We went here for breakfast because of good reviews. However we were quiet disappointed with the quality and taste of food. The dosas, chutneys, sambar and vadas all below average. It was all self service and had to put our dishes away. Staff aren’t warm or welcoming. I was pregnant and asked for water while feeling very dizzy and didn’t get water for at least 15 mins. Then got super hot water that I couldn’t drink. No fans at all and I nearly fainted. Coming to the cost of the products, eg. dosa was Rs. 50 which is quiet ridiculous cause you can get masala dosas from very clean restaurants like Surguru for Rs. 90. The dosa was smelling weird and maybe made from old batter. Giving one star cause there is no option to give 0. It was a very bad experience overall.

Yummiest, healthiest, colourful food served on banana leaf with so much of love. A highly recommended vegetarian food. All juices are very fresh. Apparently most of food is grown in there sustenance farm

Nice meal, authentic and they serve you in banana leaf.

It's purely satvik place.. food is so good and soothing. It's not resturant, it's a farm kitchen, where they produce their own food and prepare it and serve with very nice hospitality. Must try their juices.. it's so original and soothing.

We didn't get a lot of items in the veg meal we got. Some of the items weren't available but they still charged us the same price for it. Had a very comforting meal. The tastes might not be for someone whole prefers their food masaledar.

It was almost like home made food. The average juice cost was re60 but breakfast items were little costly and there should be improvement required for seating area.

Good food, veggie, good price, chill environment. Just don’t appreciate the need to be barefoot if the floor is not clean.
