agashiye - the house of mg

this place need no introduction. which one of the city's landmark place. this popular restaurant is located in old city.
so we went this place to celebrate our first anniversary. i am happy to announce that this place isremarkable in terms of food, food experience ,hospitality, the location everything was top-notch. however it is very heavy on pocket ,it's an experience and i can guarantee you will get authentic taste ofgujaratidish over here.

they have multiple restaurant among them against aghashiye south unlimitedgujaratithali. where the other restaurant greenhouse alacarte menu.

we opted forgujaratithali. in the appetizer we had fresh watermelon juice which was natural and having no added sugar. in thegujaratithali we have dhokli nu shaak, parval nu shaak, bataka ni sukhi bhaji, vedhmi,dahi vada, keri no ras, samosa, dhokla, kadhi ,bhat ,dal, chhas.

the samosa and dhokla were extraordinary good. keri no ras having no added artificial flavours or milk. my favourite dish was vedhmi ( also known as puranpoli) which was having fillng of anjeer.

overall i have satisfying experience of havinggujaratithali with authentic taste.also note down there that every item has proper temperature to enjoy the meal. show the juice and buttermilk were cold but not chilled so they have maintain the tempreture very well so we can enjoy all the dishes..even in the dahi vada the curd was at proper temperature.

i will highly recommend this place....

agashiye, agujaratiterm that translates to ‘at the roof’. the restaurant is located at the top floor of the heritage hotel located in the heart of the city. the interiors of the restaurant emanate all the vibes of near independence era with large size charkha, bell metal artefacts, jute chairs, fountains with floating banana leaves and red rose petals, crafted bull heads.

at the entrance i was greeted by the staff who asked for my preference for thali out of the two available options viz. heritage classic in kansa thali and heritage grand in silver thali. while i was reading the items offered in each thali, i got perplexed and i turned to the staff for suggestions. the staff reply candidly “if you are less hungry, try the kansa thali, if you are very hungry, try the silver thali”. i laughed away and placed an order for a kansa thali.

as the name goes for ‘the heritage classic in kansa thali’, the food is served in bell metal (kansa) utensils. a royal experience begins when three servicemen approach your table each carrying different serving utensils containing varied items and each of them pours the offerings on your plate. there are 22 items included in the thali; the best ones to have are-
•bataka vada
•panodi
•rajasthani bataka
•fangavela kathol
•gujarati dal
•khichdi with ghee
•makai chat
•desi chana, tameta, keri
•mugdal siro (sweet dish)
•kesar pista ice cream

yes, i a hard time finishing all of it, and all of it was worth it.

the experience doesn’t end here. what followed to complete the lunch was a pan peti comprising pan leaves, and six quadrants in a box containing cloves, coconut and other items that would make a pan. to conclude the visit, at the table itself they brought a pitcher and bowl made of bell metal for washing hands.

as i finished dining, those three servicemen who served food, stood in a line and thanked me.

the experience at this restaurant is something i would cherish for long. thanks to the management for the amazing hospitality.

i loved agashiye.we chose this silver thali as i wanted to taste everything on menu.the staff dere is so warm & curtious n they make you feel welcome.they don’t rush you while eating unlike other buffet restaurants.
now the food,they explained everything they served.the starters,maincourse & desserts all were amazing.i am in love withgujaratifood.
i loved the halwa,kadhi,aam rass,dhokla,some daal wali sabzi,dahi bhalla and anjeer icecrream which was prepared in house.
yes it’s expensive than most of the restaurant but trust me it’s worth it.

we had dinner last night. i read such rave reviews about this place and i was highly disappointed. they gave makkai rab instead of sherbet for dinner. there was nothinggujaratiabout this thali, so many vegetables available in winter and they were serving paneer, palak, potatoes and american corn with green pepper sabji. i have had better thalis on the highway. they had written dahi wada on the menu and served fried patra with bit of dahi and chutneys they keep on the table. bhakri was super hard and so was that paratha. methi wada wasn’t that great either. why are they not serving what’s in season and cooked the propergujaratiway?. a four star hotel restaurant serving such pathetic food, ruined our evening. the dhoklas, i almost forgot how terrible and half heartedly they prepared this staple snack. the dhokla were given tadka with just mustard seeds. couldn’t taste the hing, no chilies, coriander, sesame seeds or curry leaves. those masala bataka barely had any type of seasoning. please save your precious time and money. go to a local small business and get a thali. your taste buds will thank you.

superb experience, the food is awesome. if anyone wants authenticgujaratithen agashiye is the place!

food was average, not upto the standard of agashiye. we have ordered few times before but this time it was just an ordinary. not autheticgujaraticuisine both in taste and quality.

one of the best place to experiencegujaratifood with rich of tradition. restaurant is a heritage in itself.

excellent food quality and taste no one can beat agashiye bestgujaratithali.

this place is like i can’t describe in words that much amazing in quality ambience and food but service issues may bit their this place serve bestgujaratiauthentic thaali must try this is one of best part of world heritage city ahmedabad 🔥

an amazing experience on the rooftop of an nicely kept heritage property. gujaratithali was not the top notch but if you combine it with over alls it was a good experience

how has this place become ahmedabad’s premiere food spot? it was lousy. for the price of 4gujaratithalis elsewhere, they serve you half the varieties. out of which, half the things are dumped on the table for you to help yourselves. the area where we sat was set up like an outdoor wedding tent in a party plot. the wait staff was infuriatingly slow and condescending; one manager actually said “the service is slow so you can savour the food,” when nothing had been served yet! he asked to savour the salad! the taste is painfully mediocre. the utensils are blackened and dirty. what an absolutely waste of money and a mealtime.

it's place for royalgujaratidining,as it's place where pm modi and china's pm jinping had there dinner, price is quite higher ,must visit place for food lovers and modi fans .😂😂😂

if u likegujaratifood , it is best place for you . ambiance is good. food is also great. it is full of historical significance and u would love the care of people

agashiye is a fine dininggujaratithali restaurant. the restaurant is located in the heritage property of house of mg. the ambiance is amazing especially the terrace dining. i was here for dinner last weekend with family and had a good experience. coming to the food, they serve only two types of thalis, kansa (bronze) & silver thali - both of them priced steeply at ₹1195 & ₹1695 respectively.

the service is as courteous as it can get and quick. if you are expecting lots of bowls in the plate, i'm afraid you won't see that. i had muthia & patra along with kadhi and dal. one of the best muthias i've had. the welcome drinks were pretty good and so was the chaas. curries include val, chole & karela and all were pretty good on taste. on the desserts front, had rajwadi boondi, mug dal halwa, koprapak and mishti doi. all were pretty good.
thali with a very balanced taste.

all in all the restaurant is pretty good and gives you a great dining experience. however, having eaten at so many places, i felt the pricing is definitely on the higher side considering just thegujaratithali.
however one visit is a must to experience thegujaratihospitality.
