Reviews Farmlore

Had a great experience in Farmlore. My 1st fine Dine-in experience and it was just amazing. Visited Farmlore for dinner, it was a 10 course menu (5300/- per ticket). The dishes, plating, ambience everything's was great. The chefs & staffs were super friendly explaining about the food and place in a detailed manner. We even got a small kitchen tour at the end. We were not able to see their farm since we went for dinner. !! Ensure to reach on time !! Dinner 18:30-22:00 (be there before 19:00 so that you wont miss any of the dish). So that you can have a wholesome experience. PS: Don't mis their Gummy bear candies.😜 Cheers guys.!!🍻

Truly theatrical experience but comes at a cost. It's a one of a kind experiential 5 course and 10 course meal concept with set menu, highlights being the location (amidst a 5 acre mango farm), knowledgeable staff with myriad experience in different cuisines who churn out different dishes everyday in 'masterchef' style, and ofcourse the food itself. Personally loved the inter play of flavours in all dishes mostly being a hit but a miss in a case or two. Very relaxed environment. Very calm. The whole place screams of organic, finest sourced ingredients including locally produced in the farm itself, best of the best staff who are very courteous and chic interiors. Suggest to go with open mind and enjoy the experience. Bonus if you get a chef s table, you can the see the preparation right in front of your eyes.

The best degustation experience and service here. It was a long drive from South Bengaluru but it was worth it. A cosy place with the best chefs preparing and presenting sheer beauty on a plate. One of the best farm to table experiences. Spread across lush greenery and set in a beautiful environment. We picked the front table near the chef prep table and could see chefs operating in a well coordinated way to present pure art on the plate and every dish was scrumptious. We had chosen the 5 course lunch experience. Will definitely be there for the 10 course dinner soon.

It’s not just food but art! We were served a variety of dishes with great vegetarian options over a 5 course meal! Food is made with fresh produce and everything has it’s purpose on the plate. It was value for money and is a great experience for special occasions! We sat at the chef’s table where you get to see them plate all the courses. Along with that they ensure it’s an immersive experience! Would recommend booking online in advance. They also gave us a tour of their farm where they grow the produce.

Went for our anniversary dinner and it turned out to be nothing short of a 2.5 hour performance art. The dishes, story telling, presentation, service, setting, attention to detail - it was just perfection. One of the, if not the best, dining experiences in Bangalore. They have a different menu every week based on seasonality and availability of ingredients. It's a 10 course tasting menu with the perfect portion size to make you satiated at the end. The 3 chefs were amazing hosts and genuinely interested in the feedback and sharing their stories. Coming to the food, every bite is an explosion of tastes - more like exercising your taste buds in unconventional ways. I will definitely be going back. They have a byob policy as well.

A much anticipated visit to Farmlore after hearing so much about it from my friend. I love the concept and the aspiration that they have to increase the dining standards in Bangalore. Education in any form takes a while to achieve and I do appreciate the efforts they have made to do it. Ambiance: + perfect for the setting. Place was comfortable without being ostentatious. I like the simplicity that is reflected in the surrounds and also in the cuisine. - there were quite a few small flies that kept flying around the dishes. Service: + on site, it was efficient and unobtrusive. - I have an onion intolerance and to contact me via WhatsApp (my number is not local) which I stated in the booking form which I had booked about 5 days before. I was told upon arrival that they had been trying to reach me on the phone all day to tell me they cannot make an exception for my intolerance and I could only eat 4 dishes out of 10 if I wanted to go ahead. I was slightly annoyed because I was already on site and the alternative of missing out 6 dishes but having paid full price was not a good option to me. It would have been good to contact me via email (which is also on the booking form if they really could not get me on WhatsApp) to let me know so that I had the option of cancelling. Food: Execution of techniques were good but flavours could be better. Some dishes were hit and miss. I felt the pork belly could have been cut into more bite sized pieces given that the knife to cut the meat wasn’t exactly suited for cutting it. But I really enjoyed the alcoholic gummies which was intense in flavour and paired perfectly with dark chocolate Overall, it was a good experience and I believe that they will get better. Bangalore needs this creativity and chefs who are passionate enough to want to bring up the level. I would def like to come back again in a few months to try and see the progress. Thank you for the meal and hard work chefs!

So we finally got there after a lot of hiccups - they don’t allow late entries and we were asked to turn back the first time since we were late, so be there on time. Now coming to the food; It was a full theatre - the taste was amazing, presentation was world class and loved their hospitality through and through. It’s definitely one of its kind of experience in India, certainly at par to a Michelin star (not that Michelin star is the standard, but no other familiar way to praise). They specialise in using locally sourced ingredients and they even tell you where they source them from. It is by default a non vegetarian coursed menu and you can specify your dietary restrictions at the time of booking for them to consider that into account. We had a 10 course meal and we were full by the 6-7 course. The menu changes every week and we’d love to go back there another time!

It would be unfair to call Farmlore a restaurant . It is a mind blowing , immersive experience where cooking, plating and serving dishes is elevated to the rank of Performing Arts . Spread across 2 hours 30 mins , the 10 course tasting menu is prepared fresh , course by course ; each served with a short discourse about the ingredients and the innovative ( futuristic) cooking method employed to create it . None of the dishes are like anything eaten before and fittingly, none have a name . Flavours and tastes ,subtle and distinct. The Menu changes every day depending on what produce is available locally right then. The philosophy is “rediscovering “Locavore” traditions, cultures and its connection to our Mother Earth” , the aim being ‘sustainable gastronomy’. The bubbly young Chefs were ready to chat and show us around their kitchen . (Their specially designed wood-fired stove and oven have witty personal names that are chuckle-worthy ) . Distance from City notwithstanding , this unique dining experience was absolutely enjoyable and memorable. Kudos, Team Farmlore !

Outstanding place! Michelin star experience with a great atmosphere. The food portions are immaculately crafted and presented while being absolutely delectable! Worth every bit of the money you pay! Kudos to Chefs Johnson Ebenezer and Maithrayee, as well as Jr Sous Chef, Avinash and the other staff for a super experience!
