Ambience is very so-so. Had Mutton Kasa and Crab Curry and they were absolutely delicious. Its not authentic Odia cuisine though, more of a Bengali with Odia mix.

Very Good and awesome taste of every dishes.Finger licking Foods.Interior are very unique. Like Arabic and Royal.Also Odia foods are Awesome. Like Veg Thali and Non-Veg Thali.Specially Mutton Keema with Masala Kulcha tastes awesome.Prices are very good and Affordable.Staffs vare very polite and knowledgeable about foods.

Located in Patia, Bhubaneswar it offers local Odia delicacies. The interior is satisfactory (could have been better), though the tables are very tightly designed. Food offered is good enough. However more than traditional Odia cuisine, one finds more of Bengali food. Service is fair. Rates are in medium range.

Most of the menus are in Bengali and Bengali style foods.Not a single menu is a odiya authentic food.However, we odiyas do not have the terminology “ Sohala Ana Odiya”Our terminology is “ AME Khanti Odiya”....Please change the name Solo Anna Bangali

Truely a great experience of bengali cuisine. Wide selection of bengali Delicacy are available . Beautiful ambience to dine with family and friends . located at one of the prime location in the city of Bhubaneshwar. This restaurant is great for bengali people who are away from home and wants to taste bengali cuisine,which will make them remember about their home.A big thumbs up for Shohala Ana Odia.

I was disappointed.I had a lot of expectation from the external look and the way they have branded. But really disappointed after visiting.Menu: price on very higher side, better you visit Kaniks Restaurant of Mayfair. You will get five star food at this price. Or else you visit Dalma, Odisha Hotel or Juhar you will get better foods at a lower price.This hotel did tried to include Odia dishes but menu mostly have Chinese and North Indian. Poor thought given. Doesnt deserve the name.Quantity: Extremely disappointing. I have ordered for an Odia Bada Thali and I am surprised to see the quantities of items given. That wont be enough to feed a teenager. The saga bhaja given was just two teaspoon. (See the picture)Service: Dissatisfied, I asked the boy about the quantity, he said its their standard quantity, rice and dal can be given later but other items will cost extra. I asked him are you an Odia and whats the quantity of Odia side dishes that you normally eat in home. You should give that much quantity when you are offering a plate and charging exorbitantly. Shameless person said, sir you are right but this is our standard. I asked for their manager/supervisor he said they are on leave. Summary the standard is of poor standard.Quality and Cleanliness: Average. Dont keep any good expectations, if you are ever visiting there. One of the bowl I found stained of repeat using. Horrible. How can they give such a bowl. (Refer photo)Think again before you visit.

If you are a Bong and miss your homes food, this is the place for you.... Authentic Bengali and Odia foods are available here. The place aint cheap though. But gives a good quality for price although a bad quantity for price.... I also loved the way food is served here.... Had Prawn Malaikari, Pomfret Sorse and Ilish Bhape here with rice and Aloo Bhaja....

One can get good Odia/Bengali cuisine at this place.The food is quite good here. Do try out the mutton dakbanglow here... its quite tasty. Some of the dishes are quite good while some of them are too bad, like I ordered a plate of peas pulao which was quite tasteless and the other day I ordered fish paturi, believe me, I had my worst fish paturi at this place. Please dont try fish paturi here.This place also serves Chinese cuisine.Anyways you can visit this place and you can have mutton or chicken dishes out here.

Not recommended for Odia people. If you are looking for authentic odia then please dont go there. Fiki daal, fiki subji. Fish was good, but not worth the price. Biryani was not good at all.Quantity is so less, not even sufficient for one moderately eating person. The waiter tries to oversell on everything. Highly disappointed.

Good food if you like Odisha cuisin .Price of few items seems high when you know how less complicated the item.is and how cheap is the raw materials avaialble in local. But people who are unable to have odia cuisins at residence can enjoy good food over here.- mutton dakbunglow is good- rice and dal fry combinatiom is very tasty- fish paturi is average

Probably it was one of the best place to eat for any occasions. But few years down, the quality got degraded drastically. The fish they serve seems to be like frozen for over a month. Even after deep frying, it feels like something else if not a fish. The people who serves the dishes are not well acknowledged of the dish theyre serving. Some small misunderstanding might also get a bit troublesome and one orders something and then gets served something else. Hope they bring the best out of them like before as soon as possible.

If u want authentic Odia food, then this is THE place. However you need to have a knack for spices which not a lot of people do know nowadays. All the dishes had distinct flavours. Try all fish items and odia style mutton curry with plain rice. The quantity is a bit less. Tell them in advance to serve it with more gravy if you want. Ambience is decent. Service is good.

We have ordered Chicken dak bungla & pohala fish curry.. too much oily and masala.. fish was stale.. when we asked them they said its fresh and after when we asked the cook to taste and confirm he said there seem to be something wrong during preparation. They didnt even apologetic on this and we paid for the dish.

Name is pure odia. But system is bongali. Hence as usual with odia cuisine u will get best fish curry here. Food is pricey but tasty. Do have pabda shorish and rohi kalia there with a typical odia thali. Extremely satisfying taste there.

I am giving 3 star just because of taste. Food really taste great . But most irritating is rude staffs and not hygenic . so what what happened is the broze glass which was on table was dirty and had dust. So I asked the waiter to clean or get me another glass , he argued me no its not .I dont know whether there is any person who manages takes these things in note . so place food is tasty but cant comment on hygiene.

Authentic Odia cuisine. Chicken Kasa, Chingudi jhola, Patra poda bhetki are out of the world. Daber Payes , a Bengali cuisine served with shredded tender coconut is a must try. Thali consists of Rice , Dal, Badi chura, Tomato khata, Alu-Gobi ; In general thali could have been better in terms of Rice quality and choice of curries but as a whole its better than average.

Except 3 or 4 food items(Badi chura,saga,baigan Baja) ,I dont think it prepares anything Odia specific.Items like daalma are far away from India taste.I think name should be changed to Shola ana Bengali as foods are more likely Bengali.Restaurant is good ,but not for odia dishes.
