Its not everyday I would rate a place so low. Visited here on a Saturday afternoon. Chose this place only because they serve Jain cuisine in this area.It was crowded and took us some time to get seat, which is okay. However, there was no COVID appropriate guidelines followed. Seating was 100% of the capacity in a jam packed space. There was no proper leg room or even stomach room I can say when seated.The table was not clean as well and had to nudge twice to get it cleaned. We ordered a starter - Jain Baby Corn Manchurian, a main course - Jain Paneer Butter Masala along with Butter Roti and Butter Naan. It took more than 40 mins approx to serve the starter. And the plate used to serve - was not clean, and the second plate was also the same.We had to wait for another 15 more minutes to get the main course.We wanted lassi and the staff didnt know if it was available. We asked it when we first ordered and it took them almost an hour to confirm if it was available.The only reason I am giving 2 star was because the food was of good taste.When we were leaving, there was a big queue waiting to get in. There was a BBMP official too and I didnt understand what he was doing in the queue. Failed in performing his duty as well. I would not visit this place again for such a good experience I had.

I am writing this letter to file a complaint about the food that was served to me in your restaurant on 24-01-2021.I am sorry to inform you that your food was unsatisfactory at so many levels..You can see images also..the outlet which has allegedly been serving unhygienic food...

Outstanding customer service and very friendly staff. Too many options to choose from and the food is delicious too. Well prepared and freshly served. As a visitor the staff took time to explain to us the food and gave us some recommendations too.I highly recommend it if you are looking for rich food menu and satisfactory service..

Good Veg restaurant at Jayanagar. Both South & North Indian dishes. Sweets, snacks, chocolate, icecream...You ask are available. Both sit in and stand and eat. Parking may be a challenge sometimes...as its a main road. Good place to have quick eat. I have been coming here for many years... Service remains good .. people are good. Recommend for all types of veg dishes.

Review №16

Had been for breakfast here today after a long time especially after watching one of the food blogger post recently. Was completely disappointed with the experience.At times like these, all the restaurants are trying to improve their cleanliness and hygiene. But there is this restaurant which is least bothered about their cleanliness. From table cloth to crockeries everything looked dirty.The taste of the food was at par, but the attitude of the staff was equally pathetic as their cleanliness.Iconic Hotels like these shoul be more professional and customer friendly, but I guess they are really not bothered about the customer satisfaction but they are only here for the money.Note:This review is for the Service hall on the first floor

Bharjari bhojana @Upahara Darshini (UD) priced at 190rs gives you a run for money! If you are craving to have a marriage meal n have been missing it, then this is your place. Right from salt pickle, chutney, palya, kosambri as sides to curd rice... They will serve you until u say stop. Do try it.

Food is very very nice.Tried Idli-Vada for breakfast.They serve great quality dishes here.Seating facility is not available.Happy with visit to Upahara Darshini, Jayanagar.Staffs are good, we have to take coupon first for any Meals, Breakfast or Snacks.Party hall situated in first floor ( Its closed as of now 29/09/2020).Parking spaces are available for Two wheeler, four wheeler parking space is limited.

The Service section, the North Indian, Chinese and the Bharjari Oota all are okay.. .. except the South Indian self service section, there is something wrong.. either the idli or sambar or the tea, etc..It was not like this in the past.It is not upto the mark of the great and famous UD Brand (Group).

Review №26

There are four section if I am correct. One self service fresh south indian & north indian dishes, reasonably priced. Another section in the ground floor exclusively north indian & chat parcel counter, high tariff. Above there are two sections one AC restaurant serving tasty south & north indian dishes with service. The other side of the first floor is full special meals under caption Bharjari Oota unlimited meals for a reasonable price. Parking finding is a major issue. Located in the central place at Jayanagar near BDA complex.

This is the first time Im visiting this restaurant after the pandemic struck.The experience for me was very bad.The main reason for giving this rating is food was not of good taste like before and the service was horrible.I came to this restaurant today with my friends as I had previous experience of good tasty good here.I had to wait almost 30mins after my order to get my starter and again 30mins to get my main course, in the mean time I would see other table orders being served who came late after me.So it was almost 1hr after my order I got the main course.I had to repeat 5 times requesting for hot water.I had to wait 10mins in the end to get finger bowl.Was really upset waiting and thought to cancel the order and leave.I would never this place again and recommend not to visit.

Upahara Darshini is a nice, quick and kinda healthy option for a snack or meal when youre in the area. This probably is the quickest and best bet for if youre at Cloudnine for a visit.They have a pay and eat standing option thats pretty quick or there is also a service hall one level above the street.The food is pretty decent and nominally priced too.

Review №45

Though quality of food is ok and taste is ok.Ambience is horrible. Tables are not keep well., Floor is not swept properly.Staff tell there is labour shortage., But in these susceptible times of Covid hygeine should be given paramount importance and that is completely missing.They have deliberately switched off all ACs and operating only wall mounted fans.Lighting condition is also pathetic., Most of South Indian food not available except Dosa. Even basic soups like Tomato soup not available.We visited at around 6:00 pm in evening and such is the pathetic condition of this 3rd block Jayanagar restaurant.Jayanagar 9th block Upahara Darshini is much better.

WORST FOOD.. ordered masala dose and mini filter coffee from here. It was a tiny one with just one spoon of masala. The chutney was so watery they shouldve given it in a glass instead of a plastic bag. The mini filter coffee so mini that it was difficult to hold. The coffee was dilute and not upto the mark.

Few years back their hotel catched fire I believe its accumulation of people curse on them for serving worst quality foodToday I had been with my family around 2.45Dining area we were asked to sit quite next to toiletSo I came to self service area and decided to have food there. The place was horribly stinking. Due to the odd timings 3pm along with my aged mother I didnt want to roam around searching for another hotel hence we ordered food itemsRoti given in North meals is very special its upahara darshini black roasted roti . We managed to eat half roti and cant take more we left itWhen complained why theyre maintaining the place unhygienic with used plates tray in middle of eating area with all left over plates piled up one on another you get to see that while eating itAnd also about food qualityOne good thing the person is atleast humble one one query on food quality he said take some other item.. It should be appreciated but its not the way the hotel should operate . We didnt accept any other items we lost the mood and patience to have lunchFamily with kids aged people when were hungry coming outside with the belief a decent hotel that can be trusted to have lunch with brand name.. When they cheat people like this with worst garbage type dining. No cleanliness. No food quality..... You can think whats the big deal if you spend 500 and if its not good what big deal butFood items its more than money... its 5 rupees or 500 you should be running business to have basic food dharma when serving people....I dont know what food inspectors are doing with this type of hotelAvoid this hotel better eat in roadside hotels comparing to this at least you have visibility of kitchen. I wish let the history repeat itself what the agni did for this buggers few years back

The quality of this place is more like the monsoon rains - unpredictable. Sometimes they amaze me with their culinary offerings, and when I recommend it to friends, Ive been let down a few times. Overall the quality of North Indian curries is average. A few which have not disappointed include veg Kolhapuri, kaju masala and matar paneer. Few starters like chinese bhel and Spanish manchurian are good. Requires better supervision of the culinary choices and quality of the food which hotel offers.
