Annapurnam Banthi Bhojanam
2.5
A traditional veg Banthi Bhojanam with a good poornam and flavored rice, but slow service and average curries reduce the experience.
1 October 2025
I visited Annapurnam Banthi Bhojanam near the Hitech City Main Signal. This place serves only pure veg Banthi Bhojanam meals.
One of the first items that stood out was the Poornam. It was crispy on the outside and sweet inside. I liked it enough to ask for an extra serving, but unfortunately it never arrived.
The Chapati was soft, though the aloo curry served with it felt average. The flavored rice tasted good and worked even better when mixed with the raita.
The brinjal curry was bland, while the sambar was just average. The curd was slightly thick.
A nice touch was the variety of three different appadams, including mirapakaya and gumadikaya vodiyalu, which added a bit of uniqueness to the meal.
The main issue was service. It felt clumsy and slow, and we had to repeatedly ask the staff for items that should normally be served promptly.
The total bill came to ₹1099 for three meals (₹349 per meal).
