Best Ambience and Excellent Food, a perfect place in baner to enjoy that private time with your family and friends unlike other restaurants in baner not too loud music which is a great thing, a truly fine dine experience.
Great ambience n loved the food. Courteous staff make you feel special n valued. Easy access; didn't find difficult to find the place.... keep it up!!!
Had the Mutton Saoji Thali. Spice levels are definitely high, but manageable. Kheema, Rassa, Mutton Sukka all were high on taste. Good food. Good place. Service could be a little more attentive.
A place with good food, appreciable service and awesome ambience..
Peaceful and calm space, perfect for relaxing yourself..
Special Saoji menu is available as add on..
We ordered saoji Dal kanda which was a lot more than usual dal..
Vegetable bhuna was finely chopped unlike other places..
Honey chilly potato was a very good starter..
Overall experience was worth for the cost..
Achieve “Nirvana” over good food and mind blowing LIVE music by Faizan and his great percussionist partner. They totally engaged us with some great music for over 2 hours and we found it really difficult to leave the place.
Frankly, the music was totally all over us and the food didn’t really matter to us.
Not sure if Faizan’s event is a regular feature at this place but whenever the event is happening make sure to be there and have the time of your life with friends or family.
Thanks Faizan & band for the great time.
Assal Saoji cusine!!
After a very long time I was able to have assal Saoji right here in Baner. Chicken sukkha Saoji chicken was awesome. Saoji chicken handi was also authentic Nagpuri Saoji. Missed phulka / bhakar. They do not have phulka/ bhakar in evening. It's only in thali. Life music was tooooo good..
Overall excellent Saoji evening...
We were at this restaurant like just now, an hour back or so. Came onto my social media, and other food blogs for their special Saoji thali and being a hardcore Saoji-lover I had to try this. This is by far the best Saoji I have tried in Pune (considering the fact that no other restaurant serves this cuisine)
Tried their Mutton, Chicken and even Veg thali. All good, not the same, but close. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to get a taste of this special Nagpuri cuisine! And, nice ambiance! Cheers!
Nirvana is a cute little place. Though I was little sceptical at first going to this restaurant,but they impressed me🙂 very kind staff, delicious food with fair quantity ! We went there last night (Saturday) and Sabali band was playing,it was so refreshing and lively.
We ordered- chicken angaara- very tender and delicious.
Manchurian dry- loved it!
And chicken biryani- pieces very soft and perfectly cooked.
Note-What grab ones attention would be there quick service and again very helpful and generous staff. I would definitely recommend this place.
Good job team Nirvana👍🏻
So this was my very first visit to this place as i wanted to try there “Saoji thali” that i heard a lot about by many and i’m glad i did... o my god it was just so delicious... first bite and we called the owner who was there at the counter... he was a bit confused as to what happened and we all just said “wooooow” 😄 must try👍🏻
Nirvana Restaurant and Bar is located on Baner road ...
I went here to review the Saoji Thalis they have added to their menu recently..
Starting with the Ambience..The restaurant has a lovely Ambience with decent lightings and a small bar on the floor itself....
Tasted their Saoji thalis ...
1) Chicken Saoji
2) Egg Saoji
3) Mutton Saoji
4) Shev Saoji Thali
The gravy in Saoji Thalis are made with different types of spices and secret ingredients which makes it even more tasty and a bit spicy...
The thalis are really special and recommend one to try the taste of Saoji , which you won't get anywhere in Pune.
The service i received was quite good ...The saoji thalis take some time to get its taste ...

Nirvana is a lovely restaurant and bar, in the newly expanding, developing Baner area. Located in a hotel ( if I am not mistaken ) it has dual floor seatings. The ground floor which has a nice, casual bar feel lies in total contrast with the family restaurant seating with they have upstairs. Minimal, yet classy interiors composed of small chandeliers amongst other, proves to set the mood right. I was invited to this place for a tasting session, to try out their newly launched SAOJI THALI.
Saoji gets is name from the western region of Maharashtra, particularly Nagpur. The cusine boasts of extremely spicy and flavorful dishes. Due to constantly facing water shortage, the saoji cusine does not involve any use of water. Using special ground spices importated from the local lanes of Nagpur, Nirvana promises to serve you the best of the Saoji food on your dinner table.
So the Saoji Thali comes in 4 different variants, viz vegetarian, egg, chicken and mutton. Each thali has 2 sabjis, a portion of gravy, rice and ghee filled chapatis, and some salad and papad ofcourse. I personally hogged up the egg thali, but got to taste every single preparation, and it was yummy! I will be majorly emphasizing on what I had, but before that lets have some mocktails!
HEAD BANGER - A tall and sleek glass, filled with fruity stuff, consisting of mango juice, vanilla extract, banana puree and some cream, topped with a slice of apple. The viscosity was really good, and it tasted yummy as well.
CHICHI - A delightful mixture of pineapple and orange juices and coconut juice. It owns it blue colour due to presence of blue curacoa. Another delicous drink indeed.
While we chatted around, waiting for our personally customized saoji thalis to come, we ate some really loaded MASALA PAPAD! By personally customized I meant that they adjust the spice level of the thali according to your pallate.
EGG SAOJI THALI - It consisted of 2 bowls of Egg curry, which were not the same, a fried egg and the regular. The rice and chapati were buttery. I specially had ordered the thali to be the least spicy, and so it was. It was spicy, but I was able to appreciate its masaledar taste. There was hardly any presence of oil, it was pure masalas that delightfully dominated the plate. The feeling of having something I love, egg curry, in two different variants was just amazing.
Along with the Saoji thali, they also have an ala carte menu.
I highly recommend you guys to try out this delocious SAOJI THALI FESTIVAL, as its unique and lovely. So make the best of it while its still on!!
Happy Burping!!!
Located near the bustiling baner highstreet,Nirvana is a new comer when it comes to competition.This place popped up in my feed when I was looking for a thali place.
As soon as I entered the restaurant I was confused as to the whereabouts,nobody was in the lobby to lead us to the restaurant but I made my way,following the amazing aroma trail.
I tried the Saoji Mutton Thali and Saoji Chicken Thali,both the thalis had Kheema,Rassa,Sukka,2 Chapatis and Rice.Boasting about the Saoji cuisine,the thali did taste just like a saoji thali should;flavourful yet spicy.
The service was super friendly which I really liked the only thing that got me thinking was the ambiance.Everything else was good.

Loved the live music and theme of this place!
Would recommend this to all music lovers who seek booze and some really great live musicians.
Make sure you book your table in advance!
Seatings and lightings could have been better!
Really nice place and it had good ambiance, the starters were really great and you have two options of ordering half or full plate which seemed new, the main course was also decent overall a nice place to visit for any occasion.
Very good Saoji preparations. Indrayni rice was made to perfection. Heavenly combination with Saoji masala/rassa !! I would liked it little more spicy though :)
Great ambience at very affordable price. I was there on the day of their 2nd anniversary. Live match screening on big screen during IPL and also for other sports.

very good Indian food, if you're European and stay in Baner don't miss this place!!
Great food and nice waiters. The beer tower or pitcher was amazing. Food served is good and its a bit small place to sit and dine but a good one. You can njoy matches in a white screen with projector on.
Its a nice place to go out on a date. Booking is recommended if you are planning to go late. The food is great and the prices are economical. They have great live music. I'd recommend sitting outside as inside seating is a little sad.
Ambience, the food taste and quality were a delightful experience. An ideal place for your next date. Service is a bit sappy I would suggest to work on. Bamboo Chicken Biryani and bamboo chicken kebabs are must try here. This place recently got merged with 'Patang'.
