Sai Bhavan - Carrolton — Restaurant in Carrollton

Enjoyed our evening celebrating a wedding anniversary (#55) and Father's Day. Hubby wanted Chicken Tikka Masala. So we ordered a variety of chicken and mutton dishes, a couple of rice, all three varieties of Naan (we liked the butter & garlic best), and bean & spinach dip. We also had 4 servings of desert. Was kind of a crispy funnel cake & with a delicious syrup. The owner gifted us with 4 of their sweet stuffed "pancakes" stuffed with sweet potato or squash? Delish. I didn't get a receipt - so I can't tell what we ordered. Wanted to sample several menu items. We had plenty of take home. 🤩

It was easy to pack up leftovers. The owners were accommodating and patient explaining the various menu items. We'll know what to order next time and have an idea about portions. The portions are generous. Lots of families joined us - and there were plenty of pickups. The atmosphere is clean and bright. The owner and staff were accommodating and hospitable. A great experience.

Although we did not use handicap parking - the parking was level and plentiful. Having a level cutout at the front door was helpful. Especially if we need a walker.

Nice to have Indian...

This was our second visit to Sai Bhavan Restaurant, and once again, it was an absolute delight. The selection of vegetarian options is impressive. We tried the Karam Dosa, which comes with three varieties of chutneys and a Sambar, and the Avakkai Paneer Biryani, which was excellent. Despite not favoring overly spicy foods, we found these dishes to be perfectly suitable for our palate.

The staff is courteous, especially the gentleman at the cash counter who kindly inquired about our dining experience. Their tea is also very good.

If there is an area for improvement, it would be the volume and content on the TV. While the staff made an effort to change the video to something more appropriate for families, the selection in their playlists was quite jarring. Choosing something more suitable for children would enhance the dining atmosphere.

I recall that on our first visit, they generously offered us Pulihora and Curd Rice for free, which was a lovely gesture to welcome a new customer.

They also have Bharateeya - Telugu Vari sweets and snacks which are worth trying.

Overall, Sai Bhavan is a gem for vegetarian food lovers, and we look forward to...

We recently placed a large order with Sai Bhavan for a group of 35 people, and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. Given that we were transporting the food to a State Park nearly two hours away, the team was thoughtful in offering menu options that would travel well and stay fresh.

For lunch, we chose a simple yet delicious vegetarian spread—mango pulihora and curd rice, complemented with sides like pickle, raita, and fryums. The highlight of the meal was the Bobbatlu—rich in flavor and perfectly made, they were a hit with everyone in the group. Everything was flavorful and perfectly spiced, just as we had requested.

For dinner, we had chapatis with chole, a combination that needed to hold up through the Texas heat until the evening—and it did beautifully. I was initially a bit anxious about how it would fare, but Sai Bhavan exceeded expectations.

The quantity was spot on, with absolutely no wastage. We sincerely thank the Sai Bhavan team for their attention to detail and for helping make our Dharmic gathering smooth and memorable with such...
