"Dining at Karavalli in Bangalore felt like daylight looting. The food was below average, yet the prices were absurd—₹1700 for a chicken fry starter, ₹1300 for Achinga Mezhukku, and over ₹200 for a single appam that usually costs just ₹10–20. I’ve seen many restaurants and cafés in Bangalore that are far more worthy, with better food and ambience. Here, they only played traditional flute music throughout—maybe that’s what cost so high and expensive 😂. Honestly, I don’t understand why people waste their hard-earned money on such places that offer nothing worthwhile." I think the menu card shown here is old one. New menu card will make you shocked. Prices are unjustifiable for the food, service and ambience provided. If you need to taste kerala food, there are tons of restaurants to choose from. (Eg. Chef pilla restraunt. which itself is expensive yet atleast justifiable). I don't understand how some people give high ratings. I will never reccomend this restraunt. If you want to waste money simply come here.

As you walk towards the restaurant, you are transformed from the bustling urban street of Bengaluru to an oasis of nature tranquility. I have been here a couple of times. The food is amazingly delicious, especially seafood preparations. There are indoor tables as well as outdoor ones (mosquitoes and insects may interfere with your experience, though). Cozy seating with a luxury feel. Lastly, the service is a classic display of brilliant Taj hospitality - courteous, helpful, flawless. They ensure you have a great overall experience here.

We had a meal for 2 at the Karavalli, Taj Residency Road, Bengaluru. Served in a great ambience with lovely carnatic music, water falls in the background and in the open. We had the Head Chef Ramachandran who has been with the property for 20+ years explaining the ingredients used and the way it is made to some great service by Shanti who was always cheerful, and delivered outstanding service. Overall a very memorable experience.

Absolutely loved the experience at Karavalli! The food was delicious and authentic with rich coastal flavors. The staff was very attentive and polite, and the service was quick. The ambiance was calm and elegant — perfect for a relaxing meal. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Bengaluru!"

“I had an amazing experience at this hotel. The check-in was smooth, and the staff made me feel welcome right away. The room was spacious, clean, and had all modern amenities. The food was fresh and delicious with lots of variety. I also loved how peaceful and well-maintained the property was. Location is perfect, close to major attractions and easy to access. The hospitality was outstanding — the staff went out of their way to make sure I had everything I needed. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone visiting this city.”

“Karavalli is a beautiful and peaceful place that captures the charm of South India’s coastal heritage. Surrounded by greenery and designed like a traditional Mangalorean home, it gives a warm, earthy, and relaxing vibe. Perfect for family dinners or special occasions — you’ll feel like you’re dining in nature while still being in the heart of Bengaluru!”

Everything about this restaurant is splendid. The location is beautiful and the vibes are peaceful. The presentation of the dishes is just as beautiful as how they taste. If you’re in the area definitely check it out!

Rim Naam at the Oberoi Hotel, Bangalore, provides a peaceful oasis amidst the infamous chaos that is Bangalore traffic. The restaurant is located in a lovely landscaped garden... we actually walked through a mini rocky cave with an old fig tree atop!... and the dining area is on a charming stilted platform. The ambience transports one to a parallel universe of calm and quiet, and that for me is more than enough reason to visit this place. The food is good and the staff extremely genial and attentive. The prices are on the steeper side, but the portion size is enough for two, maybe more. I loved the starters more than the mains. And I would have loved a slightly wider range of mocktails. What impressed me most was the Rim Naam mandarin, an orange and chocolate mousse dessert. It's a feast for the eyes, and of the palate. Strongly recommend.

We visited Rim Naam for our anniversary dinner. The ambiance was lovely and made for a pleasant evening. We started with their signature veg platter, which was decent but didn’t quite deliver the “WOW” we were expecting in terms of flavor. The mocktails, however, were refreshing and enjoyable. For the main course, we had the red curry and Pad Thai noodles—both part of their signature offerings. While the presentation was nice, the taste was underwhelming, especially the red curry, which we've had better versions of at other places. It felt quite average considering the fine-dining expectations. We ended the meal with the Rim Naam special Mandarin dessert. Visually, it was stunning, but again, the taste didn’t quite match up. Overall, while the setting and service were pleasant, the food didn’t quite feel 5-star or memorable in terms of flavor. We were hoping for more standout dishes and a stronger Thai flavor profile.

The Thai Restaurant, nestled within The Oberoi Hotel in Bangalore, truly stands out as an exceptional dining destination. Its limited seating creates an intimate atmosphere, making advance booking essential. The ambience is a major highlight: stepping in feels like entering a tranquil oasis, with the restaurant tucked beneath a canopy of dense trees and beside a serene pond, offering a wonderfully rustic and almost magical setting. As for the food, the set menu is not only incredibly filling but also a culinary delight. Each dish bursts with authentic flavors, showcasing an amazing taste profile that consistently impresses. It's an unforgettable experience for both the senses and the palate.

Nestled within the serene and green setting of The Oberoi, Bengaluru, Rim Naam offers an exquisite escape into the world of fine Thai dining. Surrounded by lotus ponds and lush landscapes, the ambiance is as breathtaking as the food. With its elegant open-air seating and tranquil atmosphere, it creates a truly immersive dining experience that transports guests to the heart of Thailand while remaining rooted in the charm of Bengaluru. The culinary offerings at Rim Naam are nothing short of exceptional. The menu is a thoughtfully curated selection of authentic Thai dishes—from aromatic Tom Yum soups to spicy Pad Thai noodles, rich Massaman curries, and perfectly steamed jasmine rice. Every dish is a burst of flavor, showcasing fresh ingredients and traditional techniques. The chefs demonstrate great attention to detail, ensuring each plate is visually stunning and true to its roots. Service at Rim Naam is impeccable, striking the perfect balance between warm hospitality and professionalism. The staff is knowledgeable, courteous, and eager to make your visit memorable. Whether it's a romantic dinner, a special celebration, or a quiet evening out, Rim Naam stands out as a luxurious and soulful Thai culinary destination in Bengaluru. K.vinoth

For us the most beautiful restaurant in Bengaluru. The staff is welcoming and taking care of you. Stanzin was very nice with us. The food is delicious, it reminds us of Thailand. You want to eat everything on the menu. We highly recommend it!

Delicious food, great service and calming atmosphere. We ordered grilled tiger prawns and stir fry seafood. The prawns and rest of the seafood was perfectly cooked to give a soft juicy experience. Himani and the entire staff there were extremely welcoming and attentive. The soft oriental music added charm to the soothing ambience. To top it off, Himani offered Thapthim krop on the house. It was indeed one of the best tasting Thai desserts I have had. I’d highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who is looking for exquisite Thai food coupled with equally exquisite dining experience.

We were celebrating our wedding anniversary at oberio- was a pleasant evening. Food was lovely- however service was a little area of attention. The table we were on was rocking. The plates were dusty n dirty (open space) later they even forgot to serve us one of the chicken main coarse dish.. the small mango mousse cake was amazing and so was that tiramisu.

Visited Tandoor recently for a team lunch and had an excellent experience! The food was delicious with a perfect balance of flavor and presentation. The staff were attentive and courteous, ensuring everything was served just right. The ambience added to the charm — cozy, elegant, and ideal for both casual dining and special occasions. Highly recommend this place at MG road for anyone looking to enjoy good food, great service, and a relaxing atmosphere! They have Valet parking, much needed in this area 👍

I visited tandoor literally after 15 years. I have had an biryani obsession after trying their Chicken biryani back when I was a kid. Ohh man I have to tell you I still remember that moment, it was the best mouth melting Chicken experience I have had.🤤 So i recently decided to visit it with my family , it was my birthday too. We are hardcore meat lovers so we tried there best of best offerings. Honestly it was just an pleasurable experience. The boneless mutton ran with cheese garlic naan hit the spot perfectly. The tandoor platter paired elegantly with their green yoghurt chutney. Mutton biryani was delicious and the basmati rice was lightly spiced and was perfect in every bite. If you wanna feast like a king 👑 , this is your spot. You can further elevate your customer experience by training your staff in a way that they are vigilant about customers needs. Thanks for the amazing food and memories 😊

I would give this restaurant a 0. I ordered food from Tandoor and the butter chicken was stale. There was a cockroach in the food. I would not eat here ever again. What’s worse is I spoke to the hotel manager and he showed no interest in resolving this issue. He put the blame squarely on Swiggy. Let’s be clear Swiggy doesn’t cook or pack the food, they are only aggregators/delivery guys. I would never eat here again. Very disappointing!

Excellent ambience and service. Truly north Indian style food. Recommended

Food is delicious. Serving super fast, calm interior. Fair prices

Very nice very peaceful testy food nice behavior of staff include all make Supeb time

I've been a regular at this Bangalore establishment for more than 2 decades . What kept me returning with family and business contacts was the food. Classic north indian and mughlai fare . Reliably consistent quality and taste . Quietly polite service and offcourse the old world charm of the decor and ambience. Several wonderful meals and memories of eating here . Sadly my most recent visit here was , in one word, disappointing. The establishment seems to have lost its mojo. Lackadaisical service and the food - pathetic. The tandoori prawns were leather like and were returned . The seekh kabab and the fish tikka ...were edible but uninspiring. All these dishes served bare ...with no accompaniments , salad etc. The main course of rice and daal was passable , nothing special. Not a satisfactory meal and a huge come down from historical experience. Perhaps the kitchen staff has changed and not for the better . Several better options exist around the MG Road area

I visited Lupa with my friends over the weekend, and I must say, I loved the vibes. The place is spacious, with plenty of seating options both indoors and outdoors, making it perfect for any type of gathering. We arrived around 3:45 PM, unfortunately just after the kitchen had closed, so we didn’t get to sample the food, but we made up for it with some Red and White Sangria, both of which were excellent. The highlight of our experience was definitely Maimei, one of the staff members. He was incredibly courteous and even brought us some peanuts to snack on while we relaxed. I’m definitely coming back to try the food, but the only downside was the drink prices. At ₹950 for a single Sangria, it felt a little on the steeper side. Other than that, I had a fantastic time and would definitely recommend it!

My recent dinner at Lopa Bangalore was a truly exceptional experience. From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was vibrant and the interior design was nothing short of amazing. The food was equally impressive. We started with the Turkish lamb chops kebab, which came with labne sauce and was absolutely mind-blowing tender, flavorful, and perfectly spiced. The cracking pork (I guess that’s the name) was highly recommended and did not disappoint; it was executed flawlessly. A special shout-out must go to their homemade gelato: forget the other gelato shops in Bangalore, this in-house dessert is far superior and the perfect end to a great meal. Highly recommend!

Listed in Conde Nast Traveller’s Top 31 Restaurants in India (2024) LUPA is a stunning fine-dining experience tucked right next to the MG Road metro station. You wouldn’t guess what awaits you from the outside—but step in, and you’re instantly transported. With its beautifully designed courtyard (complete with a central water fountain), stylish indoor seating, and a cozy mezzanine for private celebrations, it’s the kind of place you’ll want to return to—especially for a special day. The atmosphere is sophisticated yet warm, and the service absolutely lives up to the setting. The staff were prompt, polite, and incredibly knowledgeable—guiding us through the expansive menu and suggesting some exceptional dishes and drinks. They even changed our plates and cutlery after every dish—such attention to detail! Appetizers - Greek Mini Pies: These came piping hot and fresh, with flaky pastry and a beautiful filling of zucchini, feta, dill, and parsley. Paired with the orange-fennel marmalade and cashew tahini, it was a bite of Greece done right. - Eggplant Speducci: Surprisingly the star of the evening. Miso and chimichurri together on tender eggplant, topped with almond crumble—unlike anything we’ve tasted. Main Course - Pressed Half Brick Chicken: Crispy, juicy, and so flavourful. The creamed mushrooms and crispy Tuscan potatoes on the side were perfection—honestly, the sides were good enough to be mains! - Wood-fired Chermoula Cauliflower: This was probably the only dish we didn’t enjoy as much—it felt a bit overdone with too many elements, though the pita was great. Dessert Key Lime Tart: Intricately made, beautifully presented, though a bit too tangy for our taste. Would have preferred a slightly more balanced tartness. Drinks (A must-try if you're into creative cocktails!) Trastevere: Truffle-infused gin with parmesan vermouth? Bold but brilliant. Okinawa Summer: Light, citrusy, with a sweet twist. Refreshing. Curry & Smoke: A standout—curry leaf in a drink? Surprisingly aromatic and smooth. PB&J: Peanut butter bourbon and raspberry—unexpected but works so well, and even comes topped with a PB treat shaped like a peanut. The St. Germain: A more classic blend—floral and pleasant but didn’t stand out. Black Mirror: Dessert in a glass—cacao, coconut, cold brew and a nitro dalgona float. Bold and delicious. Price Point: Yes, it’s expensive—cocktails are around ₹1200 and most dishes ₹600+. But for a special occasion, the quality, service, and overall experience really justify the price. If you're looking for a place to celebrate or simply want to treat yourself to one of India’s best culinary experiences, LUPA is well worth the splurge.

My son took us out for lunch for my birthday, he loves dining at LUPA so I will reserve my comments to two aspects:- Music- LUPA has no dance floor (if it does we did not notice not it's a disco, dance place or a similar joint) so why was the music deafining?? At such places one visits with family or friends and need to talk and not shout at each other? The music gave us a headache. Service - A high-end restaurant and the Serving staff were ignorant about the dishes and it's accompaniments?? Fish &Chips, we have had this dish in London, all over UK, Australia, New Zealand and the fish was always accompanied by chips but LUPA Staff educates us by saying "Fish and Chips actually had no chips"?????? We had an excellent family time would have been better if the music was soft.

The Tuscan-courtyard style, marble fountains, Art-Deco touches, lush interiors and stone + glass elements are beautifully done.  The layout—with private and semi-private zones, mezzanine spaces, special open kitchens, etc.—gives options for different moods (date night, group dinners, special occasion).  The menu is ambitious and inventive: classic European foundations with modern twists. Dishes like the pressed half-brick chicken, corzetti pasta with wild mushroom ragu, creative charcuteries, and a robust wine cellar are major pluses.  Also, thoughtful touches—using locally sourced or well-curated ingredients, house-made gelatos, bespoke cheeses, interesting cocktails—go a long way in boosting the overall dining experience.

Ten of us went for pre-diwali family lunch. We booked online and received a confirmation email. Immediately thereafter, we received a call asking us to pay 5K to confirm the reservation as it was a Sunday, which we did. The person booking also told us that if we were taking courtyard seating, we should be prepared for the loud music (which was the case). Overall, reservation process was responsive. We ordered a hell lot (35K worth of just food orders for nine people and a child) so tough to go through each dish, but it ranged from fine (pizzas, most desserts) through good (duck, to great (dark chocolate and burnt orange mousse, lamb shoulder barbacoa which is slow roasted lamb, a slightly spicy pasta dish whose name I forget). Only disappointment were the soups - the asparagus soup was tastes of nothing (not in terms of bad taste, but very flat taste in the manner of a soup that you would have if you were told it was health food, but not for its taste!) Service was efficient even when the place got busy for Sunday brunch though they disappointed at the last moment when one person's hot chocolate came 10-15 mins after everyone's coffees were served. Some people would feel that at 3-3.5K per person without alcohol, everything needs to hit the high notes. But in a restaurant which has such a huge menu, that would be wrong to expect. As I mentioned above, it plays in the average and above range. With the ambience and the variety it offers, great place for larger groups and families where everyone will find something for their interest. A fine dine restaurant with a one page menu, that gets everything perfect maybe a better option for a smaller group or a couple looking for a cozier place with exceptional food.

So, listen up! There's this place called Lupa. Right on MG Road in Bengaluru; and oh my god, it’s lush. Like, you walk in and immediately feel like you’ve accidentally stumbled into someone’s Tuscan holiday home, but posher. It’s in this massive space (11,000 square feet, if you’re into measurements and stuff), with actual carved fountains, a wine cellar that’s basically a bougie basement, and a mezzanine for private dining: you know, for when you’re feeling all mysterious and VIP. Now, the vibe? Honestly, it’s like Europe flew over and gave Bengaluru a big, stylish kiss on both cheeks. There’s grand staircases (hello, dramatic entrances), a gorgeous outdoor deck, a literal gelato lab (yes, really), a salumeria (fancy word for meat things), and these open pantries that just scream, “Look at us, we’re fabulous and we know it.” Food-wise, it’s like a culinary catwalk. You’ve got Mediterranean and Italian classics doing a little twirl, but with a twist. Keep banging on about the Salumi Platter, Burrata with tomato oil (ugh, yes please), and this Pressed Half Brick Chicken which sounds like it could knock your ex out and taste amazing. And the drinks? Unreal. There’s one called the Notorious F.I.G. (fig bourbon, Campari, orange bitters — very gangster-chic), and another that’s basically a cocktail version of melon, cheese and ham. I mean, who thinks of that?! Geniuses, that’s who. But let me tell you now, this place ain’t cheap. No two-for-one fishbowl mojitos here. It’s more “special night out in a dress you can’t spill on” than “quick bite after work in your Crocs.” You’re definitely paying for the whole moment, darling — the food, the glam, the drama, the lighting, everything. So, if you’re in the mood to treat yourself, or if you need somewhere swanky to take your new crush (or your boss, or your mum), Lupa’s your girl. Just don’t expect quiet whispers and dim corners. This place is loud, proud, and meant to be seen. In short? It’s not dinner. It’s a bloody event. #bar #bengaluru #chandra #chetan #dining #european #gandhi #italian #lupa #mahatma #manu #mediterranean #private #rampal

We dined here three weeks ago as a large group. The food was delicious. Service was nice. Feedback regarding food and service were promptly addressed, we truly appreciate that. We loved the ambience. But one major let down was that the entire family became sick after dining here, we are suspecting the water to be the reason (We chose in-house water which is supposed to be filtered).

A luxurious ambience with a great view on the 17th floor of leela bhartiya city. This Indian restaurant is Uber luxe and suave The service was absolutely fantastic. Coming to the food we opted for the nonveg set menu and it was superlative The appetizer chaat and the nonveg starters were spot on. The main course was delectable with both the chicken and mutton well cooked and superb assortment of rotis The desserts and biryani were wonderful Better wear loose fitting clothing for this

Very beautiful ambience, located on the 17th floor, has both an inside seating arrangement and an outside rooftop lounge setting. My preference will always be the rooftop setting. The food is excellent, especially the Nalli Nihari is to kill for. The desserts are brilliant as well. Hats off to Chef Mr. Farman Ali for the supremely delectable food. Also, many thanks to Mr. Virender Yadav for the wonderful hospitality. Must Visit Place with friends and family!!!!

This place offers luxury dining in every sense. The experience starts from the locality of Bhartiya City to The Leela palace hotel to the 17th floor where yhe restaurant is. They offer open air plus closed door dining option. The experience includes stunning panoramic view, great staffs who would take care of their guests, dining set-up (slow music in the backdrop) and most importantly authentic food delicacies. This can be a great choice for any dining plan with families or friends. Must try: Multani Seekh Kabab (4 pcs)

We chose this restaurant for our wedding anniversary this year. The environment is very comfortable, the service attitude is very good, and the food is very satisfactory. It is very suitable for family dinners. Most of us ordered the restaurant's specialties and desserts. Finally, A cake was given to us to celebrate. We had a pleasant and memorable dinner.

Beautiful Place.. Awesome Ambiance.. Amazing Soft Music.. Above all the Food.. Just Woww.. Awesome North Indian Cuisine. Order anything and U will not be disappointed.. Finger Licking Food. 100% Recommended..

Flavourful food in a 17th floor restaurant with great views. Expensive, but good. The set menus are very good even if they are pricey.

Loya at Taj West End delivers an exceptional North Indian dining experience that effortlessly blends tradition with luxury. The ambience is elegant and warm, making it a perfect choice for both special occasions and relaxed evenings. Every dish tells a story — from their creative chaats to flavourful North Indian classics, the ingredients and spices shine through. The staff are genuinely attentive, happily offering recommendations and ensuring every detail is taken care of. The overall experience feels thoughtfully curated, and while it’s definitely a premium outing, the food quality and attentive service make it well worth it. Looking forward to visiting again soon!

Went there due to it being 2nd top restaurant on the list of TripAdvisor for Bangalore and was not disappointed. I was early so I was the only one there, and the staff were super polite and I went with the dishes they recommend and they were all fantastic! And the hotel surroundings are just beautiful!

We had a great experience dining here recently. The daal ki chat was amazing, and as was chicken and prawn kebabs. The desserts especially rabri with boondi was quite good. They have a wide range of innovative cocktails and mocktails, which we could try few of. The whiskey cocktails were amazing. Finally, it has the iconic Taj service which was consistent with what you'd expect from only Taj :)

Not going to say anything about the food except 1) Go to Loya; you won’t be disappointed. 2) Don’t go if you are a boring the dal makhni/ butter chicken sort of person 🤣. Food blew me away especially the lamb in the roasted walnut shell gravy. Unusual delicious flavours. Excellent service. The mukhwas at the end was an unusual concept. Taj west end is lovely and Loya is a beautiful setting.

Had a wonderful experience at Taj Loya! The ambiance is warm and inviting, and the staff is extremely courteous and attentive. The food was flavorful and authentic, with every dish prepared to perfection. Service was prompt, and the overall vibe made it a great place to relax and enjoy a good meal. Highly recommend it for anyone looking for a quality dining experience.

Had an average food experience at Taj West End, Bangalore. While the staff was prompt and available to assist, they seemed to lack basic training — one even came from behind unexpectedly to pour water, and similar lapses in serving etiquette were noticed. Disappointed with the overall experience, especially given the brand’s reputation.

Loya at Taj West End in Bengaluru offers an exceptional dining experience where the food is not only beautifully presented but also incredibly flavorful. The ingredients are fresh and of the highest quality, and the chefs skillfully use traditional Indian cooking techniques to enhance the natural flavors of each dish. The service at Loya is equally impressive, with attentive and knowledgeable staff who are more than happy to make recommendations and answer any questions. Dining at Loya is a true pleasure, combining exquisite cuisine with impeccable service.

Extremely disappointing. They have nothing gastronomy, the reason we went there and that’s what they have on their webpage. The 3 stars are just for the ambience and service. The “dateme” mocktail was good. The Arrabbiata penne was very spicy with a lot of sweet as well, we could not eat that. The dahi chat was little too sweet. The dirt cake was as the name suggests especially the dry cake crumbled tasted really eggy. The tiramisu was frozen on top and was not like how tiramisu should taste. The manager told us Karnataka Govt has banned liquid nitrogen and a few other things wrt food safety, hopefully they will update their webpage soon with this info.

Pros: Farzi cafe offers fusion dishes and quirky takes on Indian cuisines. We tried quite a few starters and all of them were very interesting. We tried Dal chawal Arachini, Paneer Takatak Taco and Mac n cheese Pakoda bites. Located at a very happening UB city and the place really lits up during the night with great vibes. Cons: Rasmalai Tres Leches could’ve been better. It tasted way better last time I had it here. The service seemed a bit off but I’d not fret too much about it but definitely not the kind of promptness you’d expect for the price the place demands.

The place has a vibe. Ambience is basic but pretty good. Starters are delicious, presentation of the food is really good. We had butter chicken bao, butter garlic prawn, strawberry mojito, chicken Tikka biriyani. Biriyani was not that good. This place is inside UB City mall. Visit during day time is recommended if you want to roam around and click pictures.

Was here to try out their all new Farzified menu and loved all the dishes and cocktails. As expected every dish had a quintessential twist with a burst of flavours and great presentation. Must try their Corn soup topped with a spicy chivda and coriander oil, absolutely delicious. The galouti sliders were melt in mouth goodness. The brioche shahi tukda was rich and yumm!! The Farzitini was my choice of poison to beat the heat on a sultry noon.

This place has a pleasant ambience and the view of modern mini skyscrapers outside is a plus. The serve time is fast. Price is on higher sides and not all those fancy seats are as comfortable as they’re pretty. Now the taste, Food taste varied from good to very forgettable. Drinks were nice. Overall I had a decent experience

This was our second visit here.The cafe boasts a charming ambiance and a cozy setting, making it a potentially great spot for casual meet-ups. However, This time the food quality didn't quite match the inviting atmosphere. The dishes, while presented nicely, lacked flavor. While we were seated there the staff was cleaning the cealing lights which was diminishing the value of the ambience for the customer.they also went for a long huddle meet leaving us hanging for placing additional order.We had to walk up to the bar to request for the bill.on our first visit we went to the smoking area by the time we came back they had already cleared our table which had food and when questioned had no apology to offer. Tres leches lacked flavour and the desi noodles were bland.

Nice cafe serving Indian fusion cuisine with alcoholic drinks. The bar is good with a great selection of cocktails. The restaurant is open air with a cheerful ambience. The seating is good. Being in UB city, the views open towards the central fountain area and the terrace area facing the open air theatre. Bangalore weather being nice all year round, the evenings here are particularly nice. The food is really good too with a nice fusion of South and North Indian dishes. Overall a great place to chill at with anybody.

A nice, small Pan-Asian restaurant located in Indiranagar. For starters, we had Char Siu bao and Gochujang beef bao, which were both delicious. The charred beef ramen was fine. I felt the 'charred-ness' added a weird taste to the soup, but the rest of my family loved it. So, I guess it's just me. We also ordered the pork ribs and seafood flat rice noodles, which were also really good. The meat nicely peeled off the rib bones. Overall, the experience was nice, but the only letdown was the service. It was too slow, and they forgot to order/get our drinks. We had to wait for a long time. But we enjoyed the food and drinks at the restaurant.

Fatty Bao, Indiranagar is definitely a spot worth checking out! We tried the Wasabi Prawns – absolutely delicious, the Rameyon – loved the flavorful base (though the noodles could be better), and the Teriyaki Glazed Chicken Bao – simply outstanding. The ambience is cozy, service is excellent, and valet parking makes it super convenient. A must-visit for Asian cuisine lovers!

We tried their sushi, ramen, and bao. The food was decent but honestly just average in taste🙃 The baos were okay, nothing really stood out. For the price, it felt quite expensive for what was served. Overall, it’s a nice place to try once!!

The Fatty Bao is a great spot for a quiet and satisfying dinner, with a stylish and comfortable ambience that sets the tone for a relaxed evening. It’s my go-to place, and I always start with their signature Shrimp Tempura and Fried Eggplant Bao—both absolutely delicious and consistently well-made. The ramen here is also worth trying, rich in flavor and generously portioned. Their menu has a good mix of Asian-inspired dishes, perfect for sharing or enjoying solo. The service is prompt and courteous, and the pleasant interiors make it a great place to unwind over a good meal.

Had a wonderful experience at this restaurant! The service was absolutely exceptional, especially thanks to Hriday, who made us feel so welcome. The edamame, dim sum, and mushroom ramen were all delicious and perfectly prepared. To top it off, we were pleasantly surprised with an on-the-house dessert, which was equally delightful. Truly a memorable dining experience — highly recommended!

Undoubtedly the best ramen in town! Though the name Fatty Bao might lead you to focus just on the baos, don’t make that mistake—their ramen bowls are out of the world! The Pork Belly Ramen Bowl is my personal favorite—rich, flavorful, and incredibly satisfying. I’ve also tried the Mushroom Ramen Bowl when dining with vegetarian friends, and it’s equally delicious. The broth is deeply comforting and packed with flavor. The decor adds to the charm, making you feel like you’ve stepped into a cozy ramen shop somewhere in Japan—super cute and inviting! The baos are tasty too, though slightly on the pricier side. The cheesecake we tried didn’t quite meet our expectations, but the overall experience was still excellent. Special mention to the staff—the service is warm and attentive, and they take the time to explain each dish and answer any questions.

Found this place intersting with the reviews and what they offer on menu..and went on to try. To begin with the ambience wasn't great when we compare to aesthetically structured bangalore resturant now a days ..but honestly somewhere I knew this could be a hint that food ould be good as there were so many reviews and good rating . Started ordering the food and with first starter(wonton soup- PS :it's not soup) knew it would be good ,then we ordered asparagus sushi - now that was a bit low on taste as compared to what we had eaten before and we have feedback too..and waiter was sweet enough to get the chef and speak to us ..and after that they gave us complimentary bao and dessert on house ~ which was really sweet of them. And ramen (mushroom) was the best I ever had.

Ssaffron at Shangri-La Hotel in Vasanth Nagar is a celebration of authentic Indian flavors with an elegant twist. The restaurant offers a regal ambience, blending contemporary luxury with traditional Indian aesthetics. From the moment you enter, you're enveloped in an atmosphere of sophistication, enhanced by soft lighting, attentive service, and aromatic spices wafting from the open kitchen. The menu is a refined curation of North and South Indian delicacies, each dish plated with artistic finesse. The signature kebabs, aromatic biryanis, and rich gravies like the Murgh Makhanwala and Nadru Yakhni reflect culinary mastery. Vegetarian offerings like the Paneer Makhani and Dal Ssaffron are equally indulgent, satisfying the palate with depth and richness. What truly elevates the dining experience is the impeccable service. The staff is well-informed and gracious, guiding you through the menu and customizing dishes to your preferences. Whether it’s a romantic dinner or a luxury family outing, Ssaffron offers a dining experience that is both luxurious and rooted in Indian tradition — a true gem in Bengaluru’s culinary landscape.

This restaurant has such a cozy and charming atmosphere! The warm lighting, decor, and comfortable seating make it an ideal place for a relaxed meal. The 5 course non veg meal is worth trying and the service provided by sankadip and sufian was really great, too. Worth a repeat visit!

I had the prawn curry and chicken tikka, both of which were absolutely delicious and cooked to perfection. The staff who helped me today, Jagadish and Sankhadip, were exceptionally friendly and attentive, ensuring that everything was just right. Additionally, the chef made a special effort to greet guests, which added a personal touch to the experience. Overall, it was a fantastic dining experience, and I highly recommend that everyone come and try the food!

Absolutely loved the experience! The food by Chef Pankaj was delicious, he personally explains the process, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. The service by Biswas and Shankhdeep were amazing..they were attentive, friendly, and made us feel truly welcome. Will definitely be coming back

Saffron @18 Floor Indian & Italian cuisine restaurant. Been here for business meeting with client. Ambience & atmosphere is very good. View also nice. We have tried salmon tikka, paneer grill & pomfret. See it is good. Inaddition chef check-in for food preferences. Overall good

The view is stunning and they are friendly and attentive staff they also give the complimentary birthday cake and non spicy food for children. The restaurant offers a regal ambience blending contemporary luxury with traditional Indian aesthetics

Decent food, great atmosphere and impeccable service. Went there for dinner and the location and views were really good. Only negative I would say is that it's a tad too expensive for the food.

Opted this place to celebrate birthday ! Had been for dinner and hands down one of the worst places to dine in. The waiter who attend us was pretty new to the job I guess , I felt there could have been some assistance to him. Literally waited for more than 30 mins to get the first order on tables. Their food was not at all tasty , not worth the over price. Tomato soup was too salty. Makai kebab was good. Noddles was average. Biryani rice was not cooked completely. Baby corn chilly tastes average. Their complimentary mocktail were worst and all just artificial stuffs. At last the manager came and said sorry for the unsatisfactory service and as a compliment you can have deserts from the buffet section. My only point is why do you charge so much when you can keep up the standards , in return don’t always go with providing complimentary stuffs rather work on improving your standard of service.

Just to clarify, the same type of food might have made the rating 3 at-least but there is expectations associated with brand like JW and if you are charging me Rs 1300 -1400 per dish then there has to be some wow factor… but I think the real let down was the service and that not just brought the rating down but I don’t think I would recommend to visit them for food at-least… So this was at 10:15 pm on a weekday and first issue was we were given a table without any napkins and plates with marks !!! Again note that I am picky here as I am paying premium for this experience.. the place was not too busy but they had a running buffet and I think they expected everyone to go for that instead of à la carte order… anyway this should not be the excuse We ordered just three dishes, the appetizer: Mazze platter and as main course: spaghetti arriabiatta and pasta funghi.. first issue they got everything together, which makes no sense so we had to send the pasta back to be put in warmer while we enjoy the platter. Then about the food: - the mazze platter: very dry pita bread, and out of 4 dips two very very very average - pasta funghi: this looked like made from powdered cream… though taste wise this was Ok - spaghetti arrabiata : this was ok as well, nothing too great though.. The mocktails they gave were very good though and also the garlic bread that came with the pasta were very nice We ended up getting most of the pastas packed for home and there came the worst ending, the server packed the bread along with pasta in same box!!! On questioning (cause this will mess up the bread) another server took it back and said she will take care, only for us to realize after reaching home that she removed the bread!! So the only GOOD thing was just taken OUT and thrown!!!! Overall, very unhappy with our decision to eat at the J W Kitchen .. maybe buffet was good but I don’t care, either stop service à la carte or serve it well.. at-least that is what we deserve for paying the premium price.

The place offers a great ambiance that instantly sets the mood for a fine dining experience. It boasts an impressive variety of non-vegetarian dishes, mostly focused on continental cuisine, which meat lovers will definitely appreciate. However, it's quite a letdown for vegetarians — with only two vegetarian starters on the menu, options are extremely limited. Another drawback is the live kitchen setup. While the concept is appealing, there’s no display or information about what's available, leaving guests guessing what can be ordered. Additionally, the pricing feels steep for the overall offering, especially considering the limited vegetarian choices and lack of transparency at the live counters. Overall, a good spot for non-veg lovers who enjoy a premium ambiance, but not recommended for vegetarians or those looking for value for money.

We had a good time in JW Kitchen. Special thanx to Inalika for arranging quick cake and support.

One of the most lavish buffet spreads you will find, and a wide variety of cuisines within a single buffet. Worth a visit with family and friends for that special occasion. Great ambience, good service and good for large family groups. Amazing dessert selection, impossible to do justice to the variety.

The breakfast buffet spread is incredibly diverse. Love getting my Mysore masala dosa fix with my filtered coffee The staff are really friendly and we've been here for dinner as well. The bartender even went to get large ice cubes for my old fashioned from another bar to satisfy my preference.

Nowhere did it match JW standards. The buffet spread was quite limited — just 2 starters, 1 curry, 1 biryani, dal, South Indian rice, and a few local dessert options. Even the salad section had only a handful of choices.Guess what ,it was a weekend night. Overall, it was far below expectations and didn’t compare even to regular BBQ joints in town like Barbeque Nation or Absolute Barbecue. Any other similar brands like JW. Will have pizza ,pasta , Ice cream, Sandwich, pav bhaji. ITC was much better experience.

It’s well-ventilated, naturally lit, and filled with art installations that reflect Karnataka’s cultural heritage.

While the food tends to be on the pricier side, the quality and experience more than justify the cost.

Awesome airport. I think it is one of the best airport in india. Wooden work and living plant make it magnificent. It is away from city situated in large area. You will be forced to take selfies at every location of airport.

Kempegowda International Airport Terminal 2 is new terminal in bangalore, in my opinion it’s one of the best airports in the country with facilities, design as well as ease of access, through DigiYatra it’s seamless , The detailing is also done very carefully, brown colour tone with greens make it more appealing, usual false ceiling have been replaced with ceiling which resembles bamboo , I wonder why architect chosed bamboo for a place like bangalore but amazingly detailed. In the case of connection between the terminals there is bus every 10 minutes

KIA Bangalore is truly one of the best-maintained airports in India. The cleanliness, service quality, and overall maintenance are outstanding. The interior design is modern yet warm, with lots of greenery and open spaces that make it feel refreshing and unique compared to most airports. The staff are polite, helpful, and efficient, and everything from check-in to boarding is smooth and well-organized. It’s clear that a lot of care goes into keeping the airport running at such a high standard. If the airport metro line comes through in the future, it’s going to boom like anything — connectivity will take this already world-class airport to another level! Only wish there were a few more budget-friendly food options in the international departure area, as most eateries are on the pricier side. Overall, KIA stands out for its design, service, and cleanliness — easily one of the best airport experiences in the country! ✈️🌿✨
