Andhra Pradesh Bhavan on Postcard

"Traditional Andhra Breakfast at AP Bhavan Andhra Pradesh Bhavan (or AP Bhavan), as the name suggests, offers traditional dishes from the state of Andhra Pradesh. AP Bhavan is absolutely packed on weekends with lines of 100+ people waiting for an authentic taste of thalis and biryani. The space is more like a canteen instead of restaurant and an unlimited thali will cost under $2/person. Biryani is served on Sundays, but visit by noon. There is very little elbow room past 1pm."

"Delhi’s favorite thali restaurant is a bustling, raucous affair that dishes out more than 3,000 plates a day. Andhra Bhavan brings home-style cooking from the South Indian state of Andhra Pradesh — the home of some of the spiciest food in the country — to diners in the capital. Get a thali, which consists of rice, pooris (deep-fried flatbreads), and two kinds of lentils, along with fragrant sambhar (lentils cooked with vegetables) and the spicy tamarind soup known as rasam. Like other thali specialists, the restaurant offers unlimited vegetables, as well as chutneys made from beetroot, yam, and okra. But it’s the spicy, peppery fried lamb that’s essential. Go on a Sunday afternoon with an empty stomach (custom demands you eat several portions and finish everything on your plate) and the courage to wait in line. It’s well worth it.

Food tastes great, especially non-veg. Vegetarian options are less, mostly thali. The canteen is crowdy all time but managed well. As per my colleagues, non-veg biryani tastes great. Rates are slightly on the higher side but within economical limits. Overall 4.5 stars. Hygiene practices may be improved.

The Breakfast which includes one Idli, Masala Dosa, Mendu Wada and choice of tea or coffee is simple and quick! Tasty as well. It's like an all inclusive breakfast, well planned and service is super quick.

You have to come here to eat the traditional food of Andhra Pradesh. The food here will make the people of Andhra Pradesh feel the food of their home. The food here is very simple and tasty, I liked it very much specially Hyderabadi chicken dum biryani. The food is tasty and simple for both vegetarians and non-vegetarians.

Biryani is different, I would not say the best but won't go again just for the sake of taste...It depends on which type of biryani you like...South Indian thali indeed is a great choice with unlimited refills. The quantity of biryani is quite less for price Rs 300

Amazing place to have unlimited Andhra meals at very nominal price in the heart of Delhi. Expect waiting time in weekends for lunch as the crowd gets really long. However the staffs here handle and manage the crowd very well especially, the senior staff member. You can buy packed meal also which is sufficient for two adults. Price was gone up in recent years. In 2019, it was Rs 120 and now in October 2024 I paid Rs 200 for a meal. Taste, authenticity and quality is maintained .

Andhra pradesh bhavan is a great place in terms of providing Andhra food. One can take all Andhra foods be it Andhra thali or biryani or fish curry. Taste and aroma are really superb and amazing. Foods are mouth watering. Only one negative aspect is one need to wait for few minutes specially during lunch time. Overall recommended place. 😊
