Flavoursome food, vegan-friendly - Edit
I was pleasantly surprised to see a sign welcoming vegans on their door during my recent visit in November 2019. Nice to see they are becoming more vegan friendly - if you're vegan, inform them to omit dairy, ghee, paneer. (altho I thought that paneer falls under dairy, but better to be safe!)

Been told that staff are currently trained to be able to communicate better in English.
All dishes were flavoursome. I just wished the portions were slightly larger. It felt like a single size portion.
Very extensive menu, so you'll be spoilt for choice.

amazing, flavorful food & accommodating staff! - Edit
Stumbled upon this place after getting off the bus station & wow I was pleasantly surprised. For someone that is sensitive to oil & salt, the staff was very accommodating to my preference and came out with a delicious tasty, flavorful aloo gobi masala!

I've traveled to India and this food was way better than a lot of restaurants I've tried over there. Definitely recommend for some awesome indian food!
Pros: tasty, delicious, flavorful , accommodated less oil & salt , great staff
Cons: none!

Good South Indian food - Edit
This is quite a busy restaurant, with fast (and VERY attentive!) service. They refill your daal very quickly! We ordered some of their North Indian curries (very fresh vegetables and excellent flavours), uttapum, dosa etc. Good Indian food. Very good daal which comes with most dishes. This is our South Indian family friends' favourite in KL.

Best Indian food in KL - Edit
We've been here several times and most times, the experience is great. It is true that the service can sometimes get on your nerves - for us it was more the hard sell - trying to get us to order more than what we want. Just tell them no and they get the point though.
Read moreThe restaurant is very clean, well maintained and spacious with plenty of natural light - an Indian cafeteria type vibe, if such thing does exist!?
During our most recent visit we were the only people in there, but it was a weekday and not lunch time. We've been there when they were quite busy, so don't be fooled - they certainly do have a loyal fan base.
The reason we keep coming back here is the food. It's simply wonderful! Certainly the best Indian in KL and the standard in KL is not too bad. Yesterday we stopped in for a dosa and a thali. The dosa was impeccable - you can taste the fermentation in the crepe and it's so thin and crispy, cooked to perfection. The accompanying sauces are all out of this world - well above what we've tried elsewhere in both freshness and flavour. The thali was pretty well perfect too. The sambar and rassam were delish, as were pretty much all the other samplings. We don't eat of lot of dairy but decided to eat the yogurt dish included - and wow, it was soooo nice - sour, creamy and fermented to perfection. If you're going to splurge on dairy, this is the place to do it - it's almost certainly home made and full of all the right kinds of bacteria.
I think the quality here may vary a little bit according to when you go. We've had thalis here previously that were only just slightly above average. The most recent one was perfect in every way, so there may be a bit of luck involved. Either way though it's never bad so there's not much to lose.
They also have a good selection of Indian sweets. We picked up a few for our next flight - as with all Indian sweets though, they are VERY sweet and made of ghee and sometimes milk, so not exactly healthy. Ok occasionally and in small doses, depending on where you sit on the whole dairy debate.
I want to give them 4.5 cows but can't so will give them 5 to counteract the 2 cows given by a previous reviewer, which is definitely not appropriate. People rave about Sangeetha in KL - that place does not begin to compare with SB.
Pros: fresh tasty indian food, clean and spacious, great selection
Cons: service can be pushy, quality can vary a bit
