"If you are looking for a vegetarian buffet with barbecue, then best place to have it. Lot of variety of food, live chats , unlimited barbecue feeling we are in barbecue nations or AB's . Cost wise cheaper than others. If we win the game they provide 100% discount coupon for next visit. When I said it is birthday, they bought cake which would be 250grms. Taste of cake is very good (unlike AB's very small size and no taste). Excellent food and good time to spend with family and friends while eating. Pizzaa is too awesome..."

"Bad location, but decent ambience – though it was quite smokey inside. For starters, the popcorn, pizza, and garlic bread were the only things that pleased my 8-year-old. The grilled items were plain and uninspiring. Salads were either too sweet or too bland, and the papdi chaat was soggy. The pasta was oddly sweet, and the rest of the main course was just okay. The dessert section was a big letdown – boring pastries, dry coconut halwa puddings, and gulab jamun. Nothing stood out, nothing tasted good. Adding to that, the crowd was unbearably loud. Maybe I went on the wrong day, but my experience was far from enjoyable."

"Food was very delicious, grilled items were ok but the others on the counter like potatoes , mushroom, baby corn starters were really yummy. Crispy corn, fries were very delicious Noodles and pasta targeting the younger customers are good and the rice and roti lovers will really love the food. Lots of desert option and my favourite hot jamoon with vanilla ice cream was right on spot After all the deserts, just to make our tummy comfortable and not to get sleepy finish with their Yummy one cup , hot, tangy and spicy rasam kicks off the after food hangover Never felt smoky inside as in other reviews and..."

"I had a fantastic dining experience at this pure veg Indian restaurant! The buffet spread was both generous and thoughtfully curated, featuring a delicious variety of North and South Indian dishes. From rich paneer curries to pizza and flavorful rice, every item was fresh, well-seasoned, and clearly made with care. The highlight for me was the live chaat counter—absolutely bursting with flavor! Their dessert section was equally impressive, with traditional sweets like gulab jamun, moong dahl halwa, and a refreshing mango custard. The ambiance is warm and inviting, perfect for families or groups. Service was prompt and courteous, with the staff checking in regularly to ensure everything was to our liking. My only (minor) critique is that a few items could have been a bit hotter, temperature-wise, but overall, it didn’t take away from the great experience. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a satisfying vegetarian feast!"

"Worst food and fell sick the next day - a big no ❌ First thing the food is horrible and could not eat anything peacefully. I would say the worst food I had in Bengaluru after spending 1200 for two persons. The quality is so bad that you try every item just to throw. BBQ veg options are even worse and donno how they named it mad over grill - its only justified to see people go mad over their food quality and taste. Second thing its a veg restaurant don’t confuse by name Third thing its a buffet restaurant- 600 per person unlimited veg food - you will only limit after eating the BBQ veg starters The only thing what I could eat is watermelon..."
