Food is very delicious. But that's about the ONLY positive, much as I'd like to add more. The staff are courteous, but the efficiency (& consequently the service) SUCKS big time. Had an EXTREMELY BAD experience picking up food on 10 January 2025-
I placed an online order at 6:55 PM for the following (1 order of each item):

Veg pakoda
Plantain bajji
Samosa
Poori/ aloo masala
Onion Rava Dosa

The online system indicated the food would be ready for pickup in 30 mins (i.e., 7:25 PM).

I reached there at 7:35 PM. My order was not ready; I saw a Rava Dosa on the griddle & was told my order was almost ready. Meanwhile, a family member requested ONE additional item, a Rava masala Dosa. I was told it would take an additional 25 mins. I said ok, assuming I could be out by 8 pm.

Mind you, there was NO crowd there; it was just me, & after a few mins, another person came in & ordered a few items.

That person had his order completed in about 20 mins & went his way, while mine was still "Work-in-progress"! With difficulty, I gritted my teeth & waited there, with an unpleasant smell wafting in from the seafood section nearby.

In between, a Doordash or Uber Eats person came & picked up an order that was already packed & ready to go.

Finally, at 8:25 PM, a FULL 90 MINS after I'd placed my order online, my order was given to me🤦🤦

I simply cannot fathom the reason for such inordinate delay in preparing my order! Extremely inefficient & super-slow, considering the fact that there was absolutely no crowd there; the only customers apart from me were the other person & the Uber Eats guy.

Come on, does it take 90 minutes to prepare the items I ordered???!!! To top it off, there was no apology; while taking delivery of my order when I asked about the delay, there was just a casual "Sometimes when we're busy, it happens, sorry" with NO real intent to apologize. You were"busy", with 2 people's orders to fulfill??!!!

By the time I got home (just 20 mins away), the food was stone-cold.

I will NEVER, EVER order here again. I've never experienced inefficiency to this extent anywhere else.

I very strongly suggest that folks better be prepared for such an experience in case you choose to order food for pickup at Sai Saravana Bhavan.

Vegetarian options: Food is tasty, but that alone won't take the owners very far. If their efficiency doesn't drastically improve, they're not too far off from having to shut down shop.

I will not recommend this restaurant as today I have very bad experience. We ordered naan which were frozen from deep and they charged $2 per naan. And I ordered food to the girl who after taking order ask me go away, as in this way I am unable to see that they are giving me frozen food . The Chana masala I ordered is also frozen. They are not making fresh vegetarian food .

Sai Saravana Bhavan offers a delightful array of Indian dishes. The paneer tikka is a standout, and the biryani is simply amazing. The ambiance is warm and inviting, and the service is top-notch.

This restaurant takes you on a culinary journey through India. The chicken tikka masala and garlic naan are must-tries. The atmosphere is cozy, and the staff is friendly. Perfect for a family dinner or a casual meal with friends.
