our group of 4 loved our south indian breakfast at Garden Cafe in Ooty. Each dish was delicious - uttappam, podi idli, dosa with chocolate teas and coffee... each of us cleaned our plate and ordered a repeat. The waiter was prompt and friendly, and we hardly minded the obscenely expensive Ooty prices since at least this food is worth... More

We were two families and we visited here after sight-seeing around 5:30PM for some snacks. We actually went to Sidewalk Cafe and that was opening only at 06:30PM, hence opted for the coffee shop in the same complex. The place was good, a small lawn outside with chairs, colorful flowers, the ambience was also good. The food was a mixed... More

I was in Ooty in 3rd week of May. After going through TA report, we decided to visit Garden cafe restaurant. This restaurant is in Nahar's hotel complex. Hotel complex has a parking (don't know whether restaurant customers are also allowed ) We ordered Uthappam & Dosa (cheese & cheese masala). We didn't like dosa. It is big let down.... More

You get fleeced for some good food in this hotel. I would think they have different menu cards with prices of the season and for off season. Very expensive and portionf sizes are small. But the food is good.

I personally feel that this restaurant in ooty is too much hyped, i do agree that this is one of the best restaurant to have food while in Ooty. in fact the restaurant claims that they prepare the best idlis, which is absolutely wrong, being a south Indian, i can vouch that there are better places which can doll out...

Enjoyed the hotel and its atmosphere. Wow - after three days got a great tasting south indian filter cofee only here. Dosas, Idly and pooris are simply great. A place not to be missed for having a great south indian dishes

We wanted to go to Chandan restaurant, but it was closed at that time and so ended up eating here. The food is pathetic and the service is verly slow. Hubby had some chats and fell sick :-(. the next day's plans were ruined because of this. Avoid this at all cost!!!

this is the place where you can enjoy real south Indian food. Specially I like Mysore masala dosa. the test of dosa was best in my life time.

If you are in the mood for good south Indian snacks, this is the place for you, especially if you have kids. The dosai varieties are great. They have the usual repertoire of south Indian snacks along with kid pleasers like pizza (which is really not good but keeps kids happy). The chaat was disappointing though.
