I had ordered tandoori paneer tikka and paneer bhuna. Paneer bhuna has a perfect blend of sweet and spicy. You should definitely try these 2 dishes. Tandoori paneer tikka was a bit spicy, but the taste was very delicious. Paneer pieces were soft and easy to cut.
The ambience was like a traditional restaurant. Warm lights were used to give it a perfect traditional look.
Have been visiting this restaurant for quite some time now. We had the the following on a recent visit
Nachos - nachos were creamy and not overly done with veggies which is why we loved it. The nachos and cheese were fresh !
Minestrone soup - the best soup I have had in recent times. Perfectly sweet and tangy and had a very creamy taste to it.
For main course we had -
Cheese butter masala which is a chef speciality. It is paneer butter masala but with cheese cubes in it. Had a decent taste. Though it can be improved
Dal makhani - nice decent taste. The dal was rightly cooked and had a nice aroma to it
Amrapali is a good family restaurant which can be tried once in a while !

Consistently-maintained quality of food throughout the years. No surprises when it comes to ordering. Fast service and good staff
One of the best places to have Punjabi food... Punjabi food is delicious... Place is a bit small... very close tables. Chinese food is not so good..
Very Delicious North Indian and Italian dishes served. Amazing hospitality whenever I am here. Must visit. One of my most favourite places in Pune.
This restaurant is a bit tough to find for a newbie. The food here is sumptuous. Simply good on taste. Ambiance is fine. Cheese pulav is a treat for your taste buds. Highly recommended.

Fergusson College road (F.C. road) is one of the most bustling roads in Pune. Filled with street side shops and food stalls, it also houses some of the most delicious restaurants in Pune. Down a small ally we found Amrapali, and it turned out to be simply mind-blowing.
The path leading to the restaurant’s opening was set to give a very exquisite vibe. The restaurant was lit by warm yellow lights and decor that took us back to Punjab. As usual, since smell of the food is what first strikes us, this restaurant was filled with a lingering scent of butter. We were seated by very pleasant staff members and we were ready to dive into the amazing flavors of Punjab and other North Indian states. Without any doubt, our first dish was a tandoori paneer tikka platter, I mean it was very obvious at this point. Beautiful soft and creamy chunks of paneer served in a skewer, topped with capsicum and onion, it was the perfect starter. A bite into the paneer tikka and we knew this place was truly authentic in terms of their flavors. The paneer was so soft that it almost melted in our mouths and the seasoning and marinade were perfectly balanced. The starter was followed by our main course which was Masaledar Mushroom and Butter roti (with extra butter). This was, in all honesty, mind blowing. The mushrooms were cooked to perfection, the flavors of the masala were well-balanced and the buttery roti complemented the dish beyond words that can be used to explain. The main course was simple but it was made to such impeccable perfection that we kept repeating our order till our hearts were satisfied.
Amrapali is yet another gem in this Pune city and we definitely look forward to visiting again just to indulge in their authentic Punjabi flavors. They do offer other cuisines such as Italian, Chinese and other North Indian states cuisines, but we will be going there mostly for their Punjabi flavors. Its becoming a rarity where you find authentic Punjabi flavors and Amrapali offers top notch flavors.

This is Punjabi restaurant situated jn Pune on FC road next to hotel rupali. Loved the food it was tasty and service was good too. Hotel is clean and neat. Prices are quite hogh but worth paying.
I went there for dinner i tried panner amritsari , dal tadka , rotis and rice. Quantity was small as compare to price but it was tasty dal tadka was great.
They havent madhe neat and clean road to enter in hotel.
One of the old restaurants in Pune famous for the authentic taste of the dishes they served. Slowly it is becoming history. The taste of the food is not that good which was once upon a time. This restaurant needs to hold tight it's reputation
Nice food and taste. One of the oldest restaurant in Pune, but somewhat costly as compared to other family restaurants.
The place is maintaining its food taste since many years... And I have to admit that the food here is very very tasty. It's a favorite for many vegan people since many years and is a relieving option with other cuisinea at a location famous for pure South Indian food. I have given 1 star less because the service is extremely slow.
It is a best option for vegetarian. It is little bit costly but food is lovely and delicious. Staff is very polite and helpful with good suggestion. You have to wait for table in rushing hours.
I recently dined at this venerable establishment and was thoroughly impressed. The ambiance was delightful, creating a perfect setting for a memorable meal. The Amrapali dal was a standout, complemented by the flavorful veg chilli milli. The lachha Paratha and butter roti were impeccably prepared, showcasing the kitchen's mastery. The staff's courtesy added to the overall positive experience. It's evident why this longstanding restaurant has maintained its reputation for exceptional quality over the years.
Thank you Amrapali staff and chef for a wonderful experience.
Location : Obscure to the extent of hidden
Seating capacity : @60 odd on ground floor only
Business : Fully Occupied almost always....
The says and sums it all. Despite being away from main road and public eye this joint attracts not just customer but ardent fans over the years.
With authentic and great tasting food wuality they have not just surviced but thrived on the busy FC Road and ample competing joints.
If you just wish to satiate your taste buds this is the place to go.
Happy smiling faces make up for the icing on the tasty dishes.
Visited after almost 15-18 years. Ambience still the same. Quality and service still the same. Top notchbest veg north indian food on FC road.
Hotel Amrapali's food was so tasty... you can try veg biryani here... The hotel way is too confusing. But just follow Arrow on hotel board... Only two wheeler parking is available.... No car parking... You need find parking on road or around 200 MTR you hv paid parking below pizza hut outlet.,..
I went here around 1130 or 12pm. I got a table immediately. We were around 7 people. Amazing service, it's fast and sweet. The quantity of food is also enough as 1sabzi is enough for a group of four people. And it's not even costly. Ambience is also good. I loved my experience the interior is kinda old but looks great. I suggest to visit if possible for y'all. Taste is good, service is good, quantity is good, not at all costly. So what more do you want now. Do visit this place.
