I got the unlimited thali on Sunday which came with a heap of different veg curries, along with white rice, fried rice, poori, papadum, pickle, payasam, and gulab jamun. Everything was fresh and tasty. I also got a plain dosa which came with sambar, coconut chutney, peanut chutney, and tomoto chutney. The dosa was really good - great flavour and the chutneys were very tasty. Service was prompt and the interior was really clean and well set up. Overall it was a good experience from a vegetarian only south indian restaurant.

Visited Sri Anand Bhawan with a group of five and had the chance to try a wide variety of dishes from the menu. Overall, it was a great experience with generous portions, authentic flavours, and very reasonable prices. The standout for me was definitely the steamed idli. They were incredibly soft, light, and fluffy—literally like pillows. Some of the best idlis I’ve had. The Mirchi Bhaji was extremely spicy, which is exactly what you’d expect from the dish, and it was absolutely delicious if you enjoy heat. The Hakka Noodles were another favourite—packed with flavour and cooked perfectly. The cheese dosa was also really enjoyable, while the masala uttapam was soft, tasty, and well made. We also tried the filter coffee, tea, mango lassi, and chocolate milkshake, all of which were excellent. The chocolate milkshake was especially rich, creamy, and delicious. The Andhra Spicy Masala Vada had good flavour but was a little drier than my personal preference. The masala dosa was nice overall, although I found the potato filling a bit too runny. We also ordered the South Indian Thali, which just wasn’t something I could personally relate to in terms of taste, but that’s purely a matter of individual preference rather than the quality of the food. Considering we were a group of five and ordered such a wide variety of dishes and drinks, the pricing was very reasonable and offered great value for money. Overall, a fantastic place for authentic South Indian food with plenty of variety. I’d happily return to explore more of the menu and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for delicious vegetarian Indian cuisine.

Sri Ananda Bhavan CBD is such a hidden gem for authentic Indian food! Absolutely loved the fresh flavours and wide variety of dishes. The dosas were crispy, the chaat was packed with flavour, and the sweets were delicious too. Great place for a quick meal or casual catch-up in the city. The staff were friendly and service was fast even during busy hours. Definitely one of my go-to spots in Melbourne CBD for comforting Indian food. Highly recommend!

I’m delighted to share my awesome experience at Sri Ananda Bhavan, during my my trip to Melbourne, about two weeks ago. It’s the right place for anyone who appreciate South Indian food. All the food items are prepared with best ingredients because the food was so deeply aromatic and nicely packed with flavour. Here one can have delightful Indian Vegetarian cuisine. We tried their Rava Dosa, Uthapam and South Indian thali alongwith filter coffee. All the dishes were bursting with flavours. Besides their food quality their presentation was also appreciable. The service rendered by their team with a sweet smile on their face was very friendly and making us feel welcome. In my view, it’s the best Indian Restaurant in Melbourne and I have no hesitation to refer and revisit again in future as and when I will visit Melbourne again, Keep it up!👍👍

Had an amazing South Indian feast right in the heart of the city at Shri Ananda Bhavan CBD ✨ Located in Melbourne CBD, this pure vegetarian spot serves authentic flavors that truly feel like home. We explored items from their City Menu and were genuinely impressed by the quality and taste of every dish. Here’s what we tried: • Madras Filter Coffee • Jigarthanda • Nimbu Soda • Milagai Bajji • Aloo Tikki Chaat • Chilli Idly • Veg Manchurian (Semi-gravy) • Szechuan Vegetable Dosa • Andhra Spicy Gongura Masala Dosa • Executive Thali • Puran Poli From spicy, tangy street-style favorites to comforting thali goodness, everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully balanced. What we loved: ✔️ 100% Pure Vegetarian ✔️ Jain options available for most dishes ✔️ Exclusive Executive Thali — perfect for office lunches ✔️ Catering available for functions and gatherings If you work in the CBD or are simply craving authentic South Indian vegetarian food, this place is definitely worth visiting. We’ll be back! 📍 Shop 4, Rear of/500 Bourke St, Melbourne VIC 3000
