Little Italy

Indira Nagar ,Bangalore

Had a pathetic experience. Very rude wait staff - especially the manager (or the owner). The waiters kept on lying to us that our required table for 6 is getting ready (and it'll take 15 minutes). We waited for over 1 hour, and even then weren't allotted a table. When we complained to the manager, he was extremely rude and came off as quite a retard. Just imagine - he showed us the door, in case we weren't ready to wait any more.

Lilam Enterprises

Goregaon West ,Mumbai

@Beulah: This agency is not delisted so that customers like us read the reviews (which are really bad ), and refrain from using the service.

Chandrika Restaurant

Vasanth Nagar ,Bangalore

Nice location, ample parking space and okay-ish food nowadays. Earlier Chandni Chowk used to be one of the most revered restaurants for north Indian (especially Punjabi) food in Bangalore, but I feel the quality has gone down. The chairs are pathetic... as Kiran pointed. You just can't sit on the blocks of stone for more than half an hour. Music is a bit on the louder side. The funniest part is: The waiters here are mostly locals, sporting a turban and a trimmed beard to sport the punjabi look :D

Tinga Tinga Bar And Cafe

M.G Road ,Bangalore

Very nice place. Nice drinks, smoking section, cool lounge bar, not costly by bangalore standards... what else could you ask for on a Saturday evening?

Xtreme Sports Bar

Indira Nagar ,Bangalore

Xtreme sports bar offer 400/- buffet with free beer/vodka based cocktails and awesome rock. What else can anyone else ask on a hot sunday afternoon :D Beware, though... you will find some college guys totally drunk and occasionally puking on the floor.

Bflat And Highnote Bar And Dining

Indira Nagar ,Bangalore

On a cloudy sunday afternoon, this is the BEST place in Bangalore to be at! Absolutely lovely ambiance, though the food is just about okay. Ask for discounts on wine (we got 20% off on Sparkling wine bottles).

Hard Rock Cafe

St. Marks Road ,Bangalore

@sayswho: It's still much, much better than Hard Rock Cafe-Kuala Lumpur.

I've been there twice, and had two opposite experiences. Once it was totally awesome, the food was great and waiters friendly. But the other time I went there, the food was yucky and the waiters were all watching a T20 match, and refused service... huh!

German Bakery

Koregaon Park ,PMC

Can't understand why people are all ga-ga about this place. Maybe some people find too many firangis together to be an attraction. Seemed pretty ordinary to me, and the food was just about okay.

Impressions Slimming, Beauty And Wellness

Koramangala 4th Block ,Bangalore

Sincere apologies! My previous comment was for 'Inspirations' which is at Indiranagar (100ft road, above food world) and not for 'Impressions'. Thanks for pointing that out Ms. Anu. I think I would give Impressions a try, now that inspirations was a disaster for me :P And asklaila, please give users a 'delete comment' option to users.

The Tasty Tangles

Vittal Mallya Road ,Bangalore

a) Very nice ambiance. We went there on a cloudy windy afternoon, and it was really nice. b) Very good drinks as well. I was thrilled to see a restaurant (finally) which serves sparkling wine by glass. Alas it turned out they had it on their menu but not in stock. c) Very limited menu. Vegetarians can totally avoid.

Hyderabad Biryani House

Victoria Road ,Bangalore

Seriously, the-best-biriyani-in-town!

Impressions Slimming, Beauty And Wellness

Koramangala 4th Block ,Bangalore

How come everyone (apart from me :P) writing comments for this place has written only one review? Anyway, I didn't go there for weight loss, but for weight gain. Fraud place, if you ask me. In fact I lost a kilo after I was done with the program. They charge a lot of money, but I can't see how their weird techniques can work on altering weight. The only thing okay about the place was that they made me see the nutritionist (who was like >80kgs herself). Enter at your own risk!

The Ants Cafe

Indira Nagar 2nd Stage ,Bangalore

Very nice masala omelets, definitely worth the wait :)

Computer Shop

Brigade Road ,Bangalore

I bought an assembled computer there, and it was a pretty good experience. a) They have almost all parts available b) They assemble it within one and a half hours, including windows installation c) They ship it to your place within 3 and a half hours, which is a pretty damn good turn around time for a computer shop operating at brigade road :D d) Don't look around for accessories, if you're a gadget freak... you'll buy a LOT from here.

Dr. Nagesh Simha

Indira Nagar 2nd Stage ,Bangalore

Veterinarian: No not practicing: No These attributes are everything I wanted to know about the doctor. a) Whether the doctor I going to is not actually a dog doctor. b) Where he is not "not practicing" :D

Athena

HAL Airport Road ,Bangalore

Very nice place, the best music system in town. It's on the expensive side, but totally worth it!

Indi Joe

Old Madras Road ,Bangalore

Maybe the quality has gone down a bit. The chicken sizzler that I ordered was over burnt, and wasn't very tempting. The footfall was also lesser considering it was a Sunday. Anyway, the ambiance still continues to be good, but I wish they backed it up with some tasty food.

Wonder La

Mysore Road ,Bangalore

The best in India, at least the best in all the ones that I've been to. The water is very clean, place is well spread out, the variety and experience of the rides is awesome. It's ideal for couples and groups as well. But you have to pick which day you want to go there on. Most land rides will be started only when a minimum number of people want to take it. Weekdays, the crowd will be too less and you'll have to miss some rides. Sundays, too crowded. I reckon that leaves us only with saturday :)

Purple Haze

Residency Road ,Bangalore

This one is much better than the Koramangala one IMHO. The waiters are quite knowledgeable and know their customers. The music is LOUD, and one should not have any expectations of holding a conversation here :) I like the location of this place as well.

The food is just awesome here! Too bad they don't have anything non-veg.

Amogh jhooth bol raha hai, 'shukra hai, shukrawaar hai' :)

I've been here PLENTY of times, and never been disappointed! They make really good Parathas, which are cut in 4 pieces. Each paratha is a treat in itself and we usually order 6-7 parathas for a group of 4. Book in advance if you want to go there on a weekend as it gets pretty crowded. And yeah, Baskin Robbins is just a stone's throw away for desserts after your parathas.

Ah well... Just when I thought I've found a place to spend the V'day! Thanks Emma and Adam, will give it a skip :)

Blistering Barnacles

Indira Nagar ,Bangalore

First of all its name is "The Vil'age". The food was not quite up to the mark, but ambiance was good. Music playing was Kumar Sanu's 1990 era songs in case you're interested :) Meal for 4 cost us ~700, which is cheap by typical bangalorean standards for North Indian restaurants.

Indi Joe

Old Madras Road ,Bangalore

I would rate it two notches above the other Indi Joe (HAL). This one has a very nice ambiance, and the location is just right for anyone in east Bangalore. The sizzlers are usually very good (but I still like Yoko's more).

Copper Chimney

Residency Road ,Bangalore

And did I mention, they are half as pricey as compared to the other restaurants of the same genre near Bangalore central (Read Tandoor)

Copper Chimney

Residency Road ,Bangalore

A pretty good place for having north Indian food, but the ambiance could have been better. (Though, I like the outside seating arrangement). The food was nice, and anything Paneer is awesome. Do NOT fall for the 'happy hours' before 8, when you can get a choice of 4 starters for half the price. They are aweful. The staff is friendly, and make sure you have a good experience. I wanted extra 'tadka' in the dal tadkewali, and within 10 minutes, they got me a bowl of fresh made tadka. 4 stars from me.

Amoeba Sports Bar

HAL Airport Road ,Bangalore

Nice place, good ambience. They serve liquor on dry days as well (as per my 26th Jan experience) Music was not hip hop/disco/house/techno when I was there, it was pretty much the Himesh Reshammiya kinds. Don't go anywhere near the foosball table, it's 10 rupees per goal, just not worth it :) The air hockey table is years old, and rusted. The bowling alley is okay, but the length of pitch is like half of what it should be. Overall, you get everything you expect from Amoeba, but nothing what you expect from Leela :)

Star Relocations Packers & Movers

Bommana Halli ,Bangalore

They did an okay job of packing/moving and unpacking my stuff from Koramangala to Old Madras Road. 5 people had come with a truck, and the process was pretty smooth. But you have to ensure that your furniture is properly taken care of, because they'll be in a hurry and some scratches might be possible. Ensure that they get bubble packaging for all your glasses, T.V., fridge etc. Just a catch: I had negotiated for 4000/- but finally I was made to pay 4500/- as they won't tell you about the taxes beforehand. Also not to forget, the tip that you'll have to pay to all their workers :)

Sahib Sindh Sultan

Koramangala ,Bangalore

Everything was fine until I heard a pathetically cheesy announcement, 'Sahib Sindh Sultan express ab platform number 2 se jaane waali hai...' grrr

Umerkot

Koramangala 4th Block ,Bangalore

Okay, second comment about the same place. Wine is too pricey, and you can spend as much to get a glass of wine in Taj.

Amoeba

Church Street ,Bangalore

Went there over the weekend... The sports bar really looks like it was made to cater the audiences 20 years ago. With new XBoxes and PSs and WIIs coming in market... their computer games look paleolithic. The ice hockey tables are very old and need to be replaced. Also, these guys have increased their prices a lot in past 2 years and now each game costs you a minimum of 20 bucks (and it lasts for about 2-20 seconds). The bowling alley is good, and probably the best in India, they music is very loud... and you get a feeling that they desperately need a bar.

Food World

Indira Nagar ,Bangalore

All is fine with this supermarket, except for the fact that they have awful billing system. You will have to wait for 15 minutes no matter what you want to buy from this place. If plenty of people are shopping, then wait in the queue. If you are the only one shopping, then they make sure that no one is there at the billing counter as well.

Purple Haze

Koramangala 5th Block ,Bangalore

Kind of like an all men pub... If you go there as a couple, your girl is definitely not going to be thrilled :)

Been here a couple of times and was thoroughly disappointed. The prices are high, the waiters are rude, and the food is useless. They don't have a bar license but still have an elaborate drinks menu (if you ask for a kingfisher beer, it will be billed as mango fantasy or something). Overall a place to completely skip as you have much better options nearby!

Chicken biryani is also good, and these guys are fast. One of my favorite fast food joints in Indira nagar.

Domino's Pizza

Koramangala 6th Block ,Bangalore

For 3 years I had been ordering pizzas from this place at least once a week. (Reason: They helped me finish my food coupons faster, and the pizzas were okay-ish). But now as they have stupidly stopped accepting accor/sodex ho coupons, it's all over as far as I'm concerned. Pizza hut anyone?

Cookie Man

Koramangala ,Bangalore

Expensiveeeeee

Baskin Robbins

Koramangala 6th Block ,Bangalore

Nice little place to have ice creams on 80 ft road. Get your ice cream, and get on the road, because the place is a little stuffy. The ice creams are great, but then you gotta pay for the 'Baskin Robbins' brand :)

Dhingri methi matar... these guys make it so well, that you won't try it anywhere else in Bangalore. Although it's more known for it's non-veg food, the veg food is quite good as well. I don't quite like the ambiance here on weekends, too stuffy! And yeah, don't have the paan here for 50 bucks, just get out of carlton towers, and you will find a paanwala right outside :P

Barbeque Nation

Indira Nagar ,Bangalore

Excellent food, great location and costly place :) They serve buffet during evening time, but the barbeque starters they keep serving on the table (unless you stop them) are so filling, that you won't feel the need to get up for the main course!

Nice little place, with only vegetarian italian food(kinda weird :P), lots of wine, and amazing thin pizzas. A little costly, but then that's the price you have to pay for the pretty ambiance and delicious food. Try bruschetta and garlic bread as starters, with a glass of sparkling wine (oops, they serve sparkling wine only by bottle!).

Karvalli

Residency Road ,Bangalore

Awesome place to go if someone else is paying for you!

Landmark

Koramangala ,Bangalore

Great collection of books and music here... also a lot of household items and stationery. Well spread out on two floors, it also has a kids' toyshop. The only problem is... even though they have like 10 billing counters, it takes ages to get the billing done on weekends.

One of the very few places in koramangala for cheap liquor. The ambiance is nice, but the live bands which play there are pathetic.

Gramin Restaurant

Koramangala 7th Block ,Bangalore

Nice north indian food here. But then it's very crowded and don't even book a table on phone. And yeah, you get 12% discount if you take away the food.

Legends Of Rock

Koramangala 6th Block ,Bangalore

Nice pub! They play only old age rock (pre-95 era), so no linkin' park playing here. It has three floor seating, with the ambience getting less noisier with each floor. If you gotta have a conversation, go to the terrace straightaway.. Food is not it's strength, but it's music is... if you're into rock totally :)

The Forum

Koramangala ,Bangalore

The place is not as bad as birla commented :) On weekends, yeah... it's like a typical 'mela' out there, but otherwise the mall is well spread out (unlike Garuda), has a good parking lot and showrooms for the best brands. The mall is wi-fi enabled, so you can just sit on the stairs and work(!) if you have to wait for someone. Also, if you switch on your bluetooth, you'll get messages about which showrooms have sales and offers going on.

We tried these guys as caterers for our office. Really monotonous and tasteless food, which was less in quantity as well! But otherwise an affordable place to eat, and you could go there once in a while for en evening snack.

Fuga

Castle Street ,Bangalore

Well, now that dancing is banned in Bangalore discs/clubs, all the more reason to skip Fuga altogether.

Firangi Paani

Koramangala ,Bangalore

It's good to have a place in forum where you can drink as well as smoke :) The food is good, and the ambience nice. On Sundays they have karaoke nights, so beware of the noises that you might have to hear if you go there then :p Otherwise a good place to take your date, after you drop dead shopping in the Forum mall.

Bay Leaf

Koramangala 5th Block ,Bangalore

Nice food, but very costly. Also that it's quite cramped, the tables are too close to each other for comfort. But yeah, if you have a date in the evening, go right ahead... the ambience might just suit you fine.

Umerkot

Koramangala 4th Block ,Bangalore

Nice place, good food. And unlike Vineet, I think the service wasn't slow as well :)

The only real nice pub (dunno whether it's appropriate to call it a pub) near Indiranagar. Beautiful ambience, nice liquor, happy hours till 8 pm, and alright music.

Bangalore Central

Residency Road ,Bangalore

It doesn't have any shops... it's just one big mall

GK Vale And Company

Koramangala 5th Block ,Bangalore

Where do I go for unprofessional services?

The Lalit Ashok

Kumara Krupa ,Bangalore

Nice place for kebabs.

Domino's Pizza

HAL Airport Road ,Bangalore

Nice pizza place

Pizza Hut

Banashankari 3rd Stage ,Bangalore

Hello

Fanoos

Richmond Road ,Bangalore

Pathetic... absolutely pathetic.

Food tastes pretty sad and is very unhealthy 2 of my friends fell sick after eating here.

I hate the place because they serve only veg food. Hate their thin pizzas and some of them or not loaded with cheese and are crispy. The only issue is that the road is so crowded and becomes very noisy if you sit outside.

Barista

Kodi Halli ,Bangalore

Isn't this barista more expensive than other baristas?

INOX

Magrath Road ,Bangalore

I am actually one of those who like the movie experience@ INOX than that at PVR. The costs may be too high, but you can get one ticket free with one on thursdays with your manhattan credit card. My rating 5 out of 5!

Fuga

Castle Street ,Bangalore

Overrated, overpriced, and just not worth it!

Crossword

Residency Road ,Bangalore

The best part of crossword:: It get's you parking on residency road :)

Fanoos

Richmond Road ,Bangalore

Fanoos! The smell there makes me puke, and guess what, it smells even when you happen to walk the nearby road. :-/ Have been there twice, and I swear by god, I'm never going there again!

Where is this showroom?

The Blue Bar

Race Course Road ,Bangalore

Arguably the best pub in bangalore, and probably amongst the costliest as well. Have an incidence to share when I went there for the first time... We had to pay cover charge of 1500/- to get in (and the doors opened to Blue bar, as well as Ginger restaurant). By the way, they let in only couples/family. We decided to spend the evening at ginger, and after a hefty bill of 3500/- the waitor refused to take the 1500/- coupons (of cover charge)! So folks, when you get in Taj, remember that it's blue bar where you have to encash your coupons :) Well, the ambiance, the food, the drinks they serve are just great! The stewards are so smart (and intimidating, hehe). But overall a very nice place to be, 4 out of 5 stars from me!

Red Bamboo Shoots

Museum Road ,Bangalore

Nice place to have chinese food... ambiance could have been better. It's costlier than most other chinese restaurant@ church street though. Agree with Renjith... vegetarians don't like this place much. But then, veggies only like pure veg restaurants :) 4 out of 5 stars from me!

Pecos

Brigade Road ,Bangalore

Serves only beer, just like pecos! Wine and whisky lovers... avoid!

Nothing great about this movie theatre except its location. And of course, if you don't find parking on M.G. Road, this is the place to be... 10 rs for a full 3 hours :p

Zero G

Residency Road ,Bangalore

This place absolutely ROCKS on wednesday (bollywood) nights! DJ Hussain plays some great foot tapping hindi/punjabi numbers, unlike the hip-hop/house combo in most other discs. The place is located on the 10th floor, and with the cool breeze blowing near the bar, you just can't help dancing :) And some film stars also visit this place when they come to bangalore... Shamita Shetty is coming next monday Food:: Average Drinks::Costly (naturally) Crowd::Decent Music::Hindi/Punjabi on wednesdays, house on other days Ambience::Nice, pleasant

Beautiful ambience, nice music, and a perfect place to spend with your girlfriend ;) Just be a li'l careful, as you can spend too much too easily!

Taika used to be good, and that was like 2 years back, but since it has renovated, I don't find the same energy or the same crowd there anymore. They don't even have the cover charge anymore now which you could redeem once you're in, but an entry fee of 200/- (on weekends it's 300/-).I was never too fond of the music there... The only saving grace is it's awesome chicken kebabs :)
