Awesome environment. An absolute delicious meal we have today! We love the way the food is served, always heat up, fresh and presentable. The staff is very friendly and attentive to request. That is why I always brought my family here every weekend.... Look at empty plates, that is good enough to explain how delicious it is for us.

A visit after so long.. Yes, I came for the egg briyani. 😅 It's a flavorful plate of briyani. A bit pricey.. But, I do LOVE the ambiance over here. 🥰🥰 No harm in eating here once in a while.. P/s : Popular spot for both local & tourist.

Sri Ananda Bahwan Restaurant left a very positive impression on me from the moment we were seated. The servers were quick and attentive, taking the time to explain the menu clearly, which made ordering easy and pleasant. Service was impressively fast, and our food arrived without much waiting, even though the restaurant was fairly busy. The fried rice stood out for its quality, made using premium basmati rice. Each grain was light, fragrant, and well-cooked, resulting in a dish that was simple yet very satisfying. The naan bread was another highlight, served warm, light, and tasty, perfect for pairing with the curries. The roti telur was equally excellent, with a nice balance of crispness and softness. We also ordered the potato and broccoli vegetable dish, which turned out to be an eye opener. It was creamy, comforting, and surprisingly flavourful. The mutton curry was another winner, with tender meat in a rich, creamy gravy that wasn’t overpowering. To end the meal, the apam manis was light and refreshing, while the lassi had a pleasant sweetness without being too sour. Overall, it was a very enjoyable dining experience, and I definitely look forward to trying their banana leaf rice and exploring more dishes on the menu in the future.

Bold statement but actually think I had the best rice and curry today. And I’ve eaten a lot of rice and curry on my travels. Had tofu too and the guy was helpful with the food

Had an amazing experience at Ananda Bhavan! The food was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. The dosa was crispy, the curries were rich, and everything tasted authentic. Service was quick and friendly, and the place was clean and comfortable. Great spot for delicious Indian food. Definitely coming back again.

I had a wonderful dining experience at Sri Ananda Bahwan, Perai. The food was fresh, delicious, and full of authentic South Indian flavours. Every dish was prepared with care, and the service was friendly and efficient. A special highlight was the Kesari dessert—soft, fragrant, perfectly sweet, and a delightful way to end the meal. It was truly one of the best parts of the dining experience! If you’re looking for tasty Indian cuisine, generous portions, and a welcoming atmosphere, I highly recommend Sri Ananda Bahwan Perai. As I run my wellness and massage shop nearby, Sri Ananda Bahwan, Perai has become one of my favourite places to eat. I come here often because the food always feels like a comforting home-cooked meal. It’s delicious, satisfying, and always makes me feel right at home. A special thank you to all the staff—from the managers, cashiers, servers, and kitchen team. Everyone is always so friendly, caring, welcoming, and attentive, making every visit a pleasant experience.

Simple and nice place for indian food. Plenty of seatings available and friendly staffs. Slightly overpriced.

​The food and drinks were actually good, but the service was totally disappointing. Specifically, the young guy who was serving water had a very bad attitude. It felt like he doesn't know how to do his job properly, or he simply dislikes working there. His lack of interest was clearly visible in his behavior. ​He doesn't welcome customers properly, nor does he take orders in a polite manner. He doesn't even stand and listen to what we need. We were a group of three people sitting at the table, but he just asked one person for water and rushed away immediately.He doesn't even interact or communicate properly with the customers. This is a very bad attitude from the staff at Sri Ananda Bhavan Restaurant, especially that one particular server. ​Furthermore, we had to repeatedly call out for staff to get anything done. It’s not that they were short-staffed, but shouldn't the available staff be attentive and serve the customers properly? Many other customers around me were equally frustrated. Honestly, today morning was my worst experience at Sri Ananda Bhavan. The way they handle customers is highly disappointing. They are very prompt in collecting the money, but they fail miserably when it comes to customer service. I don't understand why their behavior is so poor

Came here for tea time, enjoyed their tea time choices thoroughly. There were a few varieties of snacks to choose from, being a vadai lover, I first tried their vadai and it did not disappoint. Also tried their samosa and some sweets which was pretty good. Chai was delicious, will definitely come back when I come to butterworth again. 🙂😋

We had our brother’s ROM celebration at their hall upstairs. The space is comfortable yet abit small. The atmosphere is clean and tidy. The food catered by them was too god and delicious. I would say a 9/10 and those complimentary food are also superb delicious. Definitely would recommend them for catering. Price is reasonable and the service was top notch. The workers are friendly and super helpful throughout the event. All went smoothly. Thank you!

I had an excellent dining experience at Anandha Bhawan, Butterworth. The food was exceptionally authentic, rich in flavor, and truly reflected the quality of traditional cuisine. Every dish was freshly prepared and absolutely delicious, making it well worth the money. A special appreciation to the staff for their outstanding service. They were courteous, attentive, and highly professional throughout our visit, ensuring a pleasant and comfortable dining experience. Overall, Anandha Bhawan delivers both exceptional food and excellent customer service. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for authentic cuisine and a memorable dining experience. I look forward to visiting again.

The flavors of the dosai, vadill (i hope i got the name correct), was fantastic. Once you enter, sit yourself and a waiter will come get your order. They serve food within 10 mins which is super fast! While there isnt air conditioning, it can get quite stuffy inside. Also, hopefully they can improve the toilet situation just a little bit. Other than that, food is good and pricing is reasonable!
