If you are looking for the ultimate Benne Masale Dosae, then you don't need to look beyond CTR. This is an old joint, with the yester year furniture still around. The signature dish is Benne Masale Dosae - don't bother to count the calories as it can spoil the taste of a near perfect dosae. Must go.. don't be misled... More

There are possibly loads of Darshini's who serve comparable or even better stuff but are just unsung. This place serves routine South Indian tiffin that is good but with a very moderate ambience and a not so great service attitude. If it is 50 M from you are, do step in for a snack. Dont go searching for this place.... More

Benne masala dosa available here is one of the best in Bangalore. It is so crispy and just melts in mouth. Though the taste has not changed, they have reduced the size of dosa and increased the price. The Mangalore bajji is a good combination with dosa.

Highly recommend the benne masala dose... Crisp, golden doses with perfectly seasoned aloo playa and chutney followed by strong filter coffee. I assure you I'll come back for more.

The butter Masala Dosa is one of my favorite. The taste hasn't changed and is same from past so many years. Do not expect anything from the atmosphere or ambiance and visit just for food. If you are a foodie then you should try this place. Also the Kesaribhat in the mornings are out of world.

Don't go for the seating or ambiance, just go for the food. If you are a foodie give every item on the menu a try. You will find yourself going back over and over again.

CTR is the default destination for BMD. Its iconic status is so high that once you visit this place, whether you like or not wait staff would invariably ( ofcourse why not) offer you the delectable piece de resistance of the culinary offering at this joint ie Benne Masala Dosa: that is so unique and tantalizingly inviting for the uninitiated...

Its the kind of place that someone would travel long distances just to eat their masala dosas. Crisp and crunchy with the perfectly spiced Sambar, it is recommended that you wash it down with their first class filter kaapi.

This place is a hotspot in Malleshwaram (Bangalore) for people wanting to eat plain dosa, masala dosa or butter masala dosa. Even the Mangalore Bajjis are yummy! The best thing about dosa here is that it is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. I have been here several times and taste is always perfect and consistent. This... More
