Don't go here expecting exotic Mughlai fare that the likes of Samarkand serve, but for real light, nourishing and tasty vegetarian food, very few places beat Ramana's. The hot phulkas here are really soft, light and fluffy (as mentioned before, it just melts in your mouth.) While the food includes the traditional fares, a few do manage some spunk. We tried the baghara baingan, tava vegetables and kairee paneer. We loved all of it. Specially recommend the kairee paneer which is a nice blend of sour with mild spice. And on the spice front, we tried the gobi manchurian here and were pleasantly surprised to find it mild enough for my daughter to enjoy (but damn tasty as well), so the food is definitely kid friendly. The mild spices and low amount of oil food is definitely a plus in my books though some people may find it too homely for their day out experience. But hey if you enjoy good vegetarian food and want a place that you can keep going back to, this is definitely one...
