Well.. South Bangalorean resident and giving this a miss is definitely not acceptable :)on ma way to work on a Tuesday morning.. Noticed this super cool clean tidy shining fast food joint located in the heart of Nr colony road.. ( opp the bus stand..couple of roads behind the chai point) and immediately decided in my head that this needs to get on my visited list.. Started on Monday October 20th..this super neat south Indian joint is bustling with ppl and creating waves.. Idli chutney, Vada chutney,kharabath,kesari bath and coffee/tea ( all in the price range of 10-25₹) ..I tasted their super crisp vada with the tasty chutney..and a cup of tea.. I would ve tasted other items too but not for now due to a bad stomach. There are clear boards indicating the chutney section, food , coffee tea, drinking water, wash basin et al.. Super shining restaurant.. The owner is too humble and was glad to show me around the grinding section,store room and the kitchen.. Well organized,cleanly maintained..that you don't ve to worry about the hygiene.. You're doing a fabulous job,team.. Thank you Sanjay & team..will visit you soon:)
Wow.. Rewriting the review after my Second visit here.. I am totally impressed with the hygiene, food quality, taste and Service too..
As per our foodie friends suggestions visited again today and it was crowded too.
I was pretty impressed with the prices in this beautiful restaurant, price of Idly is 20 rupees and Vada is 14 rupees and Kara bath is 15.
We can fill our stomach for 40 bucks.
About the taste it's just "Amazing" with the Soft Idly, Crispy Vada, Hot Karabath and Mouth Watering Chutney.
Only Sathvik restaurant in our locality for authentic breakfast.
I strongly recommend this restaurant for everyone.

Excellent Place For Coffee and I did not get a chance to have a breakfast or evening Snacks. Thinking to Visit here with few of my Foodie Friends at the earliest. Cheers Folks!!
Went here for a quick breakfast we order idly vada , karabath , navane bisibelebath , jamun & also coffee n tea.. but yea even though it’s a simple breakfast it was crowded and hardly any space to move around.. but the billing and food service was quite fast despite the crowd.. and they have only Green or coconut chutney for idly,vada they don’t offer Samanar.. taste wise really good but the hand wash area and drinking water place looks a little unhygienic.. but that just net picking you shud go and try there food.. real VFM
Must visit place for healthy Bangalore breakfast.
Items are very selective there, but taste is really very good, specially idli and shavige bath, with their chatni. i love it.
Allways love with these place!! when ever I use to go to have evening snacks like Idli, Vada , upama it gives different and delicious taste.
I prefer these place to visit, you guys need healthy and taste food then this place is best in Bangalore for delicious food.
Best Brahmins hotel in Bangalore and food is awesome.

Excellent food, quick service, Idlis and Karabath a must try. Mostly crowded. Try the filter coffee. They have millet bisibela bath. A very healthy food
Ambiance - Always packed with people. Simple self service space.
Service - Thoroughly professional staff. Quick service. Quick cleaning and clearing.
Price - They earn every bit they charge. Very moderately priced.
Taste - I tasted the following items :
Idlis - Were soft and served hot right out of the steamer. The chutney is of a lighter consistency and right level spicy which goes perfectly well with the idlis.
They don't serve sambar however.
Vada - Again served with chutney and not sambar. They're crispy and taste very good. The tastiest vadas I've eaten in a long time.
Gulab jamoon - It tasted good. I would have liked it much more if it was a little less sweeter than it was served.
Tea - Good
An ideal breakfast outlet in Bangalore.... This place serves some nice idlis, vada, khara and Kesari bath. A good place to hangout after an early morning walk in South Bangalore. The only drawback about this place according to me is that they don't serve sambhar.
Idli, Vada and Chutney are the show stealers. Other items on the menu like shavige bath, puliyogare, etc. can be skipped. So far best Idli Vada joint in the vicinity of NR Colony and it is located just next to NR Colony Bus Stop.
I love shavige bhat and this is the 6th time I'm ordering from this outlet. I assure you they make the best shavige bhat on this planet. I love it. 6th order and till date not even once got disappointed. It's just perfect. The quantity, the taste it's delicious and refreshing.
Most importantly non oily. I had ordered from many other restaurants but most time either they are dripping oil, or the amount of lemon is too high, some even add raw vinegar and I end up disposing most of it because it makes me throw up.
But from here it's just the way I want it to be. Perfectly made.
Taste 5/5
Love forever.
One of the best filter coffees in south Bangalore !
Very reasonable prices and don’t miss to have the Idli and vada with chutney !
The taste is unparalleled and also one of the few places open from pretty early in the morning.
The vada is the best partner in crime to make your belly happy with the coffee , the crispy vada and the hot coffee almost compose a symphony in your throat making your soul hum to the beats !
I would say this is one of THE authentic Namma Bengaluru delicacy, I went to have Idly, but ended up having many more… It’s a must visit place… Here you actually get “Khara Bath” and “Uppitu”, I haven’t come across many hotels and restaurants serving both as these two dishes taste differently… unfortunately I couldn’t have these two because my tummy was so full…

Idli, vada n chutney was very good. Would recommend surely this place for all. Avalakki n Bisi Bele bath was more on sweeter size, would have even better if it was little spicy..
No onion, no garlic restaurant: One of the tastiest South Indian kitchens that deliver extremely affordable, authentic South Indian food. Loved the crispy Vada. Savige Bhath is a must try. It is very very light and non sticky. Loved bisibelle bhath and khara bhath too. Bisibelle bhath has a sweet but really lovely taste. The prices start from as cheap as Rs. 12. The entire menu is just under Rs. 44. Filter coffee and gulab jamun have to be tried for sure. This places has the softest of gulab jamuns. Service is pretty quick. Street side parking is available. The staff is friendly too. A self service restaurant which is really good for a quick bite. No onion, no garlic restaurant, no sambhar but still the food is top notch. The quality of food is really good. Serious hygiene is maintained and continuous cleaning of food counter takes place.
One of the lightest, tastiest shavige baths in town. Fantastic banana kesaribath. Their huli or gojjavalakki is out of this world. Idli vadE is great and the chutney is stellar. Good filter kaapi as well. They have introduced haalbai to their menu as well. They make it in many flavours. Light, fresh, simple, pocket friendly food. Absolutely fantastic place. Quintessential Bengaluru darshini :)

Tasty and Healthy breakfast options are available which is made of millets.
Other than that idli vade , upma and South Indian breakfast are available.
This place is seriously underrated ! One of the best idlis and the best chutney I have had in Bengaluru. The idlis are so soft they will fall apart if you lift them up and the chutney pairs perfectly with it. They do use a bit of mint in the coconut chutney which makes it so refreshing. Vada was equally good , crispy on the outside and soft inside. Definitely must try.
Closest and adjacent to NR Colony bus stop. South Kitchen has excellent Idly, crispy Vada and chutney which are quick bites. Additionally you get Shavige bath, Khara bath too..
This is a small darshini style restaurant which is at a walking distance from NR colony bus stop. Had idly , huli avalakki(gojju avalakki) and tea here. Food was good here. They don't use onion or garlic for cooking . Service was quick. There are 3 - 4 tables and we have stand and eat. It was crowded when I went. This restaurant is closed on Sunday's.
