Our family came for lunch and it was very busy. Veg Thaali, veg pakora, masala podi dosa , plain roast and onion uthappam and filter coffee were our orders. Everything was perfect and authentic and the service was warm and homely. I would suggest to all to experience the courtesy of the people.

Filter coffee was good, served in Bangalore-style steel tumblers with the frothy top.

Actually, went for their special thali but now Weekdays thalis is only available in weekends lunch time. So we ordered alot of items from the menu and everything was worth it. We ordered : 1. Bangalore Masala Puri : (Expected this to be pani puri minus pani but this was more like chickpea chat) 3.5/ 5. 2. Dahi Puri : (Was definitely a 4.5 / 5). 3. Puri Saagu : 2 puris served with chutney and aloo Mattar curry was super soft and yummy. 4 / 5. 4. Cut Mirchi Bajji : this is Chilli fritter cut into bite sized pieces not so spicy served with onions and a spice mix sprinkled on top. Superb again for the crispy factor. 4/5 5. Set Dosa : Soft and yummy dosas served with curry and chutney again 4.5 / 5 6. Button Idly : ordered this for my 3 year old, 10 mini idlis, served with lots of ghee, I was so happy to see my daughter finish the plate within minutes. 5 / 5. Absolutely loved everything tasted and will be at Malgudi Cafe again for sure. Overall : Service + Food taste + Ambience 5/5

Tried vegetarian breakfast this morning at Malgudi Cafe — a wonderful experience! We had Pongal, Medhu Vadai, and filter coffee, and everything was very tasty and truly authentic. The ambience, with soothing Carnatic music, beautifully reminded us of the warmth and nativity of South India. Special thanks to the Manager, Mr. Vamsi Krishna, for his excellent hospitality and for making the experience even more pleasant. A perfect way to start the day. ☕🌿

Just ordered a large catering order for Medu vada with a tray of chutney and sambar for a group of 100 people for a corporate event. It was a 40 mile drive from the restaurant which was delivered on time. Vada was really really good hot, crispy and fresh. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed it. Thanks to Malgudi cafe management for maintaining high standards in taste and hygiene.

I absolutely loved the place! The food was amazing, and it was served with such warmth and a genuine smile. Bansi Krishna was incredibly polite, exuding so much kindness and hospitality. The Bangalore masala dosa and filter coffee were by far the best I've had—made even better by the fact that the coffee beans were sourced directly from Karnataka's coffee plantations. Truly an enjoyable experience!

This place has a great ambiance, making it an excellent choice for Indian vegetarian food lovers. The aesthetic decor adds to the overall experience. I particularly enjoyed the podi idli, dosa, pongal, and bisi bele bath. However, the cut mirchi wasn’t very impressive. If you’re feeling very hungry, the thali is a great option to consider. You’ll especially love this place if you’re looking for delicious food at a budget-friendly price. Don’t forget their filter coffee and masala tea it’s the best Updated : this is my favorite place but trust me the quality has been lowered Still love the dosa but others the puri saag was not good for almost last 3 visits

Revisited Malgudi Cafe multiple times in between and continue to be impressed by their authentic and quality of their South Indian food. Every dish was flavorful, comforting, and reminded me of home-style cooking done right. The dosas were perfectly crisp, the sambar was rich and aromatic, and the chutneys tasted incredibly fresh. The hospitality and service were equally excellent—warm, attentive, and welcoming from start to finish. It’s clear the team takes pride in delivering a genuine South Indian dining experience. If you’re craving authentic South Indian cuisine, Maligudi is absolutely worth a visit. Highly recommended!
