Kutumba Kitchen — Restaurant in Bengaluru

Oh my! Where do I start? We ordered for Kosambri, Bendi fry, Akki Rotti, Ghee roast, Nalli and Mushroom biriyani.

The Kosambri was a sham, it had rotten coconut which had a weird stench coming out of it. Next the The Bendi fry, it felt much like Bendekayi Bonda if ever something like that existed. All this was still acceptable and what followed screamed out loud " Picture abhi Baaki hai mere dost"

Much to our surprise the mains arrived without the akki rotti. We kept waiting for an hour atleast for it to come. We gave up after making 5 requests with the staff to provide us with our order. And what about the mushroom biriyani? The staff claim to they gave it to another table. I can understand small mishaps can happen when it comes to service when the staff isn't properly trained but 5 reminders went in vain and that is unacceptable. I have never experienced a worse service than this in my long career in the food industry. I tend it to be merciful but not this time. We were billed for the Egg ghee roast(which had no ghee nor was it roasted) n the Nalli even though we couldn't eat it because there was no bread to eat with it. I did pay for them though. I did give my honest feedback to the person sitting at the billing counter but he had no apologies or acceptance. 0 marks for hospitality and service. And pity the staff for getting screamed at by most tables, I would probably blame the management for not giving them the right training.

P.S: I was recommended to try the restaurant by the friend of the owners(Mr Rakshith n Meghana). I honestly made it a point to visit your restaurant to encourage you guys but you aren't worth it.

If you’re looking for a place that serves both mouthwatering vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes with equal mastery, look no further than KUTUMBA on BEL Road. This restaurant is a true hidden gem that offers not just a meal, but a memorable dining experience.

From the moment you walk in, you’re welcomed with warmth and genuine hospitality. The ambience strikes a perfect balance between cozy and vibrant – ideal for both casual outings and family dinners.

The food? Absolutely stellar. The vegetarian options are incredibly flavorful – each dish bursts with authenticity and care. Whether it’s their rich North Indian gravies, crunchy starters, or aromatic biryanis, every bite reflects quality ingredients and expert cooking. For non-veg lovers, KUTUMBA doesn’t hold back. The chicken and mutton dishes are perfectly spiced, tender, and cooked to perfection. The biryanis are a must-try – layered, fragrant, and deeply satisfying.

What truly sets this place apart, though, is the people behind it. A heartfelt shoutout to Rakshit, the owner – a gracious and passionate host who genuinely cares about every guest’s experience. He’s hands-on, humble, and always eager to ensure that everything is perfect. And the manager, equally wonderful – attentive, courteous, and efficient – making sure service is smooth and every table is well taken care of.

KUTUMBA is more than just a restaurant – it’s a reflection of hospitality, flavor, and heart. Whether you’re a vegetarian or a meat lover, this is one spot you’ll keep coming back to.

Highly recommended. 5...

Kutumba Kitchens is the kind of place where you sit down, stretch your legs, scroll through the menu and enjoy your meal. Its for the day where you don't bother Swiggy or Zomato to bring it to your doorstep. It’s a well-lit, well-groomed and thoughtfully designed space. Calm and quiet, with an ambience that invites you to calm down and savour.

Mutton Biryani was just amazing! I must say the meat quality across dishes is undeniably excellent. I had the chance to speak to the man behind it all, Rakshith Mohan. He shared that fresh meat is brought in daily. Nothing is frozen, nothing hits the chest freezer and that shows. Every piece is consistently well-seasoned and cooked to perfection.

If you’re exploring native to Karnataka cuisines, Kutumba Kitchens is worth every visit. Go with an open mind, try the thalis and the slow-cooked specials and as I mentioned before, chuck the Swiggys and Zomatos for the day. This is where you sit for your meal. And don’t leave without trying the Elaneer Payasa. It's the perfect, gentle finish to a hearty meal.

Kutumba kitchen is a true celebration of Karnataka’s native flavours. Its not the place to visit only once, its the place where you visit everytime...
