Awesome and great tasting south Indian food! Good service and very friendly and welcoming! Rassam soup was out of this world delicious - maybe that's why it didn't show up in the menu, like a best kept secret! Certainly worth a return visit!

Very authentic South indian restaurant and the best part, it's vegetarian!! There is always room for improvement and this is no different for them too. Rasam was a tad bit salty and badam milk had extra cardamom. They have mentioned at the entrance that due to covid their chefs have not arrived yet so that explains why all the items in their menu are not available. Hope to go there again when they are fully functional.

open only in the evenings. apparently they are waiting for the chef from india. Limited menu but all the important items are there. running little short staffed but the people who are there are running around to serve everyone on time. ambience is okie. i guess the whole restaurant is not done completely due to covid. the food was good. good flavours just like India. wait time is a lot cos of limited seating.

Awesome place for authentic South Indian food. Visited for dinner and fell in love with the same taste I have in Chennai. Hospitality was awesome. The place was busy but got my seat in 10 mins of waiting time. Must visit place.

Ananda Bhavan was our family first trip here. We were a large group of 13 people and since they don’t take reservations we did a walk in. We didn’t have to wait long during our walk in. The tables and chairs were clean and they were able to move some stuff around to get our entire group together. Service: The service was good and fairly fast. I think some of the servers were new so when we asked some questions about the menu they had to go back and confirm. I like that. I would rather they confirm with the experienced staff there as opposed to randomly saying yes and no and food order gets messed up. The utensils: I am from an Indian background so I understand the symbolic meaning behind serving your customers in a steel plate. But I think one has to realize that steel plates and glasses leave lots of water stains and calcification marks. I think one of their major competitors switched to white plastic dishes as white shows less so people complain less. Anyways, it’s nasty to serve your customers especially first time customers with these dirty utensils. The food: Amazing. Honestly between the servers and the ambiance and the food this place was a hit. There was zero mistakes or mix up with our orders and everything tasted excellent. We tried the Masala Idli and the Rasam and man, I have never had such crispy and tasty idli. It was amazing. I think this place has so much potential and I am sure they will get there some day. They just have to make sure about the little things especially the plates and glasses you give your customers. If you see it’s dirty when you are putting them on the table then you should remove it right away without the customer showing you. I will definitely recommend this place if you want to try something new, quick and where you don’t have to wait weeks to get a reservation like Guru Lukshmi. P.S : Don’t forget to try the Madras Coffee after your dinner or with it.

Had dinner with family last evening. Very good server. Very hospitable. Explained thoroughly. Food quality great,just took Very long to come on the table.. Very sad to hear that the student servers dont get their tips. Its getting sad to see our Indian students getting exploited by Indian employers. Pls make it a point to a Give cash tips to the servers here. We have to discourage the employers from taking the tips..

Quality of food has improved great from last time we came here which was their first week open. Still inside place looks bad with no interior and concrete floors . Even the freezers are empty . Still same excuse after 8 months the chef cannot come due to covid . World is open

Visited here as we always loved our experience at the Indian outlets Chennai and Bangalore . The place is nice and spacious .. neat as well . The steel glass didn’t look super super shiny but alright .. we ordered mini tiffin which was good and very filling for an adult . The rava masala dosa was really crispy..impressive. The filling though .. I requested for it to be spicy and was told the same but it wasn’t followed .for compensation I got ghee podi masala separately charged 1$ for the same but it actually helped and elevated the taste to next level u go gunpowder . My husband had masala uttapam which was really nice and yumm. The sambar was not super impressive like India’s A2B but it was still on a yummy note . The filter coffee was nice as well . Overall experience was alright . One can definitely try here once

Amazing authentic food, this place beats any other South Indian rest. hands down. Had chettinad idlis and pav bhaji dosa, the taste and freshness is simply A class, the spice levels are appropriate. Well done Anand, keep up the hard work !!

We are vegetarian, and loved the food at A2B. Must go place if you like dosa and sambhar! Much love to the mendu vada and pongal which was part of the mini tiffin. My 17 month old son also loved the pongal . Also if you have a sweet tooth must try the mysore paak. I was pleasantly surprised with how amazing and fresh it tasted
