I recently had the pleasure of dining at Bansi Vihar, and I must say, it was a truly authentic South Indian experience. From the moment we walked in, the aroma of freshly made dosas and sambar filled the air, transporting us to the streets of Chennai. The service was warm and welcoming, with friendly staff happy to guide us through the extensive menu. We started with the classic Idli and Vada, which were soft, fluffy, and perfectly complemented by the spicy sambar and coconut chutney. A flavorful explosion. The Pav Bhaji was a masterclass in texture and taste. Soft, buttery pav paired perfectly with a rich, spicy bhaji made with tender veggies and a hint of sweetness. But the real showstopper was the dosa - crispy, golden, and served with a generous helping of spicy potato masala. It was love at first bite. A culinary delight. The dosa was a perfect blend of crunch and softness, with a delicate golden crust giving way to a fluffy interior. The flavors were authentic and rich, with a hint of fermentation. Paired with a spicy sambar and creamy coconut chutney, it was a match made in heaven. Each bite was a masterclass in texture and taste, leaving me wanting more. A must-try for any food enthusiast, this dosa was a truly unforgettable experience that showcased the best of South Indian cuisine. The prices were reasonable, and the portion sizes were generous. The atmosphere was cozy and intimate, with traditional South Indian decor adding to the ambiance. Overall, I highly recommend it to anyone craving authentic South Indian cuisine. Whether you're a fan of spicy curries or crispy dosas, this place has something for everyone. Can't wait to go back and try more of their delicious offerings.

Let's cut straight to the point- Ain't Worth It. Located on the south of Dak Bunglow Chowraha next to Buddha Smriti Park, this old school diner has very little to offer for what it demands. Pseudo-luxury and inappropriately claustrophobic. Had a long recommendation to try out the South Indian there, especially Masala Dosa. Utterly disappointed. Good for families or a small business meeting over lunch but nothing fancy. Straight up lounge, straight up food. The experience isn't that exuberant as well. For the price, there are quite a few restaurants these days that would indeed offer a better food, service and experience overall. As suggested, we walked in the super claustrophobic diner. Got ourselves a couple of seats and ordered what's been a folklore to the locals, that is their must try South Indian speciality. Took quite a time for our dosa to arrive though. Nothing special, small portions, bland taste, mediocre service. Nothing special at all after paying a special price!? Local food vendors offer better South Indian Dosas at half the rates. Other parts being a big bummer bring the water glasses served not washed properly, poor choice of paper napkins, waiters literally hanging on your neck for your entire dinner as there's absolutely no space whatsoever for them to stand aside. The ceilings' low and crammed. The "security" guard at entry gate is creepy AF for tips! Definitely a Big NO for me next time. Great place for retired officials and grandparents, but not for us. I'm not hating on the place itself. It's just that I feel my money went down the sewer. Nothing special. Just overpriced. No great food. No good service. Don't know what are they charging that high for. Also, for Dosas, I can name a dozen better places in Patna that would be way more VFM and with a "fine dine experience". Not recommended. But try for yourself.

Looking for South Indian cuisine at Patna ? What are you waiting for...just step in here... One of the best restaurant in Patna at just a walking distance from Patna Junction... Easily you can reach here...auto and battery rickshaw are available throughout the day... Very Tasty Dosa is handcrafted here...the masala of the dosa is well cooked...sambhar and chutney are also well flavoured..If you visit in the night..you may have to face diluted sambhar and chutney with disturbed flavour... Idly is very soft and just get dissolved in mouth within minutes... Do visit this place. Happy fooding 😊

The service of this restaurant is very bad, as I have taken parcels they packed in single bag and said that the owner has ordered to do single packing to save packing cost,as well as separate packing will not be given,very very rude behaviour as well as please confirm the rate as they charge taxes over the food,taxes is not included in that rate, and in menu card of all restaurants rate is inclusive of GST,if you have only 100 rs in pocket and after seeing the menu you eat food,at the time of payment they will say to charge taxes.Never ever go to that restaurant for your insult.

The place is big but they have put too many tables in it. The tables are so close to each other that you can read the chat of the person who is sitting on the table next to you. The place was crowdy and people were making a lot of noise. Not a place for couples. We just order coffee and it was terrific, the froth and the aroma were adding the starst to coffee and it costs us just ₹95 for two cups along with GST & other taxes. Can’t say about food because we have not tasted it, but the crowd of the place was shouting loud the glory of food. Do visit with family.

No other option than this for South Indian... Masala dosa and especially their coconut chutney is love... Butter onion masala dosa and fried idli are a must have... Special masala dosa with its special chutney is best... I also tried vegetable uttapam which was just best
