Saravana Bhavan is nearly always a good bet when you just want a simple, decent meal or snack, because it tends to be very consistent in all its branches. Like the branches in Chennai, the Delhi branch has all the usual tiffin suspects - a variety of dosa, utthapam, idli, etc. - plus meals. The meals are limited but big... More

I have visited them many times, with my family also. Every time, we had to wait for our turn. But food is just awesome. And taste is just unique. Tried many Dosas, Badam Halwa & many other dishes. All are fantastic. More

Sarvana Bhavan offers south Indian food for north Indian Tastebuds, however keeping the autheticity of flavours. The pricing is above average but the menu is very comprehensive giving options to all kind of people. I was suprized with their variety in Desserts, mostly ice cream sundays...and they were actually nice. Do try the strong filter coffee for that South Indian... More

This is my second visit to this South Indian vegetarian restaurant. It is a quick service, "fast" food place, but you do get served.

Prices... More
