We came in because the restaurant next door was awful. It has good selection of vegan food. Lemon soda was tasty. Masala dosa big and tasty.

Had our lunch in sarguru restaurant. Being a long weekend, it was very crowded but they managed well. Had ordered North indian thali, noodles and kothu parotta. All of them were good to taste. I alone found biryani in the North indian meal quiet spicy....Because of the crowd the ac wasn't effective.More

The place is spacious and the AC was good. We had special South and north indian meals. Food was fine, curd was sour. Being a busy restaurant little waiting is understandable.

Pathetic place. Waiters don’t even have menu and will force you to order their terrible and tasteless thali. Service is also very slow. Not good for tourist as they don’t even speak English

Great place to eat if you want authentic South Indian food in a no-frills, canteen-style restaurant. Super helpful waiters. Notable for the number of single Western diners, especially women. We had Gobi Manchurian, Paneer Tikka Masala, and a Chana Bathura.

Had Rawa masala dosa and uttapam. It was very delicious and healthy. Experienced the original dosa taste and really enjoyed it. Very mild and soothing to the tongue.

Situated near the white town. Excellent spot with occasional non-veg smell near the entrance. Food is excellent. Ambience is decent. We enjoyed good food throughout our 3 days stay at Pondicherry. Staff were courteous. Always crowded with customers.
