The most reliable Place in the neighbourhood of Pondicherry university in terms of taste and ambience ..price is little more than the nearby places but it is worth it! The must try dishes are , Biryani, Al Fahm chicken, Barbeque Chicken , The Chicken Starters, Shawrma, Rolls, and in dessert they have all kinds and ranges of icecreams and sundaes! You can order and enjoy at home too!

The best eating joint in Kalapet region of Pondicherry, authentic Malabar and Arabian dishes. Purely non-vegetarian's delight but then there are enough Vegetarian options. Top off with a lovely collection of Sundaes and shakes. extremely light on the pocket too. Can get crowded but then that is why it is good.

There is one thing that I love like crazy is the barbecue chicken with butter nan... I didn't like the Chicken curry. Noodles are good too and Shawarma can be taken into consideration as well.. The ice creams are a delight.

Awesomeness!!!!... Really good spot near Pondicherry university. If ur a student or traveler on budget its the best place. Not at all pricey and does not compromise on quality as well. Their tandoors are really good. Their desserts menu is a must try. Have really great faloodas and sundaes. Good place to hangout with your frndz. The service also a very promt. They also have an outlet in Pondicherry city it seems. Very friendly staff.

No words to explain about tandoori and roti items really amazing. Specially about icecream and shakes which is good one to close your diet with mouth filled off sweets and cool stomach.

It's a small little place. It's a refined dhaba. The food is not particularly great. It's fresh and tasty enough. The prawn and the mutton masala have the exact same gravy! The mutton and prawn was nicely cooked but since the gravy was the same there was no flavor of either in the gravy. The tandoori chicken was good and the accompanying mint chutney, picked cabbage and mayo were nice. We also got a plate of chicken 65. Very small portions but tasty. Loved the ginger and plain lemon juices. Overall, good place for a quick cost effective meal. Nothing fancy. Not bad.

It is located outside Pondicherry university and run by Keralites. The place serves quite good north Indian menus in the desert actually. Their grilled chicken is awesome and must try. The varieties of ice cream is also to be tasted.

This is the most popular student hangout. Its situtated close to pondicherry uni and engineering college. This is one of the closest restaurants with affordable prices for student. Their grilled chicken and roti are highly recommended. The service is quick and friendly.

Best known for the Shawarmas and the Kerala paratas. The place is at an ideal location for the university and the colleges nearby. But runs out of food. So don't go late

The place doesn't seem like much and the service is quite bad... They make you wait a bit more than expected.. But the grilled or tandoori chicken is worth the wait! The chicken is totally gorgeous and it melts in your mouth... Their dessert collection is pretty impressive and mostly comprises of sundaes... You'll have about almost a 100 different combinations to try out from.

For vegetarians the food is okay!! I tried Cream of veg soup, Paneer Kadai, Mushroom kadai, Mushroom Paneer masala, Paneer Butter masala, Butter Naan, Butter Roti (not mentioned but it's tandoori), Veg noodles, mixed veg, Shahi paneer, Dal, Plain Rice, Mixed Veg Fried Fice, mushroom chilli, paneer tikka and Gobi Manchurian from here. Don't order Shahi paneer, mushroom chilli, and cream of veg soup from here plus don't order Shahi paneer too it's not Shahi paneer at all. Veg noodles I won't prefer to order again, not that worth. Paneer butter masala, ghee rice and mixed veg fried rice were good and the rest of the dishes were okay-ish. Prices are economic. 🚻🚾 Available βœ”οΈ Accepts card, UPI Payments. Ambience is also good. Crowded mostly with university students.

Ambiance of ground floor is good.The ambiance is of 1st floor is nice becaus it's somewhat less crowdy. . The taste of the food I took is good. This is the best restaurant for Barbeque Chicken dushes. We had food multiple times in this restaurant and food is in pocket friendly budgets. The taste of Malabar biryani is awesome with properly cooked chicken and mutton. Although the roganjosh taste was different from actual dish. Others item is good in taste both veg and non-veg. The best barbeque πŸ’πŸ–πŸ”₯ dish is Chicken Alfaham with honey garlic. Paneer and masala kulcha ara also very tasty. Banana leaf also famous for their ICECREAM options. The provide nearly 150 types of Icecream Dishes with modifications. Decorations and taste of icecream is fabulous. Best restaurant in Pondicherry University area for student as well as guests.

We ordered fish biriyani. The piece we got was vanjaram, which was unexpected at this price. Really good. We usually order thalassarey Dum biriyani which is super good in taste. Must try. All the banana leaf outlets in Pondicherry are good.

Generally, this restaurant is the best for ice-cream and Arabian cuisine in the area. This restaurant is quite famous in Kalapet for its taste and hygiene. And price is also very reasonable and affordable. I would give 5 stars if the ambience of the restaurant was bright and scenic rather than being gloomy always through neon light.

This is a good place to get food. Slightly on the costlier side especially with GST but worth the value. One major downside is the service on the first floor at peak time ( which they could solve if a person other than the waiter goes down to pick up the food). The menu is not only rich with food items but also has a good selection of juices and ice-creams. Parking is a little tough if you are in a 4 wheeler.

It is a very popular restaurant among college goers. It is more of an adda for them. It is always fully packed. You need to wait at least 10 to 15 mins to get a table for yourself. Friendly staff. Food quality and quantity are good. The food is reasonably priced. Biryani seems to be the hot favourite food.
