One of the oldest restaurant in Guwahati. Should try fried Jira rice with chicken butter masala. I also tried American Chopsuey. The food is ok if not the best. They should renovate.
I remember coming since my childhood days. Old place in panbazar. They cn expand the interiors n cn improvise a bit. Abt the food to b honest i always hve their famous chicken mughlai paratha. I dont want n can not imagine eating something else thr. I think thats their special signature dish. Taste is the same n served with the same things 2piece of onion 2pc of cucumber n little aloo bhaji. Bt this time they hve added a green chilli mustard pickle. Chckn mughlai paratha is a mst try thr.
We ordered dal fry, aloo matar, plain rice, butter chicken gravy, hakka chowmein. Hakka Chowmein is pretty ordinary in comparison to price. There was very few pieces of chicken in it. Dal was tasty. Aloo matar was excellent in taste. In butter chicken they used color which i didn't like. There was 4 big pieces of chicken in the gravy
The place I grew up eating. Giving it 4stars for just the memories I had , even now I get food from here almost quite often. I enjoyed a lot of their items from the Chicken mughlai parantha to the Mixed chowmein *one of the most popular item* and many many more. Their food used to quite popular around the entire panbazar and nearby locatilies from a long time till date. From being a kiddo to a adult now I still enjoy their food a lot. Yeah they do mess up but hardly like once in a blue moon but overall m always satisfied.
Do try it 👍
Friday it was and we got a empty place. Nothing to speak of Ambience just imran khan songs playing from the speakers. Staff were helpful. Now coming to food we ordered Tandoori Roti and Chicken Tikka Masala. The pieces of chicken were smaller than other outlets and only 2-3 pieces were decent size others were quite small. Gravy however was tasting quite good and quantity was good for the price. The Rotis were hot n fluffy and properly cooked, nothing to complain. I liked their chilly mustard pickle which was complementary. Overall decent place and food.
I had read great reviews of this place and this doesn't disappoint at all. Being sunday lunch the place looked full but reservation did help us.
A combination of delicious food with warm hospitality is what is the hallmark of Sunflower. The ambience of this place is so quirky and vintage at the same time.
Now coming to the food, I must say that it is really good.The food was indeed delectable and that was yum. We had ordered veg fried rice, chilli chicken, chicken shahi korma and chicken cutlet. The quality of food is excellent. Chilli chicken was so satisfying to the taste buds! The taste is fantastic and you just cannot have enough of this! Most importantly each and every dish is presented in an extremely innovative manner. Doesn't matter what you order as everything is fresh and full of flavour.
Lastly, i was forgetting this but mention of this must . Their washrooms, aaah they were super dirty !! That's basic no ? So overall I'll give 3 stars to this place.
Overall , as per me , pretty average place.
Thanks for reading and don't forget to follow :)

Small place may be but the foods are tasty...

One of the oldest place in panbazar. It is also said to be the canteen for the students of Cotton and Handique College. I love the food they serve with a balanced price on their menu. I have lot of memories spending in this restaurant.
This place is a big hit among the students.It serves a good wide range of indian and chinese items.The menu is pocket friendly.The food is also worth the money.The quantity served is quite decent.I tried butter nun,chicken do pyaza and liver fry.The chicken was rightly made with the right amount of juicyness on the inside yet properly cooked.They served a good quantity of liver fry which was fried to the right amount.Overall a good experience.
Cheap and Delicious Food at one place.
What I love here is Butter Nan and Chicken Do Pyaza.
It's amazing!

The food is good and pocket friendly. I hate the chairs in there, I fell from one once. Other than that, its really good. Loved the mughlai paratha there. It is awesome. Fried rice and chicken items are also worth trying.
One of the oldest and famous restraunt...It was and lso still it is famous in the college students....As the colleges are nearby students used to celebrate here itself but because of opening of so many restaurants, Its getting a tough competition.... fried rice chilli chicken, butter chicken, chowmein, spring roll,cutlet are some of the famous item of here..

Very good food try out the soup and chow too tasty and yes quality and quantity is good pocket friendly and one of the most oldest outlet old is gold
One of oldest restaurant of Guwahati where I ve visited may be more than 100 times..Same food ..Same quality..Pocket friendly..But they need to improve..May be a facelift of the place.. Little upgrad in menu and taste enhencement..Else there are hardly few takers now of their food..
One of the oldest restaurant in town.the food quality is not the same as it was before. The chowmeins were a bit popular. Chinese portions are the dish which you can try here
The unusually high rating might surprise a lot of people, but this place has nostalgia seeped into my memories. Many get-togethers, many dates and many random evening snacks were had at this place, it seemed so welcoming that even now whenever I visit Guwahati, and if I pass by Panbazar or Cotton College, I go inside and order at least one cup of coffee.
The food can be made better, the prices reflect the menu and food well. Given a choice over another place, I would still choose Sunflower.
One of the all time fav places of the area, the place serves good Chinese food. I just love the gravy chowmein served there and also, the chicken cutlet. The sitting is good and cosy.
It is one of the oldest food outlets in guwahati but it was discovered lately by me.. the menu offers a lot of items to choose from which you may not find in other restaurants.. and it hasnt lost all its charm at all though quite old and not so good in terms of interiors but the food is nice.. I'm also surprised to see poor ratings for this outlet..
This is one of the oldest joints of Guwahati, so I have heard from almost all my uncles and aunties. But this was my first ever visit there. Entering the restaurant did give a shady kind of a feel. But you can't judge a book by its cover. The service made up for it and the food portions, most definitely did. The mutton noodles were yum. And the chilly chicken, though not quite traditional, did leave a mark. The portions were huge. It was easy on the pockets too. But, although the food was good, it wasn't outstanding. I don't know if its quality has deteriorated over the years. The place exudes an old school charm, so brownie points for that. Overall, I'll give a thumbs up to this joint and would go back again!
This is one of the oldest resturant onecof the best place to try mughlai .Lots of memories with this resturant anyone visit this place must try chicken tikka masala with butter nan
This place has stood the test of time....have been visiting this place since my childhood days though the food is pretty much standard there but I still like the place only because of the memories associated with it.
Must tries from this place the chicken pakoras, chilly chicken and the spring rolls...
Discovered this place thanks to the other day. The establishment was split, with comfortable dining space, albeit poorly lit. The staff wasn't the promptest in the world, but good enough for getting food coming on the tables at a satisfactory rate.
Food was great in the taste department, but leaves you wanting in terms of plating. However, this place came across to me as one that focuses more on the taste, quality and (thankfully for students), quantity of food over looks.
Should the restaurant owners decide to spruce up the interiors and provide better lighting to uplift the general ambiance, this will be a go to for anyone near panbazaar.
Sunflower is one legendary restaurant in Guwahati & it still maintains it's charm. The spring rolls and chowmein are amazing. Sunflower is always packed with people during lunch hours. Good service

This place holds special memories for me.. I mean how can a Cottonian ever miss this place?? From b'day parties to friendship day, it has been a place for celebration. The prices on the menu is still balanced with time. Even after 10 years, their chicken Hakka gravy noodles still tastes the same & I so love it.. Their chicken-do-pyaza is also one of the tasty dishes in their offering n don't miss the Mughlai parathas if it's still in the menu ?
Very nice to visit when super hungry ????.
Its food is good in taste. However i visit here for its worthily pricing of food, quality as well as quantity.
Situated just nearby the Cotton college compound, this place is not some food joint you should go to taste some good food, but if you are in Panbazar, or visiting Cotton college (or the famous Panbazar book stalls, or Meghdoot Bhawan, or anything within 100m radius) and want to grab some quality food at a normal price, this place is worth a visit.
A very old restaurant, this place has existed for ages, and like most other old places, the quality of this restaurant too has dipped a little, but it is nothing to worry about, if your choice of food is good.
Ambience is fair enough. Service takes some time, at least half an hour, and can be termed below average. The price too is not too cheap, but average, resulting in a less Value for Money.
Personal recommendation: Chinese/chicken chopsuey, Chicken spring roll.
In brief:
Food: 3.5/5
Ambience: 3.5/5
Service: 3.5/5
Value for money: 4/5
Sunflower, my fellow foodies, is all about nostalgia. It is one the few restaurants in Guwahati & especially in Panbazaar, which foodies of the yore & present fondly recollect as one their favorites. It has truly stood the test of time & along with the nearby Reboti, remain one of the icons of Panbazaar.
Don't go looking for a peaceful meal-time ambience here as this place is almost always crowded in the meal hours & frequented by the students & office-goers, both for their taste & price. Service is alright, though due to the crowd, they take quite some time in actually serving you your order.
My absolute favorite here is the Chicken Tikka Masala. It can easily compete with the best in business. Having it with steamed rice is something i call Bliss. I have also had there Chinese items & always found them to be quite good. Though i must admit they have had a dip in their taste in the last few years (which was also testified by Mom ).
Statutory Warning - By all means, avoid their Toilets. You will loose all your appetite. You have been warned. ;-)
This must be one of the most popular places to go for a date for the college couples around there. But that didn't deter us single people who frequented the place whenever we were near Paanbazar and were hungry and not "thirsty" as usually we are. The place is 'cozy', maybe the main reason for the crowd of couples that are attracted to the place like the sun for a 'sunflower'. The service is a bit slow, which is also a great thing for the couples. But the food is pretty good. It's better to try the Indian dishes because you find very few small restaurants serving good Chinese items in Guwahati.

It's a very old place for college students to hangout to begin with. But it definitely requires improvement in some areas. They have very few people so it takes really long for them to serve you. People are little aged so they are not quick enough to attend you. The inside of the restaurant should also be decorated and well maintained. Food is average. Thank you.
A very good place for a family and friends get together or reunion! Love their biriyani, paneer kadhai and mughlai paratha!
Good food at reasonable price.
The restaurant is family friendly.It is also spacious and maintains proper hygiene.
They provide quite ample amount of food which is quite reasonable according to the price.Had a good time.
Old but well maintained restaurant. Food is good. Quantity is reasonable. A good family restaurant

One of the oldest restaurant established here in Guwahati. From 1981 till today this restaurant has served generations. Food quality is top notch. Butter chicken and nun, Biryani are the best combination to try here. Food delivery is fairly quick and the staff response is good. Quantity served is substantial and it will surely fulfill a hungry soul. Highly recommended
Delicious, quality food at reasonable price and quantity! 100% recommended 👍
