Basari Dining & Banquet — Restaurant in Pune

As a Punekar with a family in the city, there is no thali restaurant that I have not visited. Basari Dining - can easily be termed the worse performing. If you live in Warje - Karve Nagar area, SWAMI DINING next to McDonalds is far superior.

Service - IT DOES NOT EXSIT. I personally, never got falka again, after sitting for 10 mins blank. Poori came once, and never again. You can see the waiters standing near the washroom area and chilling, but not serving. A few reviews here talk about this aspect - SERVICE IS MISSING. We went at 7.15PM, and it wasn't even half occupied, and still no service. Of us 6 diners, none was able to complete the meal flawlessly. We had to keep sitting for sabji, or falka to arrive. Didn't feel like a Thali restaurant at all. The staff seems untrained.

Sabji - Paneer, Bhindi, One green sabji (which was sweet - and no one ate), Rajma (which most people don't eat at night).

Rotis - Phulka & Poori only ( 4 of us got poori only once and after our meal was almost over. Only 2 got poori at start. No rotla, or paratha, or pooran poli or any other kind of roti.

Papad - wasnt given, chutney wasnt given at start, no salad served.

Quality - Taste of the sabji was fine. But as we could eat only 2 sabji's, I could not see the point of all this. Parking - They have a board that says Valet, but I could not see anyone. On a Sunday evening, the area is packed and I could not find space around the restaurant. As I live nearby, I went back home and parked the car and came back on bike. My parents walked back...

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Hotel Basari, and I was blown away by their exceptional Veg Thali system! As a vegetarian, it's often challenging to find a hotel that serves a diverse and satisfying meal. But Hotel Basari exceeded my expectations in every way.

The Veg Thali was a culinary masterpiece - a harmonious blend of flavors, textures, and presentation. Each dish was expertly prepared, and the variety was impressive. From the creamy dal to the crispy rotis, every bite was a delight. The staff was attentive and accommodating, ensuring that my dietary preferences were met with a smile.

What sets Hotel Basari apart is their commitment to quality and freshness. The ingredients were locally sourced, and the chefs took pride in their craft. The Thali system was flexible, allowing me to choose from a range of options to suit my taste buds.

The hotel's ambiance was warm and welcoming, with clean and comfortable rooms. The location was convenient, making it easy to explore the surrounding area.

In conclusion, Hotel Basari's Veg Thali system is a game-changer for vegetarians and food enthusiasts alike! If you're looking for a culinary experience that will leave you feeling satisfied and inspired, look no further. I can't wait to return and indulge in their delicious...

Visited on gudipadwa. Food taste was good. Service was poor. The hotel is understaffed. Had to call the servers and wait as there seemed only 1 server for every dish for the entire hotel. At the start, they serve literally 1 small spoon of vegetables as u can see in the pic. These get over with 1 bite of fulka. As service was poor, had to wait for the server. I had got their menu in the afternoon itself which mentioned ukdiche modak, katachi amti and bajricha rotla but it was not served in the thali. Dal was being served as katachi amti 🤦🏻‍♂️. Have attached pic for reference. Had to ask for tissue papers and glasses. Worst thing was the server gave us the empty glasses with his fingers inside the glass. If this basic hygiene thing is lacking in your service industry, the quality of food though good, doesn’t matter. Aamras was way too sweet. Welcome drink of kokam sarbat was bland. Totally tasteless.

About ambience- very congested, quite small place and the worst part was AC was not working or was not set to proper temperature. It was very hot in there. Being a summer night and totally packed place, AC should have been put on at maximum. Overall an average experience. Only one time visit...
