WHAT THEHEEBEE SAYS ABOUT PUROHIT RESTAURANT, MYSORE I visited Purohit Restaurant during my visit to Mysore last year. This is a delayed post, but I am happy to see that reviews round the year have been consistent with my experience. This is a small restaurant located in a busy locality of Mysore, yet close to many tourist attractions, markets and popular hotels. My stay was in hotel Sandesh The Prince, but having read so much about Purohit Restaurant, I made it a point to come down for meal one day. And the most encouraging reason what this being a Gujarati dining restaurant and me being a Gujarati, there was always a soft feeling to visit here. As mentioned by the owner they serve PURE VEGETARIAN food that comprises of Gjarati, Rajasthani and Mumbai cuisine! I found the majority of guests splurging on Gujarati Thai and I had also decided for the same. It is a small but cozy setup and the owner, a humble old man is there to take care of comfort of all the guests. We had called him to get direction to the place and google map also shows precise location. So reaching here is hassle free. As we took up our seats, we were served clean washed and dried set of utensils. Unlimited thali comprised of lip-smacking Gujarati dishes - 3 types of curries (Sev Tameta, Mix Veg and Moong), Gujarati Dal, Gujarati Kadhi, two types of breads (Fulka Rotli and Jowar Rotlo), one helping of sweet (Gulab Jamun) and farsan (Gujarati Dhokla) each. Aam Ras (Mango pulp) was available at an extra nominal cost. Pickle, Green chilies and cut onion were complimentary accompaniments. Food was amazing in taste, very fresh and healthy with limited oil and balanced salt and spices. We ate till our heart's content. Just outside the restaurant there is a small setup where a person sells amazing Paan (Betel leaf mouth freshener). We picked up one each and went back to our hotel with amazing nostalgic memories of Gujarat. I strongly recommend visiting Purohti Restaurant for healthy, fresh, rustic authentic Gujarati food. This is surely going to be my pit stop whenever I visit Mysore. Signing Off Hiral Amodia (TheHeeBee)

A very hyped basic thali restaurant. Amazing hot rotis but the rest of the thali was extremely basic for ₹250 for a Sunday. We reached early around 11:30 thinking we will have a stomach full with great variety n taste. However for a Gujrati thali it was a NO NO! Thali had - aalo matar- aalo was partially cooked, 1/5 paneer beans sabji 2/5, dal -2/5 some rajma gravy with curd, 1/5 sev tomato sabji came later but partly cooked n taste was so so, tomatoes half cooked. 0/5 Apart from this they served dry besan mirchi dry sabji, dry peanut chutney, curd n tasteless green chutney. NO Chaas/ buttermilk, it was charged separately. Sweets were - gulam jamun n Shrikand - 2/5. Dhokla came later with no chutney They FORGOT to serve us papad n dahi wada which I overheard the owner talking on the phone. Rice - pulav which was cold, n plain rice NO khichadi kadi for a Gujrati thali is a surprise. A usual Gujrati thali must have buttermilk, khadi khichadi n papad, bhajiyas. Overall only rotis were nice rest was 2/5 to fill your stomach. Very basic taste no gujrati taste at all. Kindly check before you decide to eat there! P.s - We click good photos so the thali looks ok in the picture

Don't come here if you visit this place often. They are used to taking rates from you and forget to serve you. I'm coming to this place every month, these people are addicted to taking money from you and every month I experience that i have to bargain for service and money. They give Gujarati food as unlimited thali with potato sabji The next morning this potato subji will also be served with thepla. One thali cost is also high in comparison to the food they serve. No parking facility is available here even though I try to adjust with their limitations as i feel that they are like my friends, but they take advantage of your friendship for their profits. Rooms are in good condition, no doubt of cleanliness. I'm very disappointed with their service that i visit every month here and i have to face all things.

There are a plethora of options for lunch if you find yourself around Mysore Bus-stand. Here is why Purohit Resturant stands out. They have the option of both Thali's and À la carte. I tried the Gujrati thali and it was amongst on of the best lunches I've had in Mysore. You get unlimited ghee lathered roti's. The plate in my review picture is missing dhokla and papad. Later, you get unlimited rice and a small portion of pulao. All in all, it's a great place with tasty and quality rich food. I feel this place is underrated due to the sea of restaurants around. Give this one a try! Side note: It has clean washrooms as well :p

I was excited at the idea of gujrati food in Mysore. Don't expect anything fancy. This was a basic restaurant below the rooms. They had a a la carte menu but we went for a thali. The food was in itself very simple and good, especially the dal and kadhi. They also had two desserts and dahi vada. They had thin phulkas with ghee and bhakri. The service was friendly but not very neat. At times they thulped the food onto the plate.... trickling dal and veggies on the table and the plate. Sometimes a bearer just stood staring. This was all a bit irritating but i overlooked it for the sake of the experience and food.
