Mutton Chops + Chilled Beer = Nirvana
Last Thursday a bunch of us from work decided to eat diner together. We called up Barbeque Nation, Samarkand and the likes but tables weren't available till 9:30 pm. Suddenly we remembered Angeethi and they were available. I suspect that all the nice places are busy because of Business Dinners and since Angeethi doesn't have the upscale ambiance, its easier to get a reservation.
Anyways, I have been to Angeethi lots of times for lunch but not very often for dinner. We ordered chicken kebabs, mutton chops and some veggie stuff which I conveniently ignored. The mutton chops in Angeethi are the best that I have had almost anywhere. The meat is soft, juicy and the spices are great. Don't miss them if you like mutton. Combine that with chilled beer and you are talking nirvana.
The main course was Dhaba Chicken (chicken cubes in spicy gravy), dal tadka and a paneer dish that I again didn't pay any attention to. The chicken was great as well and combined with the hot tandoori rotis, it was perfect. One point about rotis at Angeethi. They are whole wheat rotis (like they should be) and dough doesn't have maida like lots of other hotels in Bangalore.
I loved the place. It is not a place where one would like to go for a date or for business dinners but fantastic place to go with friends and family and enjoy the food. BTW, if you are a vegetarian, the food isn't out of the world there. My recommendation is based on non-veg food.
Avoid the paan there. Regulars at Angeethi do not eat the paan offered there because they charge obscene amount for that. Just come down to the street and buy it from the shop right next to Empire. The pans there are great.

Bad Valet service
We were all excited to go check out the buffet yesterday, but we couldn't even enter the premises as we were left waiting for a valet for over 30 minutes, and that too, with two cars ahead of us waiting for a valet too!
Now it's all fair about the fact that there is extreme congestion, valets are busy trying to find parking space, but to offer valet service AND display perfect apathy to the situation, show no concern or understanding about the frustration and even looking grumpy is just not on. We left and went on to Sikander (thank god for parking space), but frankly, even if we had got lucky and got parking soon enough at Angeethi, the food would just not have been palatable.

Perfect Buffet Destination
Angeethi is the near perfect Buffet Destination. For a Perfect buffet outing one needs to wear a Gourmand's hat, and Angeethi not only gives you that hat but gives that to you in quite a desi style.
The decor reminds you of a Dhaba but its nothing new, every other punjabi food destination tries to emulate a dhaba, but one thing I like are the movie posters, reminded me of the dialogues while eating. The place is cramped and is mostly overcrowded at lunch time, so its good if a prior booking for a table is done. Or another workaround can be coming around 12'o'clock.
Now the food, Buffet Lunch offers everything you can think of, Non-Veg items include-Fish,Chicken and Mutton in some form or the other. Fried Fish was quite tasty, with the Chicken gravy good too. By the way I don't eat mutton but my friends said that the Mutton-Biriyani they served that day was quite good.
Rest you will be served, couple of Paneer items, another Veg item here and there, good veg starters in some Chana Tikkis, Papdi Chaat and Dahi Vadas. Overall quite filling if you look at it in totality. The desert is usually GulaabJaamun with icecream, of which the GulaabJaamun was really hot and soft.
From what I have heard the menu remains more or less the same, but if you want a day out which involves fun while eating and you just want to eat your brains (or rather stomach) out
visit Angeethi.
Prices are around Rs. 150-160 plus taxes for a buffet lunch. About regular course I have no idea.
P.S- Do take a fresh lime soda after the meal, it would be quite necessary :)
P.P.S- Don't buy a paan ( a necessity after such a meal) here its too over priced, just go down and you would get a cheap and good enough Paan shop.

The buffet is good here
This place is on the roof top of Museum Inn on museum road.
The food is good but the same cannot be said about the service. I thought it was overpriced compared to the food and quality of service. If you want to enjoy here I would suggest the buffet, which is not very expensive and has a wide variety of dishes.
Buffet costs around 125 bucks. But try and get there early coz there is waiting after 1:30. One of the few places where the buffet is on Saturday as well.

For the dhaba feeling
Movie posters, charpoys and Hindi music create the ambiance of Punjabi dhaba in the heart of Bangalore. The value-for-money lunch buffet is very huge and very popular - paneer dishes, rotis, mutton are worth trying. The wait is long but worthwhile if you are in the mood for a fun outing and are not counting your calories.
