    Hotel is located in the main place in trichy inbetween trichy railway station and trichy central bustand. The hotel pure vegetarian. But not upto the level of other vegetarian hotel's around sraswathi. Paneer butter masala is the best dish in this hotel .other than that channa masala and other gravies are not good. tiffen items are good

    One of the good restaurant in trichy railway Junction area but need to improve much. Quality have to improve, quantity is enough. Road side parking only available. Always throngs with big crowd.

    The best restaurant. They maintain the Heritage food culture. I used to take food at this Restaurant in 1994-96 and on a few occasions even some time in Eightys. I like this restaurant fir the homely food and their hospitalities. Due to inflation the price of food items have become multifold year after years which can't be helped... everywhere. Value for money. Instead of eat-in in the railway station if I get a break at Thiruchy I used to take food(meals) at this restaurant .

    Saraswati Bhavan is a decent vegetarian restaurant near Tiruchirapalli Junction, it was our favourite breakfast joint once but now the quality is not that much good. Nearby, there's another one selling Coffee, Tea , Sweets and snacks.

A classic shop of Filter located exactly in middle between Trichy Central Bustand and Trichy Railway Junction. Early mrng with a Meethu vada and Coffee here will be an perfect morning bliss.

    Old and traditional Hotel but waning away slowly i think. Food was not very good and i could hear one supervisor openly saying that they are rife with lack of staff. I got my food served in time but for a traditional hotel of such experience the quality was not that good. Prime loaction just outside the Trichy Rly Station. Could be utilised well if the basics are taken care of well.

    It was very sad that one of the best hotel in trichy when I was kid and now it was not like that. This hotel is famous for thier authentic and delicious chutney but as of now that is not there as like old. It was in a below average taste. I am not writing this review after tasting a single time I have tried here nearly 3times in last 5months everytime I got disappointed. So that only i am writing this one. Let's hope for some changes in future.

    Nice vegetarian restaurant located near to Tiruchirapalli Junction Railway Station. Quality of food is good. People who served food here are also nice. They didn't reduced the food quality even at the closing time. Very good behaviour towards customers. The effort they are taking to maintaining the quality of food is appreciated.

    Early morning thought after coming out of Trichy Railway station , we can try a good food in Saraswathi Cafe but it was the blunder mistake I made as well on the start of the day… They charge ample amount of money for the products but they give Sweet Appam or Vada will be given only in new paper… I instated to give in a decent paper plates they not they will not give as per management in a rude way as well… We cannot walkout as well as the bill was made purchasing as well I would like to take this as a complaint to Food checking department and take necessary actions as well… 0% production value they give to Customers

    4.5 for food n service- Food tasted excellent, and service was amazing. If you opt for low oil or less spicy version of a dish for baby, they'll serve it too. Try the garlic podi dosai, chapati, fried rice or even normal and usually ordered items - all tasted well.. loved the chutneys served, kurma was great too.

    Great quality food, got a positive feedback by the relatives and friends for the food quality. we ordered for one family function and the food delivered on time, even we can say food delivered few minutes before the committed time by the cafe. I strongly recommend saraswati cafe for dining and party orders as well.

    Very good vegetarian restaurant near Trichy Railway station. Service is very fast. Especially our waiter 'Egan' was so polite and friendly. He explained about the dishes available in the restaurant very well as we were new to Tamilnadu food items. We ordered Aaapam which was served with coconut milk. It was so delicious. Poori Chole was also good.

    I went to dine here and I didn't have enough taste but I was fine that day with no stomach upset

  • 4/5 Rajesh K. 2 months ago on Google • 105 reviews New
    They provide food with good taste at an affordable price. Service is also satisfactory, they have a manager who is putting the leafs then comes the person to take orders - totally good service. They serve with 3 poori instead of 2 poor in a set that's a unique approach. Less than 1 min walk from outside the railway station. Also just ₹55 for dosa and poori sets 👍🏼 Only expectations are they can offer a Mini-tiffin.

  • 5/5 Hari H. 3 months ago on Google • 36 reviews New
    Tiffin dosa is best. Lunch meals are worth for 95rs. Overall a good restaurant. One negative they don't have space for parking. One 4-5 cars can be parked.

    I have ate night dinner here. I ordered One Small Onion Oothappam, One set Chappathi and one dosa, along with this Chutney, Sambhar and kurma given. Overall Dish is OK. I didn't stay here.

    Food is good at a reasonable price and the staff are well behaved. Must try if you just came to Trichy.

  • 4/5 Kailash 1 year ago on Google
    The chutneys served for idly and dosas were good. Located at a walkable distance from Trichy railway station and Trichy Central bus stand.

  • 4/5 sakthi v. 1 year ago on Google
    I gave 4 star for food, but the place is highly crowed. Servers are attentive, they quickly refil items. Cheap and best for taste.

  • 5/5 Vinatha I. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent tiffin. We had a very nice meal before boarding the train. Appam, idiyappam, chapathi with kurma and coconut milk. Ghee dosa. Everything was excellent. Will definitely visit when I'm in Trichy again

  • 2/5 Surendar D. 1 year ago on Google
    The cashier was throwing balance but we gave money it in hand, I didn't go there for beg!. Food was OK. But they took their decision if ordered item is not available. We ordered mini idly but they gave the usual idly in a cup and dumped it in sambar. Unsatisfied by the cashier response. The suppler's behaviour was nice. 👍

  • 4/5 sguru k. 1 year ago on Google
    My review is for takeaway. The food was packed well. Rice items tasted good. Mushroom dry items were good. Price is reasonable. Overall a good place for lunch.

  • 5/5 shreyan k. 3 months ago on Google • 4 reviews New
    Such an Amazing service done by Nishanth and his coworkers that I asked for his name to put a review, it made my day. Food was unbelievably fast like I was genuinely surprised and also very tasty. Overall, I highly recommended you guys to try this restaurant out.

  • 2/5 Naganathan N. 1 year ago on Google
    I visited this restaurant for coffee and snacks in the evening. The coffee was good and tasty, but unfortunately, the chutney for the vada was not fresh and had a stale taste. The atmosphere in the restaurant was peaceful, with a few seats available to sit and enjoy our coffee.

  • 5/5 RonRubs 6 months ago on Google

  • 3/5 VIJAY K. 1 year ago on Google
    I have booked this room to have a visit to Trichy... The room was Average and good. Situated very close to the railway station. Below they have a hotel to have some food. Cleanliness is Average, we didn't get a heater in the toilets. The rooms cost around 1000 for 24 hours check in. The staff are good and polite. Could be booked if you are going to spend only the sleeping time.

    Food was okay. For a traveller who shunts from Busstand to Railway Station this is okay. The staff do require to learn a little more patience and courtesy. Good quality 3.5/5. Cleanliness 4.5/5, Pricing 4/5, Ambience 4/5, Overall rating 4/5

  • 3/5 DEEPU R. 9 months ago on Google
    I never stayed here. Occasionally taken food since 2001 . From this experience the food quality is to be improved much better for the prices. Previously in evenings each day's special items displayed on the board were very nice. Nowadays trying regular items seems good

  • 4/5 mark k. 1 year ago on Google
    Very Good veg hotel near trich railway junction. Since morning 6AM you can get breakfast. If you have early morning train like pallavan, thsi is the palce to go and get parcel. Though little bit costly, the taste is good. they should improve their sambar little bit.

  • 5/5 Kailash M. 10 months ago on Google
    Top Notch Restaurant. Best in town. Best. You can have my words. Excellent service and proper quality typical South Indian food. Greatly recommended. Respect.

  • 3/5 Infant 1 year ago on Google
    *Decent clean food slightly a bit on the expensive side. *Too crowded, narrow path to walk in hotel. *Reliable and good hotel despite the crowd. That's why most people come here. *Parking also mostly full. *A/C Hall mostly closed. One Ghee Roast Dosa price - ₹73.5@Dining & ₹76@Takeaway/Parcel (As on April 8th, 2023)

  • 3/5 SENDIL S. 10 months ago on Google
    Normally at 9 pm all menu will be available. The steward in AC dining hall was not willing to share the list available. When we came out to pay, we saw people having all items in Non AC Hall. Bad experience

  • 4/5 SUCCESS M. 2 years ago on Google
    The place where you can feel food as home cooked. If you are vegetarian, please try here. Its budget friendly and no AC due to COVID.

  • 4/5 Vasanthakumar K. 2 years ago on Google
    Very famous Vegetarian Cafe in Tiruchirapalli near to Railway Junction and 600 Mts from Central Bus stand. If you want Quality & Tasty Veg Tiffin, Lunch & Dinner then Choice is Saraswathi Cafe. I think now a days the Customer Service is lagging than earlier. It may be due to crowd or the new Servers..! Veg Meals Rs.85.00. I am a customer since 2004.

  • 1/5 Jayaraja J. 2 years ago on Google
    Total disappointment. I'm having breakfast now. Thinking of leaving as it is. Really the food is a waste of money. Sorry. Now I have to go out and have some decent food outside

  • 1/5 Aruli T. 2 years ago on Google
    I think the management is concentrating only on the revenue, no staff training & etiquette follow-ups. Bad, and feeling hectic. Name can not prevail for longer days. Take it as a caution. Treat your employees good, so they treat the customers great. If you fail, they will surely fail. Low customer satisfaction can lead too, no business.

  • 5/5 JAYAKRISHNAN V. 2 years ago on Google
    Best restaurant in Trichy town; or near yo trichy junction railway station.Im regular customer here for past 5 years.Polote atttitude by the workers and management nice place .giving 5 out of 5 🤩😍😍...

  • 1/5 Sithirasenan M. 2 years ago on Google
    Ordered sambar rice and curd rice from this place on 13th Dec 21 only to end up trashing it. The food was really very bad, my best attempts to somehow eat it ended only in vain. Have written to them. Hope the place really improves to retain the good name it has earned.

  • 2/5 Monish M. 2 years ago on Google
    Had very bad experience in trying out Gobi 65 here. I have ordered through online yesterday taste was not bad. So, I tried even today for better response but ends up worst. There was huge difference in the price, when I ordered online the price was nearly 105, today when I went in-person and bought it, it is 68. Pls sort this out next time.

  • 4/5 Dnl N. 2 years ago on Google
    Breakfast is OK, lunch is nice and dinner would be the best because you have great varieties of Indian cuisine and Chinese veg cuisine.

  • 5/5 DEVAANANTH M. 2 years ago on Google
    Such best for dining. The taste of the food is very good and also with good hygienic standard. The price is very reasonable. They also provide online delivery on orders at the prime time with the help of swiggy and Zomato. Every foodie must try the taste of this hotel at once.

    Tiffin not good. One order chenna batura side dish channa was scarce. Taste not good. Sambar idly not up to the mark. Hotel with tradition losing its taste.

  • 5/5 Dr Aravind Murugesan (Doctor T. 2 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 KANNAN M. 2 years ago on Google
    Superb hotel. Variety of food items in breakfast ☕🍞. Place for car 🚘🚘🚘🚘 parking. Suppliers also good. Cost effective menu.

  • 1/5 KADHR K. 2 years ago on Google
    Looking nice and crowd is also ok, but Taste is simply Zero, nothing. I thing Trichy peoples having no better hotel other than this, that why they choose this.

  • 3/5 Ramya Devi R. 2 years ago on Google
    I ordered cashew pulao. Quantity is less. Even that's okay. But it had five cashews. And two handful of anise seeds(sombu). Kindly change the name to anise rice, not cashew rice. The entire food went to trash and dint even get a refund. The meals was good. Never order Cashew pulao, you will be disappointed.

  • 5/5 Nik's w. 2 years ago on Google
    The best of Authentic South Indian delicacies .... tasty sambar and Chutney varieties are a treat here ... speedy service and cordial behaviour by staff members.... all so sweetly smiling and delighted to serve you in a jiffy.... Very traditional and nominal and affordable pricing for all people... Keep it up guys for your good service...👍🏼

  • 4/5 Valarivan R. 2 years ago on Google
    Popular lunch outlet near Trichy junction established more than 3 decades back. No air-conditioned facility. Priced Rs.85.00 for lunch, they will do well to provide curd. Short of adequate man power during peak hours.

  • 3/5 N krisshna K. 2 years ago on Google
    These days their service is not good. Also food taste become bad when compare to 2yrs back. I was a regular customer. recently i had lunch hear 2 times, both the times, the food taste was bad and service also not that good. they just serving the ppl who come to eat food. Because of the demand in that prime location of trichy junction area. Its running with good crowd. Better try some other here after i think. Early i used to recommend this hotel to everyone who goes to trichy bus stand or railway station. Will have to choose other now.

  • 4/5 ROAD SAFETY W. 1 year ago on Google
    This is a boarding and lodging hotel. Went for it after going through Google reviews as we were looking for a place to spend the night before taking the morning flight. A decent place to stay but i wanted to share that there is no lift and the stairs to reach the hotel are very steep. The restaurant in the ground floor serves some wonderful vegetarian food at very affordable rates.

  • 4/5 Prasanna K. 1 year ago on Google
    This cafe is conveniently located near the Trichy Junction (Railway station) and the central bus stand. One of the main benefits of this place is they serve breakfast early in the day (starting around 5-530). There are not many good places near to get you a great early morning breakfast before your travel.

  • 1/5 Siva 1 year ago on Google
    We had dinner today,it was very worst and all chutney were tooooo spicey and sambar was tasteless. Idly had small small sticks in it,which came in between while eating.Dosa didn't get cooked at the center.When we complained ,no much response and the cashier said that we should not say it's tasteless or not good because the vegetables now a days are not so good as past years. I don't understand, what vegetables bother this hotel to make good coconut chutney. Didn't expect such a worst dish .As there is no way of choosing zero rating,1 was picked.

  • 5/5 Raghavendra K. 1 year ago on Google
    If u want to taste and experience the real vegetarian lunch on banana leaf, this is the place to go. I make it a point to visit here for afternoon meals whenever I am in trichy. Very tasty.

  • 5/5 s s. 1 year ago on Google
    Close to trichy Rly JN and Trlchy central bus stand. AC dining hall available. Rava Dosa is my favourite here. All hot stuff without delay get supplied. Price reasonable. No adequate space for Car parking. Lodging in first floor.

  • 4/5 pichu g. 1 year ago on Google
    Good vegetarian food especially for breakfast and dinner available. Located near the Trichy Junction and also near the Central Bus stand in the connecting road. Neat and clean dining hall.

  • 1/5 prakash v. 1 year ago on Google
    In the name of sambar idly they put a tea spoon of sambar of each idly. Look at the coconut milk i think its tea initialy then i taste it 🤧 and had vomit feel more overe for rava dosa they give lunch sambar.parato is good but the gravy the give is enough for one piece only.

  • 5/5 Pradeep S. 1 year ago on Google
