    Date: 27 March 2022 time 9 pm. The mini idlies were spoilt and tasted sour. Then the waiter returned with plain that also was stale. Upon complaining to the manager, he offered iddiapam. But it was not available. Manager vanished and we had to leave as it was already late. Very bad service quality. DO NOT DINE LATE IN THE EVENING

    Great taste, well maintained place with good hygiene. Staffs can speak English, tamil and hindi🀝. Service is little slow yet they managed. Usually crowded. Mini Tiffany and coffee are must try foodπŸ‘Œ. You can also get snacks and mouthwatering sweets. All types of South Indian foods are available (pure vegetarian). Good place for snacks loversπŸ‘πŸ». Dine in available (nov-2021). Customer service need to be improved. Less quantity but little high in priceπŸ‘Ž Location: ashok nagar metro station Parking:no private parking. Can park on road sides.

    Many workers are here but none of them are taking orders!..... Waiting time is more!..... This is 31st time for me waiting so long to give orders!..... Just they are walking here and there except taking orders!.... Need good manager for supervising and serving for customer!..... So sad this time due to long waiting time!.... If you go alone nobody comes to take orders!.... Only taking orders from 4 to 5 people came together!.....

    Adyar Ananda Bhavan is a very good place for traditional South Indian snacks, meals, Sweets, savories and chaat. They have a good collection of North Indian items too. Recommend everyone to try Gobi Manchurian dry. They make it really well here. Their Jaangiri, mysore pak are really good. They make Boli n paniyaram in evenings. They are fresh n tasty. Being in metro station also helps a lot. Their filter coffee is also very good.

    A very famous restaurant here Adyar Ananda Bhavan also known as A2B serves one of the best south Indian cuisine. Authentic ghee roast idlis and dosas will fill your taste buds with atmost satisfaction. Must try here is their Rava Kesari which was just lip smacking. This dish made my day. We couldn't stop Filter coffee at one. It was soo good. Unfortunately Ghee Pongal was not available so it was a major miss. Foodies Do visit A2B at any branch.

    The service staff needs to be soft spoken. Many are found standing in groups gossiping and are at times arrogant in attending. My suggestion to the owners of the restaurant would be to impart training to their staff. Other good things will soon follow.

    Less option for chaat items. Parcel pongal & idles were average and cost wise higher only . Still a better option compare to others. Sweets & snacks are always good.

    Worst service ever I have seen, such a pathetic excuse. We have ordered the stuffs and waiting for hours to get it served what kind of a attitude they show to their customers even to get the menu card it took us 20mins if this is going to be continued then you r surely going to loose ur customers and reputation.

    Went to this hotel yesterday. The quality of food is good. So, there's no surprise the price is little high. But the only drawback is that the food arrives late.

    A sudden plan to treat myself in weekend that too with veg food. I thought let's try A2B by delivery in room. When I saw the packaging I overwhelmed for one person this much big and I was excited to see what's inside. When started opening I amazed with the food quality, fragrance of desi ghee and lot n lot of variety of gravy, sweet. That was soo mouth watering delicious and it makes my day keep going guys.

    Good place for veg lovers. Quality of food items makes it best place to visit. As it is located at ground floor of Ashok Nagar metro station it will be crowded for most of the times especially Morning and evening times. Rate of a meal @ 20 May 2019 131 INR and chapati a set INR 63. If you are visiting as a couple it will cost you 250 INR. Sweets and savouries were other speciality of A2B??. Above located is Ashok Nagar well maintained metro station. Don’t forget to trip somewhere around in the ? metro ?.

    Very poor North Indian food. Dont ever try here. Even, south i dian dosa has plainstuffed aalo. Sweets are below standard as per price. Not at all good. Sangeetha is better than A2b. Dal fry is more of water than dal πŸ˜„

    Worst ever A2B experience ever. I had always been a fan of A2B sweets and bought sweets from this outlet for a family friend and my home. I also bought three badam milks and only one was good. The other two were stale. Also most of the sweet were old and to be used by the same date. So literally only old stock was available. Never expected this from a reputed shop like A2B

    Usually i like to eat in A2B... Today I bought one sambhar sadham .. please look in to this picture.. not even 2 spoon of rice was there .. only full vegetables.. veggies also very big sizes ... Very much disappointment 😞

    During my school days i used to have butter naan and panner butter masala here and i wil always carve for this dish and compared to then and now i feel there is a changes in taste and food quantity. Still i wil always love for this dish only at this branch ! Bit cosy but okay i spend for my taste buds !

    Foods nice. Doesn't have its own car parking. U have either park it somewhere near to the main road or inside metro station parking. Overall ok

  • 3/5 Kamalesh K. 4 years ago on Google
    The proximity to the Metro station and the very helpful staff are the strong points. Food is the usual stuff without much fanfare. It is always crowded and if you are looking for some peace and quiet, this is definitely not the place.

    Bearers are not local residents. Very lethargic attitude. Supervisors are very casual and do not care customers sitting and waiting for the bearers. Bearers are simply cracking jokes among themselves about the people coming over there particularly ladies. Bearers do no listen to our requirements.
