Hotel Saravana

Reliable, pure-veg comfort food right by the temple/seafront circuit. Breakfast flies out hot--fluffy idlis, crisp ghee roast, pongal with a generous ladle of sambar, and vadas that stay crunchy. Lunch "meals" on banana leaf are the highlight: rice, sambar, rasam, kootu/poriyal, appalam, curd--the whole South Indian spread, with quick refills. Dining hall is clean, turnover is fast, and prices are sensible for the location. Filter coffee is strong and finishes the meal perfectly. What I liked: consistent taste, quick service even when it's busy, fresh chutneys, and a family-friendly vibe. Could be better: peak-hour crowding (expect a short wait), tight parking in the lane, and a slightly noisy hall at lunch rush. Good to know: cash/UPI usually accepted; ask for less oil/ghee if you prefer lighter tiffin; chutney/sambar refills are happily given--just ask. Tip: do the sunrise point first, then come here for breakfast before 9:30 am to beat the rush. Secret tip: if available, order the "mini tiffin" (a little of everything) or ask for a bowl of hot ghee on the side--transformative with pongal or dosa.

The taste of the food is so good I tried Veg fried rice and Veg manjurain dry was really Good The serving skill of Nithish is very good

No one took order for 15 mins. Need to go to counter and ask for order. Food is average, not tasty. Size of uttapam is very small and charges are very high. Not worth overall. Don't get confused with sarvana bhavan chain.

I had a very disappointing experience at this restaurant. The service was extremely slow, and the staff was outright rude when we asked for assistance. To make matters worse, the onion pakoda we ordered was half-cooked and unappetizing. It's clear that both customer service and food quality are not a priority here. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone

We just came out this hotel leaving half the stuff un-eaten. Ordered idlis vada and Pongal for breakfast, All item served were cold , basic practice in food industry to serve hot. All items are overpriced too. The taste was ordinary, I would not think of recommending this place to anyone.
