Thyme & Whisk | Pure Veg Restaurant — Restaurant in Karnataka

It’s not often you find a place that changes how you feel about vegetarian food. Thyme and Whisk, tucked away on the second floor of Skywards Sun Park opposite Wipro Gate 15, did exactly that. A purely vegetarian restaurant in today’s world dominated by meat-centric menus is not just refreshing—it’s hopeful. And they’re not playing safe here either.

Walking in, the ambiance instantly sets a calming tone—subtle, modern, and thoughtfully done. But the real magic begins when the dishes start landing on your table. The plating is no less than what you'd see in a fine dining setup, and the variety is astonishing. Sizzlers, baked mains, appetizers, even the way they do simple Indian gravies—it all has flair, flavor, and finesse. As someone who used to believe vegetarian food was limited in imagination, I was pleasantly proven wrong.

Each dish feels like it has a story. The smoky sizzler we ordered could fool a die-hard meat lover in both texture and depth of taste. The paneer was tender and beautifully marinated, the continental offerings had personality, and there’s a clear attention to layering flavors that you rarely see in casual vegetarian joints.

Just one bit of feedback—our dal makhani and roti came much later than the other dishes. By the time it arrived, we were nearly done with everything else. It slightly broke the flow of the meal. If the team can synchronize the service a bit more so everything arrives together, it would round off the experience perfectly.

That said, everything else was spot on. From the cheerful staff to the overall cleanliness and pricing that feels reasonable for the quality and experience, it’s the kind of place you’d want to keep coming back to. Whether it’s a cozy dinner with family, a casual work meetup, or just a day when you want to treat yourself to good vegetarian food that feels special, this is where I’d point you.

Thyme and Whisk has redefined how I see vegetarian dining—it’s not about what’s missing on the plate, it’s about what’s done with what’s there. Full points for creativity, care, and...

Net nett: just go to Sarjapur Road outlet and avoid this outlet unless you want to eat half the quantity for paying the same amount.

First, I have been Thyme & Whisk's regular customer for Sarjapur Rd branch for last 4 years. Have been big fan of their quality of food.. This was my first visit to their recently opened Electronics city outlet.

They are fleecing customers by charging same menu as Sarjapur Road but they provide just half the portion size of both the things I ordered. Their defense is the sizes are as per brand guideline but other outlets being old haven't adopted the same as it caused customer backlash

When I asked to serve the same size after showing the picture of Sarjapur Rd outlet (I visited and ordered the same dish there 10 days ago & remember it was same size as 2nd picture), they called Sarjapur Road outlet and said it might have been a mistake from that outlet.

Smoked 3 layer lasagna was served in a tiny bowl. Look at the dish size for the same dish in Electronics city outlet vs Sarjapur Road outlet.

Size of soup bowl was also just half. Couldn't take picture of that

I have also uploaded the bill of Sarjapur Rd dated 12-july (just 10 days ago) wherein I had ordered the same 2 dishes. Smokey 3 layer lasagna and Brocoli and Almond Cappucino. The serving size of soup was also half at Electronics City

Update: I received a call from the owner, she asked me to talk on common ground as the brand from Mumbai has these sizes given as guideline while Sarjapur outlet is using old guideline for last 4 years and they have not updated. They met with stiff resistance from customers on updating the size. I said, as a customer, what am I supposed to do? I would drive 5kms extra and be served full quantity for the same price instead of half.

My review of their service...

Extremely sub par food and experience at the newly opened ECity Branch. First of all, literally everything under the Indian food scene is available on the menu. That itself should have a red flag. Because ofcourse the kitchen is to rely on frozen items to deliver all these cuisines.

We ordered some mocktail and were told that the fellow who tends the bar hadn't arrived. For a restaurant that opens at 11.00 AM, a staff member had yet to show up at 12:30. We did end up receiving an extremely strong and super heavy on the syrup Raspberry Fizz. They were out of kombuchas too.

The water melon feta salad, such a simple, summery classic. You cannot go wrong! But when it was brought to our table, it was covered with limp, brownish lettuce, had tonnes of capsicum and NO feta or walnuts in sight, as the description in the menu promised. When I pointed it out, the message from the kitchen I got was that they have another variety of walnuts that are bitter, chalega?? I didn't know what to say!

The Lebanese pizza looked promising. However, I am pretty sure it was brought out frozen and then heated in the oven. Imagine how a pizza looks the next day when you have to heat it? The toppings seemed dehydrated and crust was extremely crunchy, almost like khakra and very thin. It came covered in a clotch with a piece of burning coal, which I think is the newest trend in town.

A newly opened restaurant and already a broken soap dispenser in the bathroom?

People come to eat at restaurants for fresh food and not just ambience and music. These days, people have a lot of exposure to authentic food and know what to expect. And they know what to demand for the money they are paying. Don't take them for a ride! How hard can it be to serve fresh food? Do...
