S G Rao's Military Hotel — Restaurant in Bengaluru

Visited the place for lunch around 1 pm. Very small outlet with around 4-5 tables in the ground floor (not sure if service is available in the 1st floor). The locality n everything inside the hotel (including the wall clock n the cups on the table) give it a yesteryear vibe.

Ordered Mutton pulav n Mutton udayagiri.

Mutton pulav was warm not too hot and the quantity was good. Mutton pieces in the pulav were tender n well cooked. The number of pieces is also worth the amount we pay for the pulav. The pulav rice was flavourful yet not very spicy - the mild kind whose taste lingers in mouth n mind alike.

Mutton udayagiri was finger-licking delicious (chicken variant also available). The dark green masala is strong n a bit oily, this being a semi-gravy dish can be enjoyed with parota/ragi mudde as well.

My initial impression of the pulav quantity was that it's going to be a very heavy meal. To my surprise after having it, I still had room for desserts on the way. Maybe it's the type of rice (non-basmati) and/or the absence of soda which add this quality.

Would definitely revisit to try other items...

After seeing the review section planned to visit hotel on Saturday reached hotel at 12 and it was empty thought it will be good to have food peacefully ordered mutton biryani, kheema, chicken udaygiri and chicken pepper dry at last plain soup. Mutton biryani - First time I could see a mutton biryani which is super cool at 12 PM and pieces were not cooked properly waste was very bad and I didn't like the rice they used and it was total disaster Kheema - you could easily play catch catch game with that so hard felt like it was cooked yesterday and served today. Chicken items were just spicy with no taste and at last I got beautiful hot water later my friend told it is plain soup which is another disaster, finally lost around 1k money for useless food and didn't get mood to take picture of food also. Don't believe in youtube reviews they're useless and only thing I wanted to take from that place was the reviews they had from Just dial and other source like paper reviews pasted on wall I wanted to take all those...

Hearing reviews of this restaurant made me visit this restaurant... Food was not so good tried chicken Udayagiri ,chicken and mutton palao ... Both were average could have rated to 3 or 4 ...if the guy who serves hasn't treated like he is giving food for free ... Didn't even had patience to stand ask for order ... When resturant had just 3 group of customers including us... All I was struggling to get catch of him to get the order ... There was no raita instead onion mixture was there ... When asked for some of it on top of what he served .. he said onion price has increased I can't ... If he had said with a polite smile I would have felt it's right ... Customer service is a thing and Instagram has spoiled some good restaurants to lose its elegance ... NOT EXPECTING A KING TREATMENT HAVE AUDACITY TO ATLEAST RESPECT THE PEOPLE TRAVEL AND PAY FOR FOOD WHAT THEY EAT ..... SERVE WITH ''LOVE" even a stale curd rice can make ur stomach feel full if it's...
