Reviews for Adyar Ananda Bhavan in Brampton, ON
It's wonderful to have such a great SOUTH INDIAN restaurant now! Adyar Ananda Bhavan serves amazing South Indian... delicacies! The dosas are crispy to the max, and I recommend the Ghee Roast! The idlis are soft and delicious, and theChettinaad Idli is a MUST for spicy foodies. The service is okay, and the ambience is fine. However, the cups in which theygive water are very dirty so watch out for that. The bathrooms are neat, but last time we went, the paper towel dispenser wasnot working. Therefore, this restaurant deserves 4/5 stars, and I definitely recommend it. Read more
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! Read more

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 dueto covid . World is open Read more
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 Indianstudents getting exploited by Indian employers. Pls make it a point to a Give cash tips to the servers here. We have todiscourage the employers from taking the tips.. Read more
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 thatdue to covid their chefs have not arrived yet so that explains why all the items in their menu are not available. Hope to gothere again when they are fully functional. Read more
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 isa lot cos of limited seating.

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 somestuff around to get our entire group together. Service: The service was good and fairly fast. I think some of the servers werenew so when we asked some questions about the menu they had to go back and confirm. I like that. I would rather they confirmwith the experienced staff there as opposed to randomly saying yes and no and food order gets messed up. The utensils: I amfrom an Indian background so I understand the symbolic meaning behind serving your customers in a steel plate. But I think onehas to realize that steel plates and glasses leave lots of water stains and calcification marks. I think one of their majorcompetitors switched to white plastic dishes as white shows less so people complain less. Anyways, it?s nasty to serve yourcustomers especially first time customers with these dirty utensils. The food: Amazing. Honestly between the servers and theambiance 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 thisplace has so much potential and I am sure they will get there some day. They just have to make sure about the little thingsespecially the plates and glasses you give your customers. If you see it?s dirty when you are putting them on the table thenyou should remove it right away without the customer showing you. I will definitely recommend this place if you want to trysomething new, quick and where you don?t have to wait weeks to get a reservation like Guru Lukshmi. P.S :) Don?t forget to trythe Madras Coffee after your dinner or with it. Read more
