Good Buffet
I went in for their Lunch buffet and found it subtle and light and healthy when I walked out. It is for that refined vegetarian experience of South Indian cuisine.
Appam was sweet and light, and the vegetable stew was subtle. Their Mango milagu (chili) was good.
Overall a small quite place for a lazy weekend buffet.

Where a simple stew takes an hour to arrive...
My colleagues have been discussing this upmarket Indiranagar restaurant for weeks on end. They had mixed experiences but unanimously agreed the food was overpriced. I decided to try this one out for the sake of my south-indian-food-loving husband.
This restaurant is touted to be giving a fine dining edge to South indian food. we went in for dinner and ordered a la-carte.
We ordered a Tomato Soup which they choose to call a godsmangled "thakkali chaaru", Vazhaipoo cutlet, appams, stew and neer dosa. The soup and cutlet arrives soon enough. They are passable and does not justify the price in any way. i decide to overlook that, hoping for a better main course.
Ah, the main course that doesn't arrive until an hour later. The manager and the waters were not even apologetic about it. Finally we take a bite and realize that the coconut used in the stew is rotten. The manager went around asking everyone except us the same old "how-is-the-food" He cleverly avoided us, because he was sure he would get a piece of our mind!
We didn't create a scene, paid the 730+ rupee bill and quietly and left deciding to never step foot in their pretentious restaurant every again.
I have seen such wonderful service in small eat-and-go darshinis and these waiters and managers have to learn a thing or two from those people who know how to treat their customers.
But of course if your restaurant's main goals include giving fancy names to the dishes and pricing the dishes so high to attract the fat-pockets, I can understand how you would miss simple details such as serving good food to people who pay through their teeth.

Moolah!!!
Expensive is not the word! But the cuisine consisting of Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu and Kerelean dishes are great to taste. They have some rare concoctions like Dumpaala Kaaram, Kulipaniyaaram. Worth visiting once!! But ensure your wallet is well loaded!

What south indian should be....
I've read the reviews knocking this establishment down pretty awful.
The fact that it is in a posh location doesn't mean that the decor should resemble a 5-star place. If you notice, this was a house earlier that has been converted to a restaurant.
I've been here thrice, all for the lunch buffet. The food seemed authentic enough for my grandma (kerala descent), wife (true blue malnad) and in laws to praise lavishly. Of course, if you are used to your traditional anna-sambar, you may want to look elsewhere and not bother with this place.
The subtleties in the taste are truly worth a visit. At around 270 for the lunch buffet, it is worth every paisa.

The husband and I were eagerly awaiting the non-vegetarian offerings from South Indies. That it is walking distance from our place was a huge bonus!
We had dinner there yesterday. The appalam basket with the three different chutneys (coconut, coriander and tomato) was to our liking. We ordered a prawn soup and a mangalorean chicken starter. Both the soup and starter were very good. For the main course we ordered karimeen polichattu and a crab curry (tamil nadu section) along with an appam stuffed with crabmeat. The karimeen was a little smelly but the crab was really tender, juicy and tasty. It was a little too spicy for me. The service was excellent. They noticed the frequency with which I was downing water to beat the spice and offered to replace the gravy with a milder one :)
We ended our meal with Elaneer Payasam which was absolutely heavenly. It was sweet coconut milk with pieces of coconut malai! At the door we were gifted with our first ever plant. All in all, a very nice experience. It also happened to be our most expensive bill as yet. It came to about Rs 2,000 for the two of us. The menu could do with some expansion. The menu offers one chicken, mutton, prawn and fish preparation from each state.
