Gurudev Restaurant — Restaurant in Gujarat

🍛 Classic South Indian Spot in Vadodara – A Budget-Friendly Nostalgic Experience 🍛

If you’re searching for a no-fuss, pocket-friendly place for a hearty South Indian breakfast or brunch in Vadodara, this old gem is worth a visit. Known as one of the oldest running restaurants in the city, it brings back pure 90s vibes — simple furniture, 4 tables, no flashy interiors — just food and memories.

The must-try items here are Idli-Vada with Sambar, served hot and fresh. While the sambar is on the sweeter side and not fully authentic to Southern taste, it's still enjoyable for the price you're paying. The overall flavor is decent and satisfying, especially when you're looking for a quick and affordable bite.

The prices are super reasonable, making it a popular spot among students, locals, and old-time customers. Service is fast, staff is polite, and you’ll feel that old-school warmth that modern cafes often miss.

It might not be a place to hangout with your friends, but for the price and consistency (especially knowing this place has stayed good for decades), Gurudev Restaurant is definitely worth a visit for South Indian...

Very aunthentic south Indian outlet which I have seen at least for 50 yrs. The food quality and the taste is as nice as you wish for. There is no change in any system since yrs. Same place, same sitting arrangements, same kind of service and same tasty food. The best thing and applicable to most of the ppl is that all the items are at very very reasonable rate. You just can not think that actually that can be at so much low price. But still they have not compromised on quality. Only thing you can not get much sofistication there. All mornings and more specially Sunday mornings there is a huge crowd for breakfast which is really very very enjoyable. My only suggestion for them is to get it renovated and make it in a little...
