I love waffles. Especially the classic waffle which is usually fluffy, drenched with maple syrup. It used to be my daily breakfast for some time when I was away from home.
I have been seeing most of the good waffle shops disappearing these days, thanks to Corona. Waffle Stories at Jayanagar and BTM layout shut shop recently. One small store in BSK 2nd stage, close to Bata showroom shut shop too. It's now Goli Vadapav.
Had never been to XO Belgian Waffle until yesterday night. I called Sai Skanda, the owner before I went there. The owner spoke pleasantly, gave us the directions and provided the timings of the store as well.
The store itself is very neatly maintained and the staff is courteous and provided a good understanding of what was what in the Menu. Also, the pricing was too good to be true.
We ordered 4 Classic Waffles and a few additions to it. I was expecting a mouth watering delight. Unfortunately, when the waffle arrived... It just did not meet the expectations. The waffle itself was really thin and double layered. The maple syrup was alarmingly insufficient. I have seen waffles where they are literally soaked in maple syrup.

I see a huge scope for improvement and I really am very hopeful that the owner makes the changes as this is the closest to my home. I don't mind paying an extra twenty to thirty rupees for a...

I ordered Nutella waffle and it was loaded with Nutella. But the size of Nutella could have been bigger. I felt the portion size was very less for price. Waffle had right consistently but was little sweet. It tasted really good with ice cream. Nutella hot beverage did not have Nutella taste in it. It tasted more like hot chocolate but it was not bad. It was rs 175 but the quantity was very less. It was not worth the money. They charge rs 30 extra for the plastic glass that the give. I expected a glass bottle like how they provide in frozen bottle but it was very...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreI'm reviewing the food and service at 10:40 pm, 24th of aug 2023. I wanted to order Waffle Honey with vanilla ice-cream, but the one who took order in the counter was rude, not at all polite and not friendly at all. He don't know Kannada also. Hope the concerned person can see this review and help him with communication training and teach him to treat customers well. So that customer can come repeatedly and also he will be happy with food and service, and the restaurant can get good business too. Hope you will not loose customer...
