Good place for pure veg people.. Quite good and silent place.. Place restaurant to have a family dinner or lunch.. Good ambiance and not so expensive.. Friendly staff and also very attentive..
The one thing about this place that needs to be noted is the fact that it is always crowded. We ordered here schezwan rice along with paneer crispy.
The rice tasted pretty good however paneer chilly would have been a great option instead of paneer crispy, the paneer crispy tasted rather sweet and sour.
There's a lot of variety in jain food because many dishes are available in jain version. Also, they suggested a dish and we didn't like it much so they didn't charge anything for it. (I never had such experience especially in Pune :p)
Whoa, they exactly know what their customer want.
They are located dead-on bal gandharv Chowk, so they know people here have not come for a cozy dinner.
They know people want quick good, and they are 10/10 on that.
Quite a large list of menu items, mix of snacks, heavy snacks and proper meal.
Decent rate, sufficient quantity, super fast service, to the point serving staff, delicious tasty dishes, reachable accessible place... What else you want.
Only they need to improve their ventilation, rest all is perfect!
Masala papad.....veg crispy........veg lazeez....tandoor roti.....veg biryani...taste was good but not amazing ...pocket friendly and good...if you are in college n looking for pocket friendly place with good quantity of food....try this
Went for breakfast at this place on 27 Jan 2019 at around 8 am. The restaurant was just opened. The food took some time to deliver but the wait was worth it. Paper dosa was huge and idli wada sambar was perfect. The only problem was the dosa and chutney was very sweet. But rest all was really appreciable.
Overall,
Food- 4/5
Service- 4/5
Ambience- 3/5
Definitely recommended.
A great family restaurant located near Bal Gandharv Rang Mandir
, is always one of the options to celebrate birthdays,anniversaries or any occasion with family. Service provided is fast and good. The ambiance of this restaurant is amazing-full of lights and pictures. They have a great variety of vegetarian food which is delicious and worth the money.
Very good service the staff is polite, the food tastes very good, the food quantity is also more.
Worth all the money spent, but there is always a waiting line outside the restaurant but it's worth the wait.
Perfect place for vegetarian food. Best quality of food and good in quantity also, nice staff and rates are also reasonable as compare to quality of food.
A good place for vegetarian food. Had gone here for a lunch. The place was quite full. We ordered a masala papad, paneer tikka and rotis. Masala papad was very tasty. Talking about the tikka it had many paneer pieces but it would have been better If they were cut into small places and not so huge pieces. Also the vegetables were cut into big pieces in it. But the taste was good so no issues. Overall good experience.
Food - 4/5
Ambience - 4/5
Service - 3.5
( giving less for the Service cause the toilet wasn't well maintained and unhygienic )
Finally got a place in pune where i can get jain sambhar
Personally best idli vada and dosa
In jain you get both south indian dishes along with tasty jain sambhar and coconut chatni
A very well known veg restaurant. Pick any dish and you won't be disheartened. Situated exactly to the other side of Balgandharva. I've been here many times and have tried various dishes for lunch and dinner. Do not know much about the snacks.
A must visit place if you want to try authentic veg food.
All time favourite restaurant...like going there from my childhood and taste is same like before....like quality is maintened throughout the years in the less price...
Cheers✌️
One of the best places to go for authentic Indian food! I love the flavors at Viceroy and the staff is really friendly and helpful. Being Indian, I like the fact that the food is absolutely authentic and healthy (not submerged in loads and loads of oil like other places). You won't be disappointed, your stomach will be happy and your wallet won't be completely empty. Now this is my favorite indian restaurant. Gandharv Restaurant's food is definitely the most enjoyable and flavorable. Try the the viceroy special biryani and butter chicken. You will want to keep coming back for more. It also looks like they did a little remodeling. Looks very nice.We've tried most of the restaurants but eventually come up with this as I found Great service. Wide selection of...You cannot find a better...This place is the best.
Excellent dosa which I ordered
Sumptous
Hygienic packing
Overall food quality is nice,
Very happy that with zomato,
It might be possible to get food delivered to my home...
The delivery people at zomato seem to be professional and courteous
food was yummmm as usual but had requested a disposable spoon in comments as well as on chat with zomato which I finally did not get
I have been visiting this restaurant since 2002. A nice place of pure vegetarian food. Their idli, dosai and medu vadai are good. North Indian curries and breads are good. Veg Tawa masala is the best among curries, while veg biryani is the best among rice preparations. Chilli paneer, gobi manchurian and tomato soup are delicious too. Ambience is okay and cleanliness is acceptable. The A/C section on the first floor has better interiors. Their fixed menu "thali" is wholesome. Prices are on the lower side. I recommend this place to veg food lovers.
Get a chance to visit here when my friend was staying in hotel gandharv which is located just back side of restaurant.
This is pure veg restaurant with three different area of seating option like outdoor, non ac and ac area.
Visited here during dinner time which was crowded.
Service was not good.
Had paneer butter masala and butter roti which was average in taste.
Thali is good option if you are looking for pocket friendly price.
My all time favourite place to have breakfast. Visiting this place since my childhood and i must say they have maintained the quality and taste. My favourite dish being Veg. Cutlet. Definitely worth trying.
A good dosa lover this is the one for you guys, a maysure masala dosa and a grilled cheese sandwich is my favorite, a service is slower and place is compact
one of the best places in Pune for veg lover's and for the breakfast I frequently go the there for breakfast and some time for launch hygienic places and polite staff food quality is also very good and comfortable setting arrangement.....
We went to the place numerous times for BDay Bash, team lunch. The place serves good food with good price, the quantity is also good. Taste is appreciative. Service was awesome, they tried their best as we were a group of around 25. Well managed space and can accommodate a group of 40 people easily. Can try if you reside/ have office nearby.
Every single time I visit this place I find no change in the taste. The decency of food is always maintained. Good place for veggies. Good ambiance, good staff and good service. Food is good enough for spending money.
Good food..... nice ambience.... good service..... We ordered main course and loved the food!!!
Thanks, would like to visit again!!!!!!!!!!!
This one's a generic veg restaurant.
The medu vadas are humongous. Triple rice+noodle is good, so is dosa.
Service is quick enough. A safe bet if you don't expect much.
Food was nice. Crispy veg manchurian i liked the most. Paneer dilruba is not so spicey. Naan was well baked and buttered. One of the best option for veg food.
This place is our family restaurant!! I've been having food here since I was a child. The quality has been consistent over the years. The prices being always in budget even for a large party. I've had almost tried everything on the menu. I'd suggest their rava dosa for snacks. All paneer sabji and pulav for main course. I like their American chopsey too.
Such a nice place to eat lots of food in min bill . The place is lil conjugated but it's really nice and good quality and quantity is the best.
Food is delicious here..
But it stays too crowded specially in the evenings. You'll have to wait for a while to get a table.
Ambience is normal.
Another typical Udupi Style Restaurant.
The food is good. The ambience is good. The location is also good.
Be aware of flies, as you might find plenty of them over here.
Sambar and Chutney served with South Indian dishes are yummy. And, unlike other Udupi Restaurants, they serve 3 Steamed Idli’s instead of 2.
The Palak Masala Dosa and Medu Wada are equally good.
You shall get a very quick service at any point of time.
I'll start with the pros first.
I've been here twice and both the times was satisfied about the good quality and quantity of the food delivered. Masala Papad, Veg Marata, Rava masala dosa, Crispy vegetables were good.
Ambiance is average.
Cons is mainly the speed of the service. Seems like the should add more manpower.
I Went There To Eat Something Their Special Dish Called Paper Masala Dosa .
First Of All You Alone Cannot Eat It Completely As It Is So Long And Heavy . Now About The Service, Yes It Is Absolutely Stunning And Polite . And When It Comes To Taste Believe Me ' It Is Just Awesome ' So Don't Worry About That And I Would Recommend That Go For Paper Masala Dosa Without Any Second Thoughts.
Good food and great appetizers.my recommendations is veg crispy and veg makhanwala.
For full review plzz follow me on instagram at veggie_pune. ✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻
Gandharv is a really good place for having South Indian breakfast. There is lot of variety and the South Indian food is good for the price. Also this place serves North Indian dishes which are also descent. It's a good old choice of family restaurant. The service is super quick even in rush hours. There is generally a wait here on the weekends. Overall a pretty descent place.
Food-3.5/5
Service- 4/5 (Really fast service)
Ambience-2/5
Most convinient restaurant with central location. This is like any other JM road restaurant. Parking might be prob but options are available. My fav here has always been sabudana wada but have tried many things southern dishes as well. Just as any other place in that area its good ol typical one.
It was long day after shopping that we decided to choose this restaurant for a quick bite before we could head home. The restaurant has a decent ambience and a perfect location that’s easily visible. Premium food and ambience at affordable prices and no hidden charges i.e., prices listed in the menu are inclusive of all taxes. A complete family restaurant better than others in this area; Crowded but peaceful, no traffic or parking problem outside & no congested seating inside. A well-managed restaurant with good food to enjoy with your loved ones, we ordered Masala Dosa, OT Uthappa, Pav bhaaji & Masala Paav. Personally, I loved the Masala Paav & the way it was made. The excessive bhaaji over the top of the paav with the extra load of butter melting is surely a different way of the making of the dish but it was the best dish I ordered. Overall, it’s a scrumptious meal eating place if you’re looking for some good vegetarian food.
Its a pure veg hotel situated in the core area of pune.
Its one of the best restaurant in shivajinagar.
Food is really delicious. The ambience is typical what a veg restaurant has.
It has variety of food like north indian, south indian as well as chinese.
Overall good
Visited here for dinner during my trip to pune..
There is 2 section of seating non ac and ac area .. there are some open area also for seating which i guess open only in night..
Had order paneer masala and nutter naan..
Size of butter naan was very big.. panner masala was average ..
Good food.
Stomach filling Thalis to Awesome South Indian food.
Punjabi cuisine is well prepared.
And like a cherry on top the service is awesome
Very good family restaurant.. offers wide variety of vegetarian dishes. Tried the veg jalfrezi and it was good. However the rotis were a little hard..if you're visiting on sunday make sure you reach as early as 7 or reserve tables it gets crowded. Overall good place, good service, reasonably priced and good food :)
This restaurant is always crowded.. And I have seen it like that since many many years...
Ambience is not really their forte.. Seating arrangement is a bit congested..
And if u happen to visit their section upstairs on a hot, sunny afternoon, be prepared to get drenched in sweat as ventilation is not good and 1 fan is kept between 4 tables.. They've got to do something about it..
Coming to food -- it is pocket-friendly and tasty.. My Masālā Dosā had some 'sajuk tup' (साजूक तूप) on it which very few udipi restaurants put on the Dosā.. :-)
Tea was not very great.. :-|
Frequented by office-goers and collegians alike.. Family restaurant..
This is place near to JM road.
Food is great
Service is fast.
Ambience is good.
Pocket friendly
If you are near by area must Try....:)
they have ample space for seating from open air to air condation area also..
Coming to menu card they have everything from vegitrain food..
Service is excellent..
This place is really good. Pocket budget restaurant. I have been visiting this place from last 8 years and best part is nothing has changed. Food quality , quantity , service everything is good. My mom is always ready to visit this place.
Located on the bustling J.M road, opposite Bal Gandharava Rangmandir, this place is one my favourites for South Indian food. I've been coming here since many years and the quality and the service have remained unchanged. The ambience is nice and one can either sit outside looking at busy road or inside in the dining area. A life size painting of famous musicians and singers adorns one of the walls inside. This place is always crowded especially in the evenings. Amongst the South Indian specialties, Onion Uttappa, Rava Masala dosa and Medu Wada are the best. The Pav Bhaji is also great. The filter coffee served here is highly recommended and one must have it after any meal. The portion sizes are good. The service is fast and this place is great for all breakfast, lunch and dinner. Parking can be an issue as they do not have a dedicated parking space. Still, go ahead and visit this place for awesome South Indian food and Filter Coffee!
Quantity of food is very good and service is decent too. Taste was fine and we had a nice dinner.,..........................................
One of the many meeting places to have cafe, tea & something to munch on with conversation.. This place is no other & we had ordered usual south Indian dishes.. Paper dosa is 4 feet tall & it's a mammoth task to finish it.. along with it we had ordered rava masala dosa and pav bhaji.. service is fast and food is decent. To finish we filter coffee which was brewed hot.. This place is pretty famous and you can expect waiting time on weekends..
I was visited this plase on 7 October, with my friends for celebrat my birthday, and we eat paneer chingari and roti, with cold drinks.
Paneer chingari tast is very good and quantity is valu for money.
service is good.and seating is comfortable.
I will visit again this place with my family.
GOOD TAST & SPECIALLY SERVICE.🎶😅
Well if you love vegetarian do visit gandharv although i am a non vegetarian so i mostly visit this place for breakfast when i stay near deccan area they ample area for parking ,good ambience and the poori-baaji and chai was too good!!
Located just opposite Bal Gandharv theater, this place serves excellent North Indian food.We had ordered the Jain version of Baby corn kadai, Dal,Paneer Butter Masala and all of them tasted pretty good. The butter naan had butter dripping from it ! The service is ultra fast and the quantities good too.
My rating:
Food - 4/5
Ambiance - 3/5
Value for money - 4/5
Just another day..I never miss any chance to visit this place when I am on Vegan mode.
I always love to have Idli-wada sambar, Dosa, Sandwiches etc.
One of my all time favorites is Veg Cutlet, It's #Crispy#Tasty#Soft#Fresh#Awesome
If you love to eat healthy & halka-phulka snacks, add this to your platter :-)
Cheers
I remember having laughed for 5 mins straight when I heard my cousin suggesting me the dish Chilly-Milly (that was the first time I had heard of that dish and according to my cousin they serve good Chilly-Milly). I have visited this place quite some times. The waiting time on Holidays is a lot. Also there parking is an issue here because the restaurant doesn't have any dedicated parking space. The food is pretty good though. So you can definitely go and have a satisfactory lunch or dinner here.
Been here for today lunch its good typically udupi Restuarent.
Service seems bit slow we can assume there must be staff problem as some of the staff seems new and wasn't having any experience of service so the service it is 3/5 .
come to food we had ordered there deluxe thali which cost 140 per head pretty decent thali the content was paneer mutter , rassam ,one more gravy veg , one green veg , dal , rice ,curd , kheer , papad and tw upo tandoori roti . and tomato soup before starting your meal which was have fair taste of tomato soup quantity is fair enough for a person u cant have anything beyond that .
quality wise it okey u cant expect more than this in this much of price overall it was good experience if u are in hurry and search for something near balgandharv u can give a try . food its 4/5
and the puneri pati ..dont engage the table without reason 😀😀😀
I have never been fond of this place but thought of giving it a try with family! A decent looking restaurant which I know is quite old and is listed in few of top favorites for Punekars. The food quality is good and the seating is also appropriate. However, improvement is required in terms of service and cleanliness. Definitely a pocket friendly one!
This place is one of the best places for vegetarian food in this area ... JM road is filled with all the Vegetarian restaurants but this one is my favourite..... It is always packed and the quality is not compromised .... Light on pockets too....

I am not very fond of vegetarian food. But after eating their food now i am in love with vegetarian food. We had ordered crispy vegetables,butter naan,rice and paneer and mushroom gravy(which was made on our special request) as we craved for both paneer and mushroom. So the waiter made that available to us. Service was very prompt. Ambience was nice. Food-5
#Tasty #Delicious Food. 💫🤤😋
Great Restaurant 👍🏻
Their service is fast. 🙌🏻
Food is good
Service is fast
Ambience is low
Must try:-
Starter: Veg Manchurian, Panner Crispy.
Main Course: Paneer Angara
Veg
Butter Roti
Restaurant is at prime location center of city.
More crowd at weekend.
Low Parking Space.
Slightly felt higher cost with respect there restaurant ambience and taste of food.
Good restaurant for pure veg people
It was awesome and a really good experience with food and all.
We ordered masala papad as a starter which is basically like everybody ordered that. I can't believe I'm saying that but that was the most amazing masala papad I ever tasted. The shev was very rich and a lot. I happened to like बारीक शेव so that was happiness for me.
Then we ordered Kaju paneer masala, roti and dal khichadi as main course. Kaju paneer masala was very delicious. I thought, it would be less spicy and somehow sweet but that wasn't the case it was spicy not a lot spicy. Loved it.
Roti was made by mix maida and wheat so it was soft it was plain tandoor roti and it was still soft.
Dal khichadi was absolutely delicious. There was तूप on top of that. And it tasted more good with आंब्याच लोणचं yeah they give you with onion and lemon. It was just wow. Kaju paneer masala and dal khichadi was enough for 3 people
For dessert we ordered lassi which was very sweet. I'm not that much of a sweet tooth.
Service is a little slow but that's okay.
It's one of the best vegetarian restaurants I have come across. All menu is vegetarian.
Clean
Fast service
Freshly prepared
Hygiene is maintained
Co-operative staff
Taste is good...
I have tried a variety of dishes whenever I visit Gandharv.
My personal likes in snacks are Idly Sambhar and Chutney, Tomato Omelet, Masala Dosa
And in lunch and dinner, all items are good.
Starting with the interior...it is okayish!
Taste of food is amazing.
Service is quick!
Prices are reasonable and so the quantity is.
Overall had a good experience!
Awesome taste for food.
Less Parking.
Nice ambiance.
Since this restaurant is having rush there is a lot of noise inside.
Preferable AC tables at upstairs.
I visit this restaurant always when i am in ShivajiNagar. This restaurant's food quality is Good and perfect for my veggie loving taste, and the atmosphere is also good.
Visit for your experience. 😊
Overall Experience :-

Hotel Gandharva, in the name of Bal Gandharva Rangmandir. Pretty old hotel off Jungli Maharaj road. Exactly opposite to Bal Gandharva rangmandir. Obviously in a prime area. Famous for snacks and tea.
Service was good. Though I went at the rush hours time on Sunday evening the waiters were very courteous. Food was also good but not great. Taste and quality standards are maintained. Being in the prime area, vehicle parking is a big challenge. Two wheelers can be adjusted by parking on the limited space and sometimes on footpaths. But four wheeler parking is a real challenge.
Overall experience was good.
Gandharv Hotel is a great place to have a quick bite.
It serves tasty food at moderate prices.
The service is good and you will have to typically
not wait for much time for your food to be served.
I would recommend you to try for Pav Bhaji, South Indian dishes and coffee.
But thali is awesome. Just in your pocket, no spicy.
Mmm! Tongue melting foods. They provide both North and South Indian dishes at moderate price. The restaurant is clean and well maintained but little bit crowdy. You can have your meal at ac chamber without any extra charge. A very good place for family gathering and spend good time with your special one.
Good food. Nice service Very nice poster of music legendary
Need to have temperature controlled air conditioning. It became freezing cold after the first half. The canteen only had samosa and tea. They should have a little more food and drink options. This feedback is for improvement. This place will always have a special place for every Punekar.
Nice experience, ordered thali for lunch
Quick service and management. Worth of money.
The one thing about this place that needs to be noted is the fact that it is always crowded. We ordered here Veg Biryani along with Masala Papad.
The rice tasted pretty good however Paneer Butter Masala was awesome and have nice taste and texture to it.
Loved the food there... We ordered Cheese Onion Uttappa and Udid Wada Sambar. Then we got some Tea 1/2.. Both the images are posted on Google Before the review.. The restaurant is nice, cozy and clean.. The cleaners clean the tables and floor more oftenly.. The cashier is very good and friendly. It's one of the famous restaurants for meetings, dating, casual meetups, etc.. Nothing much to say. Just visit the restaurant for more great experience. Thanks for letting me open up. Same as always..
Looking for a quick and tasty bite? This restaurant is the go-to spot! 😊
It's an all-rounder, perfect for family, friends, and colleagues alike.
Their food is simply delicious! You can't miss their, a must-try Fruit Salad. 😊
The ambience is lovely, and the staff is super friendly.
A great place to be!
