Bengaluru's food scene is catching up to Mumbai fast. There are so many new places, cuisines, and dining styles popping up that it's hard to keep track. Meat-eaters have always had lots of options, but vegetarian food in Bengaluru has come a long way too, and it's not just thalis and dosa counters anymore. A new wave of pure-veg restaurants is doing fancy plating, global flavors, all without meat, egg, or fish. Here are four spots worth trying right now.
If you want real sattvic food, no onion, no garlic, Sattvam is the place. It's spread across a few floors with lots of natural light and greenery, and it has a big sattvic buffet plus an à la carte menu built around spices instead of heat. The sattvic biryani is a must-try, along with the dahi bhalla and dal makhani.
Price: Around ₹2000 for two.
Moai has become the go-to vegetarian spot in Jayanagar. It has a cozy, café-style feel and a menu that takes street food and makes it a bit fancier. The garlic podi masala bhel and Andhra chilli paneer are the two dishes everyone orders. It's also great for dessert, with a Nutella hot chocolate and tiramisu frappe on the menu.
Price: Expect to spend around ₹3,000 for two.
This spot won this year's EazyDiner award for Bengaluru's best vegetarian restaurant. It takes street food favourites and turns them into shareable plates. The creamed burrata aloo chaat and chilli cheese dimsum are the standouts, with a chilled strawberry kheer for dessert. It's also opened branches in Indiranagar and Forum Mall.
Price: At around ₹1,500 for two, it's one of the more affordable picks here.
PHURR should be at the top of your list if you visit Bangalore, with art-inspired plating and a space that's hard to get a table at. The menu has some fun combos: black corn nachos with pear salsa, curry leaf paneer tikka, and Andhra chilli broccoli.
Price: Cost for two is around ₹1,800.
