): The butter chicken at Empire Restaurant was flavorful and had a good balance of spices. The chicken was tender, and the creamy tomato-based sauce was delicious.
2. Chicken Manchurian (7/10): The Chicken Manchurian was well-prepared with tender chicken pieces and a savory sauce. It had a nice blend of sweet and tangy flavors.
3. Ghee Rice (6/10): The ghee rice was decent, but it fell short of my expectations. It lacked the aromatic richness that is usually associated with good ghee rice.
In summary, Empire Restaurant in HSR Layout offers a decent dining experience with a range of dishes to choose from. The butter chicken and chicken Manchurian were tasty, though not outstanding, while the ghee rice was a bit underwhelming. The service and ambiance were satisfactory. It's a good place to enjoy some North Indian foods.
Serving people's are very friendly and good to see like this. Excellent experience.
Especially, ambience was neat and clean.
Mr.Pankaj is a great man, and good server along with friendly mentality. His work is just awesome.Keep it up.
overall, great culture.
"I had an exceptional dining experience at the empire thanks to the outstanding service provided by our waiter Mumtaz. Their attentiveness, friendly demeanor, and knowledge of the menu truly enhanced our meal. I appreciate the excellent customer service and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a delightful dining experience
Nice one. Biryani taste is below average. Must try chilli chicken.
Mr. Krishna had served us the food and it was very great and delicious.
Good service and keep it up.
Excellent Food ad service. Mustakim was always at your service. Very pleased
The only place we remember for late nite munching is empire. i have tried almost every dish on their menu there is no dish which was disappointing.. everything was good till now.Easy bites section is a go to place for quick hunger bites tasty and economical.Service is excellent. My top recommendations are ghee rice,kabab,biryani,coin parota,butter chicken, tawa shawarma,Arabian pulpy grape juice and sea food mix from easy bites.

Had a nice non-veg thali at Empire HSR layout, butter chicken and coin parota is excellent, kabab chicken+ ghee rice also nice, remaining all were decent.
Very pocket friendly and delicious in taste. Quantity sufficient in comparison to its price. Please try their crispy chicken n chicken popcorn. It can be a great competition with kfc chicken.
