I always lean to any place that offers vegetarian leaf meals or baale yele oota as it's called here. Having tasted quite a bit of North Karnataka cuisine around the city, this place appealed to me in terms of serving a variety of items aka Uttara Karnataka style.
Rather than describe each and every dish I'll keep it short in this review. ..besides one can write an essay when describing items served meals on leaf because there's usually so many of them!
WHAT STOOD OUT: jolada roti with ghee and sprouts playa.. Piping hot and soft. Really good.
The chutney pudis and red chutney which was dynamite
Salad /Pachadi
Rasam
Buttermilk
Items are all fresh. The person serving me was swift and efficient. I dint eat the holige because for me it’s a meal in itself!
WHAT COULD DO WITH IMPROVEMENT: The ennegai..the brinjal specialty...it's got to be spicy and reddish brown. Sambar was also too thin for my liking.
However, what could really do with improvement is the path leading up to the restaurant...the lift (elevator) looked old and rickety so I took the staircase. The area was dirty, grimy with paan stained walls. By the time I reached the restaurant it put one off relishing my lunch.. seriously..truly awful.
The restaurant itself was clean with spacious seating arrangements.
Service was prompt. Not very expensive for the location and items.
Would I go again? Not to this outlet but may try the same one in another area. They are more of these across the city.
Would I recommend to others....one time try. Nothing to rave about.
